MadHouse
Payback Pool Party
Louis POV.
It was 7:00 A.M. I couldn’t go back to sleep. Today was us and the boys day off so we get to stay in bed all late.I fluff my pillows and laid back down. I kept twisting and turning but couldn’t get comfortable. After countless minutes of trying to go back to sleep, I decided to get up and go downstairs. I sat up and my feet hit the soft warm carpet. I still don’t know why the carpet was black but I didn’t care. I grabbed my phone and turned on the screen. “7: 15, just great.” I sighed and got up. I walked over to one of the chairs in my room and picked up one of my shirts and put it on. I slowly walked to the door, making sure not to make a sound. I opened it and quietly closed it. I turned around in the direction of the stairs.
Dim light from outside peeked through the curtains in the hallway as I made my way to the stairs. I heard footsteps from behind me and then a soft voice calling my name in a whisper. “Louis? Is that you?” I turned around and faced the small yet tall figure standing a few feet away from me. “Yeah? Who’s that?” I heard a chuckle and the figure made its way over to me. As the figure got closer, I saw long blonde hair and realized it was Penelope.
“Penelope? What are you doing up?” She stopped in front of me and I saw a slight smile on her face. “I could asked you the same thing. So I am. What are YOU doing up?” I could feel a smirk grow on my face. I had a habit of doing that. “I asked you first.” She laughed silently and sighed.
“I couldn’t sleep, you?” I nodded my head in agreement. “Same.” We both smiled. I pulled her into my side. “Well good morning then,” She chuckled and hugged me back. “So I’m guessing you’re going downstairs also?” She nodded her head ad we continue to walk towards the stairs. I felt Penelope stop which made me turn around and looked at her confused. “What wrong?” She sighed and titled her head. “Lou, can you carry me down the stairs pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?” Holding the E as she said it.
“Fine, but you owe me.” She jumped and cheered silently which earned a little chuckle from me. I turned around so she could get on my back. I felt her hop on and I continued my way down the stairs. Once we came to the bottom, she jumped off and hugged me. “Thanks Lou!” I smiled and nodded my head to let her know she was welcome. We both made our way to the living room. Halfway to the living room we heard the TV. “I guess someone is already down here.” She nodded and we continued to the living room.
When I turned a corner, I saw a figure laying on the long couch. I immediately recognized who it is, Talia. I recognized her laying style when she slept with me a couple nights ago. I smiled to myself knowing she looked so cute in that position. Penelope and I stood in the doorway watching her. After a couple minutes, I decided to call her name. “Talia?” She seemed startled and jumped, almost falling off the couch. Me and Penelope couldn’t hold back a laugh. “God you scared me!” We walked over to her and helped her up. “Sorry, didn’t mean to.” She looked up at us and smiled. “Its okay, what are you guys doing up?” Me and Penelope looked at each other before returning to Talia. “We’ll I couldn’t go back to sleep and Penelope just woke up early.” She nodded then patted the spots on each side of her for us to sit down.
“So what we watching?” I looked at Talia who eyes were glued on the TV. “Talia? Hello?” I waved my hand in her face. “Huh? Oh- uh yea what did you say?” I laughed at her for zoning out. “I said what are we watching?” She laughed and sighed. “Uhh, SpongeBob right now” I nodded my head and sat back on the couch. I sat crisscross on the sofa and spread my arms out so that my left arm was behind Talia, almost reached the right side of Penelope.
I felt her lay her head back on my arm. I smiled knowing how good she looks laying on my arm. After about an hour of TV watching, all of us were spread out everywhere. Penelope was laying upside down on the couch, Talia was spread out on the floor, and I was laying on the other sofa next to the one Penelope was laying on. I decided that it was time to eat because my stomach felt empty. I got up and walked past Talia and entered to kitchen which was around the corner from living room.The curtains were open and the sun was blazing through the window making everything look so beautiful. The light bounced off the steel counter and hit the wall creating a diamond effect.
I walked to the fridge and opened it. There was nothing that I saw in there and closed it. I went to the pantry and opened it. I saw the box of tea bags and took it out. I decided to make me and the girls some tea. I remembered that Talia and the girls don’t make tea like we do in Doncaster. I stood there trying to remember how they do it. After 5 minutes it finally came to me. I went to the bottom cabinets. I opened one of them and pulled out a pot. I came to the stove and turned it on. I went to the sink and filled the pot with water. I put it on the stove and went back to the box of tea bags. I took out 4 and tied them together so it would be easier to take out. I put it in the pot and put the top on the pot.
“You remembered.” I turned to see Talia standing there, leaning on the fridge.I smiled and nodded. “How could I forget?” She chuckled and came closer to me. She sat on the counter and faced me. She was looking in the direction of the pantry so the sun hit her face but not blinding her. I couldn’t help but stare at how pretty she looked. The sun making her eyes bright and sparkle. Outlining her long eyelashes. Illuminating her soft skin that I desperately wanted to touch so badly. She looked at me and smiled. “What? I know I look like crap.” I shook my head and came close to her, standing in front of her.
“No, you look fine. I promise.” She smiled and looked down, trying to hide her blush but the sun made it stand out. I smiled to myself knowing I could make her blush easily. She looked up at me and we just stared at each other. “Your eyes are so pretty Lou.” I smiled. “Well thank you Talia. So are yours.” She chuckled. I could tell she was blushing again so I decided to point it out. “Is that a blush I see Talia? Awhhh!” She playfully slap my arm and hid her face in her hands. “Awhh don’t hide it, I know you love it!” She chuckled and looked at me. We held each other’s look. I wish I could stay on this moment forever with her. So beautiful, so perfect, just like her. Our face was inches apart. I could feel her breath on my face. She kept looking at my eyes and my lips. I bit my top of my lip as she did the same.“Lou…” I was snapped out of my trance at my name being called. “Yeah?” Our eyes never left each other’s. “The tea.” She pointed to the tea and I turned around.
