The Bet

Part 6

•Louis' POV•
Yesterday with Harry was great, I had so much fun, and his mum is amazing, I really like Harry, and I'm worried Zayn will find out, it isn't like I went against the bet, I was supposed to make Harry fall in love with me. Instead I'm the one who fell in love, the only thing I can think of to do is pretend that the bet is working. I got out of bed and went off to school, I was nervous cause I knew Zayn would ask questions and I didn't have any answers for him. He wants me to bully Harry, but I just can't bring myself to do it, so I did the best thing I could think of, ditch school, I couldn't handle seeing Zayn today, it was too risky, all I have to do is ride it out until the end of the week. At about 4:00 in the afternoon I called Harry, since school was out, when we talked he invited me over to dinner, which I was thrilled about, I got ready to go until I heard a car door, I looked outside my bedroom window and it was Zayn,
"Louis? are you in there? you didn't show up for school!" he yelled from the front door, I was too scared to answer, so I snuck out my window and ran to Harry's, I was hoping Zayn didn't see me, boy was I wrong, he pulled up beside me where I was running and stopped the car.
"Louis?! what are you doing?"
"I'm going for a run"
"Why didn't you come to school today?"
"I didn't feel like it"
"Are you sick?"
"No Zayn, I just didn't feel like coming to school"
"This is the second time this week you've missed school, you're going to fail"
"Zayn I know this! just get off my back will you?"
"What has gotten into you lately Louis?"
"Nothing!"
"How's the bet going with Harry? has he fell in love yet?, what a dork" he laughed
"Stop calling him names!"
It just blurted out of me, I was standing there screaming at Zayn, protecting Harry, I don't know if I just made this situation worse or not. But at this point, I didn't care, all I cared about was Harry
"Louis why are you protecting him?"
"I'm not! but in order for this bet to seem believable, we need to stop bullying him"
"Good call, where are you off to I'll give you a ride"
"Harry's"
"Sweet, hop in"
I got in his car, I didn't want to but that's the only thing I could think of to get rid of him, I'm just hoping that when we get there he doesn't try to do anything stupid.
"Alright, thanks Zayn I'll see you later"
Thankfully after he dropped me off he left, I straightened up my clothes and hair and went to knock on the door, there he was, me just looking at him made me go crazy, my heart was pounding so hard I thought it was going to explode.
"Hey Louis" Harry said with his deep voice, it sounded like he just woke up
"Hi Harry, did you just wake up?"
"Yeah I took a nap when I got home, why wasn't you in school?"
"Oh no reason, can I come in?"
"Yes of course"
We walked in his house, I saw his mum in the kitchen, when she saw me she squealed and ran up to me
"Louis! hi!" she said hugging me, I hugged her back, she gave the warmest hugs
"I'm making dinner! will you be joining us?"
"Ah yes of course, you know I could never turn down your cooking!"
"Excellent! I'll call you both down whenever it's ready!"
Harry lead me up to his room, his hair was messy and he was wearing a baggy grey hoodie with pink pajama pants with little red hearts on them, he looked so cute.
"I like your pants" I said to him laughing
"Shut up! they're comfortable!" he said throwing a pillow at me
"I missed you Harry"
"I missed you too Louis"
we talked about the project and a couple of other things, his voice was heavenly, I could listen to him for hours.
"Boys! dinner is ready!" his mum called down from the kitchen, we got up and went downstairs to eat.
"So, how's the project going you two" his mum asked, cutting up her steak she made
"It's going good, your son is very smart" I said to her, smiling softly at Harry.
"He is! thank you for saying that, maybe he'll listen to you, he never listens when I give him compliments" she laughed
"mum!" Harry said in the cutest way
"So mum, I was wondering, can Louis spend the night?"
"I don't see why not! he can sleep in Gemma's room"
"Thank you Mrs. Twist, it means a lot"
I said to her, finishing my plate. After we ate dinner I helped washing up, me and Harry went upstairs to his room to talk and spend a little bit more time together before bed.
"Is it alright if I take a shower?" I asked Harry
"Yes of course, you can use mine"
"Thanks" I got up and looked through his clothes, after I got my clothes I went to take a shower, as I was washing my hair I heard a knock on the bathroom door.
"Louis?" Harry said
"Yeah?"
"Can I come in?"
"Yeah sure come on in"
I poked my head out from around the curtain and saw him standing there, wearing absolutely nothing, my jaw dropped.
"Need some company?"
He said smiling at me
"Sure"
When he got in there we shared a kiss, which turned into making out, that went on for an hour.
"Best shower of my life" I said as we both got out to dry off
"Same" he said winking at me
"I guess we should get to bed before my mum comes up here and strangles us" he laughed
"Okay, yeah"
"Goodnight Louis"
"Goodnight Harry" before I left to go to sleep I kissed him on his forehead, "Sleep well angel" I said to him before leaving his room, I got to his sisters room and couldn't wait to sleep. I was so happy, but terrified at the same time, I'm worried Zayn's going to find out and that would ruin everything, I just hope Harry don't find out anything, I actually like Harry, I really don't want to loose him.
