The Way Things Work

Chapter Thirty Five

"Harry be a dear and grab me a water?"

"O-Of course." He slurred. When he left the living room she ran to her bag an pulled out a video camera. She placed it under the television on the mantel and set it to record. "Here you are my dear, shall we?" He gestured to the bedroom.toward the bedroom but she shook her head. 

"Here." She pulled him over to the couch. 

"Here?"

"Yes." She pulled him close a she laid back on the couch. She knew exactly what she was doing thanks to the lack of alcohol, Harry on the other hand had no idea he was being recorded. 

"Good morning my love." Louis chirped in your ear. 

"Yay!" You turned to him. Your eyes had fluttered immediately open because you had gotten a full nights rest for the first time in a while. Last night Louis had assorted the pills before you went to bed so that no one forgot this time. 

"What's up buttercup?" He smiled cheekily at your glee.

"It's Saturday! The start of our weekend!"

"We can check in at one! I already told management for us and you told Sarah that you were taking a break?"

"Said and done!"

"Great! Finally, nothing to hold us back! It's eleven now babe, you ready?"

"Of course!"

"Okay, I'll leave in an hour then you wait a half hour and follow, sound good?"

"Yep!"

You and Louis ran around frantically packing until twelve when he kissed you good bye. He left directions for you to give to the driver as you headed over to Sarah's. 

"Hey babe!" She pulled you in.

"Hey Sarah! How are you today?"

"I'm good. Why are you so happy my dear?"

"No reason. A full night's sleep helps I guess."

"A full night? Really?"

"Yep! Louis made sure of everything last night!" 

"Wow, he's good." She laughed.

"Not as good as you though babe." You smiled.

"Then tell me something. Why did you move out?"

"Oh Sarah, that wasn't cause of you. I wanted to give you more space with Liam and since he and Eleanor broke up-"

"They really did?"

"Yeah, she was cheating on him with Tony."

"Oh my."

"So that's why. I'm tired of being your burden."

"Babe, you could never be."

"Really? I feel like you are just saying that."

"No, I mean every word of it."

"I love you Sarah."

"I love you more Sam, now go have fun on your weekend off." She smiled as you headed out.

You hopped in the black car that awaited outside but when you got in you weren't alone.

"S-Simon?"

"Hello dear." He turned and gave the driver instructions.

"H-How did you know what hotel I was going to"?

"Because I know that you're seeing Louis."

"Am I in trouble?"