“Right… the tea.” We stayed like this for a little longer before I reluctantly pulled away. I turned around and cut off the stove. I picked up the pot and sat it on the other burner so it would stop boiling. I opened the cabinet above the stove and took out a plastic pitcher and sat it down. I could feel her eyes on me, every movement I made. I felt her eyes boar into my back like she was trying to read me. Was she really afraid of letting go and letting someone love her? I just hope she can let me in so I can show her. I won’t hurt her, I just wanna fix her, maker her better. I poured the sugar into the pitcher and then poured the tea into the picture as well. I grabbed a big spoon from the drawer and started to stir it. When I finished I put the spoon in the sink. I came back to where the pitcher was and put the top on it.
I opened the cabinet again and grabbed 3 coffee cups. I poured the tea in each cup and then put the tea in the fridge and looked around for the lemon. “Looking for the lemon Lou?” I turned and looked at her. “Yea, where is it?” She came and pointed to the top shelf way in the back. “Oh, thanks.” I smiled and she nodded. I pulled it out and poured a little bit in each cup then put it back. I handed her cup and pick up mines and Penelope. “Ready?” I nodded and we walked back into the living room. By everything that happened in the kitchen I forgot I was hungry. I sat back down on the couch I was laying on. Penelope got up and came towards me. “Thanks Lou!” She took the coffee cup from me and smiled. I nodded and smiled back at her. Talia sat on the couch next to Penelope and we all continued to watch SpongeBob.
I sat my cup on the floor and took my phone out my pajama pocket. I turned on the screen and read the alerts.
3 new text messages
1 voicemail
I decided to read the text messages. I had 1 from Harry, 1 from Azalea, and 1 from Liam. I decided to start with Harry.
Hazzapoo (sent at 7:45)
-Hey you up?
Louisxx
-Yea me, Penelope, and Talia. We downstairs. Come down here.
I exit the screen and clicked on Azalea’s new message.
My Lil Miss Red Headxx (sent at 8:00)
-Let me know if Talia is up or not, Thanks Loubear!
I smiled at her nickname for me.
Louisxx
-Yea she’s been up for a while. We all downstairs. Come down here, Harry is.
I should also let you know that I know Azalea likes Harry. It’s obvious and plus she told me. I opened the last text message from Liam and read it.
Daddy Liam
-hey I know this is early but text me back when you get this, I have an idea on how to get the girls back.
Louisxx
-I been up for a while now so you’re good. Good, I been up all morning thinking of one. You should come down here though, Penelope and Talia are down here so come on down!
After replying to all of them I checked the time. It was 9:00 A.M. I locked the screen and put my phone back in my pocket. I sighed and sunk further into the couch. Man, this couch was the most comfy couch I’ve ever sat in. I decided to let the girls know that Harry, Liam, and Azalea are coming down. “Hey guys, Harry, Liam, and Azalea are on their way down here just to let you know.” They both nodded and continued watching TV. Not to long after I told them, I heard a set of footsteps coming in. I looked up to see Azalea, Harry, and Liam walking in
“Hey Guys, about time you came down here.” They all looked at me and smiled. Harry and Liam came to sit next to me on each side. Azalea, Penelope, and Talia all sat on the floor a little in front of us. It was now 9:30 A.M. In between that time Zayn and Niall came down and sat next to us. 10 minutes after them, Tori and Lina came downstairs. They sat with they girls on the floor and they were talking about something but I couldn’t hear them. I figured this was the time for Liam to share his idea. “Hey Liam, what about that idea?” He looked at me along with the rest of the lads except he knew what I was talking about. “Oh right! Okay so you know Talia has a pool in the back and stuff right?” The lads and I all nodded our heads. I gestured to him to keep going. “Well a couple days ago I came downstairs shirtless and Penelope was down here. To sum it all up, she couldn’t resist staring at me. So I was thinking what if we had a pool party just with us lads and the girls so we could get them back for what happened at rehearsals. I know they won’t be able to resist us so why not.” I looked at the lads who thought about it for a minute before a smirk grew on my face while looking at Talia. “Oh yeah, this is gonna be fun.” They all nodded and looked at the girls. Azalea looked back and winked at us. “From what I can tell, they have something up their sleeves also.” The boys nodded while staring at the girls.
Countless hours of TV watching, we decided to make breakfast. I was about to tell them when Talia stood up and spoke. “Okay what do you guys want to eat this morning?” I got up and came to her. “Me and the lads are gonna cook breakfast so you don’t have too.” She chuckled and sighed. “Really? You guys? Are you sure?” I tilted my head to the side and smiled. “Uh yeah I think we can handle it Mrs. Worry pants.” She busted out laughing along with the rest of the girls. “Okay if you want.”
She went back to sit down and me and the boys got up and went into the kitchen. “So what should we cook?” They boys looked at me before going I’m separate areas to find food. Liam and Harry went to the fridge. Zayn and Niall went to the pantry. I went to the pantry to see if there’s anything. After looking all of us met back at the island in the middle of the kitchen floor. “So whatta got?” We all looked at each other before speaking. Liam spoke first. “Well me and Harry decided on eggs and bacon.” He placed the eggs and bacon on the counter. “Me and Niall found some grits.” I nodded and spoke next. “I found waffles and toaster strudels.”I sighed. “Hold on a minute, okay?” They all nodded and I went into the living room. “Hey guys what do you want to eat?” They all looked back at me before answering. “Uhhhh… Just bacon, eggs, and grits pleaseeee, thank you Lou.” I smiled at Penelope and left. I went back into the kitchen and stood back in my spot.
