Secrets

Chapter 35

We all walked back inside his house. We all sat down the table when I saw that Louis already had our food here. I smiled a little. I think it's so cute how he's being about tonight. It makes me even more happy that he's mine. I sat down next to Louis when I felt him place his hand on my leg like he usually does. I stayed quiet while we all ate. I don't get why I just get shy around new people. I know it won't be like this forever. I know I'll get used to being around Harry. I know him and Louis are good friends and I'm not going to be one of those girlfriends that keep their boyfriends from their friends.

I know Louis and Harry were talking but I wasn't paying much attention to what they were saying. I felt Louis' hand start to move up my leg. I looked up at him when I noticed that he was still paying attention to what they were talking about. I felt him start to move his hand up a little more. I put mine on top of his, intertwining our fingers like that. I finished up eating before leaning into him. I felt him squeeze my hand a little as he finished up eating. I looked at the clock and saw that the dance was about to start. I know it's fine to show up late. I mean I usually do. I looked out the window and saw that the sun was almost set. I felt Louis pull his hand away from mine, wrapping his arm around my waist. I looked up at him and I noticed him smile, "Are you ready to go, love?"

I nodded, getting up. I grabbed everyone's plates, placing them in the sink. I felt Louis walk up behind me, grabbing my hand. He intertwined our fingers as he kissed my cheek, "Let's go, love."

I can't help but smile. I love how he treats me. I'm happy he's mine and no one else's. This is why I just want to be with him. I just love the way we are together. We walked outside before he walked me over to Harry's car. He pulled his hand away from mine, wrapping his arms around me, "I'm sorry I can't drive you there with me, love."

"It's fine. I understand why."

He pecked my lips, "Harry knows my plan for tonight."

I smiled a little, "I love you."

He smiled, "I love you, baby."

Before I could say anything he leaned down, kissing me. His lips were so soft against mine. I moved my arms up around his neck, messing with his hair. He pulled away sooner than I wanted him to. He smiled, "I'll see you soon, love."

He pecked my lips one last time before he pulling away. He opened the door for me before I got in. He closed it behind me. He looked a little upset. I feel bad about this. I want to be showing up there with him. I know we can't though. I know it bothers the both of us that we can't just be completely open. I saw him and Harry talking. I'm guessing that it's about tonight. After a couple minutes Harry got in his car and started driving. I hate how shy I am. I've hardly said anything to him. I feel kind of bad about it but I have no idea what to even say to him. He mumbled, "I kind of wish Louis would have told me how shy you are."

I looked over at him, "He didn't really know."

He nodded, "I hope you know he really loves you."

"Really?"

"Yeah, I've never seen him around a girl like he is around you. I can tell by the way he looks at you too."

I smiled to myself. I knew he loved me. It makes me feel better that he loves me and people close to him can see it. I wish everyone could know that. I want to show people that he's mine. I know we can't but I hope we can soon enough. I noticed that we were already at the school. I noticed that the parking lot was already crowded. I saw a bunch of people walking inside. Harry parked the car before we both got out. He walked over to me and started to reach for my hand. I pulled it away, looking up at him confused. I don't understand why he's trying to grab my hand. He smiled, "C'mon, Louis said he wants us to look like we're here together."
