********A/N: If I had a boyfriend who did stuff like this for me, we would be married. But alas, here I am, single and desired by none. Yahoo. Okay, I'm kind of an 80's movie fanatic because they are so adorable and I wish that was my life. Also, I wanted to take this time to thank not only my 10 lovely followers, but my 67 reads! WOW! Maybe after I finish Oxy I was thinking about a spinoff about Niall and his girlfriend because they don't really come up? Thoughts? I'm outtie.***************

Lego House: Ed Sheeran

Louis' POV

**Fast Forward to 4:00**

Elise had left at noon, I was so sad to see her leave. I plan on making this the best date ever. I am doing this all for Elise and even though she isn't with me, I am loving her more and more. She makes me feel all of these emotions that I had never felt before. I'm doing this all for her.

I turned my dorm into a perfect date. I pushed my bed next to Jack's and put pillows on it to make it like a couch. I bought practically every Ed Sheeran song ever known to man. I went to the movie store and bought The Breakfast Club and Say Anything to watch with her and then I drove down to the supermarket and bought Ramen Noodles. I "borrowed" the campus coffee shop's table and two chairs, yes I will return them. My final stop was the florist, where  I got one of every single kind of flower they had. Cost me a fortune, but it was worth it.

Now I was feverishly reading all five hundred and twenty four pages of Jane Eyre in order to impress her. Tonight I was going to ask her to be my girlfriend.

**Fast Forward to Date**

Wow. Elise looked stunning, stunning isn't even a word that could be used to describe her. She was, wow. Simple as that, wow. She wore a 'wow' white lace dress and a teal necklace and her hair was curly, but not too curly and I really wanted to play with it and twirl my fingers around her hair like I did last night while she was sleeping. Wow. 

I didn't say anything for a long time, I was so taken aback by her beauty. She was so aloof and effortless. I was intimidated by her beauty. I was nothing compared to her. My jeans and plain shirt were no match for her beauty.

"Earth to Louis," Elise laughed, oh how I love that laugh, "Is the date going to take place in the hallway or are you going to let me in?" There goes that contagious, wonderful laughter.

"Uh, yeah, you can come in." I said, I hugged her and then rubbed the back of my neck with my hand, nervous habit. She smelled like perfection, all of the good smells in the world combined into one. Yeah, she smells pretty damn good.

"Wow, you really out did yourself. You are amazing, I can't believe you did this all for me." Elise said, smiling. I loved to make her smile.

"Well I sure wasn't going to do it for my roommate, that's for sure. Anyway, the Ramen is getting cold. Let's eat." I said, and we did. I made her laugh and she made me laugh. I spewed random Jane Eyre quotes, and she loved it.

After we ate, Elise and I watched The Breakfast Club and Say Anything. I had my arms wrapped around her waist and I played with her hair and she had her head on my chest and she whispered all the words to both movies and it was the cutest thing I have ever seen. We laughed at all the funny parts and I must admit I was getting a little teary eyed when it was sad. It was the best date I had ever had.

When Say Anything had ended, I made my move. I shifted ever so slightly, so that we were looking into each other's eyes and took up all of my courage.

"Elise," I said, her eyes were sparkling and she bit her lip, "I was wondering if," I rubbed the back of my neck with my hand, "You would like to be my girlfriend? If not we can still be friends, but just so you know  I will try every tactic known to man to try and get you to be my girlfriend."

"I would love to be your girlfriend, Louis. I was hoping you would ask me." Elise said. I had never been so happy in my entire life. I jumped up from the couch/beds and kissed Elise right on the cheek and I have no idea what came over me.

"She said yes!" I screamed running out into the hallway, "Hey you! Yeah you! Down the hall! She said yes! She's my girlfriend! Don't look at her or I'll make sure you don't see again! She said yes!" There was a series of cheering and fist pumping and I'm pretty sure I ran into the wall at some point.

It didn't matter. Elise was my girlfriend. MY girlfriend. My GIRLFRIEND. We were dating. Holy crap. Is this really happening? Not only was she my girlfriend, but I was making her laugh.  

Then she ran up to me and kissed me. Not on the cheek or forehead of anything, but my lips. I held her waist tightly and we kissed some more. She still smelled so nice. Then someone yelled at us about getting a room. I yelled back saying, "She said yes! Now shut up!"

We kissed some more and then she left. We had class tomorrow. I put my number in her phone and I told her to call me whenever, or not, whatever she wanted.

Elise Paige Williams was my girlfriend.
