The City Of Love

Rachel's P.O.V.

Once Lia was done explaining what had happened with Niall, I linked my arm with hers.

"He's being really horrible.." I mumbled, genuinely shocked at his behaviour.

Of course Lia knew him a lot longer so she probably understood why he was mad more than I did.

"Mmhh.." She just hummed in response.

"Maybe we should go, yeah?" I decided after a minute of silence.

She nodded in response.

"Yeah, good idea" she agreed.

"Hey Louis!" I yelled out to where Louis was talking to a group of fans not far away.

He jumped looking startled.

"Yes?" He called back once he realised it was me.

I walked over to him quickly, so that we wouldn't be shouting.

"Lia and Niall got into a big fight so we're just gonna head back to the hotel" I told him quietly as the small group of fans left.

"Oh right okay. I'll come with you" he replied.

By now Lia was next to me.

"No, stay. I don't wanna ruin your fun" Lia commented.

He raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I'm sure it'd be great for me. God knows where Lena and Zayn are. And Naomi and Harry are probably off making out in a corner somewhere" he said.

Lia folded her arms.

"Your not exactly one to talk, are you now?" She muttered.

Louis rolled his eyes.

"You're funny Li" he muttered sarcastically, slinging an arm over her shoulder.

For some reason the action annoyed me.

I frowned, wondering why.

Louis and Lia had been friends for years, he was just comforting her. So why was I so bothered by it?

"Coming?" Lia asked, seemingly sensing my awkwardness.

I nodded, quickly shaking off my annoyance.

We made our way back towards the elevator and it took us down to floor two. We had to wait in a queue before we eventually got the lift to the bottom.

Once out, we made our way back to the metro station.

Since it was now quite late the metro wasnt too full. There was even a spare seat, which i had to convince Lia to take.

I felt my phone buzz in my pocket and took it out to find a text from Lena:

'Where are you guys? We're at the little crepe stand across from the Eiffel Tower :)'

I text her back quickly, despite the fact that I knew it would cost a fortune in credit.

'On the metro back to the hotel. I'm jealous, i love crepes!'


She didnt text back after that, which I didnt mind.

When we eventually got off the metro, I started to realise I was pretty hungry myself. I hadn't eaten since the boat ride. I made a mental note to order room service.

"I think I'll walk he to your room" Louis decided as walked in the hotel door.

Lia chuckled.

"We're not babies Lou, we can walk to the room alone you know" she told him.

He decided to walk us anyway.

Once in the room I let Lia go in ahead and turned back to face Louis.

"You told Lia about the kiss?" He asked in a low voice.

I nodded in response.

"Yeah. Well it wasn't like a romantic kiss" I started.

"No" he agreed quickly.

"So its not a big deal.. It was just an Eiffel Tower thing, right?" It ended up coming out as a question, because I sensed he felt doubtful.

"Of course. I only kissed you cause you asked me to" He said quickly, rubbing the back of his neck, a giveaway that he was nervous.

I nodded.

"Good" I mumbled.

"Good" he replied.

I sighed.

"Well good night Louis. Thanks again for the kiss. It meant a lot" I told him honestly.

He smiled.

"Your very welcome" he replied.

I felt myself smile back.

"Night Rach" he added, and with that he began to walk off. As he did though I remembered something .

"Send Esmie back!" I called after him.

He gave me a thumbs up indicating he would.

I headded into the room then and found Lia sitting on theedge of her bed, staring at the door that joined our room withthose other four boys. Only we could open it.

Behind the door was a small corridor and then there was the door that only the boys could open.

"Whats going on?" I asked.

Then a loud knock on that door made me jump.

Lia gave me a confused look.

"They want to come in" she mumbled.
