I Won't Give Up - Haven

[LOUIS ARDEN FITCH]

[/color] he chuckled a little, knowing how strange that probably sounded. Anyways, you'll know where to go once you get there and I'll be waiting. No questions, now okay? I'll talk to you soon babe, bye! Love you! Louis hung up before Haven could object.

Getting in his own car, Louis drove to the college where he and Haven first met. He knew she'd know to go to the little stage he'd been performing on that first day he'd seen her. In front of the stage was a solitary chair with her name on it. Louis went behind stage with and waited with his guitar for Haven to arrive.

When he heard her come in and go to the chair, Louis walked out onto the stage and began to play and sing a song he'd written just for this occasion. The words were very specific to them and it would be obvious to Haven that he'd written this song especially for her. [/ul]

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up, still looking up.

Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I would lie & say that you're not on my mind... Beautiful chaos was how Haven explained her life now. Everything was crazy, wonderful and she was purely happy. There was hardly a moment each day that haven didn’t have a smile on her face. Her employees even noticed it and commented on how it looked god on her. Haven had louis to thank for all of. Since he came back to her a little over two months ago her life had fallen back into place. It was always that way when with louis. She had been fooling herself in being with clark. She thought she could be comfortably happy in her numbness while with him but it was evident that that hadn’t been the truth. Now haven had love that brimmed over at unimaginable levels. He was always stopping by the shop with coffee or lunch. Sometimes he stuck around while she worked though at those times he was usually more of a distraction then anything else. Not that she minded since she loved having louis around with her. Whenever they were apart for more then a couple hours, haven was all over louis. They weren’t always ripping each other’s clothes off but she would clearly show him how much she had missed him. They had already spent too much time apart and haven hated to spend even the smallest bit of time apart from him now. That’s why him going to new york for a few days would be torture on her. She already had plans to have his favorite dinner and a special night planned out. Cameron planned to be out of the house for the night then he’d be holding down the fort. The thought of cameron made her sad. He was spending so much time to do the one thing to show kylie that he still loved her and it was proving to be in vain. Kylie would dismiss haven whenever she even lightly broached the subject. Who knows the response if haven mentioned cameron was living with her! Today at the shop she had a meeting with all her staff about how things would be run while she was gone. She had a manager to oversee things now but that she would still have the final say in everything. Haven planned to come back to help out with the larger scale weddings but otherwise she had faith in her employees. Afterwards haven went into her office to do some paperwork. Being a warmer day she wore a lightweight cobalt blue tunic which flowed nicely. She wore some skinny jeans and then pumps the matched her top. Around her neck was an infinity necklace which louis had given her long ago and then some crystal earrings of her own. If she had known what was waiting on the other end of this phone call from louis, she wouldn’t have worn this outfit today. ”Hey you.” haven’s features went from happy to confused. ”louis what is this-” he hung up on her! The little pain in her behind. With a huff haven left her office and went outside. Her employees had funny looks on their faces and were giggling. She stepped outside and saw a chauffeured car waiting for her. She slide into the back and fiddled with her phone during the drive, texting jesse and kylie that louis had another surprise for her. Haven was very lucky because louis was always doing little things to make her smile or laugh but this seemed a bit larger then normal. As the car moved she realized where they were pulling up to. Haven shook her head as she chuckled. It didn’t take haven long to get where she knew she had to go. Fond memories flooded her. If she didn’t have to get right to the expansive auditorium then she would’ve gone so many place. Her heels echoed in the empty room until she got to a chair. She looked down at it before she sat down which is about the time louis came out. As he sang to her haven just smiled stupidly as tears sprang to her eyes. She understood the meaning behind the song. She tried not to cry to much. She ended up leaning forward in her seat so her elbows rested on her knees and she rested her head in her hands. That still couldn’t hide the wide grin as the smile traveled up to her eyes. The entire time her heart sped out of control. Between the song and the way he looked at her the entire time made the moment intense and wonderful and perfect. When he came down and pressed his lips to her own, Haven reached up to place her hands around his neck and pulled him downwards to her. As he pulled back is when haven herself stood up. ”what’s this?” but louis didn’t say anything. She read over it and groaned. ”really? A scavenger hunt?” still nothing. Haven stomped a heel clad foot as she laughed in frustration like she often did with louis arden fitch. She was intent on not being moved form this spot but the look in his eyes told her she should play along. Haven made her way back to the chauffeured car but louis disappeared elsewhere. She made a note to beat him with her shoe later on. The drive to the shop felt much further away. As soon as the car had stopped she noticed louis car already there. ”The bastard,” went through her mind. When she entered her shop none of her employees were in sight! She began to move through the place and she would hear an employee occasionally shout “hotter!” or “colder!” until haven ended up in the back room where they kept the flowers. Inside were a bouquet of lisianthuses and roses with the envelope with the next clue in it and louis in the corner. ”really, louis? What is this all about?” notes: well then... - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[/color] He said with a rye grin and rubbed his nose against hers. Louis continued to hold her after he'd given her the envelope, rubbing his hands slowly up and down her back. He watched her closely, unable to contain his smile, as she began to read the card. Her look and reaction afterwards were exactly what he'd expected from her.

Laughing softly, he nodded. You're not too old for a little Scavenger Hunt fun, now are you? Louis tucked some of her hair behind her ear. He took the opportunity to kiss her luscious lips once more, letting his hands gently hold either side of her petite head. Come on pretty lady...You have more clues to find. Louis held her hand as they leisurely walked through the halls of their alma mater , talking about their past there and all the wonderful things they'd done and experienced with their friends and just the two of them. When they reached the vehicles, Louis kissed her cheek and said he'd see her at the shop.

Louis couldn't help but laugh as he watched Haven search her own shop for her next clue, the girls that worked there delighted to help out. When she found the envelope, Louis left his spot against the wall and walked towards her. Standing behind Haven, he put his arms around her waist and watched over her shoulder as she opened the next envelope. Inside was a sketch he'd done of her, sitting on the front step of the little apartment where they'd first lived together.

