Ally

I stand there frozen like a deer in head lights.

He steps down off the curb and looks over at his tour bus. He slowly looks back over to me and runs a hand through his hair. "H-"

"Harry!" The blonde yells out the door, "Come on. I'm sick of being on this stupid fucking bus." He gives me a slight frown and nods before walking to his tour bus.

He gives me one last look before he hops up the steps.

The bright lights flash on and I shield my eyes with my hand. I stare at the ground as his bus drives by. I stand there in total shock.

Louis comes back out a few moments later, "Hey. Here." He pushes a bottle of water into my hand, "You alright?" I look up at him and force a smile, "Yeah, actually." He squints, "I know you, but I'm not going to force you to talk about it. Come on, I got you some snacks for the rest of the way home."

He opens my door and closes it after I sit down. He walks around and gets in. He sits there for a moment before he looks up, "I'm sorry."

"For?" I ask sipping my water, "If you think that running into him is your fault, don't even talk. It's not. You had absolutely zero clue he'd stop here at all places."

He shrugs, "I don't know I ju-"

"Ba, ba. No more. I'm okay. We're good. Let's just get home now." I smile at him, "What snacks did you get?"

He laughs slightly and tosses me a few things, "I know how much you like your chocolate." I shake my head, "You really do know me."

"Hey watch it." I yell as I look down at my now coffee stained shirt, "Shit." I set my cup down and grab napkins. I frantically blot the light brown stain, grumbling under my breathe.

"Do you mind if I help you?"

I stop and slowly turn, "Um, are you talking to me?" The man gives me a funny look with a smile, "I am, actually, yeah." I laugh slightly and point down to my stain, "Can you help me with this?"

He nods, "That's, um.." he lets out a nervous laugh, "Oh god, you're going to think I'm stupid but uh, that's actually why I came over here.. I've been meaning to show someone this trick I learned."

I smile and shake my head, "I'm all for learning new tricks, please."

He looks around and pats his pockets, "Shoot. Do you- actually. Hang on." He walks over to the counter and grabs a napkin. He puts a little bit of hand sanitizer on it and walks back over to me.

"Okay, so now you take this, and you just.." he points, "May I?"

"Please."

He gently takes my shirt between his fingers and dabs on the clear gel. He spends a few moments wiping away the access and leans back, "Voila."

I look down, "Whoa. Hey, that actually worked."

"Did you doubt me?" He smirks at me. I smile, "I mean, you just put hand sanitizer on my coffee stained shirt, and I don't even know your name."
