So Close In Time
LOUIS POV.
I laid there. In my bed. Alone. In this silent dead house. My mind never left her. I wanted her back, I needed her back so she could be with me. I was going to take her to the celebrity ball tonight. I had everything planned out. The greeting, the dance, and the garden where I would confess to her my love but looks like I won’t get that chance now. My mind rushes back to be when I told her I loved her as she slowly drifted out of life into a pit of darkness. I’m not sure if she heard me but I wanted her too, I really did. I sighed out loud and turned my head to the clock. 8:00 p.m. Great. 2 more hours before the ball starts. I guess I should get ready. As I sat up, my phone vibrated, earning a groan from me.
I picked it up and looked at the screen. It was from Liam.
Liam
-Get ready, the whole crew is coming over to set us up. See ya in 10.
I sighed as I remembered the whole crew was coming over to get us ready. By the whole crew I mean, makeup crew, wardrobe crew, and Lou. I got up and went to the bathroom. I turned out the light and looked into the mirror. I had bags around my eyes, my hair was a big mess, my skin seemed to drain in color, and my eyes just didn’t hold them same blue people were used to. Now I know what the boys and girls were saying about my appearance. I started the shower and stayed in for 15 minutes. I turned off the water and got out. I dried off and put on some house clothes. As soon as I left my room the doorbell rang. I went downstairs and opened it, revealing the WHOLE crew, including the boys. “Aye mate! You ready to get ready?” Harry said, a gleaming smile on his face. I managed to crack one on and nodded. “Uh...yea yea sure I’m ready.” He looked at me with worried eyes before sighing me and pulling me to the side. “You sure Louis? I know you’re still messed up from the “accident” that happen-“I stopped him, holding my hand up. “Harry, I am fine! I promise. You don’t have to worry okay? I’ll be okay.” He smiled and nodded his head. “You’re positive?” I nodded and chuckled. We both left and went up to the spare room Talia had. She told me she never knew what to do with this room so we could use it got anything we needed. Everything was set up and ready to go. The rack held our clothes on it with signs, stating our names.
While Zayn and Niall were getting dress and fitted for their suits, Harry and Liam were getting their hair prepped up. I heard my name called which caused me to turn and look in that direction. “Your next!” I walked over to a woman who looked like she was in her mid 20’s with auburn hair and green eyes. “Hi, I’m Addie and I’ll be your stylist for today” Someone shouted her name from behind us as I sat down, facing the mirror. “Addie we might need you again!” She turned around and threw a thumbs up. She turned back around and by the way her face looked, she was stressed and pissed. I stopped her and placed my hand or hers. We looked at each other through the mirror. “Just relax, everything will be okay, alright?” She seem to calm down a little, nodding her head with a smile. As she was doing my hair and touch ups on my face, we joked and laughed about different stuff, enjoying each other’s company.
“Okay all done!” I looked at myself through the mirror and smiled widely. “Wow I look great! See nothing to be stressed about now was there?” She giggled and shook her head, curls bouncing in the process. I stood up and faced her, slightly towering her. “Thanks Addie, you did great.” She smiled and nodded. “You’re welcome and thanks.” I smiled back and hugged her. She hugged back and we pulled away. “Well if you need me, I’ll be over there fixing up Niall.” I nodded and walked over to where my clothes were. I guess everyone else was dressed considering my clothes were the only one on the rack. I picked them up and went into the bathroom. I closed the door and sat the clothes on the counter, leaning on it with both hands. I sighed and looked at myself through the mirror. This guy in the mirror looked fine but honestly, I wasn’t. This wasn’t me. I’m not happy. To tell the truth, I’m fucking miserable right now. I knew that if I acted in such a melancholy manner then I would ruin everyone else’s night so I sucked it up and changed into the outfit I was given, Look at myself in the mirror one more time, making sure there was no hint of sadness in my eyes or held in my facial expression for that matter. I pulled a smile onto my face and opened the door, revealing myself to the rest of the people out. All their eyes landed on me, making me feel slightly uncomfortable. I cleared my throat and walked over to one of the empty seats. Soon every got back to doing everything that they were originally doing. I sat there, zoning out to nothing but a void, a darkness. My mind roamed to thoughts that would never make sense to me.
LIAMS POV.
As I sat in the chair waiting for the girl to finish my hair, I thought about how we were going to tell Louis that Talia was awake and doing very well. According to Harry, Azalea has it all figured out. I don’t know how she is going to do it but it should be good if it’s in her hands. “Okay I’m done.” My eyes met her and I smiled genuinely. “Thanks, it looks great.” She smiled back and walked off. I got up and turned around, my eyes finding Louis as he sat on the couch, apparently zoned out. I studied his body posture. He was sitting low into the couch, hands on his lap with his legs spread out. His eyes were glued to the floor as if he was looking for something but couldn’t seem to find it. I decided to see what was picking his brain.
I walked over to him and sat down. He looked up at me and smiled, just enough to cover the sadness in his eyes. “You okay?” He nodded, never once looking away from me. “Yea I’m fine.” I sighed and stared back at him. “Don’t pull that stuff with me Louis.” He looked back at the floor with no emotion. “I know you’re thinking about her and that you want her here. But don’t worry. I guarantee you this night will get better.” He looked back up at me confused. “What do you mean?” I smiled back at him, grabbing his shoulder. “Oh you’ll see. Just trust me.” I patted his shoulder then got up and left.