Louis smiled mischievously You'll just have to keep following the clues babe. He winked at her and said Now where do you think we're supposed to go now? When she guessed their old apartment, Louis smiled and nodded. He took her hand and together they went out to his car. On the way to the apartment, Louis refused to answer any of Haven's questions. He'd just smile that "I've got something up my sleeve" smile and say You'll just have to wait and see babe. When the pulled up to the apartment, Louis reached in his pocket and pulled out a key, handing it to Haven. I got in contact with our old landlord...He remembered me. Kinda hard to forget the guy that caught the stove on fire right? Louis chuckled Anyways, it's not rented out at the moment, so he said we can go in and look around, Getting out of the car, Louis walked around the front, and opened Haven's door for her.

Louis let her go up first to unlock the door, then followed her inside. The apartment looked about the same as it ever had, just without their personal touches. A flood of memories came back again and Louis found himself saying "remember when..." and "y'know how we..." and so on. Finally, after their second trip down memory lane for the day, Louis suggested Haven look for her next clue. Louis knew Haven would know exactly where to find it, if she thought for a moment. In the bedroom, was a little "secret" door that popped out of the wall. It was only about a foot wide, a foot tall, and a foot deep and was probably meant for a safe. But when Haven and Louis had lived here, he'd often leave special little notes or treats for her in there.

When she did find it, Louis watched with amusement as Haven's features showed a range of emotions, from amusement, to slight frustration, to puzzlement, and understand all at once, as she read the note:[/ul]

There's a task ahead of you
But don't worry, the tools you need
are under a tree that's very special
to you and me.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I would lie & say that you're not on my mind... Haven felt her heart swell with love. This wasn’t the first time he had written a song for her but each time he did so it made her feel so very loved. Not that he didn’t show it in other ways but him putting this on the album would just show everyone else. Even if no one knew it was specifically for her, she knew. Really, that’s all that mattered. That and how happy she felt with him in general. Even more so when he pulled her close like this and smiled one of his mischievous grins. It sent Haven’s heart on hyper drive. She was so terribly in love with this man. Haven tilted her head back and pretended to be in deep thought. ”Well I guess not. But pretty soon I’ll be a decrepit old woman who will be unable to do these things.” Haven loved she could just joke with him like so and louis didn’t care. They could move from joking to tender moments very easily. She made a noise of protest when he pulled away form the kiss but gave into holding his hand as they walked through the school. One last look was placed over her shoulder at the auditorium. Everything about haven’s life had changed in this college. She had gone from a girl, afraid of the world and making connections, to a woman who knew what real love was. louis was tied up in so much of her past and she had so much of her future wrapped up in him. Everything she saw happening one day she saw with him. Even if the man could frustrate her to no end. Yes, she was having fun but she was doing all this searching in heels! That made things a little bit complicated and slowed her down some. Not that she cared if they got ruined or anything. Once she did but that’s because haven didn’t have money. She took extra care of all her clothes. In some sense she still did but heels weren’t a necessity for her wardrobe. They were something extra she had to look nice for work. The thoughts filled her more as haven opened the envelope. Their first apartment. The place had not been the greatest but she had taken great care of it. They had taken care of it and filled it with many memories. ”Hmm the moon?“ She peered sideways at him, trying not to smile but she couldn’t help it. Haven reached up to put her hand over his face and push at it gently, not much force at all as it was more playful. ”Why are we going back to our first place?” As they pulled up to the apartment, Haven peered through the windshield at the place. When haven had first moved here it had been very hard. She had been alone and very scared. Eventually louis changed that. Now they were back to trying to make her feel a little less alone again. Laughter left her lips as she turned back to him. ”who could? especially when it was just eggs?” she grabbed the key from him and went up to the place. A chill went down her spine as more memories flooded her. What was with this journey down memory lane? Haven hoped it didn’t lead anyplace unpleasant, like their time apart. They had moved past that. Not that haven didn’t enjoy remembering all the good stuff but some habits were hard to break, like her being a little too anticipating of things going wrong. That’s how things always seemed to go at point in time or another. Finally they moved into the bedroom. She remembered when she would trip over his art supplies when she got up in the middle of the night but he always made it up to her. Stepping in here it’s like haven could almost remember exactly how everything had been placed when they lived here. With a wide grin she went to the trick spot and popped it open. Haven had discovered it completely on accident when cleaning one day but it had been used for many fun times. Haven knelt down and popped it open to get the next note. As she read over it she drew in another sharp breath as if frustrated but the smile remained somewhat on her face. Haven looked over her shoulder to peer at louis as she straightened herself. ”you mister, are very lucky I’m in love with you.” haven led them back out of the apartment and she looked around the grounds. It’s almost like she could see echoes of them running around out here at midnight playing flashlight tag, annoying the other people in the building. Just more memories that filled her mind as they got back in the car and drove off to the rockport trails. They parked near the entrance to the trails and moved down it. The last time they had been here had been bittersweet. They had had fun but it had ended in another one of their famous blowouts. Haven tried to ignore that and focus on the good memories form prior. It was easy when she reached the tree with their initials carved into it. Instead of a plus sign in the middle of their initials there was an infinity symbol. She didn’t get to focus for long as she looked downwards at a bucket. There were some gloves and a shovel. She looked at louis with amusement. ”oh! Do I get to bury you alive for being a pain in my ass today?” of course she was teasing as she opened the note with a map enclosed. Haven ran a hand through her hair and groaned. ”katadin? We’re going katadin? That’s an hour out!” not that it mattered. She may act all frustrated but she was really excited for this. This was a fun way to spend their last day together. When they finally got to the mountain haven followed the path until they got to the spot. It wasn’t hard since she could tell where he had dug prior. Haven dropped the other tools and put on the gloves before she began to push the soil in the shovel. ”you know the whole idea of burying you alive looks mighty fine right now. I could knock you out with this shovel then just drop you in the hold and bury you. I shouldn‘t be too hard to dig your way out, right?” notes: well then... - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[LOUIS ARDEN FITCH]

[/color] Louis laughed before leaning in to kiss Haven deeply. As he pulled away, Louis held her lip with his teeth, releasing it slowly. He heard her complaining moan as he let go. Don't worry you little hottie, there's more where that came from, and you'll get it later. Louis was only teasing of course. If Haven wasn't "In the mood" so to speak, he wouldn't push things. Louis had never been one to do so, like some guys who were jus plain pigs about sex. Louis swung their hands as they walked through the college talking about their times there and all the grand memories they had. They even talked about a few fights they'd had in the hallway and the day Haven had actually threatened to dump him, because he winked at a another girl. They were able to laugh at it now, but at the time, it hadn't been funny to either of the. Especially since Louis had only done it to tease Haven. The girl had been ugly in comparison to her...not that Louis was shallow like that.

