Only Time Will Tell

Chapter 8

*Harry's Point Of View:

We all left Vicki's house and went to the hotel. Last night was so fun. I'm glad she let me cuddle with her; she's so amazing. I have to ask Louis, and soon! 

Louis and I arrived at our room, and I was going to ask him, but I needed to shower first, so I said, "I call the shower!"

"Fine, but I'm obviously next," Louis called out.

"Kay, but I need to talk to you when you're done," I told him. Truth be told though, I am terrified that Louis wouldn't be okay with it.

When I got out of the shower, I let Louis get in, and then I headed to the kitchen for a snack. Louis got out of the shower as I was pouring myself a glass of apple juice and I asked Louis, "You want some?"

"Sure," Louis replied. Then he asked, "So what'd you want to talk about?"

I handed him the glass and asked, "So what'd you think of Vicki?" 

"She was nice, I guess..."

"Lou, you don't have to lie. I know you like her."

"What are you talking about?" 

"Louis, I saw you two.. in the kitchen..."

"Oh... Well, yeah, I mean I like her... but Eleanor... and Vicki doesn't want to break us up— and I don't know... I'm so confused..."

"Well, Louis, since for right now you have Eleanor, would you mind if I went on a date with Vicki?"

"No, I wouldn't feel comfortable with that, Harry. It's just—"

"But Louis! I really like her! I haven't felt like this with a girl in a long time."

"Harry, I really like her too, and it'd make me uncomfortable seeing you two together."

"But Louis!"

"No!"

"Fine! Whatever!"

I can't believe how selfish he's being! I really like her, and he has Eleanor! It's bulllshit! I'm just going to tell her he said yes, anyway. 

So I texted her, 'Heeey, babe. Louis said it was alright. Starbucks at seven? Can't wait. xx'

She replied, 'Yay! I can't wait either! See you at seven. (; xx'

Yay! This date is going to be great! I can't wait to see her! She'll probably look amazing. 

*Louis' Point Of View: 

I can't believe he asked me that. I obviously liked her, if I was willing to break up with Eleanor for her. I mean, I love Eleanor but there's something attracting me to Vicki that I just can't ignore. I had to tell him no. I mean, if he saw what happened, he obviously saw how heartbroken I was when she rejected me. I mean, I really like her, and if they were together, would just be plain old terrible.
