Something loud wakes Louis up from his nap. He sits up and snuffles, trying to figure out what had woken him.
"I apologize Mr. Tomlinson, was i interrupting you?" Mr. Cowell sneers. The class around Louis breaks out into laughter, even Liam who is sitting right beside him is laughing.
Louis gives his friend a quick smack on the arm, muttering about him being a traitor - Liam continues to laugh - before apologizing to Mr. Cowell.
"Do not let it happen again Mr. Tomlinson, or else your grades will reflect your behaviour." He states with an air of superiority. It takes everything in Louis not to roll his eyes at the man.
Despite his teachers efforts, the boy doesn't pay attention for the rest of class, he can't take another nap - sadly - so he decides to pick at his nails - which his father does NOT approve of - and hope Mr. Cowell doesn't notice.
DING DING
At the sound of the bell, Liam jumps from his seat, grabbing Louis by his arm and practically running from the classroom. Louis rolls his eyes fondly at his friend's antics. Liam has always hated class, so he never wastes any time leaving when he is aloud to go.
"Li, where are you taking me." Louis asks with faux exasperation. The puppy eyed boy just smirks at him and quickens his pace. Louis is starting to get annoyed at this point, already knowing what his friend is planning.
Ever since Louis came out to him, Liam has been trying to set Louis up with any male in a 100 meter radius. It's not that Louis is ungrateful for his friends acceptance and enthusiasm over his interest in the opposite gender, Louis is so glad that Liam still sees Louis as Louis.... But that doesn't mean he needs Liam to be his wing man, it's embarrassing.
Louis sighs, "Li, you know i love you, but i need you to stop. I'm not looking for a relationship right now." He reluctantly tells the other boy. The light in Liam's eyes fades slightly before lighting up brighter than before.
"You have a boyfriend?!" The boy practically yells. Louis gives him a quick smack on the arm and places one finger on his mouth, signalling that Liam should be quiet as to not spread rumors.
Liam takes this as confirmation. He gives a little squeal, crushing the shorter boy in a hug. Louis squeaks and attempts to throw the human puppy off him. Liam just squeeze's him harder. 'This is how I'm going to die' Louis thinks to himself as his vision goes blurry.
Before he can surrender to the sweet, sweet darkness, Liam frees him from his torture. "I'm so happy for you Lou!" Louis rolls his eyes and starts walking towards the library.
"I'll see you later Li, I've got homework." He states with faux anger. Liam just waves to him.
"Bye Lou, you'll have to introduce me to your boyfriend."
"I DON'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND." Liam laughs at him and walks towards the cafeteria. Louis is left in the middle of the hallway with people looking at him like he's crazy. He huffs and continues towards the library.
Honestly, who does Liam think he is? Louis doesn't need a man to be happy, he has himself and his friends, that's enough.
Louis puts his earphones in to show people he does not want to talk. He isn't upset, he just feels drained and doesn't want to interact with anyone. Clearly the universe wants to see Louis suffer, because not two seconds later, someone pulls out his earphones.
He turns around, ready to devour the soul of whoever has dared to disturb his peace. Green eyes and dimples stare back at him. Louis sighs.
"Not now Harry, I'm busy." Louis pleads and continues walking. Harry has been the bane of his existence for the last 6 months. Constantly coming up just to irritate him.