Louis rolled his eyes at her when she said the moon. He began to sing softly. Fly me to the moon, and let me play among the starts. Let me see what life is like on Jupiter and Mars. In other words hold my ha-a-and. I other words, darling kiss me... Louis leaned over and kissed her cheek. You fill my heart with joy, you make me sing forever more, cause you are all I've longed for, all I've worshiped and all I've adored...In other words please be true. In other words, I love you. Louis laughed a little. Anytime Louis heard that song, Haven was the VERY first person that came to his mind and always would be. He laughed even more as she put her hand over his face. Louis reached up and gently pushed it down in a playfully manner. You will see when we get there silly. Louis replied to her question.

Louis followed her around the apartment, not giving her any hints on where to find her next clue. But he didn't need to. Haven, like himself, had a memory like a steal trap when it came to the two of them and their, what Louis considered to be, great romance. The love story that was Haven and Louis, was something out of a chic flick or a very well written novel. He watched as she popped open their secret place pulled out the next clue for their "journey". It was like a "Memory Lane" of sorts. Louis was taking Haven the places that had been most important and pivotal in their relationship, from the beginning, until now. After she'd read it, Louis titled his head and looked down at her, clasping his hands behind her neck, his fore arms resting gently on her shoulders. Yes I am. Louis took another opportunity to kiss her.

Louis followed Haven back out of the apartment and drove them to the trails. They walked leisurely to their tree, it being a nice, sunshiny day and all. Louis watched with amusement as Haven looked a bit puzzled at the bucket, shovel, and gloves. He stuck his tongue out at her. I thought you loved me! Louis said making a pouty face. Louis shook his head at her. That never bothered you before. He said, reaching towards her and pinching her ribs in the spot where they were most ticklish, making her body fold downwards and an uncontrollable laugh escape from her lips. Louis liked to tickle her sometimes. He liked the way she couldn't control her body's movement and the laughs the escaped her. Your sneakers are in the trunk He winked and lead her to the car. Louis was not unobservant. He knew Haven wore heels to work most days. He wasn't about to have her go up the mountain in heels, so he'd grabbed her sneakers out of the closet before he'd left the house that morning.

The drive was pleasant and their conversations ranged from light topics, to deep, yet short discussions. Neither of them mentioned the fact that he was leaving in the morning, because neither of them wanted to think about being separated again. A whole new meaning for "Separation Anxiety". When they arrived, Louis got out of the car and went to the trunk and got Haven's sneakers out for her. Going to the passenger door, he opened it. Swing your feet out her babe. When she did, Louis slipped her heels off, and put on her socks and sneakers for her, tying them, and kissed one of her upper shins. Got your map? He asked, as he grabbed the bucket, gloves, and shovel.

They walked up the little mountain to their favorite spot. Louis made Haven put on the gloves and pose with the shovel and bucket, right at their favorite spot, and took a picture of her. Alright, find your spot and get digging lady Louis told her, and smiled. When she found the spot, which wasn't really hard, Louis stood over her and watched as she dug about a foot down into the loosened dirt and pulled out a little, very ornate, antique jewelry box. Inside was an Infinity Necklace The symbol of Haven and Louis' relationship. As he watched her admire it, he came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her middle. He kissed her neck, nipping at her shoulder a little bit. You like it? He asked softly. When she answered, Louis smiled and said Here, lemme put it on for you. Louis gently brushed her hair aside, ad clasped the necklace around her neck, before kissing the base of her neck.

