Stole My Heart

Chapter 1

Holly POV

For years I had to sit there, and watch my best friend fall for other women. I whitnessed him kissing her, hugging her, telling her he loves her. When all I wanted, is for him to say that to me. I wanted to curl up in his arms at night, and listen to him, sing his songs in my ear, as I drifted off to sleep. But that couldn't happen.

That was all we were... best friends. There never could be anything more between us. He didn't see me as anything more than a friend, and that was what killed me. I so desperately wanted him to feel the same way, but he never did. I watch him sometimes, with his girlfriend Eleanor, and everytime I see them kiss; hug; share their love for one another, I'm dying inside... and he doesn't know it.

Louis and I have been best friends since we can both remember, we did everything together. Our parents are best friends also, and they'd bonded through us. Jay Tomlinson, is one amazing woman. She'd always been there for me, when I'd been having a tough time with my mother. She had been like a second mum to me. You see, my mum is a cancer survivor, and she always gives me these scares, that makes me think it's going to come back. The chemotherapy worked the first time, there is no telling, that it will work the second time, if it comes back. Louis supported me through it also, he was there for me a lot.

With Louis being in One Direction, I don't see him as much now. In a way, it's a good thing because then I don't have to see him with Eleanor, but he's still my best friend. The only other two of the boys, that knows how much I like Louis are Zayn and Niall, and that is only because their girlfriends Natalie, and Mia, forced it out of me one night. They saw how upset I was, when Eleanor was round and they were all curled up on the couch, but they didnt understand why... Although, Natalie already knew seen as we'd been best friends with her since we were 10. She's an amazing girl and I don't know what I would do without her. She'd been supportive of me since, I'd first told her.

Zayn and Niall are constantly dropping hints to Louis, about me, but he just ignores them. Sometimes I wonder if he even wants me around anymore. He doesn't talk to me, he's too preoccupied with Eleanor to notice me now. Zayn and Niall, can see that it's hurting me and to be honest, I think they are starting to get a little annoyed with Louis.

The only reason I still go round to their place as often as I do, is because of the other boys and their girlfriends. Louis doesn't notice me now, so there is no point in going there for him. I'd told the rest of the boys, that if they wanted me they would have to come and find me, but they convinced me to stay, and keep coming back to see them, but I wish I hadn't let them convince me, because it kills me every time I see him with her. I don't know what to do anymore.

"Zayn, I'm going home." I mumbled to him as I stood up, moving away from Louis and Eleanor.

"Don't go Hol..." Zayn frowned slightly, shooting daggers at an unobservant Louis.

"I can't stay here anymore Zayn, not with him." I couldn't even say his name anymore, it pained me to say it.

"Fine then, we are coming with you." Niall said, walking into the room, after being in the kitchen, Nat just behind him.

"No Niall, I just want to be alone. Give me time to think. Might be able to convince myself, that he's not what I really want." I gave them a sad smile, and turned around to walk away. "Bye guys." I said. Everyone that had seen me go, mumbled a bye, but once again there was nothing from Louis.

I walked home realizing that I didn't have my car with me, because Harry had come to pick me up from my house this morning. It gave me sometime to think though, think about whether Louis was really worth waiting for. Especially if he doesn't know I exist anymore. I felt like I was dying inside, everytime he ignored me. There was a gaping hole in my chest, where he'd stolen my heart, and wripped it up into a million tiny pieces, and he doesn't even care.

When I finally reached home, Louis' mum was sat in the living room with my mother. They were laughing and joking. I didn't want to see Jay right now, I couldn't. Seeing her, reminded me of him, and I already had enough on my mind, when it came to Louis Tomlinson.

All I wanted to do, was curl up in bed, and cry myself to sleep. It seemed like a fun thing to do at this time. It seemed like the best thing to do.

That night I feel asleep, thinking about what would happen if I just disappeared. If I never came back, would anyone notice that I'd gone? Well, the one person that I wanted to notice, definately wouldn't, because he was too wrapped up with his wonderful girlfriend to noitce, the person that's been around him, since we were younger. The one person that know him better than anyone. The one person, thats been there for him through thick and thin, the one person that loves him no matter what.

I didn't want to be that person anymore... I wanted it to go back to the way it as when we were younger. When I never liked him more than a brother. If only we could go back to those times, but with the other boys being here as well. The rest of the band has become a significant part of my life now, and I don't know what I would do without them here right now. They were being my rock. The thing that kept me sane.

I don't want to be hung up on him anymore, I want to love someone, that I know will love me back. That will love me for me. That will hold me at night and tell me wthat everything is going to be okay. That will tell me every night and every morning, that they love me. That will kiss me in the morning. That will keep me going, when I'm down. Obviously that person isn't Louis.

Not the same Louis, that was my best friend. Not the same Louis, that I fell in love with all those years ago. He wasn't the same person.

To be continued...
