The sound of tyres and gravel crunched as Louis and Karmin pulled up into the house were Louis had used for himself whenever he came to Doncaster to see his mum. It was a large cottage, but all of the fine details couldn't be seen in the dimness of the night. Louis helped Karmin take out all of the bags from the back of her car. The was leading them both to the front door. Not even having a key. She realised that point when she had reached the front door. Louis slide a hand through a gap between Karmin's waist and arm. He slid a key into the hole turned it and pushed the door open. Karmin turned to him and opened her mouth to say something but he shook his head smiling softly. She laughed softly and she walked into the dark cottage, Louis must have turned on the light once she had stepped in because suddenly the whole house was ignited with light. There was a large room on her right which was furnished with 3 couches, a large plasma T.V. , a coffee table, electronics, plants and pictures sitting up against the beige walls. "Just dump them here Karmin." Louis says heading over to one of the couches and dumping the bags on it. Karmin copied him and looked around the room and then at what she was wearing. She had to change. As though reading her mind Louis picked up a bag of clothes that had been laying on the couch, and passed it over to her.
"Come on, I can show you your room and you can get changed." At these words her picked up the rest of the at least 10 different sized bags. Louis lead her out a door, down a hall until they reached the very back of the house. There were 6 doors and Louis lead her to the one at the end. He kicked open the wooden door to reveal a purple room, with a double bed, a dressing table, walk in wardrobe, a huge window curtained with satin blue curtains, posters of bands and celebrities were pinned on the walls, on either side of the bed was a cabinet both with lamps one with an alarm clock, also in the corner was a medium sized T.V. And a DVD player. The room was large and... roomy. Karmin stepped in and looked around curiously as Louis set the bags on the bed watching her. "My sisters usually come over, so this is where they stay." He says walking awkwardly to the door. "I'm just in the room next door, so if you need me I'll be in there okay?" He grins and slips out of the room closing the door behind him soundly. Karmin sighed rummaging through the bags until she found an orange hoodie, black tracksuit pants, a black singlet and a pair of socks. She slid them all on and headed over the mirror. She smiled as she scanned her eyes over the surface picking up a hair-band. She used the elastic object to tie back her hair in a messy bun. She didn't bother with clipping little strands back. She sighed in her reflection and picked up Liam's jacket sliding out of the room and closing the door behind her. Almost nervously she headed over to the door next to hers and opened it slowly. She found herself in a messy room almost exactly like the one she was staying in but a dull red colour. Louis was rushing around cleaning up. When the door opened he straightened up putting some things away and grinned seeing it was Karmin. "I have Liam's jacket.." She says slowly looking around. "When do you think they will be here?" She asks sitting on the end of Louis' bed. "You can leave it in here, Liam and I are sharing a room. We always do. He will get it." She sits beside her casting an eye around his almost clean room. "They've gone shopping for food and they're getting clothes. Well they haven't gone yet.. I think they are going to sleep in the car. But Zayn should be here in about 10 minutes."
Karmin nods blowing a strand of hair out of her face. Louis watches her with a kind of satisfied expression. "I should get you some more blankets it gets pretty cold in the room your staying in. I'll be right back." He stood up gave her a look as though saying stay there and came back around 5 minutes later. He stood in the doorway leaning against the frame. "Zayn's back." He says beckoning her over to him. She stood up and followed him out of the room down the hall and into the living room to find Zayn laying across the couch nearest to the door tapping away on his phone. He looked up for a few moments and smiled in greeting. Karmin turned to Louis and said softly just so they could just hear her. "I think I'll go to bed." She waved goodnight at Zayn and was surprised that Louis hugged her gently before she set off to her room. ** In her room Karmin tossed and turned not being able to sleep for at least 3 hours. She turned her head to the alarm clock that was flashing bleakly in the darkness. It was only six. She sat up and looked around the room finding her blankets spread across the floor from her kicking them off of her body. She groaned and looked around squinting trying to remember where she was. Her head was reeling, stomach lurching and her eyes felt heavy. Her hair had fallen loose from the bun and she shook it out standing up. This was definitely the worst hangover. She picked up a blanket off the floor and threw it onto her bed in attempt to try and go back to sleep. There was no use. Instead she crept out of her room and closed the door softly behind her. Shops didn't open until 9 so Josh, Liam and Niall couldn't be back yet. She felt dizzy as she moved down to the door next to hers. She turned the handle and pushed it open finding herself in Louis' bedroom lit with the dim light of the lamps. She crept across the room to his bed where he was sleeping soundly. Karmin should just stand there and watch him sleep all night but she just wanted sleep. She nudged him, he groaned. She nudged again and whispered his name. His eyes opened and he looked up at her sleepily. "What's wrong?" He said groggily.
