It had been three weeks since I had last seen or talked to Louis. Most of my days consisted of either driving around to random cities I had never visited or I spent with Owen. Owen was becoming a close friend to me and he was always there for me when I needed to cry. A few times I even invited Owen to drive around with me. Those times were more fun then when I was alone, music blasting, someone to joke with, having him made the trips better. But still I needed my time by myself sometimes.

Some people may say I am stupid for not knowing how Owen feels about me but the truth is I do. I know he likes me more than a friend, I can tell by his actions. Even though I love Owen as a friend, I will never love him as boyfriend. At least, not now.

It was now early fall, and I finally decided it would be safe to move back to my apartment. Owen has told be that he's only seen Louis come by 3 or 4 times. In a way that was good and bad.

Good: he wasn't constantly coming to my place so I was able to go back.

Bad: if he had only showed up 4 times, that must mean he isn't really trying to get me back.

Good: I don't want him back.

Bad: I do.

My mind was still in a messy whirlwind of confused feelings  as I was packing up the few things I had with me in the hotel.  Luckily, this hotel didn't cost very much for 3 weeks.

I barely looked at my phone anymore. The first few days it was non-stop texts and calls from Louis. Then they started to become fewer and fewer each day. There was a side of me that wanted to answer and forgive him but the other side of me knew that was a stupid decision so I never did.

I walked down to the lobby of the hotel to check out. I had bonded with one of the girls at the front desk. She noticed how long I was staying here — unplanned for that matter — and started talking with me. She had told me that she once had a boyfriend who cheated on her too.

"How did you move on?"  I asked in almost a whisper.

"It takes time," she sighed," it took me at least a month or two to even talk to the guy again! Then when I did, we officially broke up and that is when you can really move on."

I laughed light heartedly with and thanked her for being so kind to me.

"Anytime Kalel! Let me tell you one last thing, it's almost a blessing that happened to me. Otherwise I doubt I would have ever met my fiancé," she smiled at me as she stood up to go back to her job.

I remember I was glad she told me that but at the same time, I didn't really want to break up with Louis. I still felt live he was the one.

I silently cursed under my breath.

"Hey Erin, I'm checking out today," I spoke with a smile.

"Oh my word! Really?" She gasped," well I'm glad I got to meet you. Text me and let's get together some day soon."

I loved that idea," Will do, thank you Erin. Have a nice day!"

The air was the coldest I had felt it in awhile. I stopped, and dropped my bag, in a desperate search for my sweatshirt. Of course it wasn't that hard to find it but it was so cold outside, every second matter. I slipped the fluffy black and white cat sweatshirt over my head and felt instant warmth. I stood up, still looking at the ground as I picked up my bag. When I finally looked up, I was almost knocked off my feet in shock. I kept looking at it and back to the ground to make sure I saw correctly. But my eyes did not deceive me. They saw him and he saw me. Neither of us moved but our eyes locked.

It was Louis.

Okay so I know this chapter is really really short and kind of not very important to the story but I'm trying figure out where I want the story to go from here. I have a few ideas but I will probably take one or two more chapters like this one before the story starts going somewhere. So bear with me ^_^ Ten votes before the next update?
