Once harry had gotten the text from louis he ran downstairs to tell his mom what was happening. This was big for him. Not only was it one of his only friends, but he had the slightest crush on the older man and really wanted to act upon it.
"mom. mom! mom guess what" harry spoke, waking anne from her mid-evening nap.
She jumped off the couch, waving her arms around like a lunatic.
"what! is everything alright? why're you screaming?!" she screamed back. meanwhile, harry was quite literally rolling on the floor laughing.
"everything's - alright mom - I'm leaving to night to meet louis at the train station - in doncaster" he said in between laughs and hiccups.
anne gave him a disapproving look before giving in and allowing a grin to wash over her face.
"my baby boy! you're growing up. get lots of pictures will you?" anne spoke with tears in her eyes. harry had been speaking of louis for three months now and anne just couldn't believe they were finally meeting.
"course mum. i love you but I've got to pack now. if I don't see you on the way out I'll be back before your business trip. don't know how long I'm staying but I want to say goodbye before you leave" harry said with a content smile on his face.
anne nodded before shooing harry upstairs to get his things packed. harry packed loads of things. too many pairs of pants (only his cutest ones for louis, of course), six pairs of trousers, twelve shirts, three pajama sets, a few nice outfits (just in case), his toothbrush and favorite toothpaste, his laptop and its charger, his phone charger, and his gigantic headphones that were probably bigger than his head.
By the time harry was finished packing, it was 8:00. as harry did the math he realized he had 30 minutes to get to the train station that was twenty minutes away, and that was by car.
"shit shit shit mum can you drive me to the train station? I have thirty minutes I won't get there if I walk" harry begged.
Anne nodded and watched as harry rushed to get his stuff to the car. she really hoped that harry and this louis lad work out, harry seems to be smitten by him and they're just now meeting.
harry motioned for his mum to cmon and she rushed out the door to drive her 20 year old son to the train station to meet his 22 year old friend in which he has a crush on. wow, her life is definitely not boring.
the ride to the train station was long and tense due to harry's anticipation. who could blame him though? wouldn't you be excited to meet your best friend?
once harry arrived at the train station, he said goodbye to his mum, paid, and sat down with his very large suitcase. he pulled out his phone and decided to text louis.
hey babe. I'm on the train. See you in a few hours.
He decided to send it, hoping the babe part wasn't too much.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in doncaster, louis was a wreck, he honestly was. he had been cleaning his flat ever since he told harry to meet him. You'd think that seeing as louis lives on his own, he would have the mess under control, right? well that was not the case.
louis jumped as his phone buzzed with a text from harry. he smiled at the screen and typed out a reply.
okay love. been tidying up the place since I told you to come. can't wait to see you. xx :)
Okay louis, this is the day you've been waiting for for three months, don't screw it up. he told himself.
he looked over his entire apartment before coming to the conclusion that it was clean enough. now he just had to wait
hey lovelies! I hope this chapter was alright, I'm probably going to be updating again within the next 24 hours! :)))))) love you all
