Dreaming Fate

Chapter 8

Louis POV

He's not there.

And that makes sense. Because he doesn't exist and I am- not okay.

I walk up to the barstool at the spot previously occupied by..no one. There is a drink there though. A pink fruity one. One not meant for a guy.

"Do you like want something else?....." I look up to see Zayn staring at me with concern on his face. I guess there is cause for worry when a guy stands there staring at someone else's drink. Oops.

"Uh no, you didnt happen to see a um....." I trail off when I decide there is no way to ask what I was about to without sounding really creepy. I don't even know how to begin to describe my situation anyway.

"..A?" Zayn questions.

"Do you know where like a back exit is? I need a smoke" I half-lie. I could use a cigarette right now.

"Uh yeah mate just head to where the dj is and go to the end of the hallway right next to him." He finishes while pointing because I only caught half of what he just said.

"Thanks."

I get to the dj station only to be grabbed by a short blonde bloke.

"Heyr Im niallll and dis is Ollyyyyyyy." He points to the dj of the club and I wave. Still confused as to what exactly is happening here.

"I grabbed yer cuz ya look nice and I wanteds to be friends." He slurs and it's barely english over what was sure to be tons of strong alcohol and an...Irish accent?

"Uh mate your pissed, you should probably go home." As I tell him this his eyes seem to wander off, not really focussing on what i was saying.

"Noooooo, i can-can't leave 'arry. You'd like 'im probabl..." He trails off as his mate comes and pries him off of me.

"Uh sorry, he's had a few too many i guess." He shrugs and starts to remove the arm that niall had swung around me during this strange transaction.

"Yeah it's fine he's gonna have a hell of a hangover though. I begin to walk away to what I assume is the exit Zayn was talking about. There's a slim hallway leading up to the door and i have to push past about 3 drunk couples sucking each others faces off.

I finally reach the outside and take a breath of air that is much more clear than the grimy smell inside the club.

I lean against the side of the building and pull a cigarette out of my pocket. It's a nasty habit but I don't get to enjoy much these days.

Just as I'm about to light it I hear the door open and Liam comes into my view.

"Hey, thought I saw you come out here. You ready to go?" he asks

"Yeah I think I'm a bit too old for this." I say honestly, I feel worn out already.

"Bullshit your only 24! But we can go i guess, i met a guy and im gonna take him home.

"Ooooh Liam didnt know you had it in ya!" I tease him as he walks back to the entrance of the club.

He attempts to glare at me and grumbles "You know what I meant you fucker......"

As he walks back in I finally light my cigarette and inhale the satisfying smoke as the nicotene makes it's way through my body. I let the smoke dance out of my mouth and think about the boy who doesn't even fucking exist. Maybe I should stay and go grab an actual human and finally let out all this sexual frustration. Now that I think about it I haven't been laid in about 4 months....and it wasn't all that great to be honest.

At this point I think it'll do some good even though I don't really feel like wadling my way into that shithole tomorrow. But my hand and a dildo is just not gonna cut it for much longer. This may be the last time I go out for god knows how long.

I finish up my cigarette and make my decision. I'm gonna say bye to Liam and Im gonna pull and Im gonna forget about green eyes and brown curls.

I work my way around the building to find Liam quicker and to tell him about my decision.

I reach the parking lot in just enough time to see him closing the passenger and making his way to the drivers side of his car.

"Liam!" I yell right before he opens his door.

"Hey Tommo! On your way out?"

"Actually I'll probably stay for a bit" I say rubbing the back of my neck, "I mean who knows when I'll be able to do this again so...." I trail off as a look of what looks like realization comes across Liam's face.

"Ahh so Tommos looking to pull eh?" He says teasingly.

"Yeah well whatever happens happens Payno" I say sassily as he begins to get in his car. I can see the silhouette of the person in his passenger seat.

"Well use protection yeah?" He says with a chuckle as he pulls his phone out.

"I always do." I say with a laugh and bend down to say my parting words.

"I'll see you at wo-...." My words die in my throat as I make contact with those same damn pair of green eyes. This time i'm able to see that they're paired with a pair of lush lips and and what looks to be the softest chocolate curls. The worst part is he's staring right at me.

His lips part as it looks like he's about to say something and I honestly think I should be allowed more time to prepare myself.

"Do I-"

"SHIT! Sorry tommo I've gotta go my roomates about to destroy the place. See you tomorrow yeah?

He pulls off before I can formulate a response and before I can savor that voice. The fact that nearly brought me to my knees scares me a little and I'm left there with my mouth hanging open.

There's only one thought running through my mind at this point....

What the absolute fuck?

Sorry for the wait on the update school is destroying me! But I'm on break and should be updating a lot more. Do you think Harry and Louis are ever gonna get to meet properly? As always please vote and comment and I hope you guys are enjoying reading this. Love you all!
