Blue-Eyed Baby

Chapter Eight - He's a friend

----- LOUIS' POV -----

It was Thursday, a couple weeks had passed since I'd met Niall and Zayn, we'd hung out a fair number of times gradually getting closer to one another. Niall was always the one asking us to go somewhere, be it clubbing or to the diner for lunch, no matter what it was the blonde boy always made a point of asking me. More times than not I had to turn lunch's down, you see, Stan and James still had no Idea I was even friends with the four lads, let alone having Harry tutor me. As for me and Harry we had still been doing – twice weekly – tutoring sessions and I have to say, they're fun. We've been getting close to each other, always having something to talk to one another about.

I was sat in my last hour of English for the day, trying to focus on what Mr. Thompson was telling us but all I could really listen to was Harry and Liam's conversation next to me.

"Hey, Li?" Harry had started.

"Yeah, H?" Liam hesitantly spoke back.

"Can we go out later?"

"I don't think any of us can, sorry."

"What why?"

"I can't because me and Jess are off out on a date." With that I leant slightly forward and saw that Jess wasn't in her normal seat, probably getting ready or something.

"What about Niall?" Harry questioned.

"He's got no class today and tomorrow afternoon," Liam began again, "So he's skipping class tomorrow and Monday morning to travel back to Ireland for a long weekend, he's taking Ami to meet his parents for the first time in a year and a half," he ended with a subtle laugh.

"And Z?"

"He's got class tomorrow morning and then he's going to London for the weekend with Evie, and I'm pretty sure he won't wanna be hungover driving for three and a half hours. I mean, would you?"

"No," Harry deadpanned.

"Exactly, why don't you ask Louis?" I snapped my head to the side hearing my name, sending a quizzical expression to Liam as if to say, 'what about me?' he just smirked back at me causing Harry to turn around.

"So, what's this you're asking me?" I questioned.

"Uhm, wanna hang out later?" Harry smiled.

"Sure, where?" I replied completely forgetting I'd been planning to go out with Stan and James, skip my lesson tomorrow and head out to see the girls.

"Oh, I dunno where'd you wanna go?"

"Clearly didn't think that one through Curly," I said through a giggle. "Why don't we just watch movies at the dorm?"

"Yeah sure, yours or mine?"

"Guys?" Liam cut in. We'd all completely stopped listening to Mr. Thompson by this point and I knew I'd have to go and get the notes offline.

"Yeah Li?" I responded.

"Uhm, could you maybe be in H's room and stay there? Since Z won't be there, then me and Jess can have our dorm?"

"Oh, yeah that's fine. Guess it's your dorm then Haz. But Li?"

"Yeah?"

"What about Jess' room? Didn't think she had a dorm mate?"

"She does now, hence why she's not here. They're out getting to know each other."

"Oh, well in that case. Stay off my bed!" I demanded.

"Okay, okay." Liam laughed.

Half an hour later me and Harry were heading towards the cafeteria for some food before we went back to his dorm. We still hadn't decided on a movie, both arguing wanting to watch our favourites – Grease and The Notebook.
