Abbey's pov**


I love you more then anything. All I hear is Louis' voice. I can't fall asleep after tonight. I just can't.

What I am feeling right now is so foreign to me. No one has ever asked me out, let alone tell me they love me. What happens after this? It's not like I can just end it with him, he knows everything. Whatever is happening between Louis and I is so fast my mind can't process it. And to think that this started with him waiting for me at my car. It was only a couple days ago but it feels as if a month has gone by.

All my thoughts jumble in my head and make it so hard to get any sleep. If I could only drift off for just a minute, I could escape my mind. I wonder how Louis feels about all this. I still think we should keep this a secret for a while, even though I am sure that this is something real. All the girls at school will hate me when they find out. Why did I go for the most popular guy at school?

I eventually fall asleep, but Lou still fills my dreams.

When I wake up, I am blinded by the sunlight pouring into my window. I quickly remember everything that happened yesterday. School tomorrow will be miserable I'm sure.

I sit in my bed debating whether or not I should pretend to be ill tomorrow when my stomach grumbles reminding me to eat something. I roll out of my bed and groan before pulling on sweatpants since I am freezing. I walk down the stairs and see my mum isn't home. I pull out a box of cereal and the milk and then sit down at the table. I smile at the memories of last night.

I finish eating quickly then go back to my room. Grabbing my phone off of my dresser, I notice I three text messages.

*good morning lovely*

*we should hang out today*

*hellooooo*

I wonder if I should see him today. I have a math test I need to study for so maybe I should stay home.

*busy today.. sorry lou maybe tomorrow night since we won't be together during school*

I feel bad for declining his offer but I need time to clear my head. Maybe I'll call him later. Heading upstairs, the thought of tomorrow looms over me. Louis will surely give our secret away somehow, even though I know it won't be on purpose. I plop onto the chair in front of my desk. I turn on my laptop then reach into my bag to get my ear buds. Once my computer is running I go to my music and start to blast the beautiful voice of Ed Sheeran. He is my everything and probably the reason I am still alive. He saved me. Plain and simple.

Because if you want, I'll take you in my arms and keep sheltered from all that I've done wrong. And I know that you'll say that I'm the only one. But I know God made another one of me to love you better then I ever will. The lyrics pour into my ears and I melt into the gorgeous voice of my idol.

My study time quickly ends and before I know it an hour has passed. I need to call Louis. I pull out my phone and search for him in my contacts. *ring, ring* "Hey!" he exclaims. My heart leaps at the sound of his sweet voice.

"Hey, sorry I couldn't hang out today. I had to study." I tell him even though I am well aware that I got no homework done.

"Don't sweat it, love." he assures me. "So how are we going to do tomorrow? I know you said you want to keep this on the down low for a while." I wonder if that upsets him.

"I guess we will just act like our normal selves. We usually don't talk at school, so it shouldn't be a problem. I mean it will hard but as long as we act cool no one will know the wiser." I tell him.

I hear him sigh a little. "Ok... this will be hard. You better look awful tomorrow, because if you look like you always do, I won't be able to resist." I can practically see him smirking on the other end of the phone. "Although...is it even possible for you not to look lovely?"

I giggle at his flirty tone. He's so cute. "I'll try my best. Maybe I can make a dress out of a trashbag?" I suggest. He laughs and the sound makes me smile from ear to ear.

"Sounds like a plan. I gotta run. I'll call ya later!" he tells me.

"Bye!" The phone line goes dead and I flop back onto my bed.

He is so sweet to me. I don't know what is going to happen between him and I, but as long as I am with him I will be alright. This is absolutely mad. I'm dating the most popular guy in school.