Louis moved to face Haven and hugged her. I don't want to leave without you tomorrow. He sighed. The prospect was downright depressing. After a little while, Louis suggested they be getting back. It was already almost 5 o'clock and they had an hour drive back. He was starting to get hungry. When they got back to the house, Louis asked Haven what she wanted for dinner, suggesting it might be fun if they made it together. Louis liked cooking, but he liked it even more when he got to do it with Haven. [/ul][/size]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I would lie & say that you're not on my mind... haven was very much enjoying their kiss, not so much the teasing he was doing. Between her noises of complaint and the way she glared at him, it was clearly visible she was not impressed at this moment. ”I better. You’re going to be gone so you have to make tonight memorable.” haven whispered it out despite not having to. It was a moment just for them. Everything about this little scavenger seemed to be about them. When they were last here their love may have been great but the two of them still had a bit of immaturity in them. Stupid squabbles and teasing one another in ways that weren’t that funny. Still, the good outweighed all the bad. Even the bad after he had left, which Haven had been honest about. Eventually they had to talk about what they each did with their lives while apart from one another. Haven tried to hide what she had gone through but it was louis-he could read her like an open book. He had gotten emotional once again about it and she had to reassure him it was fine and that she was fine now. She felt bad for even telling him because she had known it’d only make him worry. Haven hated to make louis worry more then he had to. As louis held haven and sang to her, she shut her eyes to stop the tears that threatened to spring up. She didn’t want him to leave tomorrow. This was going to be torture on her. She wasn’t going to be able to wake up and roll over to curl up with him. She wasn’t going to come home to talk about their days and make dinner with him. She wouldn’t be able to hear his soft voice singing to her when the moment inspired him(such as now). She couldn’t kiss him or hold him or make love. Shaven wouldn’t have the only man who made her feel safe by her side. Still, haven being haven kept it to herself because she knew louis was dreading it as well. Some people would find it weird they felt that strongly for it only being four or five days but for the two of them it was torture. They had already tortured themselves long enough being apart for four years. The college, the apartment, now the trails...she wasn’t sure what game louis was at but she was enjoying it. It was nice to get her mind off the fact that he was leaving. ”oh I love you babe but it doesn’t mean I always have to like you. Like now-I don’t like you but I like having this shovel to show you how much I don’t like you.” it was hard to come off serious with this moment with a giant grin on her face. As she straightened and grabbed the items while she glared sideways at louis. ”I like it when I have the proper shoes on. I am currently wearing three and a half inch heels. Not good for clim-hey stop it!” haven swatted at his hand as she laughed, for more then one reason, but mostly because he was trying to tickle her. Sometimes she hated that louis knew her so well. Oh well, she’d get back at him later. She always waited until the perfect moment, when he wasn’t expecting it, and got back at him. it was moments like that she clung to as the minutes flew by and the hours changed from one to the other, drawing them closer to their temporary separation. As louis slipped on the socks and sneakers on her feet she just looked at him with admiration. What other man would do this for the woman they loved? Not many that’s for sure. Haven had hit the jackpot with louis. Moments like this made her feel bad because she sometimes felt like she knew she didn’t have as much passion as him. It wasn’t her fault. After everything she had been through as a child, emotions were hard to come by at times. She often didn’t show her emotions as predominately as other people did. Haven felt bad about it at times but louis always understood. She was getting better, especially now that he was back in her life, but it was hard to understand unless you had been through it yourself. Still, haven’s stubbornness and inability to express what she wanted all the time didn’t stop louis. He still spoiled her and showered in love and haven did the best she could back for him. When he was done with her shoes she leaned down and pulled him up a bit to meet her in a kiss. Typical them-always trying to kiss or hold one another, no matter how brief it was. Haven pushed into the dirt with the shovel, occasionally glancing back at louis as he watched her. She felt like throwing a bit of dirt at him but refrained herself. She would be good since he went through all this trouble of arranging a fun day for her. When she finally hit something solid she tossed the shovel aside and got down to dig. Haven never really cared if her clothes got a little dirty. She pulled out the cloth wrapped item and relaxed to sit on her knees. The confusion was evident as she pulled the little box from the cloth. A wide grin formed. Haven loved old things in general and had for as long as she can remember. She left the cloth on the ground as she stood up while opening the box. Haven pulled out the necklace and got choked up. All she could do as nod and utter a soft ”yes,” in response to louis. As he slipped it on, haven held up her hair. Just the simple feeling of louis fingertips on her skin was something she was going to miss. now she couldn’t hold back the tears, especially as he faced her and bulled her into his embrace. She buried her face in the crook of his neck, breathing in his scent. She couldn’t even utter a response to him but just cried silently for a few moments. Haven didn’t want to let louis go, she wanted to stay on this mountain and hide away from reality but they had no choice. They had to go home and then come the morning he had to leave. Haven really was not looking forward to this at all. The car ride back was mostly silent. Haven was afraid to talk least she get emotional again. Even when back home she remained withdrawn verbally as she set her heels by the door and slipped her sneakers off. The box was set aside on a side able in the living room. Cameron was working tonight and all through tomorrow so her and louis would have the house to themselves. As she followed louis in the kitchen she shrugged before she looked in the cupboards. ”I’m not very hungry but I did plan on making chicken kabobs.” nothing new for haven when stressed, or emotional in general, her appetite went away and she just forced herself to eat. ”I‘ll make some rice to go with it.” she knew louis was hungry, and knew she should eat after running around, so there was n o reason to put it off. She reached in for everything the would need and brought it to the counter so they could cut up the chicken and vegetables. ”are you going to stop by and see your parents after you leave tomorrow?” haven reached for the chicken to cut up after she washed her hands. She stood next to louis as they cut the items up. Occasionally she’d steal one of the tomatoes and just smile sweetly, knowing he couldn’t really steal raw chicken. Fun and light. They could get emotional again tomorrow after all. notes: well then... - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[LOUIS ARDEN FITCH]

[/color] He said seriously. Louis knew Haven and how she was when she was depressed and he didn't want to come back to her looking like a skeleton. I already told Cameron he might have to force feed you. He teased, to lighten the mood a little, before leaning over and kissing her cheek.

Louis laughed as she stole tomatoes. He'd occasionally try to whack her hand to make her stop, but was only teasing of course. No, I won't have time tomorrow he explained. But I went to see them yesterday afternoon. Mom said she and dad would like you to come for dinner a couple times while I'm gone. Louis explained. His parents really did love Haven like their own daughter and couldn't have been happier to see them back together if they tried. Kaya especially had been truly heart broken when things had ended between Haven and Louis. They had been young and foolish then though and everyone made their mistakes. The important thing was fixing it and that's exactly what Haven and Louis had done and his parents respected them for it.

When he'd finished cutting the vegetables. Louis went to the linen closet and pulled out a tablecloth. Putting over their little dining room table, he put out the plates, utensils, and stemware, the took out the two candle holders and placed them on the table to be it when dinner was served. When everything was done, Louis made Haven sit down and he served their plates, poured them each a glass of wine, dimmed the lights and lit the candles.

Instead of talking about him leaving, Louis decided to discuss the tour and all the things and places he couldn't wait to show her. He told her how the guys were more eager then ever to meet her and how James would be bringing his girlfriend. When they finished and cleaned everything up, Louis asked if she was ready to "go to bed", which of course didn't mean to sleep at all, but it was getting late and he did need to rest sometime that night.

Louis smiled and carried Haven up the stairs to their room. He gently laid her on the bed, then crawled up, standing over her on all fours. He kissed her and when he pulled away he began to hum a familiar song, for a few moments, before starting to sing the lyrics.

Together can never be close enough for me
To feel like I am close enough to you
You wear white and I'll wear out the words "I love you"
And you're beautiful

Now that the wait is over
And love has finally shown her my way

Reaching into his pocket, Louis pulled his hand out, a beautiful engagement ring crowning the tip of his pointer finger. He held it out to her and continued to sing.

