Opposites Attract 2 (Harry&Louis)

Chapter 5

LOUIS' POV

"Would you care to explain what is going on here?" His mother demanded.

My eyes darted from Harry's to hers and then to the ground. I couldn't even let out a breath, much less an entire sentence.

"It was an accident," Harry suddenly spoke up, "I leaned in to blow off an eyelash that was on his cheek and I got a bit too close."

"And you just decided to kiss him?" She crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow.

"No.. m'am.." He exhaled, "I don't know what came over me. I'm really sorry."

"I see," She sighed disappointedly.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, obviously annoyed.

"What do you mean? I've been calling and texting you since six in the morning! You have a meeting in twenty minutes and you look no way near appropriate to attend it."

"My phone died," I rolled my eyes. Harry stood tensely and awkwardly, gripping the ends of his shirt, "I'll see you at the meeting, mother."

"No," She snapped, "You will see me in the limo in five minutes. We'll stop by a suit shop to get you something nice and throw that nasty attire away,"

She looked to her left and grabbed a bouquet of Alstroemeria and dropping a hundred dollar bill on the ground. Without hearing a complaint, she exited the shop and got into the waiting limo.

"She seems nice," Harry's sarcasm lingered in the air.

"Very," I went to pick up the money from the ground and handed it to Harry, along with the employee's hat that rested on my head, and smiled, "I'm sorry. That wasn't supposed to happen. I didn't think she'd actually go out to find me."

"Yeah," Harry chuckled, "Well you should hurry. I don't want her to come in here again and catch us.."

I waited for him to finish his sentence. It's not like I didn't already know what he was going to say but I actually just wanted to hear him say it.

"Right," I laughed, "Well thank you for everything. I really appreciate it. Umm.. here, take another hundred."

Harry's eyes widened and he seemed amused, "What for?"

"For helping me out and giving me a place to stay for the night," I tried to force the money into his hand but he refused.

"Louis," He shook his head, "It's called a favor. It requires no payment nor owes. You don't have to do that, not with me."

Instead of taking the money, he took a hold of my hand and rubbed it.

"Thank you," I smiled again and slowly made my way out.

"Will I see you again?" He asked before I fully walked out.

I gave him a reassuring nod and chuckled, "Well how else would you get your clothes back?"

Will's POV

I impatiently waited for Ani to come to class. The lecture was just about to start and she still didn't show up.

"Okay class," The professor began, "I'd like to start the class off with a quote from-"

His ebrupt stop made me look up from my textbook and we all watched as Ani stepped into class.

"Ms. Tomlinson," Professor welcomed, "I'm glad you're here. Are you alright?"

"Yes sir. I'm sorry sir," She half smiled and made her way to an empty desk in the front.
