harry POV-

it was the next day, im wearing my name tag, and making my way to the hall with niall by my side. Feeling nervous as hell, but putting in my poker face and being brave for niall. As we get to the hall there was a whole heap of kids and tables with food and drinks then the bell for first period rings we all face the stage a to see the principal and a few office ladys behind him "good morning boys and girls! I hope you all rememberd your name tags and paper with your buddies names on them!" i look down at my paper 'louis tomlinson' is the name i got, it has a nice sound to it dont you think? "well dont let me keep you up, find your buddies and socialise! If you forgot your name tag or paper, please make your way towards the front!" then there was a bit of akward shuffling, then there was a bit of movement. I look at niall who looked like he was gonna shit himself. "are you okay mate?" i ask "yeah, just a tad nervous is all!" he replys "just relax yeah!" i command, looking at niall smiling and seeing the colour come back to his face. Just then a tall boy approches us. He has light brown hair and dark brown eyes. He stops infront of niall, "Niall horan?" he asks looking at niall with a friendly smile "ye-yes" niall replys with a shakey voice. "hey, im harry!" i exclaimed to try and save nialls ass so he can have a few seconds to catch his breath. "Hello, im liam" he then leans in ti whisper in my ear "is your friend okay?" he whispers "yeah, just a bit nervous, once he calms down he'll be fine i promise!" i reply. When liam backs away he is smiling, he glances at niall and looks down at his feet nervously. 'Well this is awkward, wait ago niall!' i say in my head.

louis's POV-

i watch liam walk away, now its just me and zayn standing here. "Oh i see him, i see him!" zayn chants excitedly. "sorry lou, your on your own now!" zayn stated then runs towords a boy who assume is his buddy. I look back over at liam, who looks like he is talking into harrys ear. I cant help but feel jelous at how close they are. So i decide to goin them. As i make my way over im starting to feel butterflies! i reach the three and they're all just standing there really awkwardly. "uhh hey" i say shyly. Liam is the first to look at me "oh hey lou, whats up?" then the blonde one and harry look up at me at the same time. "Nothing just looking for my buddie, thought i'd come see how you were doing!" i reply letting my butterflies fade away. I look at harry who seems to look really nervous. "omg, your louis tomlinson!" i look over to the blond one who looks at me with a grin "yes, why?" i ask curiously. "well i found your buddie" he says looking at harry. I look at harry's name tag and it read 'harry styles' and i look down at my paper it also reads 'harry styles'! I have to do a double take at the boys name tag. Am i dreaming?! is this really real? i think to myself. "uhh hi" harry shyly greats. "hey there" i reply smiling at the younger boy. He lifts his head and looks me in the eyes, he smiles so beautifully. And he has dimples! How could there be someone so perfect. Then his smile fades and he looks scared, i look behind me and there is zayn, and what im guessing is his buddy walking towads us. Zayn stops next to me and i gance at harry who looks like he is trying to hide his face. what is going on here?

harrys POV-

omg yes! i got boo bear!, or should i say 'louis tomlinson'! i cant help but smiling. wait oh shit, its the one winked at me yesterday. Ah crap, he's walking this way. He stops next to louis "hey guys whats up?" he speakes. louis gives him a 'what the fuck' kind of angry face. That even leaves me confussed! "what?!" zayn askes defencively. Louis just grabs zayns arm and drags him away, leaving me, niall, liam and josh (zayns buddie) speachless.

louis POV-

I drag zayn away, not wanting the thers to hear our conversation. "what did you do with harry?!" i orded. "what are you talking bout?!" he asks looking for the answer himself. "as you were walking over, harry got all weird, and awkward, like he was nervous to see you or something?!" i ask accusingly "oh..ha.ha, well um, after assembly, when we were walking out, i kinda winked at him." he said his face cringes as if expecting a hit, and just for that, a lightly punch his arm. "What the hell man?! You've probably scared him away already!" I almost scream, remembering that we're in the hall with all year seven and nine. "Even before I had the chance to get to know him..." I mumble under my breath, but obviously Zayn herd it, "well he's your buddy right? That gives you a full term to get to know him, I don't know what your worrying about!" He says back cooly. "I know i know okay! He just makes me nervous! " I admit shyly, "naww" Zayn smirks "well you obviously make him feel the same way!" He reply's, nodding his head, gesturing for me to look behind me. So I turn around and see Harry staring, but as soon as he realised I was looking back at him his head immediately snapped around and his face turning slightly pink. Which just makes me blush knowing I've caused that. Zayn rolls him eyes seeing everything that just accrued, "my god, hurry up and get married already!" My head snaps up almost as fast as Harry's did, I give Zayn a death stare, and he just wink and walks back to the other boys.

I follow behind, and stand next to Zayn. Liam is talking with the blond one, and Harry is talking to Zayns buddy. "How rude of me" Zayn protests, "everyone,I'm Zayn, this is my buddy, josh, he plays drums.... and your buddies are?" He looks towards Liam and I. "I'm Liam, and my buddy is Niall, he's Irish!" Liam says proudly as if Niall was his son that he was boasting about.. So that's the blond ones name, Niall. Well it suits him... Shit, why are they all staring at me?! Oh right, we are introducing our buddy's, wait ago Zayn, idiot. "Uhh, I'm louis, and my buddy is Harry..." I glance at Harry who seems entranced in my words, I can't help but smile. "He uhh..." Looking for words, I realise we haven't even talked yet.... I look over to Zayn for help.. As he was about to open his mouth to speak, "okay children, now that you've had some bonding time, year 7's go to class, year 9's follow them where ever they go and be there buddy! You don't have to at lunch, as long as you meet up before class." Said the office lady. I look Harry, and walk over to him, for the first time ever, not feeling nervous around him. "So, what do we have?" I ask smiling down at him, yes I'm taller. "Uhh, art" he said not even having to look at his timetable. "Alright then, after you" I say, making the younger boy smile. I think I'm going to like this whole buddy thing after all....

harrys POV-

as we walk to art class, i cant help but stare up at this amazing guy that im going to be spending the next term with. He looks down at me and smiles, my head instinctively snaps away from his view,' damn, this is becoming a habit now!' I think to myself. "So harry, what are you into?" Someone interrupts my thoughts, and it was louis. "Uhh, I don't know really, a bit of everything, I really like music?!" I reply back, why would you say that questioningly? Harry you idiot, I say in my head. "Cool!, I like music too, and sports, and drama! But that's expected for a year nine kid!" He replys, making me smile. 'Oh god harry, stop being such a girl, and do something about this obvious crush you have!' Is all I can hear replaying to me in my head, from when Niall an I were talking this morning. Maybe I should? But Niall doesn't know that Louis, my new buddy, was the guy I thought I might like... So, what to do..

We arrive to class, I take my usual seat, Louis by my side, and I have to say, it felt... right! "Okay kids, since we only have a short lesson, we're going to to portraits of our buddy! Good luck and have fun!" The teacher spoke from behind her desk. I turn to face Louis and think about what Niall said. "Well I suck at drawing but let's give this a go, yeah?" I ask timidly, "haha, sure. And don't worry to much, I can't draw for shit!" Louis replied giving me a wink. What is it with these boys and winking i think to myself, now feeling a bit nervous...  

As the period goes along, I'm liking Louis more and more! He actually is the nice funny guy I expected him to be! And I'm really loving this buddy program! Especially if it means a whole term with Louis!

who know's, maybe i love him...  (larry stylinson)Where stories live. Discover now
