Chapter 12
"Juliet," loud knocks wake me up from my slumber and I wipe my eyes. My throat is dry and I can feel the dry tears on my face. I must of fallen asleep crying. I notice that my hand is stained with my mascara and I let out a sigh.
"Juliet!" Oh, I forgot someone was knocking.
"Sorry mom, I fell asleep." I reply and get up from my bed.
"Get changed and join us downstairs immediately!" She says, angry, and I just shrug it off. Usually I would care and be scared but at the moment I could care less about the plastics being here. Maybe they'll finally leave my family alone and I won't have to marry that trash who happens to be their son.
I go to the bathroom and wash my face, taking all my makeup off which is basically mascara, eyeliner and lipstick. I don't tend to wear a lot of makeup, only when my parents throw parties or we go out for dinner in a posh restaurant. I have circles under my eyes and my eyes are so red from all the crying. I don't cry a lot but when I do it's since I can't hold it anymore.
I walk out the bathroom as I unbutton my school's uniform shirt and let out a yawn. I throw the shirt and suddenly I hit something hard. I groan and look up, thinking I had hit a wall, but no. I hit Louis.
"Louis, I am so-"
"You know what time is it? It's eight. I had been waiting for you two hours out at the cold and you didn't bother to tell me you're not coming. Did you forget? Did you change your mind?" I ignore his angry look and hug him, feeling his cold bare arms against my warm arms. He's freezing and it's all my fault.
"I'm sorry. I wanted to tell you but my dad has blocked every social site on my laptop and I just couldn't let you know. I would never do this to you on purpose!" I look up at him and he rans his hand through my hair.
"I know and I'm sorry I got angry. It's just so bloody cold outside. By the way you should cover yourself if you don't want to get sick."
"Huh?" I look down and my cheeks burn the moment I realize that I'm shirtless. I'm only wearing my bra and skirt.
"Close your eyes!" I cover his eyes with my hands and he laughs loudly. I remember that my parents are home and cover his mouth.
"Oh god, Louis be quiet! My parents are home." I say and he nods.
"Keep your eyes closed while I get changed." I feel his lips kiss my palm and I try to ignore it as I walk into my closet.
Quickly I find a knee length flowy dress and change in to it. I grab the first pair of shoes that seem to look decent enough with my soft blue dress which are some black Mary Janes heels. I fix my hair with my hand and walk out of my closet. "Don't pretend your eyes were closed this whole time." I say as I see him covering his eyes with his hands.
"I'm surprised you haven't yelled at me for coming to your house while your parents are h-" he uncovers his eyes and stays silent.
"What?" I look behind me but there's nothing. "Nothing, you just look- wow!" I scrunch up my nose and walk away to my door but he grabs my hand and pulls my body towards his.
"Can't you just tell them you're not feeling well?" Louis places one of his hands on my cheek as the other is now on my hip.
"Well, I gu-"
The door bursts open and both of us jump away from each other. We look in horror to see who it is and then we see him. William looks at us with a smug look on his face and closes the door. "Look at what we have here." He turns to face us again.
"Is my fiancé having an affair with this filth?" Louis glares at him and walks towards him in order to hit him but I hold him back.
"Lou stop!" I stand in between them with both of my hands on Louis' chest.
"Lou?" William laughs and I try to calm Louis. "I must say I'm hurt. I never thought you were this kind of girl that goes around with other men," he looks at Louis up and down, "well in this case, a boy." I can feel Louis tense but he stays calm.
"Please William, don't tell my parents. Louis and I are just acquaintances." At that moment I knew I blew it up with Louis.
"Oh, acquaintances! Really? Well, what I saw just as I came in didn't look like something acquaintances will do. But I guess I might of had just seen things, right fiancé?" He grabs my hand and pulls me towards him, making me stand next to him and face angry Louis.
"Yes, it was your wild imagination."I agree and look down at my feet. I can't let him tell my parents that Louis was in my room.
"I might of imagined Louis here as well as my dad had just given me a glass of wine." He wraps an arm around my waist, bringing me closer to his side.
"Uh," I look up and see that Louis is angrier than ever as his eyes seem to be focused on the hand that is placed on my waist.
