Chapter 05 (edited)

Louis clenches his eyes shut, he felt incredibly guilty. His report card was in his bag right now but he didn't tell his parents yet. Usually, you'd be happy to get your report card if you were smart like Louis, but he knew that he got at least one B+.

That meant no dinner.

"Louis, will you come down here?" He hears his mothers voice. He let out a deep breath, grabbing his report card and stuffing it into his pocket. He hurries down the stairs, hearing his mother call again, voice getting impatient.

He runs to the table, seeing both his parents there. He sits down opposite his mother, seeing his father was on a tablet.

"We got an email from the school, saying that you've gotten your report cards?" His father says and Louis nods, clenching his fist.

"Ahh," He yelps as his father grabs his ear harshly, twisting it.

"Why didn't you give it to us when you got home. And don't you dare say that you forgot!" Troy says, letting go.

Louis' eyes fill with tears.

"I-I'm so sorry father, I was scared," He whimpers out, blinking hurriedly. Louis quickly takes out his report card, placing it in front of himself.

His father huffs, grabbing the card and opening it, his mother moving closer to see it. His father cleared his throat. Louis knew that his father would read out his marks, emphasizing on the worse marks.

"Maths- A+, Chemistry-A+, Biology- A, Physics- B+, Spanish A+, History- B+," Louis stopped listening, clenching his eyes shut. He got two B's, he was officially dead.

After his father was done, he put down the card, not saying anything before standing up and walking to his room. His mother looks at Louis as he bites his lip.

"We are disappointed in you, son. Stop doing that, it looks suggestive," Louis instantly lets go of his lip.

"Don't bother coming down for dinner today or tomorrow," She says, before walking away.

As if on command, Louis' stomach growled. He knew that his parents wouldn't give him any lunch money so he would try to borrow from Liam or Niall.

The next day, Louis woke up, starving. He got ready, taking out his navy blue pants and a white shirt. He walked downstairs, seeing that there was no breakfast ready for him. He frowned before hopping into the car, ignoring the driver's sympathetic look when his stomach growls.

He gets to school 10 minutes before the second bell, seeing that Liam and Niall were already by his locker. He grinned at them, waving, before walking over there, grabbing his books for the day.

It was Lunch, Niall or Liam didn't have any extra money and he knew that they wouldn't share because of the dramatically small portions. He rested his chin on his palm, ignoring the terrible feeling in his stomach.

Niall was telling him about some girl who he liked but he wasn't really listening. He felt a presence next to him as he turned, seeing Harry to his right. Niall suddenly shuts up, taking his phone out of his pocket and awkwardly just sat there.

"Yes?" Louis asked Harry, ignoring that pretty much half the cafeteria was staring at them.

"Why aren't you eating?" Harry asked and Louis frowned before answering.

"No particular reason,"

"I'm not stupid Louis. I can see the expression on your face," Harry says and Louis sighs.

"It's just that I didn't get any money cause of my report card, now can you leave me alone?"

Louis says, an evident tone of annoyance in his voice.

"Well someone gets grumpy when they haven't eaten," Louis ignores him, drawing imaginary patterns with his finger.

He hears Harry leave but doesn't turn to look. He then sits back, cracking his fingers. A look of surprise covers his face, when he sees half a sandwich on a lunch tray, a small note next to it.

He ignored the fluttering feeling in his stomach as his eyes scan the note, looking over to see Harry staring straight at him. Louis quickly turns his head, turning left to hide his blush cheeks. But as he sees Harry smirk from the side of his eyes, he knows that Harry saw him.

Louis rolled his eyes, wondering what Harry meant by what he wrote.

'You owe me later.'
