"Okay you've done step one, now we move onto step two," Louis informed standing in cafeteria with Harry by his side. Harry raised his eyebrow at Louis.

"Is that what comes after step one? Shit, here I was prepared for step twelve," Harry shot back grinning cheekily. Louis punched him playfully in the arm while rolling his eyes.

"Keep this smart ass streak and you won't make it up to step twelve," Louis replied. Harry shrugged but knew he wasn't going to stop. Louis wouldn't drop him now, it was too late since people were starting to notice.

"Whatever. What's the step?" Harry asked curiously. It was a lie if Harry said he didn't get excited each time he heard Louis and him had to do something new. Ever since he thought about kissing Louis, he couldn't stop thinking about it so now everytime they have to try something new, Harry tells himself that it's that. Harry knows he isn't though, he probably just does it to make him feel better.

"Tell everyone we're dating... ready?" Louis wondered grabbing Harry's arm tugging him towards the cafeteria line. Harry quickly stopped them and frowned.

"Wait, wait, wait. I don't know what to do," Harry confessed. Louis rolled his eyes playfully before smiling and pretending to push his hair behind his back like a diva.

"Watch and learn," Louis smirked before he moved to the cafeteria line. There were two girls in front of Louis in the line and Louis nodded his head towards them and mouthed 'look cute' before tapping on one of the girl's shoulders. Harry frowned since he didn't know where he was going with this when the girl turned to Louis and raised her eyebrow.

"Sorry to bother you, I was just wondering if you thought my boyfriend was cute. He's a bit insecure and I want to prove something," Louis told her. The girl smiled at Louis.

"It's not a problem at all, where is he?" The girl questioned and Louis pointed over towards where Harry was. Louis smiled and waved at Harry and Harry did the same as if it was instinct and he had just forgotten about the girl. The girl laughed then turned back to Louis.

"What do you think?" Louis asked smiling. The girl smiled back.

"He's gorgeous, you're so lucky," The girl said. Louis could see that she now couldn't stop looking over at Harry. It made Louis proud that he had recieved someone's approval even if Harry wasn't even his real boyfriend.

When he had first told Zayn that he and Tyler had a thing, Zayn cracked the shits saying that he needed to end it, it wasn't until weeks later that Zayn started liking them together since he saw how much Tyler actually cared for Louis but this stranger didn't even know Harry and she gave him approval.

That only reminded Louis that he needed to talk to Zayn and tell him a lie that he broke up with Tyler for Harry because the secret is better kept when hardly anyone knows and people would ask Zayn so he needs to make it believeable.

"Careful, he's mine," Louis joked making the girl laugh again and agree with him. He's mine. The two words made Harry all warm inside. Louis came back a couple a seconds after smiling at Harry with a chocolate milk. Louis took out money and gave it Harry before pushing him towards the cafeteria to say that it was his turn now. Harry gulped and moved into the line.

He was thinking of ways to bring it up but he couldn't come up with anything. He sighed and grabbed his strawberry milk trying not to look too displeased with himself.

"Hey, you're Harry, aren't you?" A girl was in the line behind him wondered. Harry nodded with a frown confused on how she knew his name and why she cared because most people didn't.

"Yeah, that's me. Why?" Harry questioned curiously.

"You're dating Louis Tomlinson aren't you? That's what I've heard at least," She inquired raising her eyebrow. Harry frowned and went to say no before he remembered. This girl practically answered his prayers, she deserved a fruit basket. Remind Harry to get one.

"Yeah, that I am," Harry smiled at her sweetly. She returned the same gesture before sighing in content. It looked like she was about to squeal from excitement but she didn't. She really deserves that fruit basket.

"I thought so. I can just see that you guys like each other, it's so cute. Please stay together," The girl pleaded with puppy eyes. Harry laughed at her but couldn't help but think about what she had said.

Her words haunted Harry's mind because he knows that most likely a week after the dinner on Saturday or something that he and Louis will have to break their deal so that Tyler can be brought into the picture.

"Thank you," Harry replied with a small smile before he exited the line and walked over to Louis who was smiling at him. Louis clapped for him and gave him a quick hug.

"I'm so proud that I won't even make fun of your drink choice," Louis informed with narrowed eyes focusing on the strawberry milk in Harry's hands.

Louis had basically nearly drank all of his chocolate milk already because he was a chocolate milk freak but then again isn't nearly everyone these days?

"Oh, shut up," Harry said before the bell rang. Louis and Harry had their next class together so they walked together to their class. It was Harry's favourite class, English. The only bad thing about it was the teacher. Mrs Fray was about the most rudest teacher that Harry had ever had. She liked to give them homework, send them to the office for no apparent reason, she just wanted to punish them because she said she could. Louis and Harry were just lucky that they had each other.

