Shy||l.t. a.u.

day thirteen||part two

The boy's eyes snap open, his heart racing rapidly inside his chest and he feels the stickyness of his skin agaisnt the fabric of his clothes. He blinks, trying to get used to the light that shines inside his eyes before noticing a person stands in front of him. Then he remembers he fell alsleep outside the library. His eyes meet the ones he met eariler. The kind, brown eyes he's in love with. He swallows dryly before licking his lips and sitting up properly on the uncomfortable bench, his back aches but he ignores it as he quickly smiles at Holland."Hi." he says raspily. She smiles back softly at him.

"Hey Louis." she chuckles. "I just thought I would wake you up since it was it's the middle of the night and all and your sleeping on a bench, in front of a library." Louis chuckles lightly, feeling humiliated she saw him sleeping outside where she works, and closes the book that sits on his lap before getting up, stretching his limbs.

"Thanks." he says. Holland shrugs and steps back.

"Well bye, it was nice seeing you again." Louis nods with a nervous smile before he watches her turn around and walk away and instantly he begins to freak out. He doesn't want to watch her just walk away again. Louis parts his lips before quickly catching up with the girl before she crosses the street.

"Holland wait." Louis says frantically. The girl quickly turns around with raised eyebrows. He quickly pushes to the back of his mind that she has a boyfriend,the kiss with her boyfriend, being touched by those hands of her boyfriend and swallows thickly, contamplating how to ask her what he wants to ask. "I was wondering, would you like to hang out sometime?" He hopes she won't laugh in her face or anything of the sort to humiliate him. This question was a long-shot, but he's glad he tried.

"I would like that." she repsonds, Louis shocked, but doesn't show it. She waves to him before turning back around and walking across the road, her figure disappearing in the distance and Louis watching her with love in his eyes and his heart. He can't believe that she accepted. He really can't.

He's still that shy boy from long ago. However, this time, he got the courage to actually ask the girl he loves to hang out. With him. So many positive emotions run through his body and as he walks back to the dorms on campus, gripping the book he holds in his hand tightly, he can't help but just think of how this will all play out. Images of her pop into his mind and his smile grows wider at each and every one of them.

He can't believe that he, the shy outcast, got the beautiful girl of his dreams to talk with him. She's not his. However, one day, he wants her to be his and he'll work hard to make it that way because that's how much he is completely in love with Holland Daniels.
