Chance meetings (A Louis Tomlinson Love Story)

Chapter 15- Unexpected

Maya’s POV

I grabbed the packets of the woman behind the counter, I smiled at her and said thank you. Liam and I walked over to the groceries store.

"So what do you wanna make tonight?" Liam asked.

"My speciality, steak and salad with a side of potato mash," I smiled.

"Cheap and cheerful," replied Liam.

He started walking towards to the door of the supermarket. I stopped, froze I couldn’t go in. Liam stopped and turned back to me.

"I think I’ll wait in the car," I said.

"Are you ok?" Liam asked.

"I’m fine, just tired that’s all, go, I’ll wait in the car."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, I’m fine."

"Ok, I’ll be quick."

I walked over to the car and got in.

"You ok mam?" asked the driver.

"I am fine."

"Do you mind if I go to the toilet mam?"

"No go for it."

The driver left and I was alone. Liam was being so sweet, taking care of me, helping me, I looked at the packet, and this thing could change my whole life. I didn’t want to know, I didn’t want any of it to be true, especially this. What if I was pregnant, would Louis stay with me, would he leave. All these different emotions were running through my mind and they brought tears to my eyes. I didn’t want to use it, I looked at it, and I took the box out of the paper packeting. I just stared at it wondering what I would do with it. All of the sudden, the door opened and Liam got in.

"Hey you ok?" Liam asked.

"Yeah, where are the groceries?"

Then the back opened.

"Never mind," I replied.

During the trip home, I tried to put on a face, be brave and not let on that something is wrong. We got home and I headed straight to the kitchen and started making dinner. I was wondering what way to cook the steak, I found a small hot plate under the kitchen sink and there was the grill, I could also fry the steak, I decided to ask the boys. I hadn’t spoken to Louis since I got in, he and Harry had gone for a swim and the rest of the boys were playing Mario Kart. I loved that game but even I would get bored playing it as much as they do.

"Steak, fried, grilled or barbequed?"

"Barbequed," said Liam.

"Fried," smiled Niall.

"Barbequed," said Alice.

"Barbequed," said Zayn, keeping his eyes on the game.

"Alright then, barbequed it is then," I smiled. Niall pouted.

I walked back into the kitchen and started on the mash potato. I started peeling the potato’s, one by one. I was used to cooking for three girl, who together didn’t eat much not used to cooking for seven boy, who pretty much never stopped eating, so I needed a lot more potatoes, then normal. This also meant that it would take a lot more time than normal. Next thing I know, Liam was standing next to me peeling potatoes.

"I thought you might like a hand," he said.

"Thanks."

"Anytime," Liam smiled.
