It's been a few weeks, Louis recovered well and is home now. I haven't seen him, or spoken to him since our little chat at the hospital. Jay and Niall have taken Cam to go see him a few times but that's it. I know it's taking him longer to heal than they originally thought, so the boys had to postpone their tour and management is pissed. I know they hid the fact that Louis crashed his car because he was drunk by saying it was dark and the road was wet, but other than that I know nothing. It's not my business anymore. It stopped being my business the minute he said I meant nothing to him.
Anyways, I finished packing Cam's bag and set it next to the door. He was going to spend the night over at Niall's so I could have a break.

“Cam! Come get your shoes on, uncle Niall is gonna be here soon!” I called as Niall walked right in. “Perfect timing..” I turned around and smiled at him. He smiled back, but I could tell something was wrong. His face said happy, but his eyes...they said something else. “What's wrong Nialler?”

Niall let out a sigh and shoved his hands in his front pocket. “It's Louis...”

I let out a groan, not wanting to talk about him but sucking it up for my best friend. “What about him?”

Niall looked around the room, avoiding eye contact. “He's just different now...he won't do his physical therapy, Jay said it's a fight just to get him to go take a shower...” He trailed off a bit and then looked at me. “Some of us were wondering if maybe...maybe you could go see him...I think he could really use you.”

A small laugh escaped from my lips. They want me to go and help him? “Why on earth would you think that? Louis told me himself that I meant nothing to him, so why should I go out of my way to help him?”

“I know, I know.” Niall sighed. “It's just that...we've all tried, and you've always had a way with words...you know how to get inside his head and make him realize what is right. I know you can do this. Please.”

Niall Horan was begging. I rubbed my eyes and sighed. “Fine, fine. I will go over and see him...but I'm not responsible if he ends up with more injuries than he started with...”

He chuckled. “Thank you so much Melody. I owe you.” He pulled me into a hug.

“Don't thank me yet.” I laughed patting his back a bit and realized Cam had yet to come downstairs to get his shoes on. “Camden Tomlinson get your bum down here right now!” I hollered up the stairs and shook my head. “That boy is more and more like his father every day. Neither one of them listen to a word I say.”

Louis POV:

I just wanted to be left alone. I didn't want anyone taking care of me, or telling me what I needed to do. I don't need help. Not with my drinking, or my walking, or any of it. I just wanted to be left alone but no one would seem to get that through their thick fucking skulls.

There was a knock at the door. “Go away!” I yelled but the knocking didn't stop. “Why won't you people just leave me the hell alone?!” I groaned putting a pillow over my face. I heard the lock on the door click and the door flung open. “I said, go away.” I snapped again as the person went into the kitchen and set down two grocery bags on the counter.

“Yeah, well tough shit.” Melody snapped back at me. What the hell was she doing here? She should hate me after everything I've done to her.

I sat up as best I could as she walked over to me, pulling the covers off of me. “Lets go.” she ordered.

I looked at her, confused. “Go where?”

“To the bathroom so you can get your smelly ass into a shower. You smell worse than Niall after a show. Now come on, lets go.” She pulled at my arm, even though I protested. “Stop acting like a child, Louis. You need a shower lets go.”

I finally gave in and stood up, grabbing onto her for support as she pushed me towards the bathroom. I sat on the toilet while she turned the water on. “Why are you even here?” I questioned, looking down at the floor.

Melody turned around and looked at me. “Honestly? I have no idea. I shouldn't give a shit what happens to you, but I do. You can act like you didn't care about me all you want, but we both know that was a lie. I don't know what I did to you to make you treat me so horribly, but-”

I cut her off. “You didn't do anything.” I looked up at her and sighed. “This has nothing to do with you. It's all me...” After everything I had done, she was still here, helping me. She acted like she didn't want to be, but I could tell that she was doing this because she wanted too, because she cared. I treated her like shit, but she still cared for me. I don't deserve someone like her. Not after the way I treated her.

Melody was quiet for a moment, then she looked at me again. “Then why are you acting like we were nothing?” She looked down at the floor, then back at me. I could tell she was hurting. Her eyes weren't as bright as they used to be.

I reached for her arm and pull her a little bit closer to me, standing up and looking her right in the eyes. “Because I love you.”
