Louis Pov.
I woke up today in a rush, realizing I slept through my alarm and was now late. I mean it wasn't really my fault. It was the dumb new kid who was invading my brain all night. I don't know what it is about him but I couldn't stop thinking about him. I'm sure it's a normal thing that happens to all guys when they meet someone new. I mean there was nothing too special about him.
I get up out of bed trying to be as quiet as possible, praying my dad was still asleep. He would kill me if he knew I was late. I threw on some grey sweatpants, an oversized long sleeve and my signature beanie. I don't think I've gone a day without it since my mom passed. It's kind of like a protective thing for me. I try to brush the thought of my mom out of my head before school. People don't need to see me emotional. I mean who knows what they would think. Nobody knows about my mom and I planned to keep it that way.
I get on the bus and just like every day, Eleanor is waiting and holding a seat for me. A part of me was anticipated to see Harr- I mean Eleanor! My girlfriend of course...Who else? I kiss her on the cheek and get settled in. Soon enough guess who walks in. The curly boy who won't get out of my head. We make eye contact as soon as he steps foot onto the bus. He smiled at me dimples and everything. I looked down to try and stop the blush from spreading on my cheeks. I shoved my thoughts down and listen to some music until we got to school.
Harry's pov.
As I stepped onto the bus, I saw Louis eyes shoot up at me. I smiled thinking he would return it, but he just looked down. I tried to hide the disappoint on my face and sat down in the front.
When we pull into the school parking lot I get up from my seat when all the sudden i'm falling to the floor. I feel a hand grip me pulling me back up. I look up to be met face to face with the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen. Louis. I had decided blue was my new favorite color. Our eyes were interlocked and it was like nothing around us was important. It was just Louis Louis Louis. A cough from behind him pulled us out of our daze as he moved away awkwardly. "Thanks" I say, as he replies with a "yup" and scurries off the bus. Part of me was sad our little moment was over, but we did have to get into the school.
The whole rest of the day whenever I would look at Louis he seemed quite out of it. I tried to brush it off, thinking I was reading too much into it. I met up with Niall write before lunch. He was a really funny guy, but didn't seem to have too many friends. I thought this was odd considering he was a very outgoing person. It's okay with me though, i've always liked to keep my circle small. Over the years I've realized the fewer people you trust, the less can break it.
I go on with my day until I see Louis standing by his locker. He looked kind of sad, so I worked up the courage to ask him if something was wrong. It was one way to start up a conversation. As I walk up though, I see that girl run up to him. That one girl that is always sitting next to him on the bus and scowling at me. I didn't know what her problem was but I also didn't care too much. I was kinda mad she ruined our "almost" conversation but I figured there will be more opportunities to strike up a conversation. Maybe I would try tomorrow.
