Louis' Cab | night ten

What's mine is mine,
Don't ask for more.
Even a rusty old dime,
May make you walk out the door.

Things are sentimental,
it doesn't matter if it's old
Although I am indenial,
such thing is mine to hold.

Harry: (rummaging through Louis' things)

Louis: Stop touching those.

Harry: (continues to rummage) Why? Are you scared I'd spot something I'm not supposed to see?

Louis: No.

Harry: (chuckles) Then, let me be.

Louis: [silence]

Harry: (finds something) This necklace is cute, where'd you get it?

Louis: (groans) None of your business.

Harry: Funny! Don't tell me you stole it. (pretends to be startled)

Louis: Why would I? I don't even need one.

Harry: Can I have it?

Louis: No.

Harry: But why? Is it your girlfriend's?

Louis: I don't have one. I'm gay.

Harry: (grins) So can I have it?

Louis: I said no.

Harry: Please.

Louis: No.

Harry: Pwease! (makes puppy face)

Louis: NO!

Harry: C'mon, who even owns this? Your mum?

Louis: No.

Harry: Which means I can have it?

Louis: AAAH! (fumes) What the hell can't you understand on the word NO?

Harry: Bloody hell! (puts back necklace) Fine! I should be the one asking you that question. I told you no multiple times too but you never listen! See how agitating it is?

Louis: [silence]

Harry: [silence]

Louis: [silence]

Harry: [silence]

Louis: [silence]

Harry: I'm sorry.

Louis: (sighs) Would you promise me you'd stop touching my things?

Harry: Yes sir. I'm so sorry.

Louis: [silence]

Harry: You still mad?

Louis: No, love. I'm sorry too. You know... for not listening to you. (sighs/eyes darted to the road)

Harry: (blushes) Love?

Louis: [silence] (feels guilt)

Harry: Louis? (pauses) Who owns the necklace?

Louis: If you figure out who owns it, then you can keep it.

Harry: (glances at Louis) Do I know who?

Louis: (nods) Yes, you've always known who.
