Harry's POV:

I didn't realise when I had drifted off to sleep, but i suddenly woke up when my phone rang...it was Gideon.

When did he get my number? I think picking up the call..

"Hello?"

"Hey Harry! Where are you mate?"

And then it struck me, I was invited to a party. I don't respond thinking what should I say, but before I could say anything, he speaks,

"Were you sleeping?"

"Uh- yeah, yeah."

"I figured... considering how deep and scratchy ur voice sounded when u picked the call"

I don't know why, but his words had gotten me to sit up on the bed and clear my throat.

"Oh no! Don't do that! I like hearing your deep sleepy voice"

"Uhm- well, I will be at your house in a few-"

"Were you sleeping alone?" He asks, interrupting me. What kind of a question is that? Ofcourse I was sleeping alone!

I hesitantly respond, "uh- yeah. I mean I don't have a roommate or anything, it's just a single room, so-"

"What are you wearing tonight?" He interrupted me again.

I hadn't thought about the outfit yet, and it's not like I had much to go on with. So, I just told him that I will wear something casual but party appropriate. For a moment, he doesn't respond and I was about to hang up when he spoke again,

"Would you wear your glasses? I would really like if u show up to my party wearing those glasses". His tone wasn't demanding but purely requesting. I try to tell him that the glasses aren't permanent, they are just a precaution, but a squeaky 'please' from his side, convinced me going to the party wearing them.

"If I got bullied because of my glasses in your party, I swear I am not gonna let you off the hook easily!" I sternly state to him.

He laughs at that and says,

"First of all, don't worry, u won't get bullied, because everyone is going to be tripping over u. And secondly, I am hoping u would not let me off the hook that easy, 'cause then I will have to take matters into my own hands. Be at the junction in 20, i will pick you up."
And then he hangs up the call.

I will not lie, his words went straight to my dick. I don't know if he was intentionally trying to make it sound so exciting or was it just me, overthinking!? Nevertheless, his words had gotten me a little uneasy down there. For some reason, I didn't want to go to the party at all, scared he meant what he said, in that way. But i also wanted to go there because I wanted him to mean it in exactly that way. It's a complicated decision. I am not a virgin but I didn't want just a hookup. But I wasn't also ready for a real relationship. And when my eyes fell over the glasses on the nightstand, I couldn't help but think, what's their obsession with me wearing glasses!? Do i really look that good in them? Is that why both of them are going out of their mind watching me wear those glasses!?

I walked over to my closet and picked an semi-casual outfit to wear. I brushed my teeth, had a quick shower and then, got ready for the party. Usually I would not have styled my hair, but my gut told me that this night could turn really special for me and I should look the part for it to happen. So, I just damply styled my hair with a non sticky hair gel and set them naturally, no quiff, nothing big, just side parted with my curls set. I grabbed the glasses and sprayed some perfume on my neck and wrists. I looked at myself once again before leaving.

As I was walking down, I heard the main door open and close. I assumed it would be Ms. Jane or Dad but it was Louis and he...he didn't look like he usually did. His hair were dishevelled, his shirt was wrinkled, his cheeks were dabbed a light pink and well, he looked like he had snogged someone. It must be that girl who was extremely chatty with him in class, i think to myself as I was standing at the foot of the stairs waiting for him to disappear so that I don't have to talk to him. To my horror, he noticed me.
