Its lunch time now, Louis' sitting outside like he usually does on a bench reading when Harry plops down next to him. "Why are you so quiet?" He asks, making the other boy jump slightly, scaring him. He stares down at his lap and shrugs. Harry isn't taken aback by the lack of response from the boy. It just makes him more curious. "You know it's not polite to ignore people when they're talking to you." He simply says, hoping to get something out of the boy in front of him. It isn't like he has other things to do since his friends are just debating about something that involves girls and football and he isn't really into that.
"I-I..." Louis tries to choke out. He just doesn't want to talk, simple as that. He blushes furiously. Louis doesn't like his voice and no one else seems to like hearing it so he has no reason to ever talk. Louis looks into Harry's eyes and looks down at the ground.
Harry nearly smirks as the boy becomes a stuttering and blushing mess. It seems he's really shy and that intrigues Harry. "By the way my name's Harry. I'm afraid I didn't catch your name in class..." He trails off hoping that the boy would at least say his name.
"L-Louis" he chokes out. He smiles at Harry weakly.
A big grin takes place on Harry's face as he hears the boy's voice again. "You know you should talk more, your voice is nice." He says and Louis' face becomes redder at every word. He is pleased he can make the boy blush without effort.
Louis smiles at Harry, his face as red as an apple. He wants to say thanks but he doesn't want to speak. He frowns at Harry, he wishes he could read his mind. As the bell rings, Harry goes back inside waving a hand at Louis. He has to get ready for his last classes but he's determined to spend another lunch time with Louis.
Louis walks to his next class, thoughts of Harry never leaving his mind.