“Okay so were cooking eggs, bacon, and grits.” They nodded and put the waffles and toaster strudels away. I started the eggs and Liam put the bacon in the oven. While they eggs were cooking, I started more tea. I put it on the burner beside the eggs and turned the burner on. Harry got started on the grits while I finished the eggs. I turned off the burner for the eggs and sat the pan of eggs on the counter. “Excuse me Harry.” He looked at me then smiled before moving out of my way so I could get the tea. I did the usual tea making then sat it on the counter with the eggs. I went to one of the top cabinets and pulled out 10 plates then grabbed some forks from the droor and sat it on the counter with the rest of the stuff. Harry finished the grits and Liam took out the bacon then sat it on the counter with the other food. “OKAY FOOD IS READY!” I yelled loud enough to make sure the girls could hear me. They all came rushing in and got in a line. “Okay so I guess I’ll be fixing the plates then?” Everyone looked at me before nodding then laughing.
One by one I fixed everyone’s plates. “I feel like a cafeteria lady.” They all laughed at me while I was really being serious. I turn to hand the next person their plate, except that next person was Talia. My smile was wiped off my face but quickly came back on. She smiled and came close to me. “We’ll finish later.” She whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. I swear NO GIRL have ever made me feel this way but she was so different. She turned to walk away and I was left standing there still thinking about what happened earlier today in the kitchen. Last was Liam and Penelope. They were in some deep conversation about converses, I don’t know why but they were.“Uh hello guys?” They both stopped and turn to me. “Your plates?” Realization came on their faces as they came to get their plates. I laughed as a blush crept on Penelope face. It sucks that her blush was so visible, we always pointed it out but I don’t think she cares.
I was the only one left in the kitchen so I was fixing my plate. Once I finished, I started making mine when I heard someone coming in. I turned around and it was Azalea. “Hey Loubear, what’s taking you so long?” I laughed and smiled. “I have to fix you guys tea also Azzy.” She chuckled and came over to me. “Well I’ll help you then.” I nodded and she picked up each cup and put it on a tray. When I finished pouring the tea and putting them on the tray, I picked the tray up plus my plate and me and Azalea made our way into the dining area. She passed out the cups and I sat the tray on the floor next to me. I took the only empty seat which was in between Liam and Zayn and across from Talia. As I was eating, I could feel everyone’s eyes on me. I don’t know why, I didn’t do anything. I decided to look up. I was right – everyone eyes was on me. “Uhh….what?” Liam was the first to speak. “Mate, you okay?”
My face held confusion. “Um yeah why?” Tori was next. “You just been pretty silent the whole time you sat down. I chuckled to myself. “No, I’m fine. I was just thinking to myself that’s all.” She nodded and finished her food. I was thinking, but I didn’t want to say what. I don’t know why but the moment that Talia and me shared earlier this morning just kept flooding my mind and her comment to me earlier, “We’ll finish later.” Was she finally gonna let me in? I really hope so. I was the last one to finish my food since I was the last one to start eating. I drank the last little bit of tea in my cup and got up. I went in the kitchen were Talia was cleaning the dishes. “Hey you. About time you finished.” I chuckled and put my plate and cup in the sink. I decided to help her. “So what are we doing today since it’s our day off?” I pretend to think about it even though I knew exactly what we were doing today. “We’ll Liam thought we should have a mini pool party just with the boys and the girls. Whatta say?” She looked at me and smiled. “That sounds fun, I’d love too! Let’s go get the backyard ready.” I nodded and put up the last set of dishes.
In between me and Talia washing the dishes, everyone had took a shower except for us. We went upstairs and walked to our rooms. “See you in 20 minutes?” She nodded and went in her room. I went into my room and sat on the bed. I texted Liam to tell the rest of the girls about the mini pool party and to get dressed. Today was the day we were gonna get the girls back.
Talia’s POV.
I closed my door and sat on my bed. I knew exactly what Lou was thinking and I was thinking the same thing. We got so close but I chickened out. To be honest I was afraid. I didn’t want to mess up our friendship.I got up and started the shower. After about 10 minutes I got out and got dressed. I put on my pink crop top shirt with my white Aztec shorts. I decided to wear my bathing suit under it instead of underwear and a bra, I’m pretty sure the girls were doing it to. I put my hair into a loose fishtail and put my pearl studded headband on. I wasn’t sure about my tattoos showing because I didn’t like showing them. I don’t know why, I just don’t.
With 5 minutes left I put on a little lip gloss and waterproof mascara. I left my room the same time Louis did. He was wearing a sleeveless shirt and white swim trunks. He looked hot if I do say so myself. I couldn’t keep my eyes of his muscles. He came up to me and stopped. “Like what you see Talia?” My eyes met his and I smiled. I playfully smacked his arm and laughed. “Ha, you wish.” I turned around and we walked down the stairs. That boy does not know what he does to me. We met in the living room with the rest of the girls and boys. They were all waiting on us. “You guys finally done?” We both laughed and sat next to each other on the love seat. Ha, what a coincidence right? “Yeah were done now. I and Lou already set up the deck and the backyard so we are all ready to go.” They all nodded and we went outside.
Me and Lina was the last one to leave but she stopped me. “Talia...” I stopped and turned around to face her. “Yea LiLi what’s up?” She sighed and looked down. It took her a while to answer but she didn’t need to when I knew what this was about. “Ohhhhh…Lina stop it. You’re not okay? You’re perfectly fine the way you are. No one is gonna call you any names because you’re not overweight. You’re just curvy in the right places which makes Penelope, Azalea, and Tori jealous. Me and you have curves like no other girl!” She laughed and sighed. “Thanks Talz, I really appreciate it.” I smiled and pulled her into a hug. I pulled away and kissed her forehead. “You’re gonna be fine. Besides, Zayn’s been waiting to see how sexy you look in a bikini anyway so have fun and let loose.” She nodded and we walked outside. “Hey what took you girls so long?” I sent Zayn the death glare. He threw his hands in the air and smiled. I smiled back at him and laughed. “Okay let’s get this party started!” Tori yelled as she took off her top and shorts. She was wearing a strapless red bikini top and red and white stripped bikini bottoms. I looked to see Niall staring at her with wide eyes. I walked over to him and whispered in his ear. “She’s dying to know what you look like under that shirt.” I pulled away and a smirk grew on his face. He took his shirt off and jumped into the pool. That kid really is crazy. Now I had to admit Harry was toned and I knew Azalea LOVED toned guys. He had tattoos on his chest and arms which is a turn on for her as well. She also had a few tattoos to. She stripped off her clothes and both of them got into the water.
