"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.
Louis Tomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson
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.
Lottie Tomlinson @LottTomlinson
@Louis_Tomlinson stfu. There not some tween bop ground either. Do some research, you'll like them. Also, you're buying me merch
Louis Tomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson
@LottTomlinson They're* and no
Louis rolled his eyes at his sister. He knows the fan base. A bunch of girls who scream and cry and probably want to fuck them. He wasn't into that type of stuff. He was about to click out of the app when he got a new notification.
Harry Styles @Harry_Styles
@Louis_Tomlinson I know this little "tween bop" group. They're pretty damn cool if you ask me :)
Louis clicked on the lad's page after his phone started blowing up with more notifications or people freaking out about the tweet. He was a member of the band.
Louis Tomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson
@Harry_Styles Oh really now?
Harry Styles @Harry_Styles
@Louis_Tomlinson really really. In fact, I think the youngest one is the coolest. I think you might like him
Louis Tomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson
@Harry_Styles you think so? I'll admit, he is pretty cute
Harry Styles @Harry_Styles
@Louis_Tomlinson Now you're making me blush. Between you and me, I think he thinks that you're pretty good looking yourself.
Louis just smiled before opening up a new tab on his laptop and searching the group. He read up about their history and how they came to be, pretty impressed with their success. He looked up Harry next, curious about the lad. He saw that he was 22 years old, which made him feel a little better about calling him cute knowing that he wasn't being a total creep. He also noticed that he was openly gay. Louis nodded to himself, proud of the guy despite not knowing him for being open about himself and unashamed.
Louis did a little more stalking before realizing that he should probably stop as his browser history how has the words 'Harry Styles' at the beginning of everything. Oops. He'll delete that later.
Louis finally closed out of everything, getting himself settled into bed. He was working on turning his notifications off as his phone was blowing up. It was mainly of a bunch of teen girls following him now, some calling him 'sexy' which made him cringe. Other's freaking out about Harry "flirting" with him, and some sending hate to him. He just rolled his eyes.
A new Tweet popped up, this time from another member of the band.
Niall Horan @NiallHoran
@Harry_Styles @Louis_Tomlinson Don't listen to the young frog. He is by far the least cool of the band
Louis smiled and favorited the tweet.
Harry Styles @Harry_Styles
@NiallHoran @Louis_Tomlinson Why are you so mean? Don't embarrass me in front of my new friend. And Louis, please don't encourage him haha
Louis Tomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson
@Harry_Styles Friends eh?
Harry Styles @Harry_Styles
@Louis_Tomlinson best friends. All the love x
Louis just rolled his eyes, but couldn't help the smile that found its way onto his face. Then his little envelope showed he had a new DM
I suppose we should formally meet if we're going to continue this friendship. How many of you are coming to the show, I'll send backstage passes xx
Louis stared at his screen. Was this kid serious?
Ummm, I'm taking my four younger sisters. You're joking, right?
Nope. Totally serious. Give me your email :)
louist91
Not even a minute later his email popped up. He opened it up to see 5 backstage passes for him to download and print.
I uh, thanks? You really didn't have to. I just...why?
I don't know. You seem nice. Maybe if you meet us you'll see we aren't so awful XD
My sisters are going to have heart attacks you know that right? Haha
Been told that before. We know how to deal with the endless stream of tears don't worry :)
Is it okay if I tweet about this? Let me sisters know?
Sure xx
Louis Tomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson
@LottTomlinson @FizzTomlinson @DaisyTomlinson @PheobeTomlinson Soooo, @Harry_Styles just sent me backstage passes for us.
Lottie Tomlinson @LottTomlinson
@Louis_Tomlinson Don't joke with me like that
Harry Styles @Harry_Styles
@LottTomlinson @Louis_Tomlinson He's not, love. Can't wait to meet you girls. All the love xx
Louis tried to keep up with the endless tweets of his sisters all freaking out and caps locking everything, watching as Harry tweeted them each and was so kind to them. Louis had to turn his phone off as everything was going off. Texts, tweets, calls, he was sure his phone might break. He'll deal with his sisters tomorrow.
After plugging his phone in the charger and turning his alarm clock on, Louis finally managed to get himself settled into bed. Weirdly dreaming about this Harry lad and what he might be like in person.
XX
A/N: Sooo, what do you think?
