Baby Heaven's in your Eyes

Chapter 4

"So I think I like Zayn."

Louis stared at Liam from across the table, not really shocked. It was Tuesday and they were in the cafeteria eating lunch. Barbara and Eleanor had gone to her bathroom because apparently Eleanor had just gotten her period.

It was exactly ten days after the party, and Louis hadn't seen Zayn, Harry and Niall ever since. Well, unless you counted the times he'd seen them leaning against the wall of their school, smoking and laughing while Louis waited to be picked up.

"You've-you've been talking to him recently?" Louis asked.

"Uh, not really. I mean he approached me last Thursday when I was waiting for my chauffeur and asked me if I wanted to go somewhere."

"Where?"

"He just said 'somewhere'. Of course I didn't go, because I had to be home and I don't really have anything to talk about with him."

"Do you have his number?"

"No. He didn't ask for it and I couldn't just offer it to him."

"So did you two do anything other than make out?"

Liam shook his head, to Louis' relief. Louis wasn't relieved because Liam didn't do dirty things with a boy (he found out that he didn't really mind), he was relieved because if Liam had done anything other than making out, he'd officially be more experienced than him. And Louis always wanted to be the best in everything.

"But uh, don't tell Eleanor that yeah? I don't want my parents, or anyone else for that matter to find out."

"I won't tell her, of course."

And their conversation was cut short when the girls returned to the table, smiling. They changed the subject to the upcoming cricket game that was this Saturday. Louis didn't really enjoy sports, because doing sports meant sweating and stinking and he just wouldn't have that.

Maybe that's why I have a tummy and a fat arse.

When school finished that day, Liam, Barbara and Louis went to buy tickets for the Winter formal, that was going to take place in a month at The Dorchester Hotel, the most expensive hotel in Doncaster, if not in all of England. Each student would get a suite for them and their partner to stay the night. Usually the boys bought the tickets, and the girls just did a big effort on looking pretty.

"Who are you taking?" Louis asked Liam, who shrugged.

"I don't know. I'll probably go with a girl in our class."

"You should take Lindsay. She broke up with Tom last week."

"I probably will."

"I'm taking Niall." Barbara said and normally, Louis would mind it if a public school boy would even step in the hotel, but he just shrugged.

Niall seemed cool and laid back, knew how to have a good time.

They waited at the carpool for their chauffeurs, when Louis saw Niall and Zayn approaching. He elbowed Liam discretely, who blushed and looked down at his shoes, trying to seem occupied.

"Hi babe." Niall said, looking around but Barbara assured that her chauffeur hadn't arrived yet. He pecked her lips, before swinging an arm around her shoulders.

"We're going out tonight yeah?" he asked her and she nodded.

"You want to come?" Zayn asked, looking at Louis, then at Liam.

On a school night? Like that would happen.

"Uh...sure?" Liam said. "Where?"

"We're just going out for dinner at a diner in town." Niall answered excitedly. "They have the best burgers in Doncaster, hands down."