"I-" She started finding the words. She sighed closing her eyes in pain wanting the headache to go. "I was wandering if I could sleep here... Just for tonight. I'm having some trouble sleeping." She opened her eyes to find him sitting up and moving across the bed in a swift moment. "Too much to drink hey love?" He asks softly patting a spot beside him before laying a pillow down for her. "I know how it is." He laughed softly. Karmin sat on the edge before swinging her legs over and onto the mattress. Louis pulled some blankets over her as she settled into the bed. It was a lot more comfortable and warm than the one she tried to sleep in. Louis was laying on his side watching her. She slid down and rolled onto her side facing him. "You look like you need to get something off your chest." He says softly. "I'm just worried about what's going to happen that's all." Karmin says pulling the blankets over her shoulder. She was already starting to fall asleep. "If that's all. Goodnight Karmin." He says rolling over in bed his back now facing her. Karmin tried to say goodnight but she had already fallen asleep. ** Karmin's eyes fluttered open as she squinted in the afternoon light. She lifted her head, her eyes widening finding herself laying on Louis' chest feeling his lungs move up and down as he breathed. She turned her head around to find his arm around her waist. Despite this, at least her hangover was gone. She moved Louis hand from her hip and slid off him. His eyes opened at her and he rubbed them sitting up.
"Good morning sunshine." Karmin whispers. Then suddenly a bang could be heard from the front of the house. She jumped and looked at Louis then to the door. She stood up Louis close behind her and ran out of the room and to the source of the noise.
She found herself in a large kitchen, one of those fancy ones you see on a cooking show. It was her ideal kitchen, stainless steel benches, an island bench and it was all colour co-ordinated. She also found herself in the presence of 5 other people. Liam, Niall, Zayn, Harry and her brother Josh. By the looks of it Niall had dropped a pan because he was just picking one up Liam talking to him saying something about being careful with Louis stuff. As Louis and Karmin emerged into the space they all turned to them grinning. Karmin opened her mouth to say something and turned to Louis who was standing behind her. "We found you two passed out in Louis' bedroom. Decided to leave you two alone to sleep, you both had a big night. Especially you Karmin." Niall said suppressing a fit of laughter. "Guys nothing happened if thats what you're thinking" Karmin said sitting on a stool at the island bench between Louis and Zayn. "She's right." Louis says peeling a banana and passing it to her. "You look like you could use something to eat." Once she takes it he pulls another one out of the fruit bowl and peels it for himself. She grasped the banana in her hand and looked at the clock. It was 2 in the afternoon, she had finally gotten some sleep. She sighed and stretched once she finished her banana. Louis turned to her after looking out the window. "Are up for a walk love?" He asks standing up, he was still in the clothes he was in yesterday. "Get some fresh air after last night." He adds helping her up. "I guess so." She rubs her eyes with the back of her hand. When she moves her hand from her eyes she looks at the back of it to find smudged eye shadow. "Do you think I could have a shower first?" She asks. "Yeah sure, the bathroom is next to my room by the way." Louis says. They both head out of the kitchen and down the hall. Louis goes to his room and Karmin goes to hers, picking out some clothes and a towel taking them into the bathroom. She closes the door firmly behind her, feeling slightly insecure in a house full of guys. She turns on the shower, as high as it would go on hot. She add the cold water until it is the perfect temperature. She undresses and slides in tying her hair back not getting it wet. After 10 minutes she turns the water off and slides out wiping down her body, then she slides on an orange singlet shirt, a see-through whit button up mens shirt (from one of her ex boyfriends.) and denim short shorts. She releases her hair which is still completely dry, she puts on make-up and brown leather ankle boots. She head out of the bathroom and runs into Louis. Literally. Oof." The air had been knocked out of her as she fell and landed on her back. She sat up rubbing her shoulder which she had landed on. "Karmin! Im so sorry" Louis says outstretching his hand to her. She took it and let him pull her up. "Its okay. Its okay!" She says laughing her ribs aching slightly. "Im okay." She looks up at him, not even caring that his hand was still latched onto hers. In the sunlight he was absolutely gorgeous. They both leant in as though meaning to kiss but they both decided better of it because Louis let go of her hand awkwardly and she looked away and picked up her dirty clothes. "I'll just..." She starts and walks past him but he takes her by the hand once again. "Louis..." She says warningly. He opened his mouth as though he was meaning to say something but obviously decided against it letting her hand go. Karmin looked up and blinked. "Well then." She cleared her throat as Louis rubbed the back of his neck chuckling to himself. Karmin threw her clothes into her bedroom and Louis lead her to the front of the house. "We'll see you guys later!" The boys called. Then Niall added "Have fun love birds!" Its like somehow they all knew something was going to happen. But neither Louis nor Karmin knew what. **
