"You should know that the one thing he loves is his company, he must have gotten scared after the allegations made against him."
"Wait, was that the reason you both were fighting?"
"Did you think of another?"
"Oh my, you're right, he must have been because of that."
"Well, you should be glad you can escape from here."
"I know, I miss them already. Thank you so much," she said with a smile on her face.
"You know what, you should go meet Mike, he misses you a lot," Louis looked at him with a face full of cheer.

Standing in front of her mum's house, Louis took a deep breath and then she pressed the doorbell. The door was opened and then a smile on her face gave a shocking expression to her mother.
"Luke!, Louis is back," she exclaimed in joy as she hugged her.
"Oh, my baby."
"I missed you so much, Mum."
Entering the house, Like came out of his room, and then with the same expression full of daze, Louis ran to her father.
"Oh my dear," he said pattering her back.
The whole family reunion was done as Louis decided to go to the balcony taking a look at the view of half the city, she raised her wine cup taking a sip of juice from it.
Her thoughts were silently equipped with memories of Moses.
"Louis," she turned around and then a smile formed on her lips dropping the cup on the bench as she walked toward Becky to hug her.
"Oh dear, if you only knew how much I've missed you," Becky said as Louis chuckled.
"I thought we'd lost you to that monster."
"I'll never stop till I get her," another voice spoke from behind as she looked at Becky's side to see who and then, she chuckled running toward the person, she was lifted from the ground as she kissed the person, placing a smile on her face, Becky consciously held to her locket.
"I miss you so much," Mike said hoarsely as Louis chuckled.
"I missed you too, so much," she smiled.
The two were about to kiss again but Becky couldn't get enough of their romantic attitude so she spoke.
"Alright guys, they are still some people who are single," Louis giggled, and then Mike placed her on the ground.
"Sorry, let's go inside," Louis lead them inside the house.
"How was that place?" Mike calmly questioned as she turned around and then she had a sad smile on her face remembering the event.
"Maybe there are some places that aren't full of joy," she mumbled.
"Do you want to take revenge, we could get him sued."
"What are you saying? I'm not thinking of getting him sued, besides, what's the use of trying to make revenge?"
"Listen, Louis, you don't need to be afraid."
"I don't fear him, is just that is something that you can't think of," she said with confidence but inwardly she was feeling a bit of goosebumps.
"You don't get any of these, you're only trying to protect him."
"I'm not protecting him, I'm protecting you, Mike, because they are just something you don't know about him," she exclaimed frustratedly.
"Hey, you both stop fighting, I know you guys are trying to defend each other but we can't spoil the mood because of him. How about we go out?"
"There is no need for that because I was ready before arrival, I brought some champagne for the festive."
"Yeah!" Louis said excitedly as she walked the two to the bar area of the house, taking a cup of champagne for herself, Louis pour another for Becky handing it to her.
"No, I can't take it, I'm on a diet," Becky softly confronted as Louis chuckled.
"What are you saying, Becky? The master of drinking is rejecting a drink, at least for the period, forget about your diet and just have-" Placing it closer to her, the smell of the drink made Becky nauseous, she stood up running to the toilet to vomit.
"What happened to her?" Louis asked and then she handed the cup to Mike running after her, she entered to see Becky on the floor as she vomited into the toilet, she walked toward her adjusting her hair.
"What happened to you?"
"Is nothing, I've been feeling sick these days, that's all."
"Are you sure is nothing major? Did you go to the hospital?"
"Yeah, and I've been taking pills, I'll be alright, is just a common sickness."
"Hmm, you look so pale," Louis took notice as Becky chuckled.
"Why not? A vampire has gotten the chance to drain my blood," Becky jested as they both laughed.
The two got back just to catch Mike in the act of wanting to lit a cigarette.
"Look at someone who said he's going to quit smoking," Louis stated as Mike looked up and then a questioning gaze stared at him like he was a child who got caught so he immediately threw the cigarette.
"I thought you both would be staying long," Mike tried to justify himself though Louis hit him hard on the shoulder.
"You're just so naughty."
"Only for you," Mile stated seductively, and then he caught Louis' hand placing a kiss on her knuckle.
"You're so much. C'mon, Becky, let's go," she stood up as she took a fruit juice for Becky, and then the trio drank and talked the night Becky had to leave midway, leaving just the duo who were drunk, Mike stared at Louis trying to concentrate his eyesight.
"So, you didn't tell me anything, why?" He pointed his hand at Louis drunkenly.
"What's re you saying?"
"You didn't text me, call me, or even dialed my number just once, you should know it breaks my heart thinking you didn't want me in your time of hardship."
Louis giggled.
"What are you saying? You don't know Moses like I do, and yes, I'll, I was just so afraid something might happen to you if I involved you. I was terrified."
"So I'm inefficient."
Louis moved closer as she caressed his long hair staying into his eyes.
"I'll never think of you as someone who is inefficient. You are more than that, though I wanted to fight alone."
"Did you get to move out alone? You should remember you're only mine, mine and no one else."
Louis chuckled. "Thank... You." She stressed it.
Looking at her lips Mike moved forward and then he gently savored her lips as the moment flowed, Louis raised her hand pulling him closer for the kiss but then, the lights went on as they were both interrupted by her mother.
