Chapter 4
"So...who were you talking to today?" Morgann asked, plopping down with a glass of (you guessed it) iced tea.
"No one important." I lied.
I suddenly remebered Liam and grabbed my phone to text him. Morgann leaned over my shoulder to see who I was texting, and I yanked my phone away, causing Morgann fall and spill her tea all over herself.
I started laughing and taking pictures. This was going on Instagram.
"Uncalled for." Morgann said, squinting at me and crossing her arms. "It doesn't matter though cause I know who you're texting!" She sang.
"Do you now?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.
"Some guy named Liam. Is he hot? Like Liam Payne?" Morgann questioned, standing up and brushing the ice off of her.
I could feel my body go stiff at the mention of Liam's name, I just prayed Morgann didn't notice..
"Wait...it's not the Liam Payne is it?" She added.
I looked away but I could feel her eyes boring a hole through my skull.
"Yes okay!" I shouted, giving in.
Morgann's face changed from curious to offended in a second.
"What?" I asked, confused.
"You had Liam Payne's phone number and didn't give it to me?!" Morgann squealed.
"News flash! You have a boyfriend!" I yelled. "Now please let me text in peace."
To: Liam :)
Message: Hey Liam! It's Chloe.
I sat back and waited for Liam to reply. We were watching The X-Factor and it was making me anxious about tomorrow. I zoned out for a minute and just...thought.
*FLASHBACK*
I sighed and watched as my friends twirled around with their boyfriends and dates. I picked up my cup of punch and swished it around.
"Hey there." I looked up and saw my hero: Louis Tomlinson. He always saved the day.
"Where's your date?" I asked. I was depressed, because guess what? My date had left me...AGAIN!
"She's dancing with some jock." Louis replied, still smiling. He extended his hand.
I knew this routine; I grabbed his hand and we walked to the dance floor together. I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"You are amazing." I stated, looking up at him. Even though we were both seniors he was still 3 inches taller than me.
"What do you mean?" Louis asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
"I mean you always save the day: the eighth grade dance, tonight...even my tenth birthday party." I said, feeling myself blush as we made direct eye contact.
"I say the same thing to myself all the time. You saved me when my family first moved her, and junior prom." Louis responded.
"So I guess I owe you one then?" I asked.
"No." Louis said as his grip tighted around me and kissed me.
I broke it off and playfully slapped his arm.
"That makes up for it." He smirked.
"Louis Tomlinson you cheeky little bastard." I said as the song ended.
*END OF FLASHBACK*
To: Chloe ;)
Message: Hey I was wondering when I would hear from you. Here is Louis's number.
There was an attachment with his contact information. I opened it and my breath got caught in my throat; I was finally going to be reunited with my childhood friend.
I carefully put the contact in and then used a picture from junior prom for his contact picture. After that I replied to Liam's text.
To: Liam :)
Message: Thank you so much! This means a lot!
I leaned back on the couch and continued to watch X-Factor. Then a thought suddenly occurred to me: Hey, maybe I should text Louis. So that's what I did.
To: Louis :D
Message: You have no idea how long I have waited to do this! I can't tell you who I am now but you will see tomorrow ;)! Meet me at Nandos at 6:30 pm. Okay?
I took a deep breath and hit send.
"Why do you keep sighing so much?" Morgann asked with sudden interest.
I looked around the house as if someone might be listening.
"I just texted Louis for the first time in over three years!" I squeaked.
"Oh God! Are you guys gonna meet up and make-out?" Morgann smirked.
I looked at her like she had seven heads and one of them had a runny nose.
"We were best friends, not each other's random hook-up!" I replied smacking her arm.
Morgann burst out laughing and soon I followed. My phone virbrated and I fumbled with it for a minute before I could check the text.
To: Some person who texted me
Message: Do I even know you?
My heart dropped alongside my smile when I read the text message. Do I even know you. Reading the text hurt my heart.
I know I didn't tell him who it was but if he never shuts up about me you would think he could guess. Morgann saw the text and my face and gave me a hug. I accepted but didn't say anything.
"Maybe he's pulling your leg. I bet he knows it's you." Morgann said to try and make me feel better.
"He probably won't even show up." I mumbled.
"No! He'll come. You know why?" Morgann questioned. I shook my head no. "It's because he wants to know who you are and how you know him. If I've learned anything from dating it's that boys are curious." She added with a small smile.
"I think I'm gonna go to bed." I responded as I staggered my way upstairs.
"But it's only 10:00!" Morgann called after me.
I didn't say anything as I closed my door, layed in bed, and went to sleep still fully dressed from today.
~~~
"Seven am waking up in the morning gotta be-" I cut my alarm off mid sentence with the snooze button.
"There is no way it's 7 am." I grumbled nesting a little further into my bed. The second time my alarm went off I decided to get off my lazy bum and go downstairs.
Before I left though, I changed into a tank-top and my blue fuzzy pajama pants. I also slipped into my slippers. I walked down the stairs (carefully this time) and walked over to the T.V.. It was already on so I figured that Morgann was already up.
I stalked into the kitchen and sure enough there was Morgann talking to Hunter on the phone and pouring herself a glass of iced tea. She was obsessed.
"And that's why dogs and cats should be able to mate and have little...Oh, hey Chlo!" Morgann said as she turned my way. She held up a finger signaling she would be done in a minute.
I nodded and plopped down on the couch. I heard her hang up the phone and walk over.
"Go get your sorry behind in the shower so that we can go." Morgann shouted from the kitchen.
"I just got up!" I groaned turning myself so that I faced her.
"At 12:30?" She replied a smile tugging at the corners or her mouth.
I leaped up and gave her a look.
"Why didn't you wake me up?!" I shouted rushing upstairs.
"You were just so cute." Morgann said and I could practically hear the smile on her face.
Yes hear.
~~~
"Chloe do you want anything?" Hunter asked as he finished ordering from Nandos. I shook my head no and my leg started bouncing up and down again.
Hunter passed our menus up and he started a conversation with Morgann. I kept looking around. I felt a hand stop my bouncing leg and I looked up: Morgann was looking me dead in the eye.
"Chill. Out. You're stressing ME out and I'm not even meeting anyone!" Morgann yelped as she took her hand off my leg.
"I'm sorry. I just have so much on my mind and I don't know what to do! What if he doesn't show up? Or doesn't even remember me?" I replied my eyes glistening with unshed tears. Morgann took my hand in hers.
"It will be fine, I promise. If anything happens we are going home and having a junk fest, okay?" Morgann said, reassuring me. She gave me a hug, and patted my arm before going back to her conversation.
To: Chloe ;)
Message: He should be here right about...
The message red. Someone walked through the door, setting off a bell.
To: Chloe ;)
Message: ...now ;)
Okay...that was weird. I told Hunter and Morgann I was going to the bathroom and slid into the chair next to "Louis". He looked over at me and lowered his sunglasses a little, to see my face.
"Are you Louis Tomlinson?" I asked narrowing my eyes.
This time he took off his sunglasses completely and looked me dead in the eye.
"Do I know you?" Louis responded.
With those words my heart fell into a pit of broken dreams.
