The Lonely Wife

Bella Rose

Louis POV

I can't believe he told me where she was at. I thought I would have to at least go after him and beat it out of him.

I was carrying the love of my life in my arms down the stairs.

Wow, he made this place amazing and unique, that is for sure.

He did say no one knew he had this place.

I am so glad he told me that Rosie is here and safe.

I feel bad for him that he knows now that what he had was the best, and now it is too late for him to get her back.

She is mine now.

I felt her moving and struggling in my arms and heard her mumble.

"No, der-Ek no let meee go, please. I do--n't want yo--u any---more," she mumbles, why shivering.

"Ooh, my darling, you are freezing. I will get you in the car to warm you up baby, go back to sleep." I whispered in her ear.

But she kept squirming, and she was frightened and thought I was going to hurt her, but then she stopped moving and went back to sleep.

I hope she understands it was me by the cologne I wear.

I put her in the car, and then I started up the vehicle quickly to get it warm up in there.

She felt so cold when I touched her. I even grabbed the sheet around her by picking her up.

I put her in the car and then put a seatbelt on.

I kissed her forehead and grabbed the sheet, and threw it on the ground outside of the car.

Then I ran around to my driver's side and got in.

I put the vehicle and drive and rush out of there.

I kept cursing Derek in my head. You moron, you could at least give her a big blanket on her when you left.

So I called him up to let him know that I pick her up and yell at him."Derek, I pick her up but come on, man, don't be a dick

For not giving her a blanket, but a f*****g sheet Derek you are just selfish." I ranted out to him over the phone.

"Lou man, I did give her a blanket. It must have been my guards. Are they still there.?" he asked.

"Nope, it was just her there and no one else. Why?" I asked.

" I guess this means they just left her there to survive on her own then. I will have words with them. When I find them, they will be sorry." Derek said with demands.

"So, is she okay?" he utters out.

"Yes, but she is frightened when I pick her up off of the bed. Oh, by the way, your sheet is outside on the ground in front of the house." I said with a smirk on my face.

"That is okay, at least you got to her. You are going to keep this place secret and don't tell anyone, right?" Derek rattles out.

"Yes, as long as you don't hurt Bella or anyone else hurt her like Jamie. Which, by the way, you was f*****g stupid for picking her over Bella here." I jab out.

"I know, I know. You don't think I know that. I will regret it for the rest of my life, for what I did to her." Derek speaker up brokenly.

I did feel bad for him, but it was his stupidity for doing what he did.

Now it is my turn to show Bella I am for her and always was me, not Derek.

I fell in love with her before he even noticed her yet?.

A bunch of Flash Backs.

Flash-Back When I was late for class, I noticed this beautiful creature with blonde hair and green eyes.

She was at her locker getting her books out. She didn't know I was there watching her, but I couldn't move out of that spot.

I noticed Jamie was walking up the hall and stopping in front of her.

The girl hugged her and said," Hey, bestie. I am finally here." I heard her gossiping to Jamie.

I looked over at Jamie, but she had no idea I could see them.

When she hugged her friend, she tightened up her fists like she was about to make bleed.

I didn't see it at the time, but I'm looking back now on that day. I can see now Jamie hated Bella.

I was so happy that I was late for class that day.

Flash-Back Because I Louis Walker was going to introduce myself to her after class. Before Derek gets his mitts on her.

Because everyone likes him and all the girls wanted him. Except for Jamie.

She never showed it well, not around me because she would always flirt with me.

I liked her a lot one time, no doubt about that, but I wanted someone that would be there for me and not for my best friend, Derek.

Some were strange, and she would always be there for him.

Flash-Back When I wanted to hang out with just her, I liked her more than a friend. I would call her, and she would be with Derek.

"No, I am helping him with his paper. How about some other time Walker." she would say.

I was not too fond of it when she would call me by my last name, but she would call Derek by his first name.

I would let him know by saying. " Okay, talk to you later then," I say on the phone.

She would say, " I am so lucky to you both as my friend." she uttered on the phone.

I always felt left out, too, but I would cheer up and spend time around her when Rose came along.

Derek, her boyfriend, would be doing something with Jamie. He rarely is with Bella.

He would call her his Bella Rose. I would call her Bells.

I think she liked it when I called her that, but she hated when he would call her Bella Rose or Rosie.

Jamie would be with other men, Bells would say. She said she be out of the hours of the night and get hotel rooms with her new boyfriend.

Flash-Back " I am so sorry, Louie, but Jamie has been going out with other guys. I thought at first it was you finally got with her. you know that she likes you and all." she voiced out.

"But I think it is time for you to find someone that wants to be with you and not playing the field." Bella said while grabbing onto my hand..." Bella, do you spend a lot of time with Derek?' I asked her.

"No, not he is always busy with work and football." she said."Why?" she asked.

"Well, he is never in his dorm room either?" I said.

