Lost

In the morning, when I woke up, I smelled breakfast cooking. I didn’t think much of it, because I assumed it was Harry cooking breakfast. I had forgotten that he wasn’t around anymore.

I looked up at my bed to find that Ava wasn’t in it. I got up, stretched, and headed downstairs.
There at the kitchen was Ava, cooking eggs and pancakes.

“Smells good.” I said and smiled. Ava turned around and saw me.

She smiled, “Thanks! Are you hungry?” She asked and I nodded.

I looked around. Zayn and Niall were sleeping on the couch. Ava prepared a plate for me, which I gladly took.

“Thanks for the breakfast,” I said.

“No problem!” Ava said. She seemed especially cheery this morning, which I found very cute.
The food tasted delicious. Not only was Ava supportive and attractive, but man, she could cook!

“This is amazing!” I said with a stuffed mouth.

“Come on, Louis. It’s not that good.” She said with a laugh.

“Believe me, Ava. It is.” I said as I stuffed my mouth with more food.

I heard a yawn coming from the couch and looked over. Yep. Niall was up. It took him a moment, but when the scent of food smacked him in the face, he was wide awake.

“FOOD!!” he bellowed.

Ava laughed. Her laugh was amazing. I just wanted her to laugh more and more.

Niall ran over and got himself a plate from the cabinet. He piled his plate high with food and gobbled it down within minutes.

“Wow… that was SPECTACULAR!” He said, and grinned like an idiot. Niall’s hair was going up in all directions, and he was grinning like a madman. In other words, he looked like a psycho.

A couple minutes later, Zayn woke up. His hair was also crazy, but he was way calmer that Niall. He slowly walked (looking like a zombie), and got himself a plate. He prepared it with food. He took his sweet time eating, but complimented Ava’s cooking a lot.

“See?” I asked Ava, “Your cooking is that good.” Ava smiled and blushed.

“Louis, stop flattering me.” She said, and I smiled.

Ava was so beautiful. The way her eyes sparkled when she laughed. The way her hair hung, all wavy, around her. She was perfect. And it was official: I was in love with her.

Ava’s POV

Louis smiled. His eyes sparkled with joy. Over the past couple days, I had realized, that while I was helping Louis, he really helped me. He helped me to realize a lot of things. One of the things he helped me realize was that no matter how depressing my past has been, I should move on, and start over fresh. As my favorite quote goes, ‘Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.’

But right now, when Louis smiled, I realized how handsome he was. His hair might have been messed up, but it made him look cute. When he laughed, his joy could change a sad place into a happy one. I hated it when he cried. I felt like I would breakdown along with him. But I always thought to myself, ‘Ava, stay strong.’

I knew Louis had no idea of what he was capable of, but I had to show him.

Last night, while Louis was sleeping, I stared at him. I tried to memorize all the features of his perfect face.

He had seemed so relaxed when he was sleeping, yet so tense when he was awake.

When I had finally lain down, I could smell his scent on his pillow case and blankets. I wanted to remember his scent, because it made me feel calmer.

Last night watching Louis sleep, I knew. I wasn’t sure exactly what I knew, but I knew.
Louis Tomlinson was someone I had gotten to get to know these past few weeks. I learned his true, fun personality. But at times when he was feeling down, I was left to comfort him.

Louis, I knew had a fun side. He was happy, cheerful, and joyful. All wrapped into one person… at times, when he was happy. He told jokes that made me need to use the restroom because they were so funny, and many times I ended up crying. Most times, when he told jokes, he left my cheeks and stomach hurting, because I had been laughing so hard.

But I also knew Louis was depressed. His best friend had died, and the love of his life had moved. I knew this must’ve been hard on him. I knew it had been very hard on me.

But as Louis laughed in the kitchen this morning, I realized what I knew. What did I know?

I knew that I was in love with Louis.
