It was Saturday.
Typically, on Saturdays, I watch films with Gemma, mum cooks lots of biscuits -its her speciality- and I go out with my friends in the afternoon. But today its not the same.
Okay, mum will obviously make the biscuits, nothing can prevent her from doing that, but I won't spend time neither with Gemma nor with my friends. Because its Louis' party. And I am really nervous about it and I am thinking of not going because I won't know any of his friends and I will feel alone as the only person I know is him, but I really want to see him.
He invited me and it will seem rude if I reject his invitation, but I don't know if I want to go there, I won't feel comfortable.
"Harold, mum said that you have to clean up your room. Stand up now!", Gemma's voice was heard of the bottom of the stairs.
" I have already cleaned it", I lied. Well, its not really messed-up and I am really bored right now.
"I know that you are lying little curly one", she shouted but I could hear her laughing.
She appeared in my room and as she stood next to the door, she looked around carefully. When her eyes met mine we started laughing.
"Thats what you call cleaned up? I don't think so".
"C mon now Gemma, yesterday I was the one that washed the dishes. I am not the only one who has to do the chores here", I said.
She thought of it for a while and she smiled as she knew that I was right.
"I will do it tomorrow", I promised.
She agreed and she turned to leave the room but then I called her.
"Have you got any plans for now?", I asked.
"Not really, why?"
I had to find some clothes for the party and I don't think that my friends are keen of shopping so I thought to ask Gemma if she wanted to come with me and help me find cause I didn't have any idea what to wear.
Louis didn't tell me what I sould wear and I want to look like the other friends of him, but I don't know if I have to dress up more elegant or more casual.
"I was wondering if you want to go shopping with me".
"Yes, I want to buy a present so I think that mum can drive us to the shopping center".
I was feeling really relieved as I knew that she could help me.
***
We had already searched in millions of shops to find a present for a friend of Gemma.
I don't know why I agreed to go first to the shops she wanted but I thought that it doesn't matter. Now my feet were hurting and I was feeling really tired and we were just at the beginning.
Gemma was full of energy and she was showing me things all the time saying: "This is amazing, I love it", and then she was finding something new that she loved more.
I was sure that she wouldnt find anything for her friend but then she said:
"Thats what I'll buy her. This perfume smells amazing, she will like it very much".
A sight of relief filled my body when she finally concluded to the thing she wanted to buy. She paid and she asked me what I wanted to look for.
"I have a party tonight and I need some new clothes. Maybe more elegant".
I reached to the conclusion that the most of the friends of Louis would wear more elegant clothes.
"Who is having a party?"
Did she have to make this question?
"Louis, he is a guy from the X-Factor".
I prefered not to tell her more informations about the way we first met and all the others.
"And why are you acting like this?"
What?
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know, as you said his name you blushed and you are acting strange. How do you met him?", she asked then and she got on my nerves.
"I am not acting strange and I just met him", I responded a bit rude and I entered in a shop by starting looking for clothes.
Hopefully she didn't make other questions and she followed me.
We had already searched in some shops, but we hadnt found anything. Mum would come to pick us up in some minutes and I didn't have what to wear.
"Harry, that must suit you perfectly", Gemma said then happily and she gave to me the clothes.
It was a nice black jean and a blue shirt. They were amazing and Gemma was determined that they were made for me.
I bought them and we went to find mum's car which was attending us outside the shopping center.
"Did you have fun?", she asked us cheerfully as she begun driving.
"Yes, we had, but I need some sleep now", I said and I meant it. I was really tired from all of this but what was important was that I found clothes.
Mum let me sleep and do the cleaning up the next day so I had a long sleep till the afternoon that I decided to woke up.
The truth is that I thought of it for a while. Waking up to go to Louis' party was a decision of the last minute. I put on my clothes and Gemma occupied with my hair. When she left the room I put on my All Star and I sprayed a little perfume.
I was ready to go.
"Have fun", Gemma said as I was leaving by the door and she winked at me.
I didn't respond. I really wanted to have fun but what if Louis leave me alone there? He has invited many friends so he is not obliged to occupy with me all the time. Even though I don't know anyone there.
It was dark outside and music was playing on the radio as mum was driving me to his house. She was singing the song she knew but I didn't join her. I was keep thinking if it was a better idea to turn back. But it was late. Mum's car stopped in front of a house and I left the car automatically.
"Have fun", she shouted and I smiled at her.
Louis opened to me the door.
He looked really good in his white T-shirt and the beanie he was wearing made him look cute. I wanted to squeeze him in my hug that moment, but I just smiled at him.
He was trying not to laugh for a reason.
"Why are you ready to laugh?", I asked.
"No, nothing. You look adorable in this shirt", he said and he looked at me.
I blushed and I gave him a little smile as he told me to enter to the house.
I saw many people playing video games, dancing, eating snacks and drinking alcohol.
Louis was holding a beer too.
Then I understood why Louis was ready to laugh. All of them were wearing casual clothes, the boys trousers and T-shirts and the girls sorts and tops. I felt a bit nervous, but I remembered that Louis said to me that I was adorable.
"Do you want something to drink?", he asked me then.
"No, I don't drink. Thanks".
He informed me that there is pizza in the kitchen and he introduced me to some if his friends. They looked sympathy and a girl was staring at me.
"Do you want to play with us?", a boy with black hair and green eyes asked.
I didn't feel comfortable and I said no gently. Louis was playing with them and I was just staring at him.
The girl approached to me and stood next to me by started talking.
"I haven't seen you again. Are you Louis' friend?", she asked me.
"Yes, I met him in the X-Factor".
"Are you auditioning?", she asked and she looked at me amazed.
"Yes, I am".
I saw Louis looking at us but when I looked at him he turned his face fast on the other side. He seemed angry.
I continued talking with the girl for a while but then I went to the kitchen to get some water. She was friendly with me and I liked the idea that all of this made Louis feel..jealous?
I heard him following me.
"Are you having fun?"
"Yes, I was talking with a friend of yours. She is very kind and funny", I said as I turned him my back and I opened the fridge.
"I noticed". His face got dark and he was heard sad and a bit angry at the same time.
Suddenly, I split some of a drink in my shirt.
"Fuck", I said and I tried to balance the bottle in the table.
"Its ok. Come with me, I'll show you where is the bathroom", he said and he went upstairs.
He unlocked a door and he entered the room as he helped me clean my shirt.
As he was rubbing the shirt powerfully we were really close and I could feel his hot breath in my face.
"Its better now", he said quietly and he turned to meet my eyes but then we started kissing.
I don't know how did this happen, but it just happened.
His kiss was sweet and his lips were soft and warm. I could feel my heart beating and I couldn't feel my feet. He touched my curles and then he stopped to look me into the eyes smiling.
Suddelny, someone knocked the door and asked if was anyone in. We didn't answer as we were looking each other confused and a short girl entered the bathroom.
"Oh, sorry, may I interrupt you?", she said as she turned to go.
"No, we were leaving. I was just helping Harry to clean his shirt", Louis said immediately and we left by closing the door.
Louis blushed and I was sure that I was too. We didn't say a word, we were just looking at each other in some moments but we were turning our faces again. That was surely one of my favourite moments.