Marry me
Today and every day
Marry me
If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe
Say you will
Mm-hmm
Say you will
Mm-hmm

Haven...will you marry me? He whispered. The proposal was simple, but sweet. Louis had always done things in a big way for Haven, but this moment, the most precious and pivotal in their romance thus far, it needed to be sweet and to the point and very private. He hadn't even told anyone he was proposing. Louis was just that way, very private about serious matters. Plus, he had wanted Haven to be the very first to know.[/ul][/size]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I would lie & say that you're not on my mind... To haven, louis hung the moon. He was absolutely perfect in her eyes. Even despite all the bad, she only felt happiness when around him. Even when some sad memories overtook her while on the little scavenger hunt. He did everything in his power to take care of her, not expecting anything back. He was always surprising her in little ways with popping into the shop or having dinner ready when she got home. And he still put up with her nightmares come the nights. She was starting to get better again but she knew how scary it could be and felt bad. He just handled it all without complaint and still loved her. Haven was never sure how she got so lucky, considering her past, but she wouldn’t take him for granted. And while on tour, she planned to return the favor in taking care of him and in extension the band. Cheering along from backstage, cooking the boys some food and just helping them when seen fit. Of course when they all stopped at hotels to rest, she was entirely louis’ and only emerge from the hotel room when he did. With the concerts, interviews and the band needing meetings she wasn’t always going to have him to herself. So when alone she would make sure it was just them, no interruptions. They just had to get over this week apart is all. Haven kept her face blank as she nodded at him. ”ok I’ll ea,” was meekly let out. Not like she’d be able to get away with it. Louis and cameron seemed to be forming some sort of bromance so she had a sneaking suspicion louis would know everything ingested. Another way he was so good to her. Her years in foster care had damaged her beyond anyone’s belief but he saw past that. He did everything he could to help where possible and she was glad for it, even if there were moments she got frustrated. ”cameorn wouldn’t try that. He’s afraid I’m going to hurt him which I just don’t understand.” haven flashed an overly sweet smile at louis. Not everyone could handle haven’s moody ways and though her and cameron were closer then before, she knew he was still a bit afraid of her. if one knew her temper, it wasn’t surprising at all. When upset she-like louis-could get very intense. At least between her and him things were often broken as words were exchanged. but the worst was when she felt really hurt or wronged. Haven withdrew completely into a silent shell. She hardly ever spoke until everything sort of exploded one day, be it in tears or in anger. ”of course I’ll go see them.” she thought over things a moment as she continued to cut up the raw meat. ”Maybe if kylie and cameron fix things I’ll give them a day or two with the house then go down to see them. Stay in Portland. Oh, which I haven’t told you-I’m tricking kylie to come here. Though I’m just not sure how yet. I may say I have to go in for some sort of surgery and want her there. Anyways, I figured this week would be best since you won‘t be here and it‘s easier for just me to go hide while they act like teenagers then both of us. Oh and cameorn doesn‘t know so don‘t tell him.” the slightly romantic sides of haven were starting to make an appearance once again. She had been trying to figure out a way to get the two back together for awhile and now seemed the perfect time. Kylie was mostly healed and wit her and louis on tour then cameron and kylie could have alone time in the house. haven slide the vegetables and meet on the skewers before she took them outside to the grill that she had already started up. It was nice enough out to where she could cook food out there without freezing completely. It didn’t take long for the food to cook the food. She brought the food back in and went to put everything out but louis stopped her. She tried to protest but he wouldn’t hear it so she just rolled her eyes at him before she sat down to enjoy their meal. they talked about anything but the morning, much to haven’s relief. She wasn’t sure if she could handle talking about that again just this moment. Haven le tout a little yelp and a laugh as louis lifted her up in his arms. She didn’t even try to struggle, instead moved into the embrace as her hands wound around his neck and kissed the side of his throat sweetly. When he set her on the bed, she placed her hands on either side of his head as he kissed her much too briefly for her liking. She stared up in his eyes as she rubbed her thumbs along his hairline. Haven loved when he sang or hummed any tune to her. This one was form one of her favorite bands, other then him, and brought a wide smile to her lips as he went form humming the tune ot singing it. Haven remained completely silent as he moved. A confused look crossed her features as she watched him intently. As he pulled his hand from his pocket she dropped her hands from his head to see what he had. Tears began to spring to her eyes when she saw what it was. With the song he was singing it didn’t take much to put two and two together. When he finally officially asked her haven was sobbing but with a huge smile on her face. ”yes. Yes, louis, of course I’ll marry you!” haven wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him down to her in a passionate kiss. Of course she wanted to be married to him but she truthfully hadn’t expected him to propose this soon after getting back together. Then again they had been talking about marriage long before the break-up. This wasn’t that farfetched. Haven didn’t release louis from their lips being pressed together until he pulled away to slip the ring on her finger. It was gorgeous and unique-definitely them. A lot more exquisite then any ring she could have thought of. ”louis it’s beautiful.” her fingers went up to run throughout his dark brown hair as she rolled them so she now rested on his chest. ”you spoil me much too much mister.” she placed a kiss to the column of his throat as the silly grn never left her face. notes: well then... - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[LOUIS ARDEN FITCH]

[/color] He bumped her playfully. You're so angelic and all. Louis kissed her cheek, then went back to cutting the vegetables, humming various love songs softly as he did so. He smiled when she said she'd go see his parents. They'll appreciate it babe. Louis knew that Have already knew that, but sometimes it was nice to tell people how much they were appreciated.

Louis shook his head at her. You my dear had best be careful....Cameron is afraid of you and I'd be afraid of your plan, whenever you form it, goes wrong.....The saying is true you know? Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...You might see a side of Kylie that you didn't know existed. Louis didn't know Haven's sister well, but he knew she and a reputation for being sweet, bubbly, and easy going. But like everyone else, she was human and that meant fallible. Kylie had been through a lot in a short period of time. She was likely on the edge and Haven might just put her over it if she wasn't careful. I won't say anything hun...and if you need any help with this....risky...plot..I'll do what I can.

