I had one more exam to get my credits for Psych 101 and I spent the next day, Saturday bumming it and studying hard. I had always wanted to be a child Psychologist since I was in Year 5. Annie was at her desk in her room designing a fashion sketch for her final. She had a great sense of fashion and designed her own clothes since she learned how to sew.
I couldn't help think of Louis. I was still completely amazed I had forgot who he was. He just seemed so down to Earth. If not for Annie, I probably would have never figured it out.
I was in the middle of writing a timed practice exam when he texted me. I decided to ignore it until I finished. Thirty minutes later, my brain was completely fried and I needed food. I almost forgot about Louis' text until my phone light started blinking again. It said "Hey, what's up?"
I replied "Oh, not much. Just studying. you?" and with that, I continued reading my textbook.
He texted back a few minutes later. "Would you like to get dinner tonight?"
Suddenly I was nervous. I wasn't thinking of him as "Louis Tomlinson from One Direction," he was still just "Louis, the cutie from the club with the bright trousers." But I was really interested in him. He was funny and adorable.
I sent back "Sure! Where?"
He replied immediately "The Ivy at seven?"
"That sounds good." It sounded amazing, but I didn't want to seem too eager.
"I'll pick you up." I sent him my address and told him I had to go so I could study.
I couldn't believe that in five hours I would be having my first date with Louis Tomlinson. And The Ivy? How fancy!
Louis' POV
I was smiling when I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. I had a date tonight with a beautiful girl. And Penelope wasn't like the other girls, I was just Louis to her. I loved it. Just a few hours away, and I was already excited. I replayed our conversation from the night before in my mind. So she studied at oxford? For a psych degree. She's so intriguing.
"So I hear you've got a hot date tonight, Louis," Harry said with a wink as he walked by. "Does she like carrots?"
"I don't think she knows about the carrot thing, she didn't know I was a part of One Direction, she's different," Louis said a bit defensively. He drank some of his water and Harry just stared.
"She doesn't... does she live under a rock? Jeez your face is everywhere, Lou. I bet she's cute though," Harry said with an exaggerated wink. Louis turned a little red.
"I thought you loved me Louis!" Harry suddenly yelled.
"Louis, you cheater!" Liam walked over and grabbed Harry's face. "Look at this adorable lad! How could you let him go?" Liam teased.
"Ow, let go of me Liam!" Harry whined.
"But those dimples! And that curly hair!" Liam reminded.
Harry winked. "He'll come back. They always come back!" He screamed obnoxiously.
"But what are you going to do when the papz start following you around?" Liam asked seriously.
I thought. "You're right! Oh shit, they'll scare her off!"
"She'll have to notice eventually. Tell her tonight. You can't have two different lives just for a girl you met last night." Liam was right. I had to come clean. She'd understand, right?
"Well, I've got to get ready."
"What time are you picking her up?" Harry wondered.
"Seven."
He looked at his Rolex watch. "Lou, it's only three thirty!"
