"Sleep well okay?" Louis said, kneeling down before me, as he made me sleep in his own bed. And yeah, there was a spare room, but he said he was too lazy to make the bed and all. He'd ask any of the helpers the next day.

"Yeah." I was still uncomfortable here. But louis made it so much relaxing. There is just something about him that makes me wanna rely my whole life on him. But that cant happen. I'm here temporarily, until he finds a way. Yes, to meet a person like Louis is once in a lifetime thing. And would I miss him when I'm gone? Very much.

He gave a tight smile, and kissed me on my forehead, making me all pink. These sweet gesture, I have missed them all along. Specially Edward, my brother. He used to tuck me in every night, when I was young. But always came to kiss me good night, even until that day. That awful day.

"Ohh now you're blushing, huh? Did I made you that red?" Louis joked lightheartedly. I just chuckled along him and sighed. This is temporary, I kept reminding myself to not get addicted to the way he treats me, the way he makes me laugh, with his humor and funny comments. Just one day, and I'm wanting to get more. Like, he is a personality.

"Shut up." I said slowly, a smile on my lips. I felt my eyes drop any moment but still saw louis getting up from his previous position and head to the couch in the corner of the room, where he will spend the night. I felt really guilty for he was willing ready to spare the bed for me. I hesitated at first, but he was determined to make me sleep on his bed.

"Louis, can I ask you a question?" I said before he would leave for the night. On the couch, yes.

"Yes, sure love." He replied, with his ever so bright smile at me. He took my hands in his, and caressed it with the other.

"When I'm gone to wherever I'm arranged for, is there any chance of me still meeting you?" And for a moment I saw sadness creep into his face, but he quickly covered it up with his smile.

"Of course, Eden. I will meet you. You're too nice of a young lady to let go like that, darling." He said and I smiled at him, lazily. It's better that way then.

"Goodnight, Eden." I heard his fading voice, and wished him too.

"Good night, Louis." I was about to slip into my unconsciousness when I heard him mumble to himself, maybe.

"I hope someday you'll open to me."
