**Aria’s POV** Thursday
I crashed down onto my bed. Only one more day till we leave for California! This has been practically my first free moment since we decided we are going. Between work, school, homework, and planning, I have barely had time to breath. I curled up under my blankets, just realizing how tired I am.
I pulled the blanket over my head as I checked my phone. The group message that I am in with the boys, Perrie, Dani, Leah, and Jane, constantly had new messages for me to read. Mostly about how excited everyone was about leaving for LA tomorrow after school. We had it planned out by the minute. We are all going to go to school then meet back at Niall and Harry’s flat at 4:00pm. Then we go out for dinner and head to the airport.
My mind flashed across random moments and thoughts as I drifted asleep. Most of them were about California, but the very last thing that popped into my mind before everything faded out, was Louis.

**Louis POV**
I stepped out of my car that was parked along the road and walked through the empty field. Like always I am the only one here, I continued past the bench that I usually stay at to look over the city, heading to the edge of the woods. There was a small opening through the trees and brush, when people besides me actually came here this was a walking trail. I walked along it squishing the reddish brown clay like dirt under my black vans. I came to a little bridge the crossed over a creek. It looked like it was barely being held together. Instead of crossing I went down the rocks by the water and sat.
Even though it’s been days I still can’t stop thinking about what Aria said, how I had two sided and she liked the real me more than the one most everyone else see’s. The only people know the real me are my closest mates, but when we switched to public school I decided I wanted to change what girls thought of me as. At my old school I was always the class clown and whenever I thought a girl liked me in turned out I was just ‘Friend Zoned’, so when we came here I build up a ‘bad boy’ act and I guess it worked for awhile. But now all I wanted was to be the me that Aria wanted.
My phone buzzed breaking me from thought.
“Hello” I said in to the phone.
“Louis! Where are you?” Harry shouted.
“Calm down”
“You’re with Aria aren’t you?” He chuckled.
“No, I’m just getting a break from everything. I’ll be back in an hour or so” I said. Then rushed through the conversation then slid my phone away.
It’s not exactly that I needed a break it’s just that so much has happened in the last few weeks I just need awhile to think about it all.

Friday
I sat down at our usually table in the courtyard with the boy, Leah, Jane, and Aria. “Can you believe in a few hours we will be on our way to LA” Leah squealed tossing her very light brown hair over to one shoulder.
Everyone continued about what we were going to o when we got there before we were interrupted by a boy, the guy that I beat up actually.
“Um can I talk to you for a second” He mumbled to Aria.
Wow. He must have nerve to come over to my table and talk to her. Aria excused herself from the table and walked to the doors of the school. They’re smiling and laughing. Anger flowed through me. I clenched my jaw. Just calm down I told myself, I am not going to be jealous of him.

**Aria’s POV**
I stepped away from the tables over to the doors of the school. Don’t get me wrong, I loved being friends with Jake, but it just awkward to talk to him when Louis is around.
“So I was just wondering if you could hang out today” He smiled.
“I can’t. I’m going to California for break and we’re leaving today”
“Oh okay, sorry if this seems random, but what your friends name?” Jake asked glance at Jane.
“Jane,” I smiled “Why?”
“She’s- well, hot” He said. Maybe not the best word to describe a girl, but it was true. I’ve always been jealous of Jane. She’s practically flawless.
“Aww does little Jakey have a crush” I laughed.
“Oh just go back to you friends,” he chuckled “I’ll text you later”
I walked back to my table and sat next to Jane. Louis looked up at me with a somewhat unreadable expression. Whatever he was feeling he was trying to hide. Maybe he was mad that I was talking to Jake or, could he be jealous? No, Louis doesn’t get jealous of people.
“Do you know Jake?” I ask quiet enough for only Jane to hear.
“Um I think he’s in my Latin class. Why?” She answers.
“Oh. Well he’s really funny, you should be talk to him” I say casually before turning to Perrie who was on the other side of me.
“Seriously all I can think about is LA” Perrie said in a high pitch voice.
“Me too,” I squeal excitedly “And it’s actually warm there!” I grieve. I hated the cold weather beyond belief.

“Switch seats with me” Louis urged to Niall.
We had been on the plane for about an hour and my seat has been next to Niall. “Fine” Niall gave up and went to Louis old seat next to some random guy.
“Much better” Louis said placing his arm around me as he sat down.
He let out a laugh as I pulled his arm off of me. “It’s cute when you play hard to get”
I rolled my eyes the turned toward the window. Out of the corner of my eye I could see him still looking at me. “Seriously, what's with you and the staring?” I said still not facing him.
“I like staring at gorgeous women” he tilt my jaw so I would face him. I excepted him to have that usually smirk, but instead he was biting his lip looking down at me with those bright blue eyes.
The familiar feeling of butterflies stirred up in my stomach. Frozen under his gaze I didn’t react till his mouth was connecting with mine. It was a short kiss like the last one, but it left my lips tingling and my heart racing.