I turned around to see Lina standing there a little scared. I knew she wanted Zayn to like her but she was still self-conscious. I walked over to Zayn and pulled him to the side. “Hey Zayn?” He looked at me and smiled. “Yeah what’s up” I sighed and looked him in the eyes. “Lina is a little self-conscious about her body and she really wants you to like her but she’s afraid to show herself to you.” “How could I be? I mean look at her, she’s stunning.” I looked to see what he was looking at. Lina had took off her clothes and was now in her strapless yellow bikini set, showing off her butterfly tattoos that wrapped around her stomach area. “Go get her Zayn.” He smiled at me and went over to her. I saw him wrap his arms around her and pick her up. I love how easy Zayn could make Lina happy just by doing simple things. I was snapped out of my trance by Lou calling my name. “Talia?” I turned around and looked at him.
“What’s up?” My eyes met with his before they looked down to his chest. Man he was sexy. He had tattoo on his collarbone and a couple others on his arms. These just made him look even sexier. “Talia?” I was snapped out of my staring session by him calling my name. “You gonna join us?” Pointing to the pool were the rest of the boys and girls were.
“Oh...ah...um...yeah I’m coming.” He nodded and went back to the pool. I knew Louis was going to be watching me while I take off my clothes so why not have fun with it? I stood near the chairs were my towel and took off my sunglasses. I could feel his eyes on my just waiting. I took off my shirt slowly and then started on my pants. I was wearing a strapless bandeau bikini top and bottoms. The top made my boobs look just a little bigger then what they are which made me happy and the bottom shaped my butt just perfectly. I looked at Louis who was just eyeing me up and down and winked at him before walking over to the pool and standing there. He came over and smiled. “Hey Talia, how about you jump in?” I laughed and shook my head. “Uh noo I don’t think so. If I do then you have to jump in with me.” He laughed at my comment and smiled. Soon the rest of the group was cheering me and Louis on to jump in. He got out the pool and stood next to me. “Ready?” I nodded my head. He grabbed my hand and I looked down at our adjoined hands. I smiled to myself and the group counted down. “3…2…1 JUMP!” Me and Louis jumped in and we hit the water deep. Soon I came back up with my hand still in Louis. We met face to face and he smiled at me. “That was fun wasn’t it?” I smiled and laughed. “Yea, it was.” We stared into each other eyes before I felt someone tackle me into the water. It took me a while to come back up but I did. “Hey! WHAT THE HELL? Who did it?” Penelope raised her hand and quickly swam away. “PENELOPE COME BACK HERE!” Everyone was laughing as I chased after her. She got out of the pool and so did I. We ran around the pool until I caught up to her. “No! Let me go Talia!” She screamed and tried to pull away from me.
“Oh, I’m not gonna throw you into the water, Liam is.” She stopped moving as she saw Liam come out the water and came closer to her. “Liam if you do it I swear I’m gonna bite you!” He ignored her threat and picked her up. She screamed as she was thrown into the pool. We all laughed as she came back up. “LIAM I SAID NO!!!” He looked at her innocently before laughing.After about an hours of fun in the pool we decided to chill out on the chairs. I went inside to get something to drink and get some for the others. I came back out with a tray full of drinks to see all the chairs taken. Harry and Azalea shared one, Zayn and Lina shared one, Niall and Tori took separate ones, and Liam and Penelope shared one even though they kept taking petty hits at each other which I thought was cute. I passed out all the drinks and put the tray on the glass table next to Harry and Azalea. I looked around and no one had moved. I sighed. “Hey Talia, you can sit with me if you want?” I looked in Louis direction to see him smiling.
“Sure, I’d love to.” I walked over to him and he scooted up so I could sit at the bottom. I was way too tired to sit all the way up so I sat down and laid my head on his stomach area. I felt him tense up but relax as soon as he tense. Soon everyone was asleep and I was on my way. I looked up to see him looking down. We looked all around and were talking about how cute the others looked asleep with each other. “Ha, look at Harry and Azalea. They look like a cute couple I swear!” We both laughed at how close and cuddled up they were to each other. “Hey, what happen with Lina?” I looked up to him and sighed. “She was afraid to show off her body because she very self-conscious and when she is around boys she likes, she gets nervous.” He sighed. “I guess Zayn got her out of her comfort zone.” I followed to where he was pointing to and saw Lina laying next to Zayn with her head on his chest and her leg wrapped around his. He had his arms wrapped around her and they looked so perfect. “Aww, they look so cute.”
After an hour or 2 talking to Louis, we both started to get sleepy. I heard him talking but I soon drifted off to sleep. It felt good sleeping with him.
Louis POV.
“Talia?” I shook her shoulder to see if she was awake and she wasn’t. I smiled to myself at how cute she looked laying between my legs, and no not in THAT way. It looked like she was uncomfortable so I slowly moved myself from under her and picked her up. I laid her down and went inside the house. I went inside the closet and got out 5 sets of fluffy covers. I came back outside. I put the red covers on Harry and Azalea, the blue ones on Penelope and Liam, the yellow one on Zayn and Lina, and the purple one on Tori and Niall. I walked back to where I was laying with Talia. I scooted her over so I could lay back down. She instantly curled up to me and rested her head on my chest. I put the covers over us and put my arm around her. I felt her sigh and put her arm around my stomach. I smiled and closed my eyes. “Louis?” I opened my eyes and looked to my right to see Liam awake. “Yeah mate?” He smiled and sighed. “You think we got them?” I chuckled to myself and smiled. “Yeah, I think we got them good.” We both laughed and he went back to sleep soon after. I stared at the stars until I let sleep take over. This day couldn’t have gotten any better.
