« Time is a funny little thing, a little change of scenery, being Louis taking the other way, could end, or safe a life. In this case someone had to take matters in their own hand, leading to one of the most beautiful Lovestorys»
Louis was sitting in his favourite Library, fokused on the old book infront of him. The Boy Loved reading, especially old Books like the one he was reading right now. It was just something about the texture of them, thier smell, and thier well choosen words the boy could go on and on about for hours.
Other People his age were probably more interestet in Girls, clothes or video games, but not him. Louis had always been more interested in Books of all kinds and reviews of them, then any video games or brands, making him a bit of a loner but honestly he didnt care about it that much. He accepted the Way he was a long time ago and even though it took some time he was at peace with himself.
Which was once again very unusual for his age these days.
Today was one of those typicall afternoons, which the Boy spent in a Library, lost in his favourite Book once again. It was a bad habit of him, that he always just read the same book over and over again, but all the time he found a new view or a new detail he loved.
The hours went on, while the sun outside kept going down, unnoticed by Louis . The Boy sat unmoving, his knees pulled to his chest, Book sandwiched between him and them.
Not a single soul dared to interrupt him, not that anyone would have been there to do so. But by his concentrated look, everyone would think he was studying a difficult problem, rather then reading out of fun.But, as usual Louis was the only one near by, except for the rezeptionist that was of course.
over the years Louis had grown to like the old Lady named Babara. Sometimes she would bring him hot chocolate or cookis and Louis would always thank her wit a small, Shy,smile. The woman had grown on him as a friend over the years, already kind of acting like a grandmother to the boy.
Today however, his reading Session got interrupted by the Librarys closing hour. "Hey ma' boy, time to call it a night don't ya' think dear?" Barbara asks, her Scottish accent sticking out, as she was about to turn out the light."Sorry, I got carried anway.. I'll take this one home, okay?" Louis exused himself, as he collected his stuff,showing Barbara the book he Was Reading a second ago."Dont you always?"
Barbara smiled, checking the Book out of her system, so Louis could take it Home. This time the brunette had decided on a
Book by Charles Dickens, one of his said all time favorites. "Okay, out you go Boy." Barbara said practically dragging Louis out with her as she finished with the book." See you tomorrower Barb." Louis said, before
hurrying to get home. The Way to his apartment wasn't far, just around the corner, but he had to go past a very dark ally, he avoided whenever he could. Especially today, when it was already dark in general, the boy feared this short part of the way.
Louis could have gone another way, but it would take him twice as long to get home then and after already spending half of his Day at uni, he looked farward to get home as soon as possible. Anxiously the Boy made his way. He enjoyed the evening air, even though he felt like someone was looking at him all the time, he turnen it down as paranoia but keept Looking back from time to time only to find absolutely nothing. The Boy could swear his heart stopped for a second as suddenly a heavy mob of brown curls bumped into him from the front. Out of reflex the Boy pulled away with a yelp, as he got to look straight into a pair of emerald green eyes. The Stranger starred at him for multiple seconds before forcefully grabbing louis shoulders."Fuck, finally" the unknown man exclaimed, breathing heavily. "I've searched everywhere for you Lou. Oh, thank god" the curly haired boy said, pulling him into a thight hug, which the
Boy Accepted out of shock. Overhelmed by the sudden appearance of the stranger, louis took a moment before pulling away.
"Who are you, what the hell?" he asked panicking as the relalisation of his situation kicked in. The Curly haired boy swallowed visibily, deflating his dimply smile for a second. "Fuck. wrong timeline." - with that he suddenly took a few steps back, giving Louis room to calm his raged breathing. "Eh, oh god this is strange.." the man chuckled, scratching his neck. While louis Seemed to Consider just running away, the stranger sorted his thoughts. "Listen Baby-, in mean louis... I know this is probably strange and you're scared but i promise I'm not trying to get into your Pants, at least not in this timeline, not right now, whatever, I'm loosing my fokus. Please just forget this ever happened ,and when we Meet act like you dont know me ,because I will not, I won't. Ehm, yeah until then ,take care love." He rambled awkwardly taking a breath. Louis was about to leave ,to hopefully forget what in hell just happend ,when suddenly he felt the strangers lips on his, pushing him backwards until his back hit a wall, without thinking he responded, for some reason it felt natural, as if they were made to fit together. Every kind of fear leaving his body as a warm feeling came over him.
Sadly the Stranger pulled away rather quickly. Making the little fire works inside Louis stop.
"Sorry, sorry, ill probably mess up time even more, but see it as a last wish. Wait no, that's not- forget it, I'm such an idiot. I'll get to the point now, sorry... Can you do me a favor? Go the other way home ,okay? It'll do us both good, Eh- yeah..." With that the curly head finaly turned around,hurrying to get away. Louis stood dumbfounded for a second, asking himself which kind of physiological drugs he accidentally took. However, he took the other way home, just as the stranger requested. It wasn't because he didn't wanted to face the dark ally, or because he had that feeling of beeing watched again as soon as the stranger disappeared. He did it because he somehow trusted the boys judgement.
Soon enough the feeling of being followed disappeared once again and he got home safely, not knowing how another stranger,who wasn't as handsome as the curly head ,just cleaned his dirty laundry.
A few days past from there on, Louis was back to normal, turning the events from the night down as some kind of strange daydream.It was a Thursday when Louis next sat in the library, reading charls Dickens once again. Everything was back to normal.
Barbara sat at her desk, doing her usual work and Louis was back to uni at mornings, after he took a day off to get his mind cleared.
The doorbell Rang sofy, announcing a new visitor of the library. Louis didn't even look up,as the person entered, going straight to the book section all around computer science, before sitting down on the opposite of Louis. "Wow, you like Dickens?" A awfully familiar voice asked,making Louis jaw drop right away, his eyes fokusing in the curly haired boy. "Oh, sorry i didn't mean to interrupt you, I'm Harry" the stranger introduced himself giving Louis a familiar smile."W-what? How" the brunette boy stuttered confused, closing his book in shock. Was this some kind of joke? Was this boy messing with him?"I just wondered if you're reading Charles Dickens ,hes my favorite.." Harry smiled unimpressed by the smaller boys rather strange behavior. "Eh, yes i do I mean I was uhm, - listen, do i know you?" Louis asked confused."Not that I know" Harry replied, equally confused by the strange question. The boy had just moved there, planning on starting uni next week. "You're just really pretty and I though I'll try my luck" he cheekily continued, getting Louis to chuckle a bit awkwardly.
Little did they both know, they found not just their Soul mate thus day, but their Savior. Harry saved Louis from a very ugly death by inventing something humanity hadn't seen, and Louis survival saved Harry as he missed the drunken driver, over running a sidewalk he was supposed to be at. But after they first meet in the library they talked for hours, Harry missing his bus, so he stayed to talk to Louis even longer instead of walking home.Time is a funny little thing, a little change of scenery, being Louis taking the other way, could end, or safe a life. In this case someone had to take matters in their own hand, leading to one of the most beautiful Lovestorys.
