louis just so happened to be working at the same bookshop as his sister. she was actually the manager.

if harry immediately packed outfits for a week and made a reservation for dinner tomorrow, louis didn't need to know.

_____

harry arrived in doncaster at 11:58am.

he went straight to louis' job, not wanting to wait. and if louis didn't want to talk to him anymore, he would truly be disappointed.

////

louis walked from the back of the bookshop and towards the front as he heard someone come in. he didn't know why he came to work today. he wanted to just sleep in. he stood behind the counter, not realizing he was drifting off as he stared down at his hands.

"it's rude to ignore your customers."

louis literally fell backwards as he heard the voice.

maybe he embarrassed himself but he didn't care because he was here. "oops." he blushed and he saw harry come behind the counter, not caring if he wasn't allowed because louis was in front of him on the floor. harry reached his hand out towards louis and he took it, standing up. their chests were pressed together and their faces were extremely close.

"hi." harry breathed and louis blushed, not being able to believe it.

louis smiled shyly and wrapped his arms tightly around harry's neck. harry wrapped his arms around his waist and he felt secure and complete.

"i wanted to surprise you." harry murmured and and pulled away a little, grinning.

louis' eyes widened and he reached one of his fingers up to poke one of harry's dimples. he smiled more because yeah, this moment was absolutely perfect.
