Something Great- One Direction Midnight Memories
Gotta Be You- One Direction Up All Night
She Looks So Perfect- 5 Seconds of Summer
Louis was nervous. He was going to his first uni party. Now you're probably thinking that it's his first year. It isn't. It's his second year. Actually, it's his second week of his second year. You see, he kind of dedicated his first year to good grades and extra credit, you know? He didn't make many friends, only people he occasionally talked to during class. He had two best friends and that was it. He had Zayn and Liam. Liam was gay and Zayn was bi but had a serious relationship with his girlfriend of three years, Perrie. Yeah, Louis was friends with her too I guess. Louis was also gay and no, Louis and Liam did not have feelings for each other.
So it was not a surprise that when they arrived to the party Zayn went off with Perrie to their own group of friends, and Liam off to his friends. Louis quickly went to grab a beer and then scurried off to a corner.
It also was not a surprise that an hour later, Louis was still at that corner, had barely moved and had not spoken to anyone. It was two hours later that Louis finally found someone.
His name was Niall. He had sharp blue eyes that Louis found so attractive, even though he wasn't attracted to Niall (when Louis tells Niall that today, Niall teases him about it.). His hair was dyed blonde and looked great. Niall was Irish, and very, very drunk.
Niall had stumbled over to Louis, clapped a hand onto his shoulder, than pulled him to the dance floor, all the while shouting: "Ayy, Bambi! Why are you all 'lone? Come oooon! Lee's daaance!" Louis was slightly (a lot) drunk, so he went a long with it.
And if Neon lights came on and he twerked a bit, no one had to know (well, actually everyone at the party saw so, people did know, but whatever.).
(TIME LAPSE HI GUYS OH MY GOSH WHATS UP? ARE YOU GOOD? THAT'S GREAT I LOVE YOU!)
Louis woke up the next morning and groaned stretching out his limbs and wincing at his throbbing head ache. He grabbed his phone from the bedside table and checked the time. It was almost one o' clock, and Louis gasped because what day was it? Did he have classes? Shit shit shit! He quickly realized he didn't have classes, breathing a sigh of relief and getting out if his bed. He pulled a shirt over his head and sweatpants over his legs. He soon noticed a blonde boy laying on the floor next to his bed. He racked his brain trying to figure out who it was, flashes of the night flicking through his mid before he remembered. Niall must've slept over last night because Louis knew they didn't hook up. He also knew Niall and Zayn hadn't hooked up because he could hear Perrie singing in the shower. Louis walked into the kitchen and made himself a cuppa then went to the living room to watch the news.
Half an hour later, Louis had been joined by Perrie and was now watching Netflix New Girl, some show that Perrie loved and Louis hated (loved also). At the part when Nick and Jess kiss for the first time (Perrie and Louis squealing with each other cuddled up on the couch) Niall came out of Louis' room and sat down on the couch awkwardly.
"Uh, hi?" Louis tried. Niall's head flung up to look at him, and he groaned throwing a hand up to his head.
"You got any aspirin?" Niall asked and Louis chuckled.
Louis got up from the couch, kissing Perrie on the forehead when she whined from the loss of warmth. He motioned for the blue eyed boy to follow him and brought Niall to the bathroom. Louis got Niall a glass of water and the aspirin bottle out, handing them to Niall who thanked him. Louis leaned against the wall staring at Niall swallowng the pills.
"I'm not sure how to deal with you, I know we didn't hook up, and we found each other when we were drunk." Louis said, pursing his lips slightly.
"I think I want to be your friend." Niall said, grinning. Louis smiled and nodded because why the fuck not? He'd have a friend other than Zayn and Liam and Perrie (who were great by the way) and it was just something great to have, a friend. Someone he could talk to whenever and laugh with and go to classes with.
Louis and Niall spent the rest of the day and next day getting to know each other. Starting with the big things like sexuality and past relationships and ending small, favorite food, colors, stores.
Niall had learned that Louis was very precise, needing everything to be planned before hand. Louis had six sisters Charlotte, Felicite (Lottie and Fizzy as Louis frequently called them), Pheobe, and Daisy (twins). His mum also recently gave birth to another set of twins, Ernest his first brother and Doris another sister. He also has a half sister Georgia Austin, on his dad's side. He has anxiety and usually is rather awkward meeting new people. Zayn and Liam basically saved his life when he was at his lowest point, planning his suicide out. He has a real close relationship with his mom, coming home every other week to visit her.
Louis had learned that Niall has one brother, Greg, who is married with a son Theo. Niall is very confident and has lots of friends. He is irish (obviously, Louis already knew that, the accent gave it away) and party's a lot. Like a whole lot. Niall was bi and liked someone but Niall didn't know the name of his boy that he was "in love with him Lou, god he is so kind always giving his crumbs to the birds and helping people out and he has the prettiest brown eyes and fuck he is so gorgeous" and Louis laughed, and told him he had never been in love. Which was true, Louis had never been in love with a person, he had stuck to himself, dated a few boys here and there, but none he was in love with.
(ANOTHER TIME LAPSE I FEEL LIKE WE CAN GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER HERE! FAV COLOR?)
Three months later and Niall and Louis are living in a flat together. They've grouped up there friends to become one big group and it is going great. Oh, and guess what? Liam and Niall have met and are so in love it's sickening (not really it is actually really adorable but whatever). Turns out that was the boy Niall was in love with and Louis totally set them up. He knew it was Liam a few days after Niall told him about the boy and began to try and get them alone together, finally getting them to meet. They met each other, went on a few dates, both of them telling Louis how perfect the other one is (also sharing some sex details, and trust me, Louis wished he was Zayn because Zayn really wouldn't have cared)and eventually made it official and Liam pretty much lives with Niall and Louis now.
But, despite being surrounded by new friends and people, Louis still felt off. He still felt like he was missing something.
Louis was missing someone. He wanted someone he could cuddle up with on the couch and watch The Titanic and early morning love making. He wanted to feel loved.
Niall was going to find him someone.
