Mr Bump - A Louis Tomlinson fanfic

Chapter 13

~Clara's POV~

"Wake up, sleepyhead." A soft voice crooned from above me, and I moaned.

"What time is it?" I mumbled, still unable to open my eyes.

"Half 3 in the afternoon. We're alone in the house, again. I think my mum's trying to tell me something.." Louis trailed away, chuckling to himself.

As I heard him laugh, I remembered everything from last night, and I swooned. The romantic park, how we admitted our feelings, the sweet kisses and giggles on the walk home, stumbling through the door, being unable to keep our hands off each other. And then..

"Louis.."

"Yes, love?"

"What happened.. last night?"

He chuckled softly. "Nothing, Clar. I let you sleep, you were completely wrecked. That doesn't mean you didn't want it to happen." He said, his voice thick with implications. 

I finally fluttered my eyes open, to be met with his gorgeous ones. I would never tire of them. He smiled, and pecked my forehead softly.

"Finally. I thought you had died or something, Clar Bear. I missed your eyes." 

I blushed, still a little uneasy around him. Something felt odd, but I couldn't put my finger on it. 

"C'mon, I'm taking you shopping today. Since we didn't get to go the other day." He murmured, kissing me again.

"Alright.. Thanks. Let me just take a shower first, Lou." I replied, getting out of bed. I stretched, retrieved my phone from the bedside table and scurried out of his room. I finally risked a look at my phone, and my heart jumped at the sight of 7 new messages.

Of course they were all from Craig.

From: Craig

Is it because of what I said last night? (Sent at 15:02)

I scrolled through the texts, confused and a little wary. Why was he so clingy? Did it never cross his mind I was asleep? I decided to stay away from him for a bit, and concentrate on my feelings for Louis. Just as I was about to put my phone away, another message caught my eye.

From: Craig

I know you're asleep and this is why I'm sending this.. Seems easier. I actually like you. Crazy, right? I don't know if it changes anything but I just thought it was easier if I told you. Like you said, Louis is probably a lovely guy. Anyway. I just haven't talked to a lot of girls before, you know? Right. I'm going before I make a total arse of myself. Just get back to me, please? Night again, beautiful x
