"This is completely irrelevant..." Louis said in an annoyed tone. Harry leads him to the front of the desk. Harry smirks and stands him in front of him. "Harry...can we just..."
"Shh..." Harry speaks and he looks at Louis's posture. "Now, begin the first step with your heel..." He says as he takes a hold of Louis's hand. "Place your hand firmly on the lady's back. When the music begins lead with your left foot." He speaks as he gets into the position. Louis looks nervous and was unsure if he could handle this.
"Now." He begins and he takes a step along with him. It's slow tentative steps and every now and then Louis steps onto Harry's foot on accident, but continues. "There...now there comes a natural turn." He says
As they dance Louis stumbles and falls right into Harry's chest. He takes a second before he looks into Harry's look of almost disappointment. Harry almost sighs and he then gives him his smile.
"Your instinct for dance is not so much lacking then catastrophic my lord." He speaks. Louis ends up scoffing and pushes away.
"I told you...you're just too tall!" He argues with the man.
"And about that frown you always wear all the time..." He says pinching his right cheek. "You really should smile more. It's rude to the lady. Act like you are having fun..." The butler continues as he pinches both of the boy's cheeks to form some kind of smile
"Enough!" Louis snaps and pushes his hands away.
"Young master..." He said astonished by his behavior.
"I've..." Louis pauses and turns away as he messes with the ring on his thumb. "I have forgotten how to smile as if I am having fun..." He said. It makes Harry stare at him for the longest time. He sighs and nods.
"Very well young master..." He speaks.

"Louis will look so good in blue..." Eleanor says with a wide smile as Niall helps her with her clothes. "The clothes I bought for him when I was in london are just perfect." She speaks as Niall backs away. She turns to the blonde and smiles.
"Now it's your turn to get out of these clothes and look cute as well..." She said with a smile. Niall widened his eyes and he gave a smile.
"Oh no madam I will be fine..."
"But your friends have received a makeover and you should too." She says as she walks over and makes Niall look to the other servants who do have frilly outfits on. All looking miserable in them.
"Uh madam it will be-"
"Oh come on Niall!"
"Let him be..." Louis's voice calls from the top of the stairs. Both Niall and Eleanor look up and see Louis in the blue suit that the lady had got for him. He looks serious as he stares down at her. Not seeming interested, but Eleanor didn't seem to notice.
"Louis! You look adorable!" She squeals as she runs over and hugs the boy who had just finished walking down the stairs. Louis makes an oof. "Wait..."
She looks to the ring that is on his hand and then to him. "That isn't the ring I brought you..."
"This ring is fine..." He said pushing away and not looking at her.
"No! I went to so much trouble to make you look so cute in your clothes and that ring doesn't even match your suit! You just don't want to wear the thing I gave you! Whyyyy!" She starts to fake sob. Louis sighs and closes his eyes for a second.
"That isn't it...the ring is-"
"Gotcha!" She says snatching the ring and making Louis gasp.
"Eleanor..." He speaks to her sternly eyes straight at the ring.
"This ring is obviously too big...the one I got you is the perfect size and-"
"GIVE IT BACK!" Louis shouts making her shut up. Everyone makes a silent gasp and looks right to Louis who is staring at her with almost a scowl. Eleanor seems shocked and she isn't sure why Louis is acting this way. When she doesn't do anything, Louis speaks. "Give it back, Eleanor..." He says holding his hand out.
She looks to his hand and then to him. "Wh-Why are you so angry. I went through so much trouble to try and make you happy..." He speaks, Louis is unfazed and Eleanor bites her lip. "What?! All I did was try to have some fun! And you're so angry..." She then looks to the ring and scowls at it. "Because of this ring...I hate it!" She shouts before throwing the ring on the ground, so hard that the gem breaks. Silence rings in the room as Louis stares at her with an angry expression. He hurries over and raises his hand but a hand stops him and makes Louis stop. He looks back and Harry is frowning at him.
"My lord...you forgot your walking stick..."
Eleanor begins to cry and Harry walks over. "You must forgive my lord...as that ring was important to him. It's been passed down generations and generations..." She bites his lip and looks to Louis who walks to the ring. He takes it and slowly walks to the window. She is silent as she watches the boy throw it out the window.
Everyone gasps and remained silent. "None of it matters now...I am the head of the Tomlinson estate..." He says bravely. Everyone is shocked and looks around. Harry only is the one who smirks.
Louis walks over to Eleanor who is sniffling and looking down. "When are you going to stop crying..." He said with an annoyed scoff. Eleanor looks up and Louis pulls out a hanky. "Your face is a mess and you call yourself a lady..."
It is silent for a few seconds before Louis smirks. "I don't know if I should ask a lady with a messy face to a dance." He speaks.
Suddenly upbeat violin music plays and everyone faces Harry who is playing it smoothly. Eleanor looks to Louis as he holds his hand out. "Soirée étiquette is to forget all the unpleasant things...and dance the night away...right my lady?" He asked. Eleanor gasps and then within seconds they were dancing around the dance floor.
It was almost perfect.
Harry could only watch with his dark red gaze...
A/N Okay so Sebastian truly doesn't do that...but I wanted to add that because I didn't want him find with this whole betrothed thing.
