Seven

My last name started with a T so that meant that this graduation ceremony just got a whole lot longer. The audience just sat and occasionally cheered for someone they knew when they walked on stage to get their diploma they so rightfully deserved.

The graduation prep was just putting on your cap and gown, for boys at least. For the girls they had to do their hair and makeup and practice walking in their ridiculous eleven inch heels. When the announcer finally called my name, I stood up and graced that stage with the most beautiful presence ever.

I literally frolicked onto the stage and shook hands with our principal and other guest speakers. After I heard my obnoxious family cheer for me, I sat back in the seat. For about another thirty minutes this same process went on and it was finally time for the Valedictorian to speak. Her name was Kaitlyn Farmer, I think. She was nice and kind of your average, nerdy-looking girl.

As soon as we threw our caps in the air I felt this undying freedom in my heart to pack my bags to London as soon as I could. At this point I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life but I was still only 17, seeing as my birthday was in December. I hadn't graduated early but I remember in primary school mum tried to enroll me and they put me with a class one year above me instead.

"Louis!" Mum shouted.

We went outside of the arena and everyone took pictures. I made Dan and mum take pictures of Niall, Liam, and I and I looked for Harry on the way, too. Whilst in the middle of me speaking to mum, someone put their hands over my eyes and I knew it was him. I turned around and stared at him for a minute. His hair was sort of pushed to the side and honestly he never looked better.

"Sorry, I came straight from a shoot, are these your parents?" He asked.

"Yes, this is step dad number two, Dan and my only mum, Jay," I introduced.

Harry, Jay, and Dan hit it off pretty well. Little did they know that I liked this sixteen year old boy.

In the midst of the chaos, in the distance I spotted this tall figure that walked with such an elegant stride it was almost God-like. "Who is that?" I whispered to Niall.

"Holy shit," he gasped. "That's Zayn freaking Malik."

Well damn. This boy looked better in real life, if that was even possible.

"Liam," Zayn called and Liam ran up to Zayn so fast. They hugged and it was like you could see their happiness radiating off of each other.

"Hey Zayn," Harry said as Zayn made his way over to us.

"Hey mate, is this the famous Louis Tomlinson that I keep hearing these two talking about?"

"I am indeed. Hi Zayn, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"The pleasure is definitely all mine."

If I was a girl, there would be no doubt in my mind that I would be a Zayn girl.

Harry was adorable when he met Lottie, Fizzy, Daisy, Phoebe, Ernest, and Doris. He talked to all of them so kindly and he even bent down to their level. I am so fond of this boy.

Mum informed me that they had to leave and I really didn't want to leave so I gave Dan the keys to my car and told them I would catch a ride with someone.

"How long are you here for?" I asked Harry.

"Maybe another hour? Tomorrow I have another photoshoot and it sucks. I wish I could spend more time with your family, I like them."

"They seem very fond of you, Harold."

"I'm guessing they don't know you're gay."

"They also don't know that I met you on the internet and drove three hours, by myself to see you. They also don't know you have been at the house and they think Niall introduced us and we drove three hours to see you but then Niall ended up having to leave."

"You have told a lot of lies this week, Lou," he laughed.

"I have but they were all worth it," I smiled and grabbed his hand. "Can you take me home?"

"Anything for you."

We drove home in Harry's nice ass Range Rover; which made my Mini Cooper look like a piece of shit.

"Thank you for driving me home, Harry. I hope you have fun at your photoshoot tomorrow."

"Thank you, Louis. We need to hang out this summer! Do you know when you are moving to London?"

"I don't yet, when are you moving?"

"In a few weeks. Young sixteen year old me all by myself."

"You're living by yourself?" I gasped.

"Yes, in a studio flat, it's nice."

"Well at least that's good," I laughed.

He turned to me and I felt my cheeks go red. We sort of gazed into each other's eyes and he leaned in and I leaned in and it happened. We kissed in his Range Rover parked next to the curb of my (soon to be old) house. It was the perfect way to end this day.

"I enjoyed that," Harry said.

"I did too."

"Who are you going to be living with in London?"

"Niall, Zayn, and Liam."

"That sounds fun, I will be visiting a lot, yeah?"

"Yes."

With that I kissed Harry and walked calmly to my doorstep before getting inside and internally screaming like a child. That actually happened. That was real life. He initiated our first kiss and everything. Mum and Dan looked at me like I was a lunatic but it didn't matter, because Harry and I kissed.

I went upstairs to my room and posted a picture of Harry and I on Instagram captioned, 'Graduated :).' Possibly one of the most proud moments I had ever had.

"Louis," Lottie walked into my room.

"Yes?" I replied.

"Do you like Harry?"

"I'm quite fond of him," I shrugged. I could tell she knew I was lying.

"Yeah but there is this boy at my school," she started. I patted the spot next to me on the bed and she climbed on. "He talks about this one boy just like you do Harry. He's gay."

"I am in fact straight, Lottie." Lies.

"Okay?" She didn't seem convinced.

"You know how Dan and mum are with the whole same-sex relationships and marriage, their views are my views."

"Okay well I don't believe you, but I will take your word on it."

"Believe me or not, it's the truth." No it wasn't.

Lottie left my room and I shut my door. If only she knew what really went on in my mind. I also wanted to know more about the gay boy at her school. She was only in eighth grade, then again I knew way before then too. I scrolled on Tumblr and saw some of Harry's pictures from modeling, he looked like such an angel; it was unreal.

It was also unreal to me that Zayn, Liam, Niall, and I would all be sharing one house. Niall really needed to get a girlfriend because Liam had Zayn and I had Harry. He was also rooming with his two gay best friends, maybe we rubbed off on him.

= you can't get away from the gay - Niall Horan (in Internet) 2015 lmao hope y'all are enjoying this!!! =
