~ Five ~

Louis was sitting in his seat the next day. He was having a good time at the game together with Daniel, the guy that Harry had set him up with. It was half time and Daniel got back from the bathroom with a big smile.

"So what do you think of the game this far?"

"It's great!" Louis ensured him. Arsenal was leading, 2 to 1.

"Great!" Daniel placed his hand on Louis leg, gently petting it before leaving his hand to rest at the spot. The same spot that Harry had placed his had the day before. Louis couldn't help but to compare Daniel hands to Harry. They were about the same size, but Harry's hand was thinner, and much softer.

He didn't feel the warmth spread though his body either, as he had done when Harry touched him. Louis had to mentally slap himself, because he was on a date and he were comparing his date to Harry, the matchmaker that had pair him up with the guy for the date.

The players made their way onto the field again, starting to do a short warm up, preparing for the second half as Louis caught a glimpse of a man a few rows in front of them and he just had to send Harry a picture.

From: Louis
Found your soulmate!

Sending a sneeky picture of the man in a fedora.

From: Harry
Do you see a ring?!

From: Louis
Yes, sadly L

From: Harry
Typical...

"Who are you texting?" Daniel asked after Louis missed Arsenal's next goal. He had once again forgotten that he were at a date.

"Uh, Harry" He said. Daniel was also one of Harry's clients so he knew who he was, but for some reason he looked confused.

"Styles?" Louis nodded, putting his phone away. He didn't want to be rude to Daniel, even if he enjoyed texting with Harry, he was sure he wouldn't like it if his date were texting on their first meeting. "You text him?"

"Yeah, we're friends, I guess..."

"Wow, I mean... He and I aren't even on first name basis..."

Louis didn't know how to respond to that. He was kind of happy that Harry didn't have the same relationship that they had with all his clients, but they were just friends. And after a date that Louis had spent thinking almost only about Harry he wasn't sure he wanted that to be all.

Harry was funny, charming, kind, but there were also something more. Something Louis didn't fully understand, but he wanted to. He wanted to get to know Harry better, he wanted to know what that feeling he had deep inside him when he was with Harry was. Then he thought of how silly he was. He and Harry obviously weren't fit for each other. If they were, Harry wouldn't have set him up on dates with others...

When the two men left the game to go separate ways, they both agreed on not seeing each other again. At least not 'seeing' as in dated. It was Daniel who brought the topic up and Louis understood him. He knew he had been a terrible date, he just hoped Daniel had a good time at the game, either way.

When the night of Louis' date with Peter arrived, Harry picked him up from his house. The matchmaker looked even more gorgeous that day and Louis couldn't help but to sneak glances of the curly haired man as he drove down the streets of London.

"So, how are you feeling?" Harry asked as he parked outside of the restaurant.

"I'm nervous..."