Louis tried to play it cool during their supper conversation. But he was nervous, thinking about the proposal waiting for Haven. Everything else had come along well though. She had seemed to enjoy the scavenger hunt and it had been a fun and entertaining, not to mention a bit romantic, way to spend their last day for a week together. They were already basically living the life of a married couple. But Louis wanted to make it official. He didn't see a reason not to. Sure they hadn't been back together that long, but things had been going well between them. They were young, in love, living the life. Marriage seemed the next natural and best step.

Louis watched Haven's face go from amused, to confused, to joy. And he felt relieved when she said yes. He wrapped his arms around her and pressed against her as he was pulled down on top of her, the warmth of their bodies against one another, stirring desire within Louis. He smiled loving as he slipped the ring onto her finger, and kissed it, before letting go to give her a moment to admire it. Louis smiled with satisfaction when she said it was beautiful. It took me some time to find it. But when I saw it, I knew it was the perfect ring....for my perfect woman. Louis meant it. With her flaws, with her temper, with her nightmares, and her "eating disorder" of sorts, that all made her absolutely perfect. Louis didn't expect anyone else to understand it. He didn't think anyone else really could. And that added to the beauty of their romance.

That's impossible. Louis whispered, as he looked up at Haven, tucking her hair behind her ears. His hands slid up under her shirt as she kissed his neck, giving him the opportunity to drink in the smell of her soft skin and her silky hair. I love you so much baby. Louis said in her ear, before nibbling at her lobe, while his hands moved up and down her sides, allowing his nails to graze her luscious skin. [/ul][/size]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I wanna know you inside out, I’ll spend my life trying to figure out ”of course I can’t think of a reason! I have never done anything in any type of threatening manner, my love.” yes haven would leave it at that. She had gotten in cameron’s face after he broke up with kylie but now she knew the whole story so really wasn’t mad. But at the time she had been protective of her younger sister is all. ”I don’t think it’ll be that bad. Obviously Cameron loves her still if he’s doing all the work on the barn and I know kylie still loves him just neither will make the effort. So I’m giving them a little push because sometimes that’s what a person needs. I don’t want them to wait too long is all.” haven shrugged her shoulders casually as she finished prepping the food. No, she didn’t want her sister and Cameron to end up like her and Louis; waiting four years before someone finally caved. ”well if you have any ideas on how to lure her here, let me know. I can’t even think of a type of surgery I’d be going on for.” she knew kylie wouldn’t come for no reason, especially where she was avoiding hope harbor, but if haven gave her one kylie would. It may be completely sneaky but they needed just a little nudge in the right direction it would seem. Haven truthfully thought the scavenger hunt and dinner were it for the day before Louis left. She had no reason to think anything else was happening. That aside, the day had been wonderful. Louis always tried to do things like this from time to time to keep a bit of the spark and adventure in their relationship. Something lacking when she had been with clark. Haven nearly forgot how great it was to have fun with someone you love. Now she got it often having Louis back and the memories of past adventures littered the halls. When they had gotten back together haven went through all her photos and put some up throughout the house. It felt nice to be surrounded by all these memories. Not growing up with a family, haven held those she considered family close and surrounded herself with memories she made with them. Not just pictures of Louis or his parents but her and kylie as well as some of her with Cameron. She was careful not to put out photos with kylie and Cameron together so she didn’t upset Cameron. Hopefully soon she could add those photos and then maybe take one of the four of them. That’d just complete everything. there was no hesitation when haven said yes. She had wanted to be married to Louis for so long that there was no reason to even think about it. She just truthfully didn’t expect it yet. Then again, Louis was always taking her by surprise. And make no mistake, her tears really were of joy. Haven felt like nothing could touch that at this point in time. She was completely and blissfully happy. She stared up at Louis with a wide smile on her face that lit up her eyes as she ran her fingertips along the back of his head and neck. ”it’s perfect but you know me I’m very easy to please. Most of the time.” haven quirked a brow suggestively as she looked upwards at him. Her hands began to move down his arms slowly as she rested on top of him while she pressed kisses up his neck gently. A delightful shiver traveled up her body as she sighed happily at his touch. ”I love you too louis. Me and you for all of eternity.” her breath caught when his teeth grazed her ear and she moved it to give him better access. when he was down she moved to press just a small kiss to his lips before she pulled back and looked down at him. ”now show me how much you love me.” there was no hesitation as Louis pulled her back down to him in a passionate kiss. The two of them never grew tired of showing their love for one another in any form. Their relationship had no shortness of laughter, love, joy, adventure, surprises and love. It was also filled with heated fights and the silent treatment when one felt wrong but they never lost sight of each other nor their love. Not anymore. Now they appreciated and expressed their love anytime they could. Tonight, in each other’s embrace. Haven reached to slip Louis shirt off as her breathing was heavy once parted from the kiss. It didn’t take long for her to lean forward to nip gently at the skin on his shoulder and neck, careful not to leave any marks where anyone could easily see them. notes: <3 - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[/color] He already had something in mind, but he couldn't tell Haven what it was exactly....at least, not yet. Plastic surgery? Louis teased, but followed it up with a kiss, so Haven couldn't get too mad at him.

Louis was happy that Haven was pleased with her ring, not that he'd been afraid she might not fancy it. He knew Haven better than anyone else on the planet. Louis knew her likes and dislikes and her tastes. When he'd first seen that ring, he hadn't had to look further. Haven's name was written all over it. He couldn't have found a ring more suited to her if he'd tried. I'm glad you like it babe. Louis said sweetly, and kissed her upper arm and her fingers ran over his head and down his neck, leaving goosebumps in their trails. Me and you for all of infinity." He breathed in reply to her words.

