Harry's POV
It's Halloween today and we STILL have to go to detention. Can you believe that shit?? I mean I guess it makes sense since it is a school day but still.
I tap my foot impatiently, waiting for Louis to show up. He should be here any minute now. I can't believe I've gotten to the point where I actually want to see Louis everyday, like I look forward to having detention with him. What can I say, that boy's special and he certainly has a hold on me.
My head snaps up when I hear the door rattling and I stare at it only to find Louis walking in with his full blown costume already on, well almost. He's still wearing our school uniforms just with a few black makeup marks here and there, but his face is painted all white with a black star over one of his eyes. He looks hot. Wait- what??
I immediately burst out laughing when Louis looks at me because one, I'm nervous by my own thoughts and two, I just couldn't help myself.
"You look insane," I laugh out but I'm really thinking he looks insanely hot. I have no fucking clue what's gotten into me.
Louis smiles as he walks over to the seat next to mine, "Thanks. What are you going as? Boring?"
I immediately stop laughing, "Hey!" I whine looking down at my plain school attire.
Louis chuckles at my reaction and places the back of his hand in front of his mouth as an attempt to stifle his laugh. In reality, it just makes me stare at his small hand with the long green acrylics. I look down at my own baby blue nails, only slightly chipped, with a soft smile.
Louis' sweet and supportive and encouraging and I absolutely adore that about him. He's unabashedly himself without caring what others think about him. I could learn a lot from Louis if I'm being honest, I mean he's already helped me improve my self esteem with something as little as nail polish.
"So, um, what are your plans for tonight?" I ask after clearing my throat.
Louis looks at me with a smile and even though he looks insane - insanely hot - I can still feel my heart skip a beat. Ugh not this again.
"My friend Stan is throwing a party and I'm going with Zayn," he states.
"Oh," I say, slightly surprised.
Louis doesn't seem like a party type to me. He seems like a 'stay at home and watch scary movies' type. I wish he was that type. I mean what if something happens to him at this party?? What if someone tries something on him, or worse, what if he tries something on them?!!
Louis seems confused by my response but he continues the conversation, "What are your plans?"
"Uh, nothing," I say but it sounds more like a question, "I know Liam's picking me up after detention but after that I'm not sure."
"Oh, well um, do you want to go to Stan's party?" he asks.
"What?" I snap my head over to Louis who almost seems nervous.
"Do you wanna go to the party? I mean it's open invite as long as you have a costume and it'll be fun. They'll be tons of people there just having a good time," Louis repeats with more elaboration, "Plus, um, I kind of want you there," he admits shyly.
I stare at him with wide eyes, an open mouth, and blushed cheeks. He wants me there?? I can't even fathom why that makes me so happy.
"Yes," I agree instantly but then immediately retract, "I mean, maybe. I have to see with Liam, I'm sorry."
"It's okay," Louis gives me a small smile, "Just let me know."
"I will," I reply instantly, crossing my fingers that Liam wants to go to this damn party.
