Twisted

Chapter Two: Always there for you (Louis POV)

“Come on!” I urged. “One, two, three.” I counted as I tried to pull El up through my window. My window was on the first floor, but it was higher up making it difficult to climb through on your own.

“Why can’t I go through your front door?” She asked giggling for the first time.

“Cause my parents would kill me if they found you here…”

“Okay, one more time.” She said, ignoring my comment. I tightened my grip on her hand and thrusted her up with all my strength. I lost my footing and slipped out of my room, falling towards the ground until I found myself on top of her, laying in the cool damp grass, our faces inches from each other. My hands were placed right on either sides of her head while my legs fell awkwardly on hers. She looked at me straight in the eyes. We laid there for a moment getting lost in each other’s gaze. I leaned closer to her and placed my forehead against hers, her face was expressionless. I leaned even closer trying to make sure my body didn’t crush her underneath my weight and closed my eyes, preparing for the moment I waited my whole life, to kiss her. Next thing I knew I was lying on my back staring up at the sky.

“Get off me Louis.” I heard her say as she giggled, wiping her hands on her jeans. I sat up and stared at her in confession.

“What was that? I thought we had something there for a second… it probably would have made you feel better.” I said walking up to her and placing my hand on her cheek to sooth her.

“Stop flirting Lou.” She said softly as she peeled my hand off of her. “I wanted some comfort.” She said looking like she was about to cry.

“What happened El?” I asked as we sat down on a nearby bench. 

“Josh...Josh and I broke up…he... he cheated on me...” She choked out as sobs came out of her. I embraced her into a hug as she soaked my shirt in tears.

“I’m so sorry El, you deserve better than him…” I said as I tried soothing her. I held her tighter wondering how someone could do that to a girl like this, a girl that I would love to call mine. She continued to cry in my arms, her voice became muffled when she tried to talk. I shushed her kindly and petted her head, relaxing her.

 "I will always love you El. Remeber that alright...." I mumbled.

"What?" She asked as she looked up into my gaze.

"Nothing..." I responded changing my mind. Nows not the time to admit my feelings.