When they walked into the classroom, they both noticed that the class was standing at the back of the classroom.

"There is going to be a new seating plan. I am not happy about the last one we had," Mrs Fray crossed her arms in annoyance. The class including Louis and Harry groaned at her words. It felt as if every class, there was a new seating plan because Mrs Fray has major trust issues.

"Do we have to, Miss?" Jessica, one of Louis and Harry's classmates wondered. Mrs Fray narrowed her eyes in a glare at her before huffing.

"Yes, you do. Some people were misbehaving greatly last lesson," Mrs Fray stated. She sent a glance towards Louis and shook her head in disgust. Louis and Mrs Fray had the worst relationship, every single lesson they would argue but in all truth, Louis didn't deserve it most of the time. The other times he was just bored and he needed something to happen. Louis just rolled his eyes at her with a small smirk on his lips. Mrs Fray began calling out names and seating the class in their new assigned seats.

It appeared she was now at the end of her list because there were two seats left at the back and Louis and Harry were the only ones left.

"Styles, Tomlinson, sit here, please," Mrs Fray commanded and the two did what she said but not before they smiled at each other, glad that they were able to sit next to each other. They both just hoped that she wouldn't change it again soon. Mrs Fray eyed them both suspiciously, "Make sure he does his work, Harry, otherwise you both will have to join me for detention."

"Because that sounds fair," Louis laughed dryly. Mrs Fray narrowed her eyes at him and Louis grinned at her before she turned away to teach the class. Normally she would have probably sent him to the office for speaking to her like that but maybe she was in a good mood.

Okay, maybe she's just ran out of slips to give them to send them to the office since the latter is more likely.

"Oi, do you like being in trouble or something?" Harry questioned with a raised eyebrow. Louis laughed quietly to Harry careful not to alarm Mrs Fray.

"I don't mind it. You know what's funny?" Louis wondered. Harry shook his head but gestured for him to continue, "I hate the teacher Mrs Fray but I love the band The Fray. Where did she go wrong?" Harry rolled his eyes at him jokingly before sighing and laying his head on the table. He was so tired and Mrs Fray's boring lesson certainly wasn't helping. Not to mention, Louis was combing his fingers through Harry's hair and it was so soothing that it could put him to sleep.

"Sleepy?" Louis questioned making Harry nod and hit his head on the desk. Louis giggled at him before Harry mumbled something against the desk, Louis frowned and told him to repeat it.

"I said make her shut up so I can sleep," Harry grumbled making Louis coo at him before smirking. Harry didn't see this though as his hand was still on the desk.

"You know I can right?"

"Please don't. I don't want you to get suspended... I was joking," Harry replied. Louis pouted as if he was generally upset with this news. Louis just really liked doing stuff to mess with her. Call him a bad student because that's exactly what he is and he didn't really care.

"Damn it," Louis whined making Harry laugh and lift his head off the desk. They then spoke about random stuff like what was your favourite colour and other thingd like that since they realised they didn't know that much about each other. It felt like it wasn't that long until the bell rang, they grabbed their belongings and sighed in relief when Mrs Fray left the classroom to go back to the staffroom.

"You want a ride?" Louis asked. Harry nodded before slinging his bag around his shoulder and followed Louis out into the hallway. Louis laced his fingers with Harry's as they passed students down the hall, they all watched the couple as Louis and Harry walked past. It was strange for Harry.

Normally no one gave a shit about who he dated but Louis was popular and everyone cared about who Louis thought was good enough to date so that just meant everyone was curious about Harry. Some students even smiled and waved at Harry when he walked by, someone even said his name and Harry didn't even know the person. he felt important, he felt... wanted.

Louis and Harry had finally reached the car and they both jumped in and began to banter over what radio channel was better than the other. Louis argued that it was his car but Harry shot back that it was his life and he didn't want to live it by listening to Louis' shit music. Louis was impressed with how quick he said it so Louis let Harry pick the channel.

The car slowed down before Louis parked outside Harry's house, Louis turned to face Harry with a smile.

"Tomorrow night is the dinner remember?" Louis raised his eyebrow making Harry nod at him and take a deep breathe. He was worried just thinking about it. What if he stuffed up and blew their cover? Harry just really wanted to help Louis.

"Yeah, I'll remember," Harry replied leaning over to press a kiss to Louis' cheek.

"See you tomorrow," Louis said as Harry got out the car. Harry poked his head through the open window when he closed his car door.

"I'll be there," Harry informed before sending a quick smile and wave and making his way into his house. He hoped everything went okay tomorrow.