"Wine always gets you, ha." The next thing he does surprises all of us. He spins me so now I'm facing him and lowers his head to my face, leaving a long lasting kiss on my cheek, making it seem as if he were actually kissing me on the lips from Louis' side.
"You fuck-"
"What? This house always creeped me out with those sounds it made. Come on, our parents are waiting for us." He holds my hand and leads me out of my room. I try to look back at Louis back William makes me look back at him.
"I wouldn't do it if I were you." He smiles and I take my hand back from him so I can cross my arms over my chest.
"No, don't do that!" I bite the side of my cheek as I let him hold my hand and he smirks.
"We are going to have so much fun."

After the horrible dinner that we had they finally left and I couldn't feel anymore relieved.
The dinner was just horrible. William kept messing with me, pretending he will tell my parents about Louis any moment but he kept his mouth shut. I barely even ate, which earned a comment from his mom. She claimed I seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but not in a good way. Basically hinting to my parents that I have an eating disorder. Which is obviously not true. Then they talked about the annual ball my parents are throwing this Sunday. Every year my parents throw a charity ball. They choose a different charity every year to support and all the profits from the ball go to the charity. They raise money and awareness, which is great but I always get bored during those balls. This year's theme is a masquerade. Great, I'll have to wear those uncomfortable masks.
"Juliet," my dad calls for me just as I was about to go up to my room.
"Yes, dad?" I walk into the living room. Both of my parents are calmly watching the news as they both drink tea.
"Your mom and I came to the agreement that after your behavior today you deserve to get your phone back." He takes it out of his pocket and places it on the coffee table.
"Than-"
"But! You're still grounded. I will be checking your phone for any messages from that boy." I nod and he returns to his tea.
"Thank you mom and dad." I hug them and grab the phone from the coffee table.
I hurry to my room, in hopes for finding Louis in there but he is not. I let ou a long sigh and close my door as I kick the heels off from my feet.
I ruffle my hair and sit on my bed, noticing a piece of paper on my pillow. Louis probably left it for me. I unfold the paper and read the note.
"I waited in your room for you to return but you didn't. I was willing to stay until they left but hearing your laughter made it impossible. I don't know why am I even writing this note but I just wanted to make some things clear. Juliet, I don't see you as a friend, nor acquaintance but if that's how you see me then what are we even doing? Unless you lied. It hurt seeing you leave with him and I know you were just scared that your parents will find out, but so what? What if your parents find out? They can't stop us. I will sneak into your house as many times I want even if your dad puts a guard in each entrance but I'll find a way. I don't care if I get into trouble countless times as long I have you by my side, because that will make it all worth it. But if you're not willing to do the same nor the feel the same this is a waste of time. I don't want this to be a waste of time. So is this a waste of time?
Check yes or no, Juliet." I let out a long sigh and get up to look for a pen.
I get one from my desk and check no. This is not a waste of time and I'll show him. I lock the door of my room and grab a jumper and a pair of shoes.
Louis is right, it's all worth it as long as I have him by my side. My parents can ground me as much as they want but that won't stop my heart from wanting Louis. Louis just confessed he feels the same way and there is no way I'm giving up on him this easy. I'll sneak out as many times needed until we get caught, but even then it won't matter.
I open my window and climb down. I feel this huge wave of adrenaline in my body. I like it. I jump as I'm close enough and pull my jumper's hood up. I run to Louis house and just as I get there I call his phone. It rings for a few seconds and then he answers.
"Juliet?" The surprise is clear in his voice.
"This is not a waste of time." I reply and I could feel the smile form in his face.
"Juliet, I-" a car horns and I cut him off. "I'm outside your house." I hear him gasp.
"I'll open the garage." We hang up and minutes later the garage door opens.
I quickly get inside and see Louis. I feel myself blush as I stand in front of him. He looks nervous himself. "I can't believe you're here." He says and I look down at my feet.
"It can't always be you the one that comes over." I look up and notice he has come closer to me so I hand him the note he left at my house. He chuckles and sees that I marked no.
