Just a Baker

Chapter 6

Harry couldn't sleep that night. The only thing running through his mind was Louis. Harry woke up early, took a cold shower, and drove over to the bakery unlocking the door at 6.

He made himself a cup of tea and opened his notebook, standing over it trying to come up with lyrics. When the bell for the door rung Harry's head snapped up fast and in doing so, he spilled his tea on his notebook. "Shit," he said, hurrying to get a towel and blot his notebook.

Louis walked over to the counter, "What happened?" he asked. "I spilled my tea," Harry said sighing, "That's okay. I didn't like that song anyway," he continued. Louis leaned over trying to read what was written on the page. "Boo!" Harry yelled with playful annoyance, moving the book so it was out of the way. Harry put it back on top of the cabinets. "Ugh!" Louis yelled annoyed.

Harry became sad and walked over to Louis. The older boy was shocked when Harry took his hands and intertwined them with his own. Louis felt his cheeks turn pink, but Harry didn't notice because he was looking at the ground. "I'm sorry Boo," Harry said, "I didn't mean to make you mad."

Louis smiled softly and let go one of Harry's hands to lift Harry's chin with his finger. "It's okay Haz. I respect your privacy," Louis says. Harry smiled and Louis felt the butterflies come back when he saw Harry's dimples. Harry pulled him into a hug and Louis will admit he didn't want to leave. He wrapped his hands around Harry's neck to play with the little curls at the back of his head. They both smiled into the hug before pulling away to open up the bakery.

They spent the day filming scenes. Harry said a few lines, but not much. He mostly walked around handing out baked goods to fake customers. When he wasn't needed, Harry sat on the side and watched Louis act. The movie was about a barista who falls in love with one of the regular customers.

For some reason, this doesn't register with Harry until he has to watch Louis flirt with the actor, sit on his lap, and feed the actor. For some reason, this pisses Harry off and he leaves the room with a scowl. He goes to the back bathroom and locks the door. He sits there on the closed toilet seat holding his face in his hands. He doesn't know why it bothers him so much. It's not like they're dating, he hasn't even known Louis for more than a week.

He sighs when he hears someone knock and opens the door only to see it's Louis. Harry smiles until he sees Louis is holding himself staring at the ground. "What's wrong Boo?" Harry says pulling Louis into him. Louis wraps his arms around Harry's waist and quietly asks, "Are you mad?" "About what, Boo?" Harry asks softly. "I don't know. You just walked away and I thought I did something wrong!" Louis whined. "No," Harry chuckled lifting Louis' chin to look at his beautiful blue eyes, "You didn't do anything wrong I just had to wee," Harry lied. He knows, but he just didn't know how to tell Louis that he couldn't bear to see Louis with someone else, even if it was fake.

Harry leaned in and gently kissed Louis' forehead, making Louis smile. "Come on, we have to go back," Harry said pulling Louis by his hand to the front of the shop. Louis reluctantly followed not wanting to leave Harry's embrace.

When they got back, Nick said he wanted Harry to teach Louis how to put a foam heart in a cup of coffee for the next scene. The two boys walked over to the counter and Louis started practicing. After about five minutes Harry walked over and placed his hands on Louis' shoulders to look over and see how he was doing. To put it plainly, it looked horrible.

Harry tried his hardest not to laugh, but accidentally let out a snort instead. "Hey!" Louis whined, "It's not that bad!"

"Here I'll show you," Harry said. He instructed Louis to make a new cup of coffee and when he had Harry stood behind him and slid his hands down Louis' arms to place his hand on top of Louis'. Harry felt Louis tense so he leaned in and whispered for him to relax. Louis relaxed a little bit, glad harry couldn't see his pink cheeks. Harry moved their hands together creating a perfect heart on top of the coffee.

Louis smiled really big and jumped up and down after putting the cup down. Louis turned around and wrapped his arms around Harry's neck playing with the hair at the back. Harry moved his arms around Louis' waist and the two stood there smiling like idiots for a few minutes before Nick snapped them out of their trance.

"Break it up lovebirds! Louis it's time for your scene!" Nick yelled. The two pulled apart, both of their faces a deep red and Louis walked off, one thing on both of their minds. 'Lovebirds'