It was 7:00 A.M. I couldn’t go back to sleep. Today was us and the boys day off so we get to stay in bed all late.I fluff my pillows and laid back down. I kept twisting and turning but couldn’t get comfortable. After countless minutes of trying to go back to sleep, I decided to get up and go downstairs. I sat up and my feet hit the soft warm carpet. I still don’t know why the carpet was black but I didn’t care. I grabbed my phone and turned on the screen. “7: 15, just great.” I sighed and got up. I walked over to one of the chairs in my room and picked up one of my shirts and put it on. I slowly walked to the door, making sure not to make a sound. I opened it and quietly closed it. I turned around in the direction of the stairs.
Dim light from outside peeked through the curtains in the hallway as I made my way to the stairs. I heard footsteps from behind me and then a soft voice calling my name in a whisper. “Louis? Is that you?” I turned around and faced the small yet tall figure standing a few feet away from me. “Yeah? Who’s that?” I heard a chuckle and the figure made its way over to me. As the figure got closer, I saw long blonde hair and realized it was Penelope.
“Penelope? What are you doing up?” She stopped in front of me and I saw a slight smile on her face. “I could asked you the same thing. So I am. What are YOU doing up?” I could feel a smirk grow on my face. I had a habit of doing that. “I asked you first.” She laughed silently and sighed.
“I couldn’t sleep, you?” I nodded my head in agreement. “Same.” We both smiled. I pulled her into my side. “Well good morning then,” She chuckled and hugged me back. “So I’m guessing you’re going downstairs also?” She nodded her head ad we continue to walk towards the stairs. I felt Penelope stop which made me turn around and looked at her confused. “What wrong?” She sighed and titled her head. “Lou, can you carry me down the stairs pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?” Holding the E as she said it.
“Fine, but you owe me.” She jumped and cheered silently which earned a little chuckle from me. I turned around so she could get on my back. I felt her hop on and I continued my way down the stairs. Once we came to the bottom, she jumped off and hugged me. “Thanks Lou!” I smiled and nodded my head to let her know she was welcome. We both made our way to the living room. Halfway to the living room we heard the TV. “I guess someone is already down here.” She nodded and we continued to the living room.
When I turned a corner, I saw a figure laying on the long couch. I immediately recognized who it is, Talia. I recognized her laying style when she slept with me a couple nights ago. I smiled to myself knowing she looked so cute in that position. Penelope and I stood in the doorway watching her. After a couple minutes, I decided to call her name. “Talia?” She seemed startled and jumped, almost falling off the couch. Me and Penelope couldn’t hold back a laugh. “God you scared me!” We walked over to her and helped her up. “Sorry, didn’t mean to.” She looked up at us and smiled. “Its okay, what are you guys doing up?” Me and Penelope looked at each other before returning to Talia. “We’ll I couldn’t go back to sleep and Penelope just woke up early.” She nodded then patted the spots on each side of her for us to sit down.
“So what we watching?” I looked at Talia who eyes were glued on the TV. “Talia? Hello?” I waved my hand in her face. “Huh? Oh- uh yea what did you say?” I laughed at her for zoning out. “I said what are we watching?” She laughed and sighed. “Uhh, SpongeBob right now” I nodded my head and sat back on the couch. I sat crisscross on the sofa and spread my arms out so that my left arm was behind Talia, almost reached the right side of Penelope.
I felt her lay her head back on my arm. I smiled knowing how good she looks laying on my arm. After about an hour of TV watching, all of us were spread out everywhere. Penelope was laying upside down on the couch, Talia was spread out on the floor, and I was laying on the other sofa next to the one Penelope was laying on. I decided that it was time to eat because my stomach felt empty. I got up and walked past Talia and entered to kitchen which was around the corner from living room.The curtains were open and the sun was blazing through the window making everything look so beautiful. The light bounced off the steel counter and hit the wall creating a diamond effect.
I walked to the fridge and opened it. There was nothing that I saw in there and closed it. I went to the pantry and opened it. I saw the box of tea bags and took it out. I decided to make me and the girls some tea. I remembered that Talia and the girls don’t make tea like we do in Doncaster. I stood there trying to remember how they do it. After 5 minutes it finally came to me. I went to the bottom cabinets. I opened one of them and pulled out a pot. I came to the stove and turned it on. I went to the sink and filled the pot with water. I put it on the stove and went back to the box of tea bags. I took out 4 and tied them together so it would be easier to take out. I put it in the pot and put the top on the pot.
“You remembered.” I turned to see Talia standing there, leaning on the fridge.I smiled and nodded. “How could I forget?” She chuckled and came closer to me. She sat on the counter and faced me. She was looking in the direction of the pantry so the sun hit her face but not blinding her. I couldn’t help but stare at how pretty she looked. The sun making her eyes bright and sparkle. Outlining her long eyelashes. Illuminating her soft skin that I desperately wanted to touch so badly. She looked at me and smiled. “What? I know I look like crap.” I shook my head and came close to her, standing in front of her.
“No, you look fine. I promise.” She smiled and looked down, trying to hide her blush but the sun made it stand out. I smiled to myself knowing I could make her blush easily. She looked up at me and we just stared at each other. “Your eyes are so pretty Lou.” I smiled. “Well thank you Talia. So are yours.” She chuckled. I could tell she was blushing again so I decided to point it out. “Is that a blush I see Talia? Awhhh!” She playfully slap my arm and hid her face in her hands. “Awhh don’t hide it, I know you love it!” She chuckled and looked at me. We held each other’s look. I wish I could stay on this moment forever with her. So beautiful, so perfect, just like her. Our face was inches apart. I could feel her breath on my face. She kept looking at my eyes and my lips. I bit my top of my lip as she did the same.“Lou…” I was snapped out of my trance at my name being called. “Yeah?” Our eyes never left each other’s. “The tea.” She pointed to the tea and I turned around.
