Priceless

* one week later *

Being on the road with the guys isn't that bad. They are all very sweet. Right now Harry told me that they were going to talk to their management because they said there is something they have to do.

I don't know why I have to go with them, but oh well.

* several hours later *

Hey guys, how's the tour going?

It's going great thank you.

First of all, I wanted to tell you to make a bigger appearance on stage. You guys have recently been a bit too calm and there isn't enough headlines about you. More silly things.

Yes sir. Anything else?

If there are any parties during that three week break you guys are getting, make sure to attend them all, or at least as many as you can. The more you attend and socialize with ladies, the more money you make. You need to be out there.

Okay.

And right now I'd like to speak to Liam and Jess.
You two were photographed last week holding hands while going to eat breakfast. There were many articles written, and the fandom went insane. I need more of that. YOU need more of that.

Me and Liam looked at each other, confused.
So what are we supposed to do?

I don't know. Go on public dates. Tour a city. Kiss. Whatever it takes.

What if I say that I don't want to be a part of this? Why can't Liam find another girl to be with? I am good this way.

Jessica you need to understand that we can't take back all those photos, and it will stir more drama since you are Harry's cousin. I ne-

I ended the video call right after Simon said that. Maybe I don't want to do this! I don't want to be part of their game. I don't do this shit.

I ran out of the small livingroom and jumped into the small bed. I just want to go deaf right now. I don't want to hear anything that they have to say.

It's my life and not their's to control!

I know I wouldn't have a say in this. So I cried. I couldn't hold back all the rage I felt. This was too much to bare.

"Jess?" That was Louis. He doesn't know yet. None of them do.

"What happened?"

"S-simon says he wants me and Liam to date for your fucking publicity! I don't want to take part in this! None of it!"

"I'm sure there's a way around it. And look, if you don't want to do it you don't have to. No on-"

I ran up to Louis and engulfed him in a hug that knocked out his breath.

"Lou, I don't want to do this."

He hugged me back slowly and rocked us sideways. One of his arms was around my waist and the other was petting my hair.

I could hear his heartbeat, and I tried to keep up with it so I could calm down too.

I lift my head off his chest and look at him. He smiles at me and kisses my forehead. In return I kiss his cheek.

He hugs me again and turns around to leave.

"Louis"

"Yeah?"

I jog to him and kiss him softly on the lips.

At first he doesn't react, but he takes his hand off of the door and holds me close. I moan into the kiss when he deepens it, and his hands find my bottom. He stops there, as if he's waiting for me to move them, but I don't. I place my hands over his and guide them.

My heart was racing by now. And I know his was too. He pushes me up against the door and puts his hands above my shoulders, while mine rest on his chest.

We finally pull away to breathe, and he smiles and kisses me one more time.

"I won't let them. Even if it does happen, I know that it's just for the papers. I want more where that came from." He winks at me and we continue our makeout session like there's no tomorrow.
