I didn't even realize I even fell asleep until I got up and saw that t had been dark outside. I shoot up from the bed and reach for my phone.

4 missed calls from Lou :))

5 new messages from Lou :))

Oops

Opening my phone I read the texts,

5:45pm

Want to go out somewhere for dinner? Im tired of hotel food.

6:00pm

Harold? I'm still up to go out if you are.

6:20pm

Is everything okay? I you haven't answered any of my called and I was told you came back a while ago.

7:50pm

Are you ignoring me? Its been like two hours and you haven't responded to anything?

8:10pm

Please call me.

I immediately call his number and sit at the edge of my bed anxiously. Only a few rings go by before Louis picks up, "Harry? Is everything okay? Where have you been?" He asks quickly.

"I am so sorry, I accidentally fell asleep and my phone must have been turned off." I try to explain without sounding like I am making up excuses.

"Oh, I was just getting worried because I thought maybe you were ignoring me or something happened,"

"No, no. I promise you I was just asleep. I didn't even realize how tired I was until I ended up falling asleep," I let out a nervous laugh, not knowing if Louis was upset with me.

"Yeah, it's no worries, I know it's late but are you still wanting to go out for dinner? I didn't get anything to eat because I was too anxious to know if you were okay or not,"

I scratch the back of my neck, "yeah, i'm pretty hungry I haven't really had a lunch today so dinner would be nice," I stand up and go to where my clothes were neatly folded in my suitcase.

"Great, we can meet downstairs in 10 minutes. We can go to this pub I heard about."

"Yeah sounds good with me, I'll meet you in the lobby,"

"Alright, see ya,"

I hang up and set my phone down, looking down at my clothes I am wearing and change into something a little more casual rather than comfier. So, instead I go for light blue jeans and a loose shirt.

I don't really care to do my hair because it falls into a meson matter what I do to it, so I just push my fingers through the mess and grab my phone and key card, shoving them into my pockets.

" Hey, ready for a later dinner?" Louis jumps up from the lobby couch and walkover to me once I get down.

"Ready as ever, I'm starving."

We head out from the hotel and onto the street. It's dark out so we don't have any issues with trying to cover up or hide out. "So, you've never been to this said pub?" I ask, looking around the city.

"No, not me. A couple my mates have been though, said it's very nice and cozy. So why not give it a try." Louis shrugs, shoving his hands into his pockets and looking up at me with a smile.

I smile back.

The walk was only a few minutes, getting there before it got even darker. There was light music playing in the background, not too loud, but loud enough hear the words.
