Maybe We'll Make It After All {Sequel to What If? ~ Louis Tomlinson Fan Fic}

Chapter 1 - Slipped Away

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I heard a knock on my door as I was deciding what to paint my wall that was in front of my desk. I opened it to see Kendall with that big smirk on his face and a big black box with a pretty pink bow on the top of it.

"Wow, is this for me?"

I asked as the clueless idiot I pretended to be,

"Nah, this is for Simon."

We both chuckled as I took the box from him and placed it on my desk. I grabbed onto him as he pulled me up in our normal hug.

"You'll never guess what happened this morning. Louis was at Tim's. He smiled at me like the creeper he is."

Kendall's crunched his face as he formed fists with his hands.

"No, no. I'm done with him Kendall."

He sighed as he squeezed me once again, I let out a small laugh as I took all of him in.

"Can you guys make out already? Or at least do something on that desk, if you know what I mean?"

Carlos giggled as James and Logan high-fived.

"Get out guys!"

Kendall said as they all laughed louder than hyenas

"Seriously, they need to chill out. Kendall and I are just friends."

They all looked like they were about to cry but then they booed and somehow, they had popcorn and they were throwing it at us.

"What's going on in here?"

Simon said as we all stopped and looked at him.

"Big Time Rush. Clean this up immediately."

They echoed 'yes sir' as they cleaned up every little bit of popcorn as Simon watched them.

"Thank you. Now go back to recording. Roxy and I have some business to discuss."

They shook their heads as they all left,

"Roxanne, I have a song that I need you to write for my popular group. One Direction. I also need you to help Little Mix write new songs for their second album."

Little Mix was a great group. Jade got married to Niall extremely soon and they are about to celebrate their 2 year anniversary. All the girls had boyfriends, Perrie was still dating Zayn but they postponed the wedding until their fame has settled down to actually start to have families of their own.

Their first album was amazing, I loved it so much. Working on their second album with them is actually a privilege because we are all so close, surprisingly even Jade and I are close.

"Of course, I would love to write for Little Mix."

I smiled as he looked at me confused and shook his head,

"What about One Direction?"

Now it was time for me to give him a weird look so I can get out of writing for them,

"Who?"

Simon looked like he mentally slapped himself (or me if that's the case)

"You already know them. The five crazy boys originally from England and Ireland."

That proves that Louis even lied to me about where he was born.

"That's great, but I'm not interested."

His eyes widened as his mouth dropped,

"You could get extremely famous just by working with them. This is a big opportunity. Don't let it slip away."

Then it hit me, I let everything that involved Louis slip away. Including he himself. Maybe I shouldn't have cared of what his mother or his sisters thought of me. I should've just focused on him. On us.

I snapped back into reality where Simon still gave me that 'bitch who do you think you are?' Look.

"Ok, fine I'll work with the Brit brats."

I said annoyed as he smiled and left the room. Oh fuck. I just agreed to writing with the devil himself. Fuck, my head needs to get its shit together because my hearts going nuts today.

-Louis POV-

I was so excited to finally see Roxy enter the Tim Hortons instead of hiding in her car when Sage got their coffees in the morning. I brought my new publicity girlfriend along with me to the studio as she waited in the lounge area.

I went up the long staircase as I saw the rest of the lads laughing,

"Hey guys."

They looked at me and quickly gave me high fives and bro-hugs

"So what's on the schedule for today?"

I asked daddy directioner a.k.a. Liam,

"We are supposed to be having a one-on-one writing session with the new writer today."

My eyes lit up with delightment as I realized our new writer was Roxy.

"So... Who's going first?"

Zayn asked as he exited the room that was Roxy's office.

"Me!"

I immediately shot up as everyone looked at me shocked as hell,

"I-I don't think you can be alone with her Louis. If you write with her, I have to be there."

I shot Zayn a confused look,

"And why can't I work with her myself?"

I asked peeved,

"Because she just talked to me and told me that she doesn't want to be alone with you."

My heart felt like it was hit... Did I affect her that bad?

"Alright, whatever."

I blankly said without a care in the world as I scratched my head and Niall shot up,

"I'm going to work with her. You guys keep babbling until it's your turn."

They all shook their heads as Niall went in and closed the door without hesitation.

"Fuck, we can't let him go in there either!!!"

Zayn tried to open the door but it was locked,

"Fuck."

He said as he punched the door, Liam rubbed his shoulder,

"It's alright buddy. Roxy can handle this. She's become stronger then she was two years ago-"

"Ok now that's enough of the insults. I understand I fucked up, but everyone deserves a second chance, right?"

Liam and Zayn gave me looks like I had an ass for a face,

"You've already had too many chances."

I glared at Zayn as he walked off somewhere. I don't get why he's always like this, seriously it's enough. If he's in love with Roxy, if he is I'll kick his face in. It's enough that she's become 'besties' with Kendall and everyone teases him about her in interviews. Why don't they tease me about Roxy? Oh yeah, that's because I already have a fake girlfriend Carter. Fuck, why is my life so fucking complicated?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey hey hey! I think that this is going to be the most fun sequel to write, honestly I'm so proud of how many people actually read 'What If' because I wasn't expecting even half of that. Seriously, this has been such an amazing plot to write. Even I get caught up in the drama of it all when I'm writing it. Unfortunately, I myself do not see Louis in this series as my crush. I just see him for Louis from one direction right now. I had a hard time picking out the title also, so what do you think the title of this book should have really been? Please vote comment read and share. I love you all! Stay strong lovelies xx