“Right… the tea.” We stayed like this for a little longer before I reluctantly pulled away. I turned around and cut off the stove. I picked up the pot and sat it on the other burner so it would stop boiling. I opened the cabinet above the stove and took out a plastic pitcher and sat it down. I could feel her eyes on me, every movement I made. I felt her eyes boar into my back like she was trying to read me. Was she really afraid of letting go and letting someone love her? I just hope she can let me in so I can show her. I won’t hurt her, I just wanna fix her, maker her better. I poured the sugar into the pitcher and then poured the tea into the picture as well. I grabbed a big spoon from the drawer and started to stir it. When I finished I put the spoon in the sink. I came back to where the pitcher was and put the top on it.
I opened the cabinet again and grabbed 3 coffee cups. I poured the tea in each cup and then put the tea in the fridge and looked around for the lemon. “Looking for the lemon Lou?” I turned and looked at her. “Yea, where is it?” She came and pointed to the top shelf way in the back. “Oh, thanks.” I smiled and she nodded. I pulled it out and poured a little bit in each cup then put it back. I handed her cup and pick up mines and Penelope. “Ready?” I nodded and we walked back into the living room. By everything that happened in the kitchen I forgot I was hungry. I sat back down on the couch I was laying on. Penelope got up and came towards me. “Thanks Lou!” She took the coffee cup from me and smiled. I nodded and smiled back at her. Talia sat on the couch next to Penelope and we all continued to watch SpongeBob.
I sat my cup on the floor and took my phone out my pajama pocket. I turned on the screen and read the alerts.
3 new text messages
1 voicemail
I decided to read the text messages. I had 1 from Harry, 1 from Azalea, and 1 from Liam. I decided to start with Harry.
Hazzapoo (sent at 7:45)
-Hey you up?
Louisxx
-Yea me, Penelope, and Talia. We downstairs. Come down here.
I exit the screen and clicked on Azalea’s new message.
My Lil Miss Red Headxx (sent at 8:00)
-Let me know if Talia is up or not, Thanks Loubear!
I smiled at her nickname for me.
Louisxx
-Yea she’s been up for a while. We all downstairs. Come down here, Harry is.
I should also let you know that I know Azalea likes Harry. It’s obvious and plus she told me. I opened the last text message from Liam and read it.
Daddy Liam
-hey I know this is early but text me back when you get this, I have an idea on how to get the girls back.
Louisxx
-I been up for a while now so you’re good. Good, I been up all morning thinking of one. You should come down here though, Penelope and Talia are down here so come on down!
After replying to all of them I checked the time. It was 9:00 A.M. I locked the screen and put my phone back in my pocket. I sighed and sunk further into the couch. Man, this couch was the most comfy couch I’ve ever sat in. I decided to let the girls know that Harry, Liam, and Azalea are coming down. “Hey guys, Harry, Liam, and Azalea are on their way down here just to let you know.” They both nodded and continued watching TV. Not to long after I told them, I heard a set of footsteps coming in. I looked up to see Azalea, Harry, and Liam walking in
“Hey Guys, about time you came down here.” They all looked at me and smiled. Harry and Liam came to sit next to me on each side. Azalea, Penelope, and Talia all sat on the floor a little in front of us. It was now 9:30 A.M. In between that time Zayn and Niall came down and sat next to us. 10 minutes after them, Tori and Lina came downstairs. They sat with they girls on the floor and they were talking about something but I couldn’t hear them. I figured this was the time for Liam to share his idea. “Hey Liam, what about that idea?” He looked at me along with the rest of the lads except he knew what I was talking about. “Oh right! Okay so you know Talia has a pool in the back and stuff right?” The lads and I all nodded our heads. I gestured to him to keep going. “Well a couple days ago I came downstairs shirtless and Penelope was down here. To sum it all up, she couldn’t resist staring at me. So I was thinking what if we had a pool party just with us lads and the girls so we could get them back for what happened at rehearsals. I know they won’t be able to resist us so why not.” I looked at the lads who thought about it for a minute before a smirk grew on my face while looking at Talia. “Oh yeah, this is gonna be fun.” They all nodded and looked at the girls. Azalea looked back and winked at us. “From what I can tell, they have something up their sleeves also.” The boys nodded while staring at the girls.
Countless hours of TV watching, we decided to make breakfast. I was about to tell them when Talia stood up and spoke. “Okay what do you guys want to eat this morning?” I got up and came to her. “Me and the lads are gonna cook breakfast so you don’t have too.” She chuckled and sighed. “Really? You guys? Are you sure?” I tilted my head to the side and smiled. “Uh yeah I think we can handle it Mrs. Worry pants.” She busted out laughing along with the rest of the girls. “Okay if you want.”
She went back to sit down and me and the boys got up and went into the kitchen. “So what should we cook?” They boys looked at me before going I’m separate areas to find food. Liam and Harry went to the fridge. Zayn and Niall went to the pantry. I went to the pantry to see if there’s anything. After looking all of us met back at the island in the middle of the kitchen floor. “So whatta got?” We all looked at each other before speaking. Liam spoke first. “Well me and Harry decided on eggs and bacon.” He placed the eggs and bacon on the counter. “Me and Niall found some grits.” I nodded and spoke next. “I found waffles and toaster strudels.”I sighed. “Hold on a minute, okay?” They all nodded and I went into the living room. “Hey guys what do you want to eat?” They all looked back at me before answering. “Uhhhh… Just bacon, eggs, and grits pleaseeee, thank you Lou.” I smiled at Penelope and left. I went back into the kitchen and stood back in my spot.
