When You said 'Rock Me', Is This What You Meant? | l.t (Book l) [unedited]

Chapter Thirty

A/N: Can you believe we're already on Chapter 30? :o Sorry for the late chapter, by the way! ALSO, I apologize for the slowness of this book :( It's only just now starting to get good, and I know that might be why I'm not getting a lot of feedback.

Zoe's POV:

I awoke to Louis telling my goodbye very early in the morning, and he made sure I knew where his phone was before kissing me once more.

I went to sleep again after that, seeing as it was six a.m. After I was sure I didn't want to sleep anymore, it was ten and I had the mansion like house to myself. Honesty was adventuring in Louis' room as I dressed myself in my usual outfit.

"Honesty, let's get dressed so we can go shopping with Court." I called, picking out her outfit. I settled on her new clothing, an adorable collared navy blue dress, and a black cardigan. Also accompanied with cute little boots. She allowed me to dress her so she wouldn't ruin her new clothes. We left our hair in our natural curls. 

After we were all set and ready to go, somebody called Louis' phone, bringing my attention back to it. I was going to ignore it, until I saw the name. Eleanor.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Zoe, is Louis there?" She said frantically.

"No, what happened?" I asked calmly.

"Christina got arrested." Eleanor whispered into the phone.

"That's good, right?" I asked, and Honesty and I made our way down the stairs.

"Um, no!" Eleanor exclaimed.

"Why not?" I asked, growing irritated.

"Zoe, if I tell you over the phone I'm afraid for both us, for your family." Eleanor sighed.

"Okay, Eleanor. I've gotta go." I said.

"Wait, don't go downtown, okay?" She quickly advised.

"Okay, Eleanor. Goodbye." I hung up the phone, and shoved it in my pocket.

"Who was that, Mummy?" Honesty asked, picking at a button on her dress.

"That was a friend of Daddy's. Let's go meet Courtney, okay?" I smiled, and I led her by the hand outside and into one of Louis' cars.

We drove listening to the radio, and singing along to random songs. Eventually we pulled up to the fast food chain, and we met Court inside the building.

"Over here!" I heard her voice. She was waving her hand in the air as if I couldn't tell where she was by her bright hair. I smiled, and noticed the food she ordered as we got closer.

"Thank you, you didn't have to order for us." I smiled as she divided the food. She rolled her eyes playfully and then yanked a bite of her burger.

"How are things between you and Harry?" I asked, taking a bite of my own food.

"We're going okay, even though I don't really see us getting any more serious." She informed me with a light tone.

"Are you okay with that?" I frowned, knowing she could be quite the hopeless romantic. She shrugged.

"It's kind of okay, I mean we're still in secret and he's a pop star. It's kind of like a dream, and he seems too... what's the word... fake? When we hang out." Courtney told me, waving her hands around.

"How does he act?" I wondered.

"He acts like an actor." She chuckled.

"Well, hopefully things will work out." I smiled.
