"Louis please I'm begging you," Jay whined.

"Why can't you just take them? I have papers to grade," Louis said, hopping onto the counter, taking a sip of his juice.

Jay paused for a moment before looking down. "Because," She looked around, Louis could tell she was nervous. "I have a date," She finally admitted.

Louis furrowed his eyebrows. "Excuse me?"

Jay sighed. "He's a co-worker. We've been paired together for a few projects now and I don't know. We just clicked. He asked me out last week and with the girls having their concert I thought it was the perfect opportunity."

Louis just stared at his Mum. Don't get him wrong, he's happy she's getting back out there and all, but it's just weird for him. He loves his Mum and just wants what's best for her. "What's his name?"

"Dan. He's really nice and loves the girls."

"He's been over before?"

"Yeah. He came over to pick up some papers one night and I invited him to stay for dinner."

Louis rubbed his temples. "Fine. I'll take the girls, but you owe me big time." Louis jumped off the counter to hug his Mum who was smiling with excitement.

"Thank you so much, Louis."

"I've got to stop visiting," He laughed, his Mum smacking his arm. Louis pulled back and sighed. "I really should get back home before it gets too late. I have to finish putting together a worksheet for the kids."

"Alrighty. I'll let the girls know and text you all of the information. Drive safe," She said, walking Louis to the door.

Louis loved his family dearly. He tried to stop by as often as he could. Despite being 24 years old, he's still a huge mama's boy and likes to be around her as often as he can. However, it seems that every time he does come around, they all need something from him. Not that he minds, he loves helping out his family, but sometimes it would be nice to just visit and leave.

His Mum got his four younger sisters tickets to see this band called One Direction. Louis has never heard of them. His sisters gush about them a lot, but Louis just usually tunes them out. Of course, he should've seen himself getting roped into all of this. His Mum did literally plan a date for when they were gone, knowing her son would cave. Louis sighed, it is what it is and he just hopes he'll survive the mass of screaming girls over a stupid boy band.

By the time he got home, he was exhausted. He knew he should really get a worksheet ready for his class tomorrow, but he's thinking it might be a movie day instead. He was an English teacher for seniors. They didn't want to do work just as much as he did right now. He's sure he can think of some kind of educational movie for them to watch. Maybe. He might cave and just watch something funny with them like he did last time.

Louis flopped onto his bed and pulled out his phone to scroll through Twitter. He wasn't Twitter famous or anything, but did have a decent following. He was quite popular when he was in school so he had many of them, and apparently, some people think he's attractive and has followed him after finding him on Instagram. Then you obviously have the chunk of random people who just follow you because of your retweets.

Somehow got roped into taking my little sisters to see this @onedirection kill me now. Does anyone know this little tween bop group?

Louis sent the tweet out and continued to scroll for a little while, randomly retweeting things and sending dm's back to a few friends.
