The confirmation email reflects back at him from the bright display. Groaning, he blinks. It’s still there. He rubs his eyes. Nope, still there. He closes the email application and reopens it. Nothing changes. It doesn’t magically disappear. Instead, it continues mocking him from the screen. Shaking his head, he begins to accept the nightmarish reality that he had actually done it. After completing the application three months ago, he submitted it last night.
Oh, fuck. What had he been thinking? He knew he shouldn’t have had that last drink. Everything is fuzzy after that. He vaguely remembers getting back to his room and turning on his laptop to watch Netflix, but that’s it. The rest is a blank.
Just as his panic begins to decline, his laptop sounds, ratcheting it up even higher than before. For the love of God, now what?
*YOU HAVE NEW MAIL*
He hovers the mouse over the new email as his stomach takes up residence in his throat. May as well get this over with. Pulling his long, curly hair back from his face with a previously discarded blue bandana that he finds on his desk, he takes a deep breath and opens the email. Here goes nothing.
Congratulations!

And of course, he’s always been too curious for his own good, so he clicks the link and quickly reads the top of the page.
Cheers on taking the first step! Let’s get started. Please complete the questionnaire below. Make sure to answer every question completely and honestly so that we can be as successful as possible in finding your perfect match.
He bites his bottom lips and hesitates, unsure about continuing. On one hand, he really doesn’t want to go alone. On the other hand, this could end in disaster, and most likely will, if he’s completely honest. The internal battle comes to an abrupt halt when Niall barges into his room. Quickly slamming the laptop shut, he stumbles out a stilted greeting. “Niall. Um. Hi. What’s up?”
“Hey, Harry! I’m headed downstairs to the common room. They’re playing The Breakfast Club tonight. Wanna go with me?” he asks, eyebrows waggling up and down. “Molly Ringwald. I’m just saying.”
Harry shakes his head and chuckles at Niall’s antics. “Yeah, sure. Let’s go.” Unfolding himself from his chair and standing with a back popping stretch, he grabs his pillow and blanket before following his friend out the door. The email beckoning him from his laptop will still be there later. It can wait just a little longer.
