The Start of Something New

Chapter 18 - I promise.

Louis' P.O.V.

Actually, we all wanted to go to the city today. But everything changed. Niall stayed at home with Phie, because of her accident. Harry, Liam and Zayn were in studio, again, to repeat some lyrics of the song. Because they thought they were too bad. So, there were just Li and me left. It was 9am when I drove to their house and rang at the door. Li opened. "Hello, Mr Tomlinson! Are you ready for shopping?", "Yes, Mrs Malik." She hugged me wobbling, because we hadn't seen each other for a few days. Maybe about a week. Just since Phie got out of hospital. Whatever. "So, where are we going to shop?", "Don't know. We could drive to Hastings? It's a little city at the sea. And it's too beautiful.", "I know. Phie was already there.", "Really? Great! And? Do you want to?", "Yes! Anytime!", "Okay, then take your things and we start. It will take about 3 hours." Li took her things and went into the car. More or less a bus. The One Direction bus. Then we started.

"Wow. It's an awesome view!", "Yes. I really adore this place. It's perfect to turn yourself of and just chill out." We talked and laughed a much. It was already 1pm when we both got hungry and decided to go in the city. "What do you want to eat, Li?", "Pommes!", "Pommes? What are Pommes?", "Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot. It's german for chips.", "Haha. Okay. Then let's go Pommes." German. I thought about that language a few times. But I thought, it was much too hard to learn it. Or maybe I was just too lazy. Yes. We went in a little restaurant. More or less a chip shop. After eating, we went shopping. Okay. I never imagined shopping could be that boring and on the other hand that much exhausting. Actually, Li was really impatient. But when it came to shopping, she was really patient. "So, how long do you want to stay at this shop?", "I have finished now. I'll just pay this shoes and then we can go to the sea again and finish our day." Wohooo. She was going to finish her shopping marathon. Also, it was already 4pm. We drove to the sea again and sat down in the sand. "This was a great day! Thank you Louis!", "No, I have to thank you. Just because Harry, Liam and Zayn thought they didn't sing that good, we had to drive alone. But I really enjoyed the day. So Li, tell me. You and Zayn. Are you sure?", "Yes! I am. I mean after we kidded you-" She said what? After they kidded us? "Wait, wait, wait. What do you mean with 'After we kidded you'?", "Erm.. I.. Zayn.. erm.. sorry. Zayn and me.. Actually, we were just friends until the day in the amusement park. That was the official day, when we became a couple.", "What? And why did you kid us?", "We couldn't hide our feelings for each other, but it was too complicated." I couldn't believe it , but I tried to understand what she said. "So.. um.. that means, Zayn and you aren't a couple?", "Yes, we are. Since the amusement park. Sure, he is 5 years older than me but I think this isn't a big problem, is it? I mean.. I truly love him. Actually I'm not that type of girl who love to be taken, but it's okay. I can't forbid my feelings." Now, I understood all. They were not brave enough to tell us, but it was okay. "And what's with your friends in Germany? Do you miss them?", "Don't ask. I miss them quite too much. Especially my best female friend.", "Don't you have a male best friend?", "Erm.. No, not really. Why are you asking?", "What do you think about having one super famouse boy as boyfriend and one of his super famouse mates as best friend?", "Oh Louis, you're too adorable. Sure! Also, you are the only of you 5, I can just be myself with. Because you're as crazy and silly as me." Li and me understood each other really well, she was right. We had nearly the same character. I really understood Zayn loved her. We talked about 2 hours, took some pictures and laughed a lot. It was already 7pm, when we drove home and 10.20pm when we arrived. Because Li's feet hurt, I carried her.

Zayn's P.O.V.

It was already 10pm and Louis and Li weren't home, yet until suddenly the door opened. "Fasteeer! And upstairs! I will show you the book." Okay? What was that? Lou carried Li and they didn't notice me anymore? I was confused and wondered, why she didn't say hello. I really looked forward when Li would come home, because I wanted to stay at their home tonight. But now? I decided to go upstairs. The door was slightly open. I looked trough the door crack and listened to them. "Oh my gosh, how cute is that? You still have it all?", "I didn't trashed anything. I'm still a Directioner who is fangirling all day. It's just, that I can fangirl with the One Direction boys for real and not just hearing the music or read the Twitter stuff.", "Li, you are too adorable. That is true support. Thank you a lot." Louis put his arm around her and hugged her tight. I meant, I wasn't jealous, well, just a bit, but since when Lou and Li were best friends? "Okay my beloved bloke. I will give you the book. It's a present. From me to my best friend. Therefore, you have a memory of me.", "Thank you a lots, babe. That means a lot for me. Wow. A real Directioner book." They were so intimately. I interrupted them. "Hey beautiful. Hey Lou.", "Heeeey, favourite!", Li yelled smiling and ran towards me. I lifted her up and swireld her around. I gave her a kiss on her cheek. She blushed a bit. "So, why haven't you said hello to me earlier when you entered the house?", "I'm sorry. I wanted to show my beloved my A Life As A Directioner book." Beloved. Wasn't I her beloved? Ah. I forgot. I was her favourite. But it was a bit weird, that she called another boy her beloved. "Actually, I wanted to surprise you!", "A surprise! Uh! I love it!", "Yes, I'll stay here this night.. Maybe we can watch films together?" Louis looked a bit confused. "I'll let you alone, guys. Night Li! And thanks for that awesome day!" He hugged her again and left the room. "Now we're alone..", Li smiled cheeky. Gosh, I loved her.
