The Chatroom

Chapter 16

The ride home was a silent one, a comfortable one this time. I had no clue what me and Niall were, an item, friends with benefits, friends? But I really didn't mind. One thing that I did mind was one thing or shall I say person, in particular kept popping into my head. Harry.

What was I supposed to tell him? I mean, I had sex, maybe he wouldn't take it the wrong way. I mean it was just a one night stand. I will just talk to Rachel about it and hopefully she will tell Zayn to tell Harry, if she and Zayn didn't just have a one night stand. 

I took out my phone and texted Rachel.

Hey, can we talk later? xx

I pressed the send button as we pulled into the driveway of my house. I walked to the front door and waited for Niall to open the door. He opened the door and handed me my keys to the car. I was greeted by an overly excited Louis, who pulled me into a bone crushing hug. 

"Oh my gosh! I missed you so much! You have no idea how much! Oh my gosh!" Louis yelled as I hugged him back just as tight. "I missed you too. And we have a lot to talk about. I mean, you are one of my best friends." I whispered in his ear. He nodded and we simultaneously  pulled away from the hug. I walked up to my room and closed the door. 

I went through my closet to my secret hideout and started putting things back into my room. Not everything though, just the dirty clothes. You never know, I might have to go back down there. I started separating my clothes and put them in the washer. "Louis!!!" I called throughout the house. "Yeah?" He said running up the stairs, worried laced in his voice. "Can you make some tea? We are about to talk." He released a breath of air and nodded his eyes, excitement clear in his eyes. He ran down the stairs, while I changed into some different clothes.

It is raining again, typical London weather. I was just surprised to have the sunny days we had. I quickly rinsed off and changed into grey oversized sweats and a grey-black oversized tribal jumper. The house felt like we were in Antartica, but I was too lazy to turn it down. I put my dirty clothes with the other pile of clothes I had to wash later. 

Louis came into the room as I was throwing my hair into a messy ponytail. As I jumped onto my bed, Louis walked into my room, smiling at me with amusement. He chuckled a little as he handed me my cup of tea. I am pretty sure it was Yorkshire, it was his favourite. "Close the door?" Louis asked me before he sat down. I nodded my head up and down quickly. He closed the door and came and sa next to me. "So, what do we have to talk about?" I blew on my tea, then took a sip. "Everything." Me and him both giggled. "Okay, so since you got here..." I told him everything, every detail. In the end, there was no more tea and Louis looked on the edge of his seat. "So, do you love him?" He asked curiously. "What?! No!! No!! We aren't even together." "Oh, okay." For some reason, there was a hint of hope and happiness in his voice. I ignored it and cuddled into him. 

He played with the strands of my hair and started singing. He started singing Hey There Delilah by Plain White T's. The Plain White T's were also our favourite band.

"Hey there Delilah, what's it like in New York City.

I'm a thousand miles away, but girl tonight you look so pretty, yes you do.

Time square can't shine as bright as you. I swear it's true.

Hey there Delilah, don't you worry about the distance.

I'm right there if you get lonely, give this song another listen.

Close your eyes, listen to my voice it's my disguise.

I'm by your side.

Oh, it's what you do to me.

Oh, it's what you do to me.
