Leave Your Lover

Vivian's POV



"So you've looked at some photos?" Louis asks me reaching for some of the photos we looked at. I can't see what he's looking at because his body is bent forward and I'm laying back on the sofa, but I can still see his face. A smile forms onto his lips and he laughs under his breath.
"We look so happy," he quietly says as he rubs a photo with his thumb.
"Hey, Louis," I clear my throat. He places the photos back on the coffee table and turn his body to face me, giving me his full attention.
"Yeah?" He asks smiling at me.
"Am I really dating Liam?" I shyly ask him as a soft laugh escapes my lips.
His face turns hard and disappointed at the same time, and he breaks eye contact from me, looking down at his hands.
"Yeah, think so," his words are barely a whisper.
"Then why," I begin, shaking my head. "Nevermind," I smile at him. He gives me a confused look but it looks like he's going to leave the subject for me.
"So erm," I scratch my arm nervously. "What do I like to do for fun?" I shyly smile up at him. He's watching me intensely but then breaks eye contact again. "Well at this time of night," I laugh.
He gives me a warm smile and stands up, holding his hand out for me to take. I hesitate but put my hand in his. He pulls me up from the sofa.
"Well, either swimming, or movies," he tells me as he hooks his arm in one of mine. "With me of course," he does a small bow. I laugh at him and shake my head. I can see why I was-am-close friends with him.
"What about both?" I smile at him.
"Both it is," he sends me a wink.
"Do you know where your room is?" He cocks an eyebrow at me.
Oh shit, I don't know where anything is. I shyly scratch my arm and shake my head.
"Right this way," he tells me.
He takes me to my room and shows me where my walk in closet is, then walks out of my room closing it, shouting "I'll be waiting here," from outside the room.
I go through my swimsuits and pick the one I like the most. It's all black with gold glitters on. I dress myself and pull my hair into a high pony, then check myself in the mirror. I smile at myself, at least I look hot in these.
I open the door to find Louis leaning against my doorway. His eyes scan over my body making me blush, then we smiles at me.
"You know," he begins, hooking his arm with mine once again, leading me out of the house to where I assume the swimmingpool would be. "This is your favorite bikini," he winks at me.
At least my taste in clothes didn't change. Or bikini's, at least. I guess my taste in clothes can't really change, and if it does, I'll have to work with the clothes the 'old me' had for a while.
We reach the pool and Louis jumps in, smiling at me after rising from the water again. He props himself up on his elbows on the cement next to the pool while his body is still inside.
"Well, get in," he orders me.
I walk to the pool dipping my toes in to feel the temperate. Thank god that it's hot. Unexpectedly, Louis grabs my leg and pulls me into the water.
"Don't do that!" I laugh at him, breathing heavily.
He smiles at me then swims to the steps inside of the pool, sitting on the top one.
I look around me to find a big yard, it's really beautiful. A breeze picks up in the air and I close my eyes, letting the breeze dry some of the water on my face. I smile at the beauty of wind, then swim to the steps to sit next to Louis.
"Well," I begin. "I have memory loss," I laugh shaking my head. "So, would you mind telling me a few things," I nudge his shoulder. I feel most comfortable around him. And Harry, but I've only spent a few minutes with him.
"What would you like to know?" He smiles at me, laying back a bit so his back can be supported by the side of the swimming pool.
"How did I come to like Liam? And," I pause. "Date him?" I quietly ask staring out to the garden a few feet away from the pool. It's strange, I can't see myself with Liam. Maybe if I spend some time with him I'll get comfortable around him too, just like with Louis.
"Erm," he clears his throat breaking me from my train of thoughts.
"Well see, we have been friends since we-I mean I, can remember. Our parents went to school together and stayed friends. So we grew up with each other and got really close," I smile at his words. That does sound amazing. Growing up with Louis I mean. If only I could remember it. I sigh.
"Hey," he whispers to me smiling. "It'll be alright," he wraps one of his arms around me pulling me closer to him. I don't push him away though, I'm comfortable with him. So I lay back into his chest, arm still wrapped around my shoulders.
"So I tried out for X-Factor and didn't make it," oops...
"And Harry, Zayn, Niall and of course Liam, didn't make it too. This Simon guy, who is now our manager, made us into a bad. I met all of the guys and got close to them, and you being my closest friend you met them too," I smile at his words. So they really are my friends.
"You and Liam started spending more time together and you fell in love with each other. So you dated," I feel him shrugging. Thanks for rushing my romance, Louis.
"And how's our relationship?" I quietly ask him, playing with his fingers.
"Alright," I feel him shrugging again.
"Tell me about yourself," I nudge him. He softly laughs and wraps his other arm around my waist.
"What would you like to know?"
"Tell me about your life," I look up at him smiling. His eyes are sparkling from the moonlight. He has beautiful eyes, almost like the blue of the ocean.
"Well, I'm in a very famous boyband," he laughs.
"You probably get a lot of girls," I laugh with him. He stays silent for a few seconds.
"I guess," he quietly tells me.
"What do you do in your free time?" I ask him.
"Well I'm mostly with you. Or the lads. Or with you and the lads," he laughs.
"What do we do? Me and you?" I ask him concentrating on the beauty of the moon.
"We just hang out. Kind of like we're doing now," I hear him smile.
Well I can understand that, this is quite fun and relaxing.
"What sports do you like?" I ask him turning my body around so I was now facing him.
"Soccer," he tells me shurgging.
"Do you play?" I ask cocking an eyebrow.
"Oh, I'm the best," he sends me a wink causing me to laugh.
"I'll just have to see for myself," I wink back at him. We remain silent for another few seconds until I decide to break the silence.
"Do you have someone special in your life?" I ask him out of curiosity. But there's more to it than just curiosity though. I just don't know what or why for that matters.
"Let's go back inside," he tells me standing up. I pout at him.
"Will you tell me?"
He sighs and nods, holding his hand out for me to take again.


Why can't I see myself with Liam, but for some reason, I can see myself with Louis?