"I'm glad you're here." Louis grabs my hand and pulls me towards him. My jumper's hood falls and he runs a hand through my hair. "You got your phone back?" He asks and I nod.
"Turn it off."
"Why?" I look at him confused.
"Your dad has probably put a tracker on it." My eyes widen and I quickly turn my phone off.
We stand close to each other. He looks down at me and I look down at our feet, feeling nervous as now the whole adrenaline has drained from my body. He holds my hand and I can feel it sweat but we don't care. His other hand raises my head so I can look up and look at his blue eyes. He comes closer to me and I close my eyes, preparing myself for my first kiss. I can feel all the hair in my body raise and the goosebumps all over my arms and legs. My heart is pounding and I can feel his too as I place my hand on his chest. It seems to be that they are going at the same rhythm.
I stand on the tip of my toes and feel his lips brush mine slowly, softly.
"No," I suddenly hear him say and I open my eyes, shocked.
"What?" I can feel my heart slowly shatter.
"Sorry, what I mean is that I have a better idea. You'll just have to be patient." I feel calm knowing he didn't regret this.
"Believe me I want to kiss you so bad, but it's a good idea." His thumb caresses my lips and he kisses me very closely to my lips.
"My parents are not home, let's go to my room." He grabs my hand and I feel my cheeks burn. Is that his idea?
"Don't worry, we will keep it PG." Louis says when he feels me tense and I let out a giggle.
He takes me to his room very quick, not even giving me a chance to check his house. We get to his room and he opens the door revealing a very messy room. Clothes and paper sheets around the whole room, posters of bands hanged crooked covering the blue walls and socks in places they shouldn't be. The only thing that is not messy is his bed.
"You're so messy." I tell him and he shrugs. "I don't let the maid clean my room. It will traumatize her." I laugh and sit on his bed.
"So you basically said you won't care if you get caught?" He stands in front of me, looking down at me in a very intimidating look, and I slowly nod.
"What do you think about finishing our Harry Potter marathon then?" He turns his tv on. It's like he has a personality disorder.
"I would like that."
He goes to his closet and takes some clothes out, probably his pajamas. While he gets dressed I look around his room, reading the name of the bands in his posters, some of them I remember from the iPod he gave me. I notice a couple of books but not many, like three, five. I try to read the name of one of them when suddenly clothes are thrown at me.
"You can wear that." I grab the shirt and sweatpants he had thrown at me and look at him to see him wearing only pajama pants. I blush and look away. "I will turn around." He says and I thank him.
I take my jumper and shoes off and put on the sweatpants. I look behind me to check if Louis is not looking before taking the dress off. I put on the shirt Louis gave me and feel his scent on it.
"Done?" He asks as I fold my dress neatly. "Yes." I put my dress and jumper on the his desk's chair and try to adjust the sweatpants so they won't fall.
"Let me help you." He grabs the strings and ties it tightly. "There." I look up at him and he groans.
"Don't do that." He pulls my lower lip as I was biting it.
"You're making it hard for me and I really want to go through my plan." I smile and he takes me to his bed.
"It will be a kiss to remember." He whispers in my ear as he lays in bed.
"Let's have a sleepover." He pats the spot next to him and I lay there. Louis quickly finds his way to hug me and I happily let out a sigh as I cuddle to him.
"I love the feeling of having your arms around me." I mumble to his chest and he kisses the top of my head.
"I love the feeling of having you wrapped in my arms." This all feels like a dream and I don't want to wake up from it. If only Louis would tell me what's his little plan for our "perfect kiss".
His phone rings and he ignores it. I nudge him to answer it and he groans as he grabs the phone from the nightstand. "Unknown number, huh." Louis mutters and I try to look at the message but Louis has me wrapped around him in a way that I can't manage to move.
"Shit!" I frown and grab the phone from his hand as he hands it to me.
"Came back to spend a bit of the night with my lovely fiancé and she is not in her room. Do you happen to know where she is? If she is not back in five minutes I'll must tell her parents!"
A/N: yes I know that at the moment it's all hearts and kisses but don't worry it will all go down the hill after this :) so please don't get bored! I promise it will be full of drama! If there is one thing I'm good at it's ruining relationships :)
