My Cinderella (l.s) [COMPLETED]

XXII. Harry

So sorry for the late update... Exams and stuff, it's stressful. I'm starting to explode my head off.

---

I smiled, thinking about my date with Louis. I was going to bring him to the cinema. The owner of that cinema was my old friend, Ed, so it wasn't that hard to ask him to give us some privacy tonight. Besides, he kind of owed me a big one. But I swear we weren't secretly enemies or anything. I promise.

Actually, I luckily saw him at the mall one day, but we were both in a hurry so he just gave me his number. We decided to meet up today at Starbucks. Y'know, just to hang out and stuff.

During the ride there, I suddenly remembered about my past with Taylor. It was a few days before I found out about me sexuality and around a week before I kicked out Louis' bully--that was the day I definitely remembered.

I was dating the snake itself when one day, she wanted to hook up with me. I refused, simply because I wasn't interested. I hadn't realized I was gay back then, and besides, I was only a 4th grader back then.

The day after, I saw having a threesome with Kendall and Nick Grimshaw in the janitor's closet. The janitor actually asked me for help to open the door and when we saw them, instead of being embarrassed, they actually asked me join them.

After we broke up, Taylor started some rumour about me cheating and stuff. It was no use, really, because the janitor did see her giving Nick a blowjob.

Taylor and Kendall got kicked out for doing inappropriate things on school grounds while Nick wasn't enrolled back then so nothing really happened to him.

Back to the real world, I finally arrived at my destination; Starbucks! I closed the door of my car--I mean, it was my mum's car but whatever. I went inside the nice-looking building and instantly found Ed on the very corner.

"Hey, H. Bought you your usual," Ed greeted when I neared him.

I hummed as a reply as I sat down on the chair. The place looked pretty great, it had been a long time since I was last here. You know that feeling when you go into cafes? Everything just felt so away from the real world. Everyone was busy with their own things and being alone didn't make you look like a fool as long as you had your laptop.

"So, how've you been? I see your hair have grown longer... It isn't that curly anymore." He pouted a little.

I smiled, taking a sip of my ice chocolate. "Yeah, well I'm pretty good. Fine."

Ed raised an eyebrow. "Oh, I know that look. Who do you have your eyes set on?" he asked. How comes he knows me that well?

I felt the colour rising to my cheeks, but I ignored it. "Uhh, a guy... He just has the most beautiful blue eyes ever, I could look at it forever and still be amazed. His feathery brown hair and his cute little tummy. He's just perfect."

Ed smiled genuinely. "Tell me about him."

"Hey, Harry?" Ed said after we calmed down from our laughs. I replied with an 'mhm', sipping on my chocolate before frowning when I realized the bottle was empty.

"You stated before that you have a date, right?" he asked and continued once I replied with a nod. "What time does it start again?"

"Half past four."

Ed looked at his watch before looking at me worriedly. "Haz, it's forty-five past four, you need to go!"

Loading

"No fooking way!" I gaped before looking at the clock and true to his words, it was in fact forty-five past four. Well, now it was forty-six...

Cursing at my sadly slow brain, I quickly collected all my belongings; phone and stuff, before shouting a quick 'bye!' and running to my car.

Panicked, I started the car and drove it to Louis' house. So, yeah I might be a bit quicker than allowed and didn't follow a few rules that day, but that was allowed, right? I mean, no, but whatever.

I finally arrived at five to five. I took a bouquet of flowers from the backseat before walking out of the car and closing the door. I had bought the flowers earlier. I wasn't sure what Louis' favourite flower was, so I just bought everything that looked good to me. Plus, there was a small note that held a very important question slipped in there somewhere.

Taking a deep breath, I knocked.

Knock knock knock.

Silence.

I wasn't welcomed with a big grin and a warm hug, no. The door opened and once again, almost hit me, but inside was a red and teary-eyed Louis.

"Lou, what's wron-"

"What are you doing here? Weren't you enjoying your date with Ed, you cheater?" Louis shouted at my face before slamming the door.

I blinked. Wait, what? A date with Ed? I knocked again a few times even though he probably wouldn't care. To my luck, he actually opened the door.

"Louis, how'd you know that? I swear Ed is just-"

"Kendall. And she brought pictures. Now shut up and go away!"

"But, Lou--Ugh, here! I have something for you."

Louis glared at me. "You basically just cheated at me before we even got together and now you have the nerves to give me a bunch of useless flowers?!"

Louis took the bouquet from me and threw it at the floor. He stepped on it a few times until it was completely ruined, then he threw them away.

I gulped a little, scared I'd lose control of my emotions. The question I'd been longing all this time is in there somewhere and Louis... he just kicked it away?

I shook my head. Don't let it get to you, Haz. You can cry all you want later at your house but try to fix this mess Kendall made first.

"Louis," I started. "Ed is just my friend. He-"

SLAM!