LINA’S POV.
We waited and waited for one of the boys text to let us know they left so we could all get ready. We all were in Penelope’s room since it wasn’t on the other side of the room all the boys and other people were in. Nothing but silence took over the room as we sat, some of us in chairs and some of us on the floor. I was anxiously waiting for this night to come and Talia being awake made it even better. Now Louis could finally be happy. He could finally return to the normal happy Louis that we were all use to. My phone ringing snapped me out of my thoughts. Everyone’s eyes met mine as they looked back to me and my phone. I stood up and grabbed it off the dresser, swiping the answer button.
“Hello?”
“Hey babe,”
It was Zayn. I smiled into the phone.
“Are you guys gone yet?”
“Yea we just left. You guys can get ready now.”
“Okay thanks.”
“Welcome, see ya there gorgeous.”
“Okay bye Hun!”
I hung up the phone, the smile never leaving my face as I turned to them and nodded my head. “We can get ready now.”They all let out the heavy breath they probably been holding in for a while now out. I chuckled to myself as I made my way to the closet. I opened it, revealing all of our dresses, shoes, and the jewelry we were going to wear. I took mine out and went behind the changing divider. I stripped myself of my clothes and slipped on the tight fitting dress. After what felt like 20 minutes, I finally got my boobs into the dress and smooth down the train the dress. I stepped from behind the changing divider and walked over to the girls who looked at me wide-eyed. “Oh my god Lina you look amazing!” I smiled at them and looked in the mirror. Wow. I did look amazing. Over the weeks that Talia was in a coma, I slimmed down a bit due to the sadness I was going through. It did make up for it though.
“Who’s doing hair?” Penelope raised her hand with the biggest smile I ever seen. I chuckled and walked with her to her bathroom. I always loved Penelope’s bathroom, it was so spacious and pretty. Soothing like almost. I sat in the chair as Penelope got started on my hair. Tonight was really going to be a good night
TALIA’S POV.
I waited for the other girls to finish getting dressed and getting their hair done. I stood up from my previous sitting position and walked over to the closet, looking at the dress I was going to wear tonight. A crimson red gown with embedded sparkly detail on the bodice and wrapping around the dress. It was beautiful. I picked it up and went behind the changing divider. I hung it up and unzip the zipper. I put my hair in a ponytail so it wouldn’t get in my way. I took off my clothes and put on the gorgeous dress. It fit me perfectly.
I seemed pretty quiet out in the room so I guess everyone was finished. “Talia are you done yet?” I sighed and made sure the dress was right. “Yea im done.” I stepped from behind the divider and faced the girls. They all looked shocked yet happy. “Wow. Talia you look stunning.” I smiled at Tori who mouth was agape which made me laugh a little. “Well thank you, you look stunning as well.” She closed her mouth and smiled, earning another laugh from me. Azalea walked out from the bathroom and stopping once she seen me. “Oh my goodness Talia you look amazing! See I told you that was the right size Tori.” She looked over to Tori who had her tongue stuck out at Azalea. “You guys are crazy.” I shook my head while laughing.
“Penelope is ready for you in the bathroom girl.” I thanked her and walked into the bathroom. I sat down and waited for Penelope to do something with my hair. “So what are you going to do to this mess of hair?” She chuckled and plugged in the flat iron. “You’ll see.” I groaned at that which made her laugh even more. She knew that I hated surprises, I just don’t like them.
*20 minutes later*
“All done!” I looked up from my phone and at her in the mirror. Wow she did my hair justice. She stood back and eyes my hair, satisfied. I stood up and looked myself over in the mirror. I honestly felt beautiful tonight and was glad I wouldn’t have to miss it. I walked out and into the room with the rest of the girls.
“You guys ready?” They all nodded and stood up, heading for the door. I turned off the light and closed Penelope’s door. On our way towards the stairs, I decided to stop in my room for a minute. “Hey guys I forgot something, I’ll be right back okay?” They turned to look at me and nodded. I waited for them to go downstairs. Once I heard all the clacking of heels far away, I went inside my room and closed the door. I walked over to my bed and bent down to grab the secret box I kept under my bed. I pulled it out and sat it on my bed. I took the key from one of my drawers. I put the key in the lock, turning it, making the top pop open. I opened the box all the way, revealing everything I keep in there that’s personal to me. I pulled out a silver lace bracelet also given to me from Anabelle. I slipped it on, smiling to myself.
I quickly put everything away. I left my room, closing the door on my way out. I made my way downstairs where the rest of the girls were waiting. “Sorry guys I had to do something, ready?” They all nodded and we headed for the door. There was already a limo waiting for us. I got in after Lina and sat down. The door finally closed after every one of us got in. I sat in between Azalea and Lina.
“You ready for this?” Azalea’s question caught me off guard. I sighed, looking down at my hands then back up at her with a smile on my face. “Yea, I’m ready.” Then the limo pulled off. Tonight was the night that I let out what I wanted to say for so long.
Tonight’s the night I finally see Louis Tomlinson, my love.
I laid there. In my bed. Alone. In this silent dead house. My mind never left her. I wanted her back, I needed her back so she could be with me. I was going to take her to the celebrity ball tonight.
