The Player's Game [Louis T. AU]

Chapter 24

-Chelsea-

I woke up this morning wanting to go straight back to bed. I wished that what had happened last night with Louis was just a nightmare. It seems like when things between us start to get great; something horrible happens. I just need to find Louis and explain everything. Hopefully he'll listen

I pulled my hair up into a messy bun, twisting and pulling my hair to fit into my elastic

A small knock came from my door before it slowly opened. Louis slips inside, closing the door behind him. In his hands, he held a plate with two large powdered donuts and two glasses of milk.

"Can we talk?" he asks in a soft tone "I brought breakfast" he attempted a sad smile

I nodded, sitting on the floor against my bed. Louis crouched down in front of me, setting our food between us

"Louis, you have to know that there is nothing going on between Cody and I" I began

"I know. Anne and Monica explained everything. I tried to call you late last night, but your phone was off. I thought it would be better for me to wait to see you till today. You know- to let things cool off" he looked down at his breakfast "I'm really sorry for going off like that" he said in a hushed tone

"It's ok. I should've just told you what was going on while I had the chance in the car. You planned an amazing evening and I ruined it. I should be the one saying sorry" I sighed, taking a bite of the powdery treat, holding my hand under my chin to catch any stray crumbs

"No" Louis said "Cody ruined the night. not you" he looked at me "And I didn't help any" 

"Louis" I took a breath "If we are gonna, ya know-work." I said, trying to word my statement carefully "You're going to have to trust me"

"Yeah" Louis said "I feel so stupid for not believing you now. Its just- everything lined up. And I know Cody has a 'thing' for you" he made a face

"And You don't have to worry about that. I like you. Not Cody"

"Well I know that now" he let out a small smile

Louis took a small sip of milk, leaving a perfectly placed milk line

"Uhm- Louis" I laughed "You've got a milk mustache"

"You do too" he smirked

"What? No I don't. I haven't even had any milk"

Louis smiled once again before leaning close to me. Placing his lips on mine. At this moment, it was as if I could see literal fireworks. It felt like our hearts in twined. I felt so connected to him

Louis pulls away grinning

I try to gather myself. It felt like I was a puppet and my puppet master was failing to make me move. I regained my composure, trying to register what had just happened. Louis kissed me Louis kissed me. Louis and I just kissed

"I told you you had a milk mustache" he winked 

"Funny" I smiled, raising my hand to wipe my face off

"Wait!" Louis said urgently, holding his hand up

"What?"I ask, freezing my stance

"Let's take a picture" he pulled out his phone

"Louis. This is not my finest moment" I said, pointing to my face

"This milk is a memento of our first kiss"
