Liam’s POV

            My hands subconsciously stroked Holly's hair. I wish we could stay like this forever. My mind wandered to the future... Holly and I together, always. Us after she graduated University. Us at one of hopefully many award shows to come. Us when we bought a house together. Us when we had our first kid... It sounded amazing. I was so in love with her it could drive me crazy sometimes, in a good way of course. It was then that I truly recognized how much I wanted that with her. I knew what I was going to do. The only question was how?

Brianna's POV

I woke up to blinding sunlight in my eyes, streaming in through the open blinds on Louis's window. Louis's window... Louis's bedroom... Louis's bed... I smiled to myself remembering falling asleep with Louis last night. I stretched and rolled over, about to kiss Louis to wake him up to find an empty bed. I rubbed my eyes and reopened them, hoping that I was just dreaming him gone, but when I opened my eyes he was still gone.

Had last night even happened? I wondered, was this even Louis's bed? I sat up and looked around the room. Yup this was definitely Louis's bed. I got up and made my way to Louis's bathroom. I looked in the mirror only to have my view blocked by a blue sticky note.

Hey Bri, sorry I'm not here when you get this. Boys and I have an early rehearsal this morning and I did my best not to wake you. See you later today I hope. xx Louis. I smiled to myself as I read the note. He is so sweet. I made my way downstairs to eat something, finding Holly in front of the TV with her coffee. 

"Morning! How'd you sleep? Oh and nice t-shirt." she giggled. 

"Fine thanks and yeah, I borrowed it from Liam without his consent." I said, "Is there any food?" She nodded towards the kitchen counter, where a plate of French toast and bacon was sitting waiting for me. I grabbed the plate and plunked myself down onto the couch next to her. We sat watching cartoons together while I ate. After our fourth straight episode of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends,

(A/N: it was the first oldish cartoon that came to mind lol. Speaking of which I miss that show...)

I got up to clear my dishes, noticing the clock as i left. 11:52.  

"SHIT! HOL I GOTTA BE HOME IN 8 FREAKING MINUTES!" I screamed, bolting upstairs to gather my few things I had stashed in Holly's room.  

"GRAB ME A CHANGE OF CLOTHES! I'LL CHANGE AT YOUR PLACE!" she shouted in response. I decided it would take too long to pick out an outfit, so I just grabbed her whole bag and ran back down the stairs. Holly stood at the bottom holding my jacket, purse and her car keys. She hurriedly handed me my things and we jogged out the front door to her car. She started the ignition and shot out of the driveway and down the street. We made it to my house in record time, clocking us in at 12:07. The two of us snuck in through the garage side door to my house, hoping to make it to my room unnoticed. No such luck.  

"You're a bit late Brianna." my mom's irritated voice rang out from behind us. We turned to see her sitting at the kitchen table with her tea mug, obviously waiting for us to arrive.  

"We just slept in a bit mom, and not to be rude, but 7 minutes past noon is not that late, especially for us teenagers who can sleep until like 1:30 in the afternoon. It's not a big deal." 

"It is a big deal young lady, when you disappear for almost 2 days with no text or call about your whereabouts, only when I call do I know where you are, not to mention the fact that you come home with that!" she says, her voice rising angrily as she points to the sling on my arm. Oh yeah. 

"Really mom it's nothing major, I just tripped and my shoulder went into the side of the countertop and I broke my collarbone, but really I'm okay." She let out a frustrated sigh.  

"You're grounded." 

"Wha-!" She cut me off before I yelled. 

"But only for 2 weeks. I just need to regain my trust in you. You may go to your room now. Oh and hello Holly dear, how are you?" I gaped at her sudden friendliness and stormed off to my bedroom. I pulled out my phone (which she thankfully hadn't taken from me) to text Louis that I wouldn't actually be seeing him because of my mother. The only problem was I didn't even know his phone number...

Holly's POV

"I'm fine Mrs. Marks," I smiled, "and you? It's been a while since I've been here huh?" She nodded before capturing me in a hug. 

"Talk to Brianna for me okay? I know she was with you and such but it was a bit scary. I thought she'd been kidnapped or something... Well not by you, but you know what I mean. I don't want to ground her but it's the only way that seems to get through to her..." I just nodded, taking it all in.  

"Well I'm gonna go upstairs with Bri then... Bye Mrs. Marks." I made my way up the stairs and stopped in front of Brianna's closed door.  

"Bri it's me... Open up." I heard her mutter something from behind the door before she opened it for me. I walked in and sprawled myself across her bed. "So instead of moping about let's talk. God knows we haven't had a deep girl talk in forever!" I said. She stared at me blankly. "Ok well then I'll start. Last night Liam and I almost had sex." That got her attention.  

"YOU WHAT?!? NO WAY!" I just nodded, a cheeky smile plastered across my face. "You whore!" Brianna joked, slapping my arm. "Well give me details! Although not too detailed so I can keep my breakfast in my stomach." The two of us sat there for a while just catching up and such when we were interrupted by my phone ringing.

"It's Liam... Ohhhh we probably should have left them a note or something huh?" I asked her, answering the phone. "Hey babe... Yeah I know I'm sorry it slipped my mind... Mhmm... Okay well I'll be back later... I love you too..." Suddenly Brianna started waving her hands, motioning for me to give her the phone, "Okay hold on Brianna wants to say something." I handed her the phone, hearing her ask for Louis's number before she placed the phone back in my hands.  

"He hung up by the way." She informed me, "you gotta go?" she asked, her eyes pleading with me not to leave her. I nodded sadly, getting up and wrapping her in a hug, careful not to hurt her.  

"I'm sorry I got you in trouble... I promise I'll call you later. Love you Bri." I said, opening the door.  

"Love you too Hol." And with that I closed the door behind me and headed back to Liam's place.