Bella thought about it. Maybe he is getting help with his homework from Jamie. They are just friends, and besides, Jamie told me she is dating someone, but she isn't ready for anyone to meet him yet." Bells rattled out.

Bells would try to keep it hush around me about Jamie dating a new guy. But she felt bad for me because Jamie would tell her how much she liked me, she would say to Bells. But there was always a {but} in there.

So I let it go because I had my eyes set on Bells deep down. I am waiting for Derek to mess up to finally have the girl I have wanted since last year when I see her first by the office door at her locker.

But that was a lie. Now to think back, she was f*****g Derek and made us believe she was a f*****g slut.

Flash-Back "So how is the new boyfriend "I ? would ask Jamie when we had a business class together that day. she shrugged her shoulders and said, " Amazing, but we never really spend time spent together because the little sister would always call or text him." Jamie would say.

"Ooh, maybe you can spend time with her, and she probably stops and leave you guys alone?" I uttered out.

She just nodded her head, and I watched her look at her phone. Then she left in a hurry " I have to go. Derek needs me to help him with his paper right after class. I'll see you later, Walker." Jamie voice out.

I thought it was always strange she would have time for Derek, but never anyone else.

Jamie would leave and be with Derek and tell us that it was her boyfriend that we had never met or heard.

Derek, when he called or texted her, Jamie would leave everything to help him or him.

I first thought they were dating, but they both said they were just good friends.

Flash-Back Eight Grade "Hey, do you see the new girl?" Derek whispered to me.

"Yeah, I did do yo-" I said, but he interrupted me. " I am going to ask her out. She is so hot." Derek said.

"Yeah, she is nice looking," I said.

"What is your problem, man," Derek asked in a demanding tone.

"Nothing, man, it is just I liked her too. I got to know her. She is nice." I said.

"Ooh, so you already met her then?" he asked.

"Yes, and she is funny and smart, so very kind," I told him.

"Wow, you must like her.?" he questioned me.

" I think I do, but if you want to date her, then I will step back so you can date her," I said.

"No, man, I will not do that to you," Derek said.

"How about this? Neither of us dates her." Derek said.

"My friendship is more important than a girl, but if it is serious and either of us wants to date or marry the girl, we need to ask one another before we pull the trigger on it," Derek said.

"Deal," I said.

"Deal," Derek said, and we shook on it.

'Best-Buds," we both said at the same time.

"Boys, cookies," Mrs. Maston spoke up beside us.

"Cookies, Yes!" we shouted out and ran into the classroom.

Flash-Back Over.

So when I would back off for him if he liked someone, because friends do that for each other, they have each other's backs.

So I did that same thing when he met Bella Rose.

Flash-Back

Derek liked her and was just about in love with her, but he didn't know at the time. But I fell in love with her at first sight.

"Dude, I like her a lot and maybe love her," Derek mentioned while we were in the locker room.

"That so great, man, so are you going to ask her out.?" I whispered.

"Yeah, man, I think so," he mentions.

"Then go for it, man," I said.

"What about Jamie?" I asked him.

"Oh well, dude me, and Jamie is just friends. You already know that" he said while heading to the showers.

"Yeah, I know, but would she like it that you want to date her. what do they call each other?{besties} I did a finger equations.

"So are we good," he said while walking closer to the showers over his shoulder.

"Yeah, man," I shouted it out while watching him walking around the corner.

" I got ready so that I wouldn't be late to class, and I was rushing to class. I saw Bells talking to some classmates, and he was helping her with her books, and then Derek came up being her then grabbed the books from the guy, and he finally did. He asked her out.

Shit, I better get into class before my father takes my head off.

I was thinking back on that time. That was the first year she came to college. I should have gone up to her on that first day before she met Derek and Derek met her later at the cafeteria two months ago.

If things turned out different, we would be already married right after school and have at least two children.

"Hey, are you there, Lou? Hello, Earth to Louie?" I heard Derek on the phone yelling at me.

I shook myself out of it and replied to him.

"Take care of Bella Rose, man," Derek bravely spoke up.

"Well, yeah, of course, I will, I always have. Well, talk laters, man," I said, then I hung up the phone.

I hear her mumbling over there.

"No, go away," I heard her whisper.

"Bella, my darling are you okay, are you hurt.?" someone was rattling off and just very upset.

I am just so cold and sleepy. What is going on, I thought.

"I am cold," I mumbled out.

"Oh gosh, I am here, baby, I am here. Let me pull over so I can get you a blanket and turn up the heater in the car for you." someone utter out.

"Who are you?" I spoke up.

"Darling, it is me, Louis," the person spoke out.

I felt a lot more calmer now, knowing it was Louie beside me in the vehicle.

"Whe----re ar---e go-i-ng?" I utter while shivering.

I felt the car pull to a stop and felt a warm cozy blanket wrapped around me.

"Bella, it is okay; sit back and get warm.

"Baby, let's go home," I said while holding on to her hand and kissing the back of her hand.

I was driving the car with a big smile on my face.

"Finally, your mine," I said under my breath.
