Sublimity (au l.t.)

"close your eyes" he tells me. "why, how do I know you aren't going to murder me?". He chuckles. "I thought I already told you the answer to that?" he asks rhetorically thinking back to the night of the party. I do as I'm told and I close my eyes. "what's so good about this room anyways?" I hear him lock the door and flip a switch. "open your eyes" he whispers behind me. I can feel his hot breath on the nape of my neck and I shiver.

I open my eyes and look up. I see stars an galaxies and planets. I gasp. "it's so pretty" I say like a little kid. I hear Louis faint laughs, I can tell he's smiling even though I can't see him. He speaks up. "my mum used to take me here when I was a kid. We used to have contests to see who could find the most constellations within a matter of minutes." I look at him as he takes his lip ring in between his teeth. He kill me when he does that. "no stop, Em you don't like him" I scold myself mentally.

"I use to have a telescope in my room," I break the silence. "I bought it with my own money because my parents always taught me if I wanted something I had to work for it. So I bought a telescope and put it at my window in my room. Each night I would look at the stars, and I would draw constellations and write down the origins of them. I guess you could call me a nerd," I hear him snicker and I playfully hit his shoulder.

"as I was saying," I continue. " I had it for so long and I just was so captivated by the sky that I got 'distracted'. That's what my parents said anyways. They eventually took it away from me and sold it. I was so disappointed when it happened. But I guess what happens happens. I just ...... Shouldn't have pushed my academics away." he frowns. "when is your birthday?" he asks.

Why does he want to know my birthday? "um next week actually" he nods. "why?" I ask tilting my head. "uh no reason, just curious" he brushes it off. I just shrug and look at the ceiling. The stars illuminating the room. I can literally feel Louis staring at me. "can I help you?" I ask with a slight giggle.

He steps closer to me, he moves a strand of hair out of my face and I blush. Why am I blushing?!? His face neared mine. Wait are we about to kiss. My heart races ninety miles per hour. We are interrupted by the door handle jiggling. Thank god. Louis quickly grabs my wrists, flips off the light switch, and pulls us both in a closet. This closet is so cluttered. You can delete claustrophobia in the air. Louis wraps his arms around my waist.

"what are you doing?" I ask trying to move my head away. "shh" he silences me. The person that was trying to open the door earlier successfully entered the room. "who's in here" the voice booms. It's do quiet in the closet you can hear our breathing. I look up at Louis. He blue eyes bore into mine. I don't know how log we've been staring at each other but my eyes are starting to burn from lack of blinking.

Louis peeps his head out of the door and checks if the room is clear. I ask and he nods. We sneakily walk out of the planetarium and run to the car. Louis hops in the driver seat whilst I plop in the passenger seat.

"did you have fun?" he asks catching his breath. I nod and smile.

For once I had fun in my life. AND I ALMOST GOT IN TROUBLE!!. The fun kind of trouble that you'll laugh at in your old days. If my parents find out I went out on a date with ..... Him....I'm dead. But right now, I don't care. I don't care what consequences I will receive. All I know is, is that I had fun.
