Punk series: #13 He reveals something about his past

Louis: "This is the life." Louis said, flopping face down onto the queen size hotel bed as he smiled at you. "I can't believe we're actually doing this." You mumbled, sitting down on the bed next to him. His arms wrapped around your waist as soon as you sat down, pulling you to lie practically on top of him. "Do you regret leaving?" You shook your head, you needed an escape and it felt perfect that Louis suggested the idea of this get away. "I'm overjoyed that we got away. I'm just sick of everyone back home judging us when they have no right. And, besides, I think it'll be amazing to spend some time alone with you." Louis smiled, his fingers threading through your hair. A comfortable silence fell over you both, allowing you to close you eyes and relax for the first time since the fight with your father. "God," Louis said, breaking the silence, "You're so beautiful, Y/n..." You blushed but didn't reply, simply opening your eyes and smiling at him, reaching up to tug his hand out of your hair and intertwining your fingers together. "Can I, uh, ask you something?" His voice was timid as he spoke, making you question if this was actually the bold, strong man who you called your boyfriend. You nodded. "Is this," he paused to motion between the two of you. "Love?" Biting your lip, you shrugged, feeling suddenly self-conscious for some odd reason. "Y/n, baby, it's just me. No need to act differently. I just, I don't know what Love truly is." "Have you even been in love before?" You blurted out the question before your brain could even catch up to you and you immediately regretted saying it. It wasn't any of your business about Louis' past relationships. He, this time, shrugged, shifting his eyes to the window behind you to avoid looking at you. "I, um, I don't really know. I was with this girl, Tamara, and I thought she was the one. I really did. But, anyways, this was before all these tattoos and piercings and I was more open then. I didn't have to hide myself behind these things or shield my feelings from everyone." Louis paused, trying his hardest to contain his sadness because he really didn't want to have a break down in front of you. He was supposed to be making you feel better about your dad being a dick and he didn't want to upset you by making you see him cry. "I thought she was nice. She used to be the school slut but, when we got together, I believed she would change and only want to be with me." "Lou," You interjected, not knowing if it was because you didn't want to see him cry, which you could tell was inevitable because his eyes were already becoming glassy, or because, though it seemed completely selfish, you were jealous that he had once been so in love with someone who wasn't you. You figured that it was both options. "You really don't have to tell me this, if you don't want to." "I want to." He said, "I think that you deserve to know the reason that I'm always such a jerk even if I try not to be one. I completely believed she would change but she didn't and I didn't know that until she mad me the school idiot. That experienced changed me because I lost my virginity to this girl because I thought she loved me when she was only using me. Being with you feels different but, I think, it's a good difference." "That's because I'm not using you like she was." He nodded, his fingers, once again, brushing through your hair. "I know and I've never been as happy as I am right now, and that's all because of you." His thumb stroked your cheek as he smiled at you, leaning in to press his lips to yours in a love filled kiss. "Thank you for that..."

Liam: "Is this really where we're saying?!" You asked, still in shock from the sight of the 4-star hotel. Liam nodded, smirking at your adorable reaction. "Only the best for my girl," He grabbed your hand and pulled you from his car, your bags being tugged along in his other hand. "Normally, if I was alone, I'd be at a crappy hotel but I wouldn't want you to deal with that shit." "Why would you pick a crappy hotel to stay at?" You asked, entering the hotel room and sitting down on Liam's lap when he lied on the bed, sprawling out on top of it. "Wouldn't want to waste the money on me but I'd gladly spend the money on you." "Why?" He shifted beneath you, sitting up slightly to wrap his arms around your waist and rest his head on your shoulder. "Because you're worth it, baby. It's amazing to see how excited you get just by seeing this extravagant hotel. This is probably the nicest place I've even stayed anyways." "What's the worse?" You said jokingly, not actually expecting him to give you a real answer. "Jail. It's definitely awful there..." His voice was firm as he turned his head slightly, pecking your cheek to reassure you, of what, you didn't know. "What have you been arrested for before?" You asked, slightly weary of his answer but you wanted to know more. Liam sighed, gently moving you off his lap to sit next to him, turning his body to face you. You noticed that he looked awfully tired with deep bags underneath his eyes. "Mainly assault. One time it was public intoxication but they let me leave the next morning so it wasn't that bad." You inhaled deeply. Sometimes it seemed like Liam had different personalities; he can easily go from your cuddly, loving boyfriend Liam to a harsh, violent man who seemed nothing like the man you loved. The one thing that you liked about that harsh Liam was his need to protect you and make sure that you're safe no matter what. "Hey," He said, tilting your chin up to see him. "I'd never hurt you, you know that, right?" You nodded and he let out a sigh of relief before continuing. "I'd never hit a women and the only thing I want to do is protect you. That's why I had to fuck up Jake because that asshole didn't deserve you, hell, I barely deserve you but I'm trying to be the best person I can be. There were nights where I'd get so drunk I couldn't remember anything but I'm done with that shit. Honestly, you're the best thing that's ever happened to me and I'll be damned if I fuck this up."
