Behind Her Smile [Louis]

I woke up by an incredible enjoyable scent. A smile curved on my lips until I noticed this was a little too comfortable. I immediately opened my eyes and my head was in the crook of his neck and his muscular arms were wrapped around me, like he wasn’t planning on ever letting me go.
“Louis” I whispered and as soon as I did, his body shivered all over and he loosened his grip. When he slowly opened his eyes he –also- knew what was going on. He immediately sat straight, almost letting me fall.
“I’m so sorry” he yawned and rubbed with his hands over his face.
“No, I am sorry, I fell asleep.” I panicked a little, what if everything will become extremely awkward.
“Don’t be sorry dude” he laughed and punched his fist against my shoulder again.
“Oh so this” I imitated his action. “Is becoming our thing” I chuckled.
“Hey, don’t complain! You started all this, dude.” He raised his voice. And I had to laugh, he always made me laugh.
“You’re making fun of me!” I protested, still holding the wide smile on my face.
“Come on! You like the attention” he laughed along. I don’t know how it would sound, but I think his laugh would come pretty close to the sound of angels singing.
“What are you saying there, Tommo?” I grinned.
He rolled his eyes playfully and stood up. “It’s pretty late, we should go to bed”
I quickly made a messy bun, because I’m sure my hair was a complete mess.
“Hey Jess, right?” Both Louis and I looked up.
“Uh , yea” the laughter was still in my eyes, so I answered pretty excitedly.
“Oh, hey Hazza” Louis answered casually, but on the contrary of me, his smile has totally faded.
“Why are you still up?” I asked, chuckling a bit.
“exploring the city by night, you have to join me next time, pretty fun” he laughed friendly.
“I certainly will if you invite me.” I smiled back. I really had a great feeling about Harry, he’s kind and no drama to hang out with him, I suppose.
“Let me show you your room” Louis quickly said.

I woke up again for the second time this day, by a soft knock at my door.
I let out a groan.
“Yea?” I had difficulties to bring out words.
“Hey, uh, Jess? It’s Paul, you have to weak up otherwise you’ll miss breakfast, darling” his voice was murmurous because of the door in between.
“Sure, I’ll be there as soon as I can. Thanks” I quickly took a shower and chose one of my new outfits I had bought back in London.

“Damn girl, no wonder you’re all they’re talking about” The only guy I have never seen before said. His hair in a quiff and his eyes were sparkling brown, less dark than Liam’s eyes, but still dark enough to cover his secrets. He was wearing a grey jeans vest. He looked kind of rough, but he still had those friendly twinkles in his eyes. He kept giving me different impressions, and it confused me a lot.
I saw Niall smiling proudly and Louis slapping Zayn’s arm.
I blushed a little by his comment and murmured a shy ‘Hi’ and sat down between Liam and Niall. Niall leaned in and whispered something in my ear.
“You’re going to have so much fun with us. We’re amazing” his voice totally betrayed his enthusiasm.
I grinned and pushed his shoulder away. Not in a rude way though, it was something friends did, I suppose.
There were a lot of people everyone seemed to know, I only knew 6 persons. Louis, Niall, Harry, Liam, Paul and now Zayn. But it seemed like everyone in this restaurant was in the One Direction crew.
We spend the time talking, mostly laughing at everything. I suddenly forgot how uncomfortable I’m supposed to feel with so many stranger around.
Suddenly a guy around his fifties stood up and walked towards our table.
“Please guys, I beg you. Don’t go far away so that we have to search you in the entire city. We’re leaving in 2 hours. Don’t, please.” He wanted to walk away but then turned around again. “please” he begged once again before definitely walking away.
“Wow, I don’t even wanna know what you guys did to make him so desperate.” I chuckled.
“Do you fancy bad boys?” Harry wiggled his eyebrows.
“No” I laughed.
“What sort of guys do you fancy then?” Liam asked interested. Suddenly all their eyes were aimed in my direction.
“Uh, I don’t really have a type I guess.” I shrugged.
“Oh, c’mon there must be something that turns you on” Harry smirked.
“uh, I suppose the guy has to be sweet, of course. And he has to be someone where I feel comfortable with.” They all stared at me, except for Louis. He was looking at his hands. I suddenly thought of everything Louis was. “But the most important is that he can make me laugh.” Suddenly he looked directly into my eyes, and a weak smile escaped his lips. I smiled back before giving the others my attention back.
Time passed and soon only me and Niall were sitting on the breakfast table. We were so busy chatting that I didn’t even noticed they left.
“Hey, Jess”
“Hmm?” I brought my attention back to Niall.
“Let’s go to the city, I’ve seen a bar yesterday, and I really want to check it out.” Niall placed his hands under his head, and waited for my response.
“Niall, we’re not suppose to-“ He looked disappointed.
“Oh, c’mon Jess! We have to! Please there has to be some tension in your life!” I smiled.
“Oh , Niall you have no idea what for tension I’ve got in my life. But sure I’ll follow you.” He reached for my hand so I took it.
“I hope you’re right Niall.” I sighed a little before starting to walk.

“Hey aren’t you that guy from One Direction?” a guy suddenly asked.
“Uh yea” Niall smiled kindly.
“Where’s your bodyguard, kiddo?” the guy smirked, and that smirked was a little too similar to the one my dad used to have before he hit me.
“He’s asking for a fight, Niall” I whispered extremely scared. From the moment I opened my eyes, Niall looked at me worriedly.
“Are you okay?” he whispered back.
No, I was not.
“I’m fine, let’s go, Niall” I tugged at his hand.
“Please” I begged.
“Sure” He looked one more time at the guy and then he hugged me while walking out of the bar.
-
“Niall, Niall, Niall, Niall, Niall” even I heard the angry yet scared voice through his phone.
“Oh, fuck! Sorry Paul I totally lost track of time. “I’m sooo sorry” Niall looked guilty at me.
“C’mon Jess! We have to go for a run.” Niall smirked.
Before we could even begin to run I stumbled. “fuckfuckfuckfuck” I grabbed my ankle.
“shit” Niall cursed.
“C’mon climb on my back.” Niall motioned impatiently with his hand to come.
While we –me on Niall’s back, it was a pretty funny sight of us chasing through the mass- were running I remembered his words from earlier.
“Hey, Niall. You were right. Besides the million fans that interrupted our conversations and stuff I really had a great time.” I was sure Niall was smiling , but he didn’t answer.
Things were good. Things were really good.
Though, there was one person missing in all this.
