You Found Me

Chapter 16

Chapter 16 (Play the video on the side while you read;) )

The boys and Hanna took off, so now it was just Louis and I waiting for the limo to arrive. When it finally came he helped me inside, and the tension in the car was killing me. How could I have not spoken? 

I'm such an idiot. We don't say anything. We're sitting next to eachother, close- but not touching.

I feel so stupid.  He glances at me every now and then, faking a smile. I can see it in his eyes whenever he lets me look at them. He's avoiding that awkard eye contact thing I guess. 

He rolled down the window, letting the cool air touch his face. The wind running through his hair. 

The whole way was almost completely silent, as well was the walk to the hotel room. 

 "After you." He said. I half smiled, walking inside. "When do you think they'll be home?" I asked. 

He shrugged, "Could be a couple hours. Harry and Niall like to party." He said, standing in the doorway of his room.

"Are you going to sleep?"

He shook his head, "No. I was actually going to shower first." He said. "Yeah, I was gonna relax a bit before I slept too." I replied.  "Tell me if you need anything." 

I nodded, walking off into the room next door. This hotel room seemed like a freaking apartment or something. 

I sighed, sitting down on one of the couches in the room. "What did I do.." I muttered. 

I have to call Hanna. She'll know what to do.

I grabbed my phone, dialing her number. It rang a couple times until she finally picked up. There was all kinds of loud music in the background.  "Hanna?" 

"Emily! Hey, how are you and Louis? Since you two have the place all to yourselves." She chuckled.

"What- Hanna are you drunk?" I groaned. "Me? No" She said sarcastically.

"Look I have to tell you something." I said. "Okay hold on let me go somewhere quieter."

The noise in the background was now faint. "Alright, what's up?" She asked. 

"Well..okay. At the party, Louis and I walked out to the garden-" I began.

"Uh huh?"

"It was nice you know, just us. I couldn't stop smiling."

"Is that all?" 

"No, Hanna.- He said something to me." 

"Oh.." Hanna mumbled. "He told me he loved me."

"Oh my god! And what did you say!?" She shouted. I was hesitant, "That's just it..I didn't say anything. I was standing there like some idiot! and then Liam came..and.." I stopped speaking. 

"Are you crazy? How could you not have said anything? You told me you loved him too!"

"Ugh, Hanna I know. I don't know what came over me. I just couldn't say it back." 

"So you don't love him?"

"I..I do. " 

"Then what the hell happened back there?"

"I think I was just scared.." I muttered.

"you know what I said earlier. What if this isn't real? It's been two months."

"Emily, listen to me. Do you feel that it's real? If you love him, tell him. Don't tell me and then change your mind. It doesn't work that way. Look inside yourself. It's simple, it is. Do. you. love. him?"
