Safe and Sound (A Louis Tomlinson Fanfic)

Chapter 11.

Gabrielle's P.O.V.

I put my last bag in the car and walked back into the house to see if Louis and Harry needed any help. Shockingly they were no where in sight. "Boys?" I called out. I walked up the steps. I heard faint voices coming from Lou's room.

"Haz, what if she doesn't come back?" I heard. I crept closer to the room and pressed my ear up against the door. Don't judge. I'm a little nosey.

"Gab, really likes you Lou. I don't think she's going to leave and stay home." Harry said.

"She hasn't seen her family or best friend in two years. She misses them like crazy. Of course she's going to want to stay." I sighed quietly so they couldn't hear.

"I'm sure she will stay." I heard faint cries. Louis was crying? Over me?

"Harry, I can't- I can't loose her. When I lost Eleanor, I felt like giving up. But, then I saw Gabrielle. Even with the bruises  and all the cuts. She was by far the most beautifulest girl I have ever seen. It's just Haz- I think- I think I'm in love with Gab." My heart dropped at that. He loved me. Well he thinks he loves me. I actually thought about staying home. But, I love Louis too. I couldn't leave him. He's helped me through so much. Gave me shelter, made me.. well me. "Actually no, Harry, I am in love with her." A smile came upon my face.

"I know you are Lou. It'll be okay, I promise." There was silence, I asumed they hugged.

"Come on. Gabrielle is waiting for us."

I started to walk away but stopped when I heard, "Maybe I shouldn't go. I'll just tell her I'm sick." What? He has to go!

"Lou!" Harry called out, but Louis was already out the door facing me. Both of us with tears in our eyes.

"You don't wanna go?" I asked.

"How much of that did you hear?" Louis asked in a whisper.

"Al- All of it." I stuttered. Louis embraced me in a hug. And we both sat there crying. Harry sat there in silence.

"I'm not going to stay, Lou. I can't leave you." I promised. His tear filled bright blue eyes looked into mine. They read happiness and confusion.

"Gab, it's your family. You haven't seen them. Yoiu don't have to come back."

I gave him a weak smile, "I know I don't have to. But, I want to. Now, come on. I'm pretty sure the rest of the boys are downstairs and we don't wanna miss our flight."

I checked my phone- 7:25. "Yeah we gotta go." Louis grabbed my hand and all of us squeezed into the car.

"Flight 208 to Denver now boarding." We picked up all of our stuff. I held Louis' hand causing paparazzi to take pictures which I just ignored. Paul came up besides me.

"Nervous?" I nodded my head and Louis kissed my cheek leaving the feeling of his lips tingle.

"Don't worry. Everything will be okay." Paul promised before going ahead of us leading us on the plane first class.

"Are you in first class up in the sky? All the champange, livin the life." Louis sang in an attempted girl voice. I started laughing. I've never been first class in a plane before. It was weird. You got treated like royalty.

I yawned. "Tired, love?" Lou asked. I nodded. It was at least a 16 hour flight.

He kissed me, "Go to sleep." I rested my head on his shoulder. I felt a blanket being wrapped around me and soon fell asleep.