“Okay so were cooking eggs, bacon, and grits.” They nodded and put the waffles and toaster strudels away. I started the eggs and Liam put the bacon in the oven. While they eggs were cooking, I started more tea. I put it on the burner beside the eggs and turned the burner on. Harry got started on the grits while I finished the eggs. I turned off the burner for the eggs and sat the pan of eggs on the counter. “Excuse me Harry.” He looked at me then smiled before moving out of my way so I could get the tea. I did the usual tea making then sat it on the counter with the eggs. I went to one of the top cabinets and pulled out 10 plates then grabbed some forks from the droor and sat it on the counter with the rest of the stuff. Harry finished the grits and Liam took out the bacon then sat it on the counter with the other food. “OKAY FOOD IS READY!” I yelled loud enough to make sure the girls could hear me. They all came rushing in and got in a line. “Okay so I guess I’ll be fixing the plates then?” Everyone looked at me before nodding then laughing.
One by one I fixed everyone’s plates. “I feel like a cafeteria lady.” They all laughed at me while I was really being serious. I turn to hand the next person their plate, except that next person was Talia. My smile was wiped off my face but quickly came back on. She smiled and came close to me. “We’ll finish later.” She whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. I swear NO GIRL have ever made me feel this way but she was so different. She turned to walk away and I was left standing there still thinking about what happened earlier today in the kitchen. Last was Liam and Penelope. They were in some deep conversation about converses, I don’t know why but they were.“Uh hello guys?” They both stopped and turn to me. “Your plates?” Realization came on their faces as they came to get their plates. I laughed as a blush crept on Penelope face. It sucks that her blush was so visible, we always pointed it out but I don’t think she cares.
I was the only one left in the kitchen so I was fixing my plate. Once I finished, I started making mine when I heard someone coming in. I turned around and it was Azalea. “Hey Loubear, what’s taking you so long?” I laughed and smiled. “I have to fix you guys tea also Azzy.” She chuckled and came over to me. “Well I’ll help you then.” I nodded and she picked up each cup and put it on a tray. When I finished pouring the tea and putting them on the tray, I picked the tray up plus my plate and me and Azalea made our way into the dining area. She passed out the cups and I sat the tray on the floor next to me. I took the only empty seat which was in between Liam and Zayn and across from Talia. As I was eating, I could feel everyone’s eyes on me. I don’t know why, I didn’t do anything. I decided to look up. I was right – everyone eyes was on me. “Uhh….what?” Liam was the first to speak. “Mate, you okay?”
My face held confusion. “Um yeah why?” Tori was next. “You just been pretty silent the whole time you sat down. I chuckled to myself. “No, I’m fine. I was just thinking to myself that’s all.” She nodded and finished her food. I was thinking, but I didn’t want to say what. I don’t know why but the moment that Talia and me shared earlier this morning just kept flooding my mind and her comment to me earlier, “We’ll finish later.” Was she finally gonna let me in? I really hope so. I was the last one to finish my food since I was the last one to start eating. I drank the last little bit of tea in my cup and got up. I went in the kitchen were Talia was cleaning the dishes. “Hey you. About time you finished.” I chuckled and put my plate and cup in the sink. I decided to help her. “So what are we doing today since it’s our day off?” I pretend to think about it even though I knew exactly what we were doing today. “We’ll Liam thought we should have a mini pool party just with the boys and the girls. Whatta say?” She looked at me and smiled. “That sounds fun, I’d love too! Let’s go get the backyard ready.” I nodded and put up the last set of dishes.
In between me and Talia washing the dishes, everyone had took a shower except for us. We went upstairs and walked to our rooms. “See you in 20 minutes?” She nodded and went in her room. I went into my room and sat on the bed. I texted Liam to tell the rest of the girls about the mini pool party and to get dressed. Today was the day we were gonna get the girls back.
Talia’s POV.
I closed my door and sat on my bed. I knew exactly what Lou was thinking and I was thinking the same thing. We got so close but I chickened out. To be honest I was afraid. I didn’t want to mess up our friendship.I got up and started the shower. After about 10 minutes I got out and got dressed. I put on my pink crop top shirt with my white Aztec shorts. I decided to wear my bathing suit under it instead of underwear and a bra, I’m pretty sure the girls were doing it to. I put my hair into a loose fishtail and put my pearl studded headband on. I wasn’t sure about my tattoos showing because I didn’t like showing them. I don’t know why, I just don’t.
With 5 minutes left I put on a little lip gloss and waterproof mascara. I left my room the same time Louis did. He was wearing a sleeveless shirt and white swim trunks. He looked hot if I do say so myself. I couldn’t keep my eyes of his muscles. He came up to me and stopped. “Like what you see Talia?” My eyes met his and I smiled. I playfully smacked his arm and laughed. “Ha, you wish.” I turned around and we walked down the stairs. That boy does not know what he does to me. We met in the living room with the rest of the girls and boys. They were all waiting on us. “You guys finally done?” We both laughed and sat next to each other on the love seat. Ha, what a coincidence right? “Yeah were done now. I and Lou already set up the deck and the backyard so we are all ready to go.” They all nodded and we went outside.
Me and Lina was the last one to leave but she stopped me. “Talia...” I stopped and turned around to face her. “Yea LiLi what’s up?” She sighed and looked down. It took her a while to answer but she didn’t need to when I knew what this was about. “Ohhhhh…Lina stop it. You’re not okay? You’re perfectly fine the way you are. No one is gonna call you any names because you’re not overweight. You’re just curvy in the right places which makes Penelope, Azalea, and Tori jealous. Me and you have curves like no other girl!” She laughed and sighed. “Thanks Talz, I really appreciate it.” I smiled and pulled her into a hug. I pulled away and kissed her forehead. “You’re gonna be fine. Besides, Zayn’s been waiting to see how sexy you look in a bikini anyway so have fun and let loose.” She nodded and we walked outside. “Hey what took you girls so long?” I sent Zayn the death glare. He threw his hands in the air and smiled. I smiled back at him and laughed. “Okay let’s get this party started!” Tori yelled as she took off her top and shorts. She was wearing a strapless red bikini top and red and white stripped bikini bottoms. I looked to see Niall staring at her with wide eyes. I walked over to him and whispered in his ear. “She’s dying to know what you look like under that shirt.” I pulled away and a smirk grew on his face. He took his shirt off and jumped into the pool. That kid really is crazy. Now I had to admit Harry was toned and I knew Azalea LOVED toned guys. He had tattoos on his chest and arms which is a turn on for her as well. She also had a few tattoos to. She stripped off her clothes and both of them got into the water.
