Not another love story

Chapter 3

~Lia~

That night when I got back I immediately told Rachel about the whole strangeness of that night and how strange Louis was acting. she just reassured me that by the phone call I had from him earlier that he was probably drunk and didn't mean to be creepy.

But as I lay in bed, I think there's something more to what happened. I mean when he pushed me (although it may sound weird) he didn't seem at all drunk. He didn't have alchy breath and his actions weren't heavy and clumsy. I can't quite put my finger on it but it scares me. And at the same time thrills me.

I laugh at myself thinking maybe I'm just horny. Ha.

But anyways, today is a big day... well big as in the fact that it's my mum and dads wedding anniversary so I should probably get out of bed.

I shower and change into a forest green stroppy dress with different shades of darker and lighter green speckled all over it. I bought this yesterday for cheap of one of the stalls. Still nice though. I blow dry my hair and straighten it before applying my makeup.

"Rachel!!" I call "Are you ready???!" Rachel emerges from her room wearing bootleg jeans and a yellow drapey top with her hair in tight blondish ringlets even up to the roots. She's really been going for this beach look recently.

"Yaa" She says posing and pouting like a model.

"Well now I feel over dressed." I sigh. "Oh well better get over there."

"Can we get a donut for breakfast on the way." she asks pulling a cheesy grin.

"Sure." I laugh.

We get in the car and I drop Rachel off at Dunk'n Donuts waiting for her to pick up our favourites. Oh my god!!! My favourite song just came on!! I smirk and turn the radio up louder whilst shutting my eyes, miming along and dancing.

I'm just thinking that I'm glad no one can see me I think to myself but I hear a knocking on my window. I open my eyes and jump to find Louis staring at me and laughing at me. Where's Harry? I check to see where Rachel is and I see her talking to harry.

Great. She won't be leaving anytime soon then, so I roll down the window.

"How long have you been standing there?" I ask him.

"Oh not long, just about the whole time you were dancing and miming to that song." He says with a grin. Now I'm confused, why is he so nice all of a sudden?

"Oh..." I say purposely suppressing a laugh and desperately trying to pale my cheeks. I realise the music is still booming and I'm getting a few strange looks so I turn it down.

"So what ya doing here?" He leans against the rolled down window and I shuffle back a little aware that were really close. Close enough to kis- what! I can't believe I'm doing this again...

"Oh waiting for Rachel, I see she's in there with harry." I gesture by nodding. He turns round to see and laughs.

"Yeah he kinda likes her a little." He pretends to whisper but like he doesn't really care about letting me know.

"Oh really?" I raise my eyebrows and smirk before realising Louis was watching me and we both laugh.

"Yeah... kinda like how I like you..." his voice trails off. "So would you like to come to dinner with me... like a date... at my place... on Saturday?"

"Oh I'd love to!" I say with a huge grin, trying to keep myself from leaping out of the car and jumping round in a circle.

"I can keep harry away, maybe tell him to take Rachel out for a drink." he winks at me.

"So what time?" I ask my hands shaking and palms sweating.

"How about... hmm... I'll pick you up at... 7?"

"Sure okay, wait how do you know where I live?" I question confused and slightly on edge.

"Oh I don't I was going to ask you so I could pick you up. Or you could just give me your number and I'll call you?" He stutters and it's like his cool, calm, relaxed side vanished and his scary, creepy side submerged.

"Oh, but I thought you already had my number?" I say my heart pace increasing.

"Oh yeah that's right" he adds an awkward laugh.

"How did you get my number then?" Becoming more curious every word.

"Oh I... uh.. I...." But he's cut off by Rachel running over, quickly followed by harry.

"Oh, I see you guys been... talking..." Rachel states awkwardly.

"Yeah..." I reply equally as awkward.

"Thanks for the number Rach!" Harry says waving a little Dunk'n Donuts napkin in the air.

I'm happy for her... I really am... it's just that there's something creepy about these guys...

"Guess I'll see you round then!!" Louis says before quickly escorting Harry away.

Yeah I bet you wanna get away. You never even answered my question. What a tosser.

"bye!!" I smile and wave... smile and wave smile and wave... (Madagascar reference.)
