Everything Blue

Harry Styles

I felt very uncomfortable as the man measured my body, touching every inch of me. I knew it was professional and I was excited for Louis' ball but I didn't want to go through this.
Even though I didn't have to pay a cent.
I was trying to think up how to explain this to my mum, how I was able to get a designer suit. She believed when I told her I had a girlfriend and that was why I wasn't home but she was pressing to meet her. It was a stressful lie I had brought out but it helped.
"Harry stop drifting and come pick a suit, whichever you want." Louis motions me over.
"Why haven't you been measured?" I ask while scanning the pages.
"I haven't grown in years."
My eyes land on a gorgeous suit. I run my fingers over the glossy page.
"You want that one?" Louis asks gently. I look at the price quickly and shake my head.
"No. It's ugly." I try to lie, I know how Louis is.
"Well you're getting it. And I have the maroon turtleneck so we'd match. Oi! Do you have this in his size?"
The two men and Louis walk off leaving me with my guilt and excitement.
When they come back I'm nearly bouncing in my boots over my excitement. I've never dressed this nice.
We both go into separate dressing rooms and I stare at myself in the mirror. This suit was beautiful and fit so well, I had to snapchat it.
I took a selfie and put the caption as high rolling. It didn't imply Louis was with me.
Once I walk out of the room my eyes land on how gorgeous Louis looked. His outfit was much more simple than mine but the look worked for him.

The rolled up sleeves drove me crazy, he knew exactly how to look good.
Once his eyes met with mine his smile grew all the way to his eyes.

I felt like a stunning...man. For the first time in my life, I felt like a man. Maybe it showed, the workers began clapping for me which made me feel famous.
"Wow Mister Tomlinson you look very sharp." The man said looking me in the eyes.
"Oh, we're not-"
"Get used to it H. Especially if this goes well for me." Louis said quiet enough for just me to hear.
I was absolutely flattered and felt comforted in the fact I was going to be celebrating with Louis.
Once we changed back and Louis handled the payment I look at my phone to see all the messages on snapchat. Everyone being nosey and wanting to be in my business.
I opened a few and ignored the majority of them. Some were rude, claiming that I was becoming a prostitute and that's how I could afford the suit. Others wanted to know how and if they could get in on it. I only really answered to Niall's.
B careful. Remember ur only 17.
I roll my eyes and send back an 'I will' because I know he's just trying to look out for me.
"Come, we have a dinner with my manager tonight to talk about how to act and speak at the event." Louis smiles once again but he looks exhausted. He's been working nonstop since he told me about this stupid party. I honestly was nervous to go, I was probably not nearly attractive enough to be there.
But this whole week I've been trying to have Louis back to school shop with me for my final year. He was so focused on this.

We arrive at the restaurant and instantly get seated due to Louis' status, Liam sitting across from the two of us.
"Well hello Harry I'm Liam. I've been working with Louis for years."
"So I've heard. Pleasure."
"Likewise. How old are you again?"
"Seventeen." I look at the table, the age was always an issue.
"Please tell me you've graduated."
Silence fell over the three of us as we all thought about what that meant to us. To me, it wasn't an issue, I was nearly done and Louis isn't that much older than me. Once I turn eighteen it won't even be a problem.
The waiter comes over and takes our drink order and Louis needs another minute to look at the menu.
"Well you need to try to avoid answering that question there. How long until you turn 18?"
"Five more months." I tap my fingers on the table trying not to blush or to cry but both seem unavoidable.
"Round up, for Louis' sake."
Louis and Liam began talking about how he needed to act and what star he had to find, who's ass he had to kiss and so on. Our food came out and I still felt left out, as if I didn't matter.
This lasted until we walked out to the car where Louis and Liam hugged and said their goodbyes. Neither said a word to me.
When Louis and I were alone in the car I finally felt comfortable enough to breathe.
"Thank you for doing this with me." Louis spits out once we were driving.
"Oh of course."
"Now baby, you wanna go home and dress up for daddy?" Louis gives me a grin, the one he knew drove me wild.
"Of course I do." I try not to jump him right then and there, I try to control myself.
"I just have one more question..." he trails off for a moment before taking a deep breath. "You haven't posted anything online recently right? About us."
I think about the suit picture, about how some people asked about him. "No." I lie through my teeth as if this makes it better.
"Alright. I don't want anything leaking before tonight, it's supposed to get papped so be ready for that. Be ready for a lot of attention okay?"
"I'm ready for anything if it has to do with you love." I say, this time telling the truth.
We drive the rest of the way in comfortable silence.
It's so overrated.