I turned around to see Lina standing there a little scared. I knew she wanted Zayn to like her but she was still self-conscious. I walked over to Zayn and pulled him to the side. “Hey Zayn?” He looked at me and smiled. “Yeah what’s up” I sighed and looked him in the eyes. “Lina is a little self-conscious about her body and she really wants you to like her but she’s afraid to show herself to you.” “How could I be? I mean look at her, she’s stunning.” I looked to see what he was looking at. Lina had took off her clothes and was now in her strapless yellow bikini set, showing off her butterfly tattoos that wrapped around her stomach area. “Go get her Zayn.” He smiled at me and went over to her. I saw him wrap his arms around her and pick her up. I love how easy Zayn could make Lina happy just by doing simple things. I was snapped out of my trance by Lou calling my name. “Talia?” I turned around and looked at him.
“What’s up?” My eyes met with his before they looked down to his chest. Man he was sexy. He had tattoo on his collarbone and a couple others on his arms. These just made him look even sexier. “Talia?” I was snapped out of my staring session by him calling my name. “You gonna join us?” Pointing to the pool were the rest of the boys and girls were.
“Oh...ah...um...yeah I’m coming.” He nodded and went back to the pool. I knew Louis was going to be watching me while I take off my clothes so why not have fun with it? I stood near the chairs were my towel and took off my sunglasses. I could feel his eyes on my just waiting. I took off my shirt slowly and then started on my pants. I was wearing a strapless bandeau bikini top and bottoms. The top made my boobs look just a little bigger then what they are which made me happy and the bottom shaped my butt just perfectly. I looked at Louis who was just eyeing me up and down and winked at him before walking over to the pool and standing there. He came over and smiled. “Hey Talia, how about you jump in?” I laughed and shook my head. “Uh noo I don’t think so. If I do then you have to jump in with me.” He laughed at my comment and smiled. Soon the rest of the group was cheering me and Louis on to jump in. He got out the pool and stood next to me. “Ready?” I nodded my head. He grabbed my hand and I looked down at our adjoined hands. I smiled to myself and the group counted down. “3…2…1 JUMP!” Me and Louis jumped in and we hit the water deep. Soon I came back up with my hand still in Louis. We met face to face and he smiled at me. “That was fun wasn’t it?” I smiled and laughed. “Yea, it was.” We stared into each other eyes before I felt someone tackle me into the water. It took me a while to come back up but I did. “Hey! WHAT THE HELL? Who did it?” Penelope raised her hand and quickly swam away. “PENELOPE COME BACK HERE!” Everyone was laughing as I chased after her. She got out of the pool and so did I. We ran around the pool until I caught up to her. “No! Let me go Talia!” She screamed and tried to pull away from me.
“Oh, I’m not gonna throw you into the water, Liam is.” She stopped moving as she saw Liam come out the water and came closer to her. “Liam if you do it I swear I’m gonna bite you!” He ignored her threat and picked her up. She screamed as she was thrown into the pool. We all laughed as she came back up. “LIAM I SAID NO!!!” He looked at her innocently before laughing.After about an hours of fun in the pool we decided to chill out on the chairs. I went inside to get something to drink and get some for the others. I came back out with a tray full of drinks to see all the chairs taken. Harry and Azalea shared one, Zayn and Lina shared one, Niall and Tori took separate ones, and Liam and Penelope shared one even though they kept taking petty hits at each other which I thought was cute. I passed out all the drinks and put the tray on the glass table next to Harry and Azalea. I looked around and no one had moved. I sighed. “Hey Talia, you can sit with me if you want?” I looked in Louis direction to see him smiling.
“Sure, I’d love to.” I walked over to him and he scooted up so I could sit at the bottom. I was way too tired to sit all the way up so I sat down and laid my head on his stomach area. I felt him tense up but relax as soon as he tense. Soon everyone was asleep and I was on my way. I looked up to see him looking down. We looked all around and were talking about how cute the others looked asleep with each other. “Ha, look at Harry and Azalea. They look like a cute couple I swear!” We both laughed at how close and cuddled up they were to each other. “Hey, what happen with Lina?” I looked up to him and sighed. “She was afraid to show off her body because she very self-conscious and when she is around boys she likes, she gets nervous.” He sighed. “I guess Zayn got her out of her comfort zone.” I followed to where he was pointing to and saw Lina laying next to Zayn with her head on his chest and her leg wrapped around his. He had his arms wrapped around her and they looked so perfect. “Aww, they look so cute.”
After an hour or 2 talking to Louis, we both started to get sleepy. I heard him talking but I soon drifted off to sleep. It felt good sleeping with him.
Louis POV.
“Talia?” I shook her shoulder to see if she was awake and she wasn’t. I smiled to myself at how cute she looked laying between my legs, and no not in THAT way. It looked like she was uncomfortable so I slowly moved myself from under her and picked her up. I laid her down and went inside the house. I went inside the closet and got out 5 sets of fluffy covers. I came back outside. I put the red covers on Harry and Azalea, the blue ones on Penelope and Liam, the yellow one on Zayn and Lina, and the purple one on Tori and Niall. I walked back to where I was laying with Talia. I scooted her over so I could lay back down. She instantly curled up to me and rested her head on my chest. I put the covers over us and put my arm around her. I felt her sigh and put her arm around my stomach. I smiled and closed my eyes. “Louis?” I opened my eyes and looked to my right to see Liam awake. “Yeah mate?” He smiled and sighed. “You think we got them?” I chuckled to myself and smiled. “Yeah, I think we got them good.” We both laughed and he went back to sleep soon after. I stared at the stars until I let sleep take over. This day couldn’t have gotten any better.