The chilly air hit him as Haven removed his shirt, but he didn't mind. Louis pulled her down on top of him, kissing her with a heated passion as he did so. He groaned into the kiss, his hands moving to hold either side of her head, Haven's golden locks covering his fingers. Haven broke the kiss, leaving him panting as she moved to leave her mark in discreet areas. After a few moments, he urged her up and began to kiss her again, keeping it going for as long as he could. When he broke away to breathe, Louis rolled over, so that Haven was now on the bottom. Grasping her wrists, Louis moved her arms so they rested against the pillows, on either side of her head. He kissed the center of her chest, then allowed his tongue to push against her fair skin as he moved to her collarbone. Louis nipped and sucked her skin, taking in her feminine flavor. After a while, he move up to the side of her neck and began to leave his mark, but only in an area that could easily be covered by her long hair. Meanwhile, his hands found their way under her shirt once again. Louis didn't attempt to remove the article of clothing from her body yet. Instead, he let his fingers play along the sensitive areas of her skin. Tonight, Louis was really taking his time with Haven. If he could make it last all night, he would. He didn't want to waste a single millisecond of their time together. A week might not seem like long to other couples, but to Haven and Louis, it might as well have been an eternity.

After sometime, Louis moved to loose the ties on her shirt and gently tugged it over her head. His hands slid beneath her, expertly releasing the clasp at her back, allowing her bra to fall loose. He then removed the item, tossing it to the floor before leaning down to kiss her ample breasts.[/ul][/size]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I wanna know you inside out, I’ll spend my life trying to figure out In just the few months of knowing kylie, haven stepped into the big sister role easily. She was very protective of kylie, especially in her fragile state. Haven knew how she dealt with difficult emotions. Mostly her body shut down. Between eating very little and sometimes, though rare, she just wouldn't talk to anyone. Haven withdrew completely into herself. When she wanted to just forget about something she became a stepford wife according to Cameron. Haven couldn't help it. The only person ever able to stabilize her moods was beside here in the kitchen. He would distract haven or help her find better ways to cope. Just another way that Louis was amazing. The list was long as she was always finding something else to add to it. Finding reasons to adore Louis was a favorite thing of haven's to do.not that she didn't love him deeply but it was fun to find all the reasons that she did. Haven shrugged a bit. ”I'll figure something out. I always do." haven had a million ideas swirling in her mind at any one time. She just had to pick one her head turned to the side as Louis leaned to press a kiss to her lips. She wouldn't not be that nice to him after his little comment. Joke or not she would give him the cold shoulder for the time being. But the cols shoulder never lasted long with them. Something always set them right in their playfulness and tender moments. Buried into his embrace, haven's grin was wide as she let out a breath of contentment. ”you do realize your mom is going to cry. Probably harder then when we got back together." her smile faltered for a moment but didn't disappear. Haven suddenly felt an overwhelming sadness and her heart squeezed. Despite thinking of getting married to Louis, she hadn't really thought about how lonely it'd be on her side. She had some friends she would invite but no real family. Haven wouldn't be going with her mother to pick out a gown or a father to walk her down the aisle. Her friends, Louis and his family were what she considered her family. She knew she had her sister and Louis' mom to help her but it honestly wasn't the same. Not everyone would get it nor did she want to explain it. Haven kept her poker face on as she didn't want to ruin the moment. Haven wanted to bask in the love and happiness of the moment. Louis and haven never lacked heat in their relationship. There was always a flame burning within each of them that turned into a full blown flame when near one another. Though their relationship wasn't based on the physical, they did express themselves to one another best that way. Not like either of them could complain as they always exhausted one another and was happy afterwards. Tonight was a mix loving and heated. Emotions always poured out between them when they came together physically but just like the day they had gotten back together, everything presented in tenfold. The sounds of Louis enjoying himself sent a groan from haven's lops herself. Their breaths mingled as they kissed and when apart was hot on their skin. Her own breath was caught a moment when Louis moved to be on top of her. With being unable to do much, haven arched her back as he moved down her body. Her breathing was heavy as her head tilted back as she felt his lips make contact with her body. She wiggled beneath him, wanting more but he teasing her. Haven both loved and hated when he did that. Even when he moved his hands from her wrists, she kept them above her head as she got the feeling he wanted them there. Just the look in his eyes told her that and haven wouldn't go against it. Yet. When he had removed the clothing from the upper half of her body and moves back to the sensitive flesh, haven's back arched once more as a low moan escaped her lips. She finally moved her hands to grip at his hair. She bright one leg up to wrap around his own and urged any space left between them to be gone. Haven wanted Louis as close as possible. Her hands loosened their grip on his dark locks and slid down his neck and shoulders. Her nails lightly gazed his skin as she moved back up his flesh. ”you're such a tease..." was breathlessly let out. She began to grind her body against his, wanting to feel any form of the friction she ached for at this moment. notes: <3 - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[LOUIS ARDEN FITCH]

[/color] Louis didn't mind of course. Sometimes you just had to lose it for happy moments in life. Especially if you were a mother. Louis understood it. I didn't tell anyone about this....I wanted you to be the first to know. He smiled, then kissed the top of her head in a tender manner. I think a lot of people are going to be very surprised. Louis could tell that Haven's spirits were slightly dampened. He figured he could guess why. But Louis had learned to never think you could read a woman's mind, or know EXACTLY what was on it (Though he was a pro at reading Haven and she admitted it), so he decided to ask. Everything alright babe? Louis inquired with empathy.

Louis drug his tongue across Haven's skin, enjoying her sweet taste. He could hear her moan and her quickened breath. He moved his hands to run his fingers trough her long blonde hair, loving the way it felt between his fingers. Louis scrunched fistfuls of her hair as he pressed his lips against hers. He felt her small body move beneath his own, her warm skin touching his own, making him want her even more than he already did. Louis allowed Haven to pull him closer, her leg wrapping around him, once he had removed her top. He let his slightly rough hands move over her sensitive areas, while he worked on other areas with his mouth. Louis groaned as Haven tugged at handfuls of his hair, making his scalp tingle with pleasure. He enjoyed when she did that.

Louis groaned as her nails grazed his skin and he nibbled at her neck in return. When she said he was a tease. That's because I love you so much. Louis managed to get out between staggered breaths. Louis wrapped his arms around Haven and thrust himself into her body. He began to grind, holding her tight, his breathe hot and heavy as her own. When they were brought to their climax, Louis fell next to her on the bed, his whole body heaving, sweat beaded on his forehead and chest. Wordlessly, he pulled Haven close to him, resting his chin atop her precious head, trying not to think about the fact that he was leaving in just a few short hours. If only she could come with him!

