        “Mr.?”

          Louis sighed and lifted his head to face his class. “Darren?”

          “I have a question.”

          “Does it pertain to your work?”

          “Uh no, not really.”

          “Then no.” Louis turned back to grading his papers. Darren laughed, “Mr. Come on!”

          The teacher sighed and dropped his pen. “Yes Darren. Please ask your question.”

          Darren smiled, “why do- wait. I have two questions.” Louis shook his head in annoyance. He had a massive headache and just hoped this day would pass by faster. “Just ask Darren.” “Okay, well my first question is, why do water lilies only grow in mud?” Louis folded his hands tightly, “seriously? Where did that even come from?” The student shrugged, “I don’t know.” “Darren.” Louis chuckled, “my little, little Darren. You are reading a poem about Why the Caged Bird Sings. Now, I’ve read it plenty, it does not talk about water lilies…at all.” The class laughed and Erika raised her hand, “Mr. Tomlinson I have a question.” “I’m not done asking mine!” Darren shouted. Louis huffed; he should have become a kindergarten teacher.

          “My other question,” Darren glared at the girl next to him, “was how much is a forearm tattoo?”

          Louis gaped at the boy, “Oh my goodness, I don’t know! Do you see any on me?”

          “No but Harry ha-“ Darren’s voice went to a whisper as Louis’ eyes grew. “I mean, that friend of-your friend has…one- a couple… he would know…right?” Louis breathed out a sigh of relief. “Um… I’ll ask when I get the chance.”

          “Okay, my turn! Why are murders so smart?” Louis laughed in astonishment. “Wha-I don’t get you people! We are reading a poem that has nothing to do with that! Why are you even thinking about this?!” Erika giggled, “I was watching this show about this serial killer and they said he was really smart. So, now I’m wondering.” Louis sucked in his cheeks, “I don’t know Erika… I guess… ugh I really don’t know.” Another student raised their hand. “No! No more questions!” “But its about the poem!” “Oh, go on then.” “Why does the caged bird sing?” Louis dropped his head on his desk as the class laughed.

          “I am done with this class.”

          “So we can leave?”

          “No! Now finish your assignment!”

          “Hey Ni…”

          “Hey, how was your day?”

          “Uh go- fucking awful. I have such a head ache.”

          “Oh I’m sorry…”

          “Ugh…” Louis got inside his car, “what about you? Nice day off?”

          “Well if you really wanna know,” Louis heard Niall take in a big breath, “I FUCKED ZAYN!”

          Louis moved the phone away from his ear, “really?”

          “Yes! Holy hell! It was amazing! You know how he stayed over? Well after you guys left he picked me up and threw me on the bed and had his way with me! Jonah didn’t even slip my mind! Oh and then he gave me a back massage, it was lovely! LOUIS! I’M FREAKING OUT!”
