i woke up to the sound of birds chirping in the distance.
i rubbed my eyes, & looked down to find Louis' hand resting on my waist.
i'd been sleeping on my side all night, so i turned onto my back which felt a whole lot better. slowly, louis' sleepy body awoke. his eyelashes battered. "goodmorning gorgeous." he said, which instantly brought a smile to my face. then continued with, "i love waking up to see that smile." i giggled and then kissed him on the cheek. something about the mornings that always made his skin feel softer than ever. i could hear the other boys' mumbles from downstairs, but i didn't bother to go down quite yet. Louis looked at me for a long time until i broke the silence, "wait, what time is it?" i asked. we'd forgotten to buy another clock with all the craziness lately, so there was only one on his side. "it is 9:30." he said softly in his morning voice. "your morning voice just kills me Lou." i said. he looked at me and smiled. then waited a few seconds to pull me closer and start tickling my stomach. when we first started seeing each other he used to always tickle me when i was sad cause he knew it brought a smile to my face, and he said he loved hearing my little laugh. not until later did he notice i was most ticklish on my stomach. i kept trying to push him away to stop tickling me, but he kept coming right back. then he stopped, looked at me, & pulled me in for a quick kiss. then, he started to sit up, he did a quick stretch & yawned.
"well, i'm pretty hungry..i think the lads have cooked breakfast. wanna come down for some food?" Louis asked. "sure! that sounds great!" i said cheerfully, as i also sat up & stretched. Louis pushed the covers off his legs, and when he was about to touch his feet to the ground, he said, "race ya down there!" we both darted over to the door of our bedroom. Lou could always make mornings fun. He was the first one out the door, but i passed him running down the stairs. As we were nearing the end of the stairs, i tripped over some of Zayn's shoes, & i fell. I fell onto the floor with a loud thump.
Louis immediately stopped & turned around. His expression changed in seconds. He rushed over to me followed by Niall, Harry, Liam, and Zayn. They were all hovering over me which made me feel sort of uncomfortable, but they were all trying to help. i reached my hand up to Louis, which helped me up. i stood up to be swept of my feet by Lou. he picked me up like a mom carries a baby. he walked over to the couch and sat down. he was franticly asking me if i was hurt, if so, where did it hurt. all those questions. one of the best qualities of him, he was very caring & responsible. i kept telling him that i was fine, & that i didn't hurt anything. the fall was acutally really hard and it hurt. but i dodn't want him worrying. the only thing wrong, was that i was embarrassed. all the boys were on the opposite couches, waiting until me and louis were done talking. then Niall asked, "well, do you want some food? cause i know i do!" i laughed & told Niall to go right ahead and eat. we'd all be there soon.
they all asked questions like down a line. next was liam to ask, "do you want some ice or anything?" i smiled and replied, "no thanks Liam. thanks
though!" Liam had been like a brother to me always. we'd been friends since kindergarden. he'd always come over and play with toys in 1-4th grade. in middle school through high school, we'd drifted apart. occasionally seeing each other at parties or dances, & we'd just say a quick hello. but since we were done with college, we'd gotten in touch more. without him, i wouldn't have met Louis. he invited me to a party, & told me not to bring a date, cause he had something planned. and now here me & Lou are.
next in line was Zayn, he looked sad & scared. "i'm so sorry kayle, i'm lazy & forgot to put my shoes back, & you could have hurt yourself. i would have felt horrible if anything happened. as for all the boys. we love having you here! it wouldn't be the same without you! and goodness...Louis would've killed me!