Louis reached down to grab the hand that bore the engagement ring. He moved his head so it could easily be brought to his lips and then kissed it, smiling at her as he did so. Then Louis placed it against his chest and moved his hand to caress her cheek, staring into her big beautiful eyes. Louis shook his head, a small, lazy smile on his features. How'd I get so lucky? Why would a lady like you, fall in love with me? He got a little choked up. Some guys would have said it just to sound good, thus making it corny. Louis said it because he meant it and that's what he was feeling right now. To most of the world, Louis was a puzzlement. To Haven, he was transparent, an open book. [/ul][/size]

[HAVEN MARGARET STOWE]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style,width: 350px; padding: 10px; background-image: url(http://i48.tinypic.com/4v3fjd.png);] I would lie & say that you're not on my mind... Haven understood him keeping it to himself. Besides, it’s not like there was anyone to ask permission of. Maybe kylie but kylie was not louis’ biggest fan. She seemed to be coming around to the fact he and haven were back together but she could tell she was still weary of some things. A chuckle left her lips. ”surprised would be an understatement. I think it’s a good thing kylie has no electronic means of reaching you. Good thing I have some time to ease her into the idea.” while she may hae kylie to be there with her, that didn’t replace having an entire family. She didn’t know why she even tried to hide her thoughts from louis. She was hoping she good but per usual was unable to. With a sigh, she avoided making eye contact as she picked at some non-existent lint on his shirt. ”can we just have a small wedding, maybe here in the barn? I’m only going to have kylie, cameron and jesse so…” she shrugged half heatedly. ”I just don’t want anything traditional.” haven hated to bring down the mood of the moment by revealing full out she was saddened by the thought of not having family there for her. She knew louis was really only close to his parents family wise but she knew he had plenty of other family members. She knew they’d technically become family but that didn’t make it any less hard. Plus, haven wasn’t very traditional-the big church wedding didn’t appeal to her at all. It was no surprise that haven and louis would seal this intimate moment with being intimately close. Her head fell back with louis’ hand moving through them. Louis knew all the right places to touch with his hands and lips to drive her crazy. Her own hand went to grip at his back side while the other ran up his side. A seductive chuckle left her lips. ”so because you love me you have to tease me? Fine-I‘ll return the favor.” when louis was moved away from her neck, her own lips found his ear. She knew how much it drove him wild to do that. Her teeth nipped all along the shell of his ear before she suckled lightly on the lobe. As gasp left her lips when she felt him bring them together as one. Haven moved in time with him until she felt herself build up to the edge and then come crashing down over it as the rest of the world faded away. All that mattered was this moment before them. Haven didn’t fight louis as he pulled her close. She curled against him, her eyes shut with bliss as she kept trying to steady her heart rate. That was pretty impossible when near louis. Her body was limp but in a good way. She shifted as louis grabbed her hand while she pressed a delicate kiss to his chin. She watched louis’ every movement with a soft smile on her lips. She tried not to think about how he was leaving tomorrow. She didn’t want to be apart for any period of time. Now that everything was worked out, the thought of even a short time apart was torture. Her hand pressed against his chest so she could feel his heartbeat while a look of love fell over her face. Haven could never get enough of being this close to him and feeling his heart beat in time with her own. Only louis could make her pulse spiral out of control and her heart feel so full of love. Her brow furrowed at his questions. Really? A lady like her? She was damaged beyond belief. No, she was the one lucky to have him. ”I don’t think it’s luck but it was fate. I almost didn’t go to the exhibition that day. I was dragged out of my apartment. If not for her you wouldn’t have been able to stalk me around the entire school.” haven moved her hand from his chest and went to lace with his own. Her thumb traced shapes along the side of his hand. ”I don’t think I could’ve ever helped myself from falling for you, louis. You love me without a care for my past. Not many guys would be so accepting. Not only that but you’re my best friend. I trust you with everything I have within me. I’ve never been able to trust before you. You wiggled your way into my heart and I never want to let you go.” haven sealed her statement by moving her head up to kiss his lips deeply but with a certain tenderness to it. notes: well then... - tags: louis - outfit: click!

[LOUIS ARDEN FITCH]

[/color] Louis kissed the top of her head and squeezed her gently.

Louis smiled and nodded in answer to her question. Mmmmhmmmm He groaned as Haven's mouth moved to his ear and she worked her magic on him, taking him over the edge and back, to the point of exhaustion. It never ceased to amaze him about the depth to which they could satisfy one another, yet still hunger for one another. It was like the two had a "void" for one another, which was always satisfied but never quite full, yet they were both happy with it.

Louis smiled lazily as Haven lay in his arms. He felt her hand come to his chest and he knew exactly what she was doing. It was something she'd done every time they were together and he'd never had to ask her what or why. Haven was feeling his heart beat. It made Louis happy that she still did that. He wished that he could erase the time that they had been apart, those 4 hellishly long years, so that neither of them could remember and their love would be that much stronger, that much more invincible.

Haven was right. It wasn't luck. It was fate. The way it all happened. She hadn't been planning to come that day, if Louis had looked her direction from the stage a moment later, he'd have missed her and they'd have never met. They'd never have had this wonderful relationship and they'd both be worse off for it. He laughed softly when she said he'd stalked her around the school. He really had. But at the time he didn't think she minded too much, and now he knew she hadn't. Listening to the rest of her little speech, sent happy chills down Louis' spine. Haven still thought she was damaged goods, which made him sad. Why couldn't she see what she had overcome? Why couldn't Haven understand that, while it may have at one point, her past did not define her. The abused child in the foster system, wasn't who she was anymore. Haven had come so far. She wasn't damaged goods. Haven Stowe was a strong, yet fragile, beautiful creature. Louis worshiped her and everything she was.

Louis returned her tender kiss, holding her face gently as he did so, making it last as long as they could go without air. They were each others life's breath. Without Haven, Louis would cease to exist and without Louis, Haven would cease to exist. They were one mind, one body, one soul. One, treacherously beautiful, love. To care about your past, would not be to love you....You are you....not your past. Louis whispered and kissed her once again. [/ul][/size]
