kit
Kit had no idea why Louis was there.
Or why he was mad.
Okay, maybe he had an inkling of an idea.
It was a little incriminating for Clementine to be holding hands with her ex as it totally looked like they were on a date.
Kit didn't have a chance to ramble on in his mind any longer because Louis grabbed Clementine's things and held his hand out for her, beckoning her to get up.
"Come on, time to go. You can explain in the car."
This was said quietly, the whisper of his voice contrasting against the anger behind it made Kit want to stand in front of Clementine.
It was okay for Kit to still feel protective right?
Clementine stared up at him with those beautiful blue eyes of hers.
Kit could have sworn he saw a tint of fear.
Had Louis ever used this tone with her before?
She stood up abruptly after a tense moment and as she took Louis's hand, her eyes welled up as she mouthed "sorry".
Louis turned on his heel and very nearly seemed to drag Clementine out of the cafe and to his car.
Kit wanted to do something more than just sit there stupidly like a coward, but he felt frozen. It shocked him a bit to see this side of the couple.
He just hoped Clementine would be alright.

clementine
Louis was kind of scaring her.
He was quiet and hadn't said anything to her. He had just dragged her to the car and thrown her stuff in the back, tossing her a "get in" before doing it himself and starting the car.
Her movements were slow, like if she moved too fast he might snap.
It was totally irrational to feel this way as Louis has been in these moods before and nothing bad happened. She just needed to stay quiet and not do anything more to provoke him and it would all be fine.
"What the fuck were you doing with him?"
She hated the way he said "him". Like the thought of Kit was disgusting.
Louis took an exasperated breath when she stayed quiet and asked her again,
"What were you doing with him? You know how I feel about him and your history!"
She looked down at her hands,
"I just wanted to clear up any residual feelings that we might have had for each other. It's solved Louis. I only want you."
She wanted Louis to believe her so this would be over. She desperately wanted to believe it too.
When they arrived back at Louis's flat, he slammed the door as he got out the car.
He was clearly still upset and the silent ride she endured had to be evidence of that as well.
She followed him, blindly, as always till they were inside.
All the way until he sat down on the couch, holding his head in his hands.
She stood there in the doorway, waiting, wishing, for Louis to say something.
He eventually called over,
"Close the damn door Clementine."
She did as told, she had honestly forgot that it was open.
"Come here, sit."
She did as told, and sat tiredly next to him, looking at his still downturned face. She was imploring him to look at her and tell her all would be well.
He didn't, but he did look at her and slowly, tentatively embraced her. He held her there, in his arms, her face pressed into his chest.
Clementine was forgiven, this is how she knew.
She was so relieved that she felt her eyes prick with tears, and her nose begin to run.
When Louis felt her tears dripping onto his shirt, he pushed her away and moved his hands to her face, holding her there.
"No need to cry, I'm sorry for reacting the way I did. But you must understand why I was upset. It's only reasonable I've acted the way I have, it's not my fault."
Clementine nodded. She added a soft smile too, staring into his eyes and trying to appear somewhat normal.
It's what Louis wanted to see, after all.
