CH.50: JUST ONE YESTERDAY

*TUESDAY*

"I found something interesting as I was digging up your past, Lloyd." Louis placed a newspaper print-out article on my desk.

"Can you not ruin my morning?" I shot him an annoyed look as I crumpled the article.

"I knew you were hiding something from the moment my eyes first laid on you..." He said pretty smugly.

"What's it to you?" I almost snapped.

"Do you want me to tell your boyfriend for you? I mean, I think he deserves to know what BAD thing you did." He pressed further.

"Do you have a death wish or something?! Too bad I can't give you what you want then for I've changed." I said seriously.

"Have you? Have you REALLY?" Then he walks away. FINALLY!

"What was that all about?" Niall asked.

"You should tell your best friend to mind his own business." I said bitterly.

Seriously, is Louis trying to provoke me? Because he sure is getting into my nerves...

I hate bringing the past up the most.

And Tomlinson just crossed the line.

******

"What can you possibly get out of meddling with my own business?" I confronted Louis during lunch.

"Hmm, satisfaction? I dislike the likes of you the most." He took a sip from his carton of milk.

"From the looks of this photo, I don't think you hate her at all..." Harry appeared out of nowhere and placed the picture of me and Louis hugging in the locker room on top of my lunch table for everyone to see.

"What the heck?" Louis' eyes widened.

'In your face!', I wanted to say to him but decided not to for I'm embarrassed of the photo as well.

"This is... not my best shot." Louis shook his head as he examined the picture closely.

Luke, Niall, and Zayn just stared at him with a look that says, 'Are you for real?' which I have on my face too.

"It's trending on the school's website." Harry smiled.

"And who gave you permission to post this kind of degrading and humiliating photo online?" I said with a hint of sarcasm.

"This guy." Harry placed an arm around Louis' shoulders.

"I permitted no such thing!" Louis removed Harry's arm.

"Yes, you did. I asked for your permission right after you two finished hugging. Let's do a little flashback, shall we?" Harry said.

~FLASHBACK TO THE NIGHT WHEN THE PHOTO WAS TAKEN~

*HARRY'S POV*

"Psst!"

"Did you say something?" Louis asked Cher.

"No." She replied.

"Mind if I post these photos that I'm currently taking right now on the school's website?" I asked Louis.

"Huh? Um, sure? Whatever." Louis said as he was facing me.

"Who are you talking to?" Cher asked him.

"No one. We should go. Niall's probably waiting outside already." Louis says and then they left.

~END OF FLASHBACK~

*CHER'S POV*

"We don't get it." Zayn says out loud and the rest of us nodded in agreement.

"I'm the locker, remember?" Harry rolls his eyes as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
