Liam hates Harry right now. Stupid Harry and his stupid boyfriend. Harry's boyfriend, Louis, was the lead in the school play. Harry of course had to go and see, dragging Liam along with him. It wasn't so much that Liam didn't want to be there, it was more the fact that Harry was going crazy, flashing a sign and cheering Louis' name. This isn't a football game; it's a play for heaven's sake. Harry needs to stop being so strange, he's just making himself look stupid. Not like it matters anyway, the whole school loves the love between Harry (junior) and Louis (senior). Liam hates the school population.
Finally the lights are dimming and an announcement is made that the crowd settle into in their seats. Harry finally calms down and Liam is grateful for that.
The lights are finally off, spotlights on center stage. And so the play begins... Louis comes on stage, reciting his lines word for word. The play goes on and Liam finds himself enjoying it more than he thought. He laughs and smiles at the whacky characters. The play is a spin-off of High School Musical. Instead of a basketball team they had the ever so popular bowling team. Ratherthan an academic decathlon they had the surgery decathlon. Liam didn't realize school plays could actually be good.
As enjoyable as it maybe, he's getting exasperated. He kind of just wants to go now, having his fill of laughter for the day. It's almost time for the intermission and Liam is shaking his leg as he waits those last five minutes. Five minutes, it's in those last five minutes that Liam goes from impatient and distracted to alert and focused. Now on stage is a boy, a gorgeous boy. He's like a model, hair styled up, beautiful smile on his face. He's captivated and he's only said like five words. The five minutes are soon over and it's intermission. Liam doesn't leave his seat.

After the play, Harry makes his way to the front of the stage, waiting to congratulate Louis. Liam follows, wondering if he'll chance a look at the handsome lad. Louis comes running out, jumping into Harrys awaiting arms. The couple exchange kisses and Liam looks away to let them have their moment.
"I guess we're going to stand here awkwardly while they kiss." A voice says from behind Liam. Liam turns to see the handsome lad from the play standing there. He looks even more attractive up close. "I'm Zayn, Louis' theater buddy." Liam continues to stare intently, until he realizes how weird he's being. He needs to answer before he makes himself look even more stupid.
"I'm Liam."
"Well Liam it was nice meeting you, but I must be off." He waves goodbye and disappears leaving Liam shell shocked and sad.
"I see you met Zayn." Louis smirks; enjoying his friend's stunned face. "He's going to be the lead in next semester's school play." Guess whose joining theater :)
