twenty-one - Destiny

"And what does that mean for you?", Niall asked carefully.

What should I answer? I didn't know it myself! I shrugged my shoulders so he understood.

"But do you like one of them or do you like her or was it a one-night stand?", Harry asked.

"Onetime", Liam answered for me.

I tried my best not to look at him or he would see that it actually hurt me. Due to the fact that I wanted to spend time with Louis again they shouldn't think that Liam hurt me with those words.

"And you couldn't just find another girl to have fun?", Louis suddenly got louder.

"I think you should talk about it at home", Em intervened so I whispered a little "thank you".

"You aren't even dating, Louis", Liam told him easily.

"Can you stop please? I don't want you to fight. Not because of me."

Both of them stayed quiet from that moment on. We only sang a few songs after Niall had suggested that, everyone enjoyed that. When we arrived on the bottom again, Louis suddenly took my hand to walk next to me. Of course there were more negative comments about me and my sister. Her, Harry, Louis and I sat down in the one car, Zayn, Liam and Niall in the other one. A look at my phone and I saw Twitter exploding. The fans were talking about us holding hands. 


When we arrived at home, Liam and Zayn went to their rooms and Em and I changed our clothes. The weather was nice so we laid in the sun.

"What's going on with you and Liam now?", she asked concerned.

"I told Louis the truth already in the morning. I really like him and hope he can forgive me somehow. But I don't expect him to do that."

"I'm sure he appreciates you being honest", she tried to calm me down, "And he took your hands."

"Girls, come into the water", Niall called us so we jumped into the pool.


"Do you have a minute?", Lou asked me a few hours later after we've finished our dinner from Nandos.

"Of course", my voice cracked a little, we haven't talked since I told him about it.

Now I was the one following him to his room. He sat down at the edge of the bed, I did the same.

"I think it's really stupid what happened. Liam knew that I like you but that's something I have to talk about to him. Didn't you know that I like you or didn't you just care about it?"

"I.. Louis.. I felt like we were becoming closer and that there was something starting between us but I had no idea if you really feel the same as I do because you just broke up with your girlfriend. Emily thought you and I may be so close because both of us feel lonely."

"I do like you and I was hurt by what happened but it's my fault somehow. I should have told you earlier."

"No, Lou, no! It's not your fault. I was too much thinking about it all instead of just doing what I thought what was right."

"We can't change it so.. I've been thinking about it and-"

"You can also take more yourself more time."

"I know", he chuckled, "But I know what I want. I want to be with you, Des."

"Are you sure?", I questioned unbelieving.

"Of course I am. I like you, Des. I would have told you when we kissed for the first time but I was scared to push you away since it was pretty early. But if you don't want-"

"No, no! I don't have feelings for Liam. I like you, Louis. I'm so lucky you just said that. I enjoyed every kiss back then and was so lucky that we didn't stop behind closed doors", I whispered happily until he finally kissed me tenderly.


The next day Gemma, Lottie, Lou including Lux and Perrie visited us. Liam brought Sophia. Em and Gemma were talking constantly, Zayn and Perrie enjoyed their time together and the boys and I played with newborn Lux.

"Hey, guys", Louis started.

We thought about it if we should tell them about our relationship or if we wanted to keep it to ourselves for now. The second option would be quite difficult so we were about to tell them now.

"Long story short, Des and I are a couple now", Louis grinned keeping me close to him.

Everyone besides Lottie was rejoiced over the news. She couldn't even fake a smile. Even Liam showed his support! Okay, he couldn't be mad about it in front of Sophia but he told everyone that he didn't like me that way. Lottie dragged Lou with her.


"She's slept with Liam, Lou! Get rid of her!"

"You talk about her as if she's a thing. How do you even know that?", Louis replied annoyed.

"Zayn was talking to Perrie."

"And you eavesdrop on them? Just to let you know, I really like your brother. I'm not playing any games", I intervened staying friendly.

"She's right, Lots. It's really exhausting when you try to tear us apart."

"What? But-"

"I noticed that weeks ago, don't worry. I know you wanted to harm us when you made her kiss Liam in front of me. Just stay out of my relationships from now on."

"She made you believe that!"

"I didn't, Lottie. I thought Liam would hate me but now we're just stronger than before. You're right about the fact that I don't deserve him but I'm so grateful."

"Ugh", she groaned in annoyance walking over to Perrie.

"Thank you that you don't hate me, Lou", I muttered still feeling guilty.

Instead he took my hands in his looking deeply into my eyes.

"I was angry and especially jealous but now you're with me. What else do I want?"

"I'll try and talk to Lottie", I promised him because the situation affected him without a thought.


"Can we talk, Lottie?", I asked her friendly.

"Are you going to leave Louis alone?", she still replied angrily.

"No, I'm not. But I would love to have a better relationship with you. Our fights affect Louis and I know that I am definitely not innocent. I'm sorry for what I did but I can't change it. I offered Louis to stay away from them but he was the one who made the first step for our relationship so I am really glad that he forgave me. So it would mea a lot to me if we could start over or if you even gave me a chance to do so. We could go shopping tomorrow", I suggested.

"You really my brother, don't you?"

"Of course, I couldn't even play games when it comes to feelings", I answered her honestly, "But I understand you really well. If Emily had a boyfriend, I would want to make sure he treats her right as well."

"Okay, then let's go shopping tomorrow", she agree even giving me a smile.

"Thank you", I hugged her luckily.
