Opposites Attract? ~ Larry Stylinson

Five

School quickly rolled around again, the dreaded Monday morning. Louis' weekend hadn't been great either as his knee was and is still in a lot of pain but he's got his surgery coming up on the first which is just under two weeks away so he's hoping it will get better. He's still devastated with the news that his football career is probably over, so much so he has barely slept or ate. To play professionally for Donny Rovers or even England had always been his dream ever since he was a young boy playing in the park with his first football and now it had been crushed.

Louis got up out of bed and got dressed in what he believed to be his horrific school uniform, hating how ill fitting it was; his blazer bulky on his small frame and his trousers baggy on the legs yet tight on his apparent Kim K sized ass. He hobbled back into the living room - AKA his temporary fix of a bedroom - to see his sisters watching some babyish TV show while messily eating their toast with butter dripping down their chins. Louis sat down next to them on the sofa and his mum quickly handed me a plate of toast. Surprisingly he ate both slices of it and he could see his mum with a proud smile on her face which was rather nice because he knew she was worried about him not eating as much after his dream was destroyed. After everyone was ready they all hopped in the car and drove off to school.

Louis' mum dropped him off at the gate where Liam and Zayn stood waiting for him.

"Tommo, are you ready to focus on grades and apply for uni?"

"Ready as I'll ever be but I've not really got any other choice and who knows maybe it will do me good"

"That's the spirit pal"

The boys walked into form and Louis was immediately met with Eleanor standing right in front of his face.

"Hey babe do you want me to help you to your chair or anything?"

"El love I'm good right now"

"Oh OK but let me know if you need anything because I will be more than happy to help you. I could even be your personal nurse" she whispered the last part in my ear with a smirk on her face. Sure he and El had been dating for a couple months but it was a bit early in his mind for anything like that.

"I will love"

After form was over Louis had drama - potentially his favourite subject- which was great. He played Danny in their school's production of Grease last year and he got a special award for his amazing performance. This year they hadn't had a main performance because of exams but they just have fun in drama class now.

Louis went through the day pretty successfully actually though his knee was pretty sore still. He couldn't wait for his surgery so he would be in less pain but the healing process is still a really long time. His final lesson was Geography which truly sucked, way to end a good day of school. He hobbled down the corridor on his crutches with Liam and Zayn beside him. He sat down in class next to that nerdy boy, Henry and his mate Neil.

"Hey how are you feeling? I saw what happened at the game looked pretty bad" the curly nerdy boy spoke

"Yeah well torn my ACL and practically ruined my football career so now I'm focusing on studying and applying for uni. "

"Sorry for that Louis but glad your focus on your studies"

"Yeah thanks..."

"Harry"

"Well thanks Harry"

Louis then focused on his work for about ten minutes of the lesson when there was a knock on the door. Everyone's heads raised to see who was at the door. It was Mr Wilson the PE teacher.

"Hello sir could I please borrow Louis"

"Take him"

"Okay"

Louis got up out of his seat and hobbled towards Mr Wilson - crutches in tow.

"Hi Louis were just gonna go to the meeting room round the corner"

"OK" I said as we made our way there. Mr Wilson signified for me to take a seat so I did so at we started talking.

"So Louis your mother filled me in about your injury so I just want to know what are your plans for the future?"

"Well I'm gonna apply for uni and my knee should be fully healed between November and January time"

"OK sounds good, I know you wanted to go to a football academy but Manchester uni does have a football program so maybe when your knee is healed they'll allow you to join"

"Cool but I've got to focus on my grades now as they're not looking to good at the moment and exams are coming up"

" I can get a tutor for you to help you"

"Sir I don't know if that's necessary?" Louis complained, he was one of the most popular people in the school, what would it look like if he was being tutored by an utter nerd?

"Sure it is. Stay here a second while I go talk to Miss Smith about a suitable candidate"

"Fine okay"

"That's the spirit lad, now be back in a jiffy."
