Chapter 28

                                    

                                          
It's Tuesday and finally, tomorrow is Halloween. I have always loved Halloween. It is probably my favorite holiday. Halloween or the fourth of July. I can't really choose. Two holidays where everything isn't focused around family. I have always hung out with my friends and partied. I wonder what this Halloween will bring. Can I get drunk without Niall getting mad? He didn't seem to care that I got drunk and high this last weekend. I could just always get drunk and see what happens. It's always better to ask forgiveness then to ask for permission. Wait, do I even have to ask Niall for permission? Technically we aren't dating, but Niall said I was his. Even though that is sexist and such a pigheaded thing to say its nice to have someone who wants me that badly. I will just take one drink and see how Niall reacts. 
                          
"Stop thinking about Niall and stop stirring the funnel cake batter." Louis yells, pulling me from my thoughts.
                          
"I'm not thinking about Niall." I quietly say, but Harry and Rae are already listening and rolling their eyes. 
                          
"And I'm superman," Louis jokes. "Anyways, what I was trying to ask you was, what are you being for Halloween?" 
                          
"I don't know. Lacey and Rae have it planned. I think we are going to be Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders or something." I shrug my shoulders.
                          
"We changed our minds, but it is a surprise. You boys have to wait until tomorrow." Rae cheerfully let's us know.
                          
"I'm surprised you aren't going to be a sexy nurse." Louis jokes, but I look at him with a confused expression. "Niall thinks your a good nurse." Rae and Harry bust out in laughter. I stare at Louis. Challenging him with my eyes. "You are such a good friend. Staying by his side all day Sunday. Making him food, getting pain killers for him, and snuggling up to him watching movies."
                          
"That was almost two weeks ago! Get over it." I raise my voice and shake my head.
                          
The Sunday after my picnic with Niall, I woke up to a text from him saying he could barely move. His ankle had tripled in size and was covered in a nasty purple, blue, and blackish bruise. I spent the day at his dorm taking care of him. Something I have never done for anyone. I told Harry to keep everyone, including Brett away. We were having a good day until everyone showed up. Niall and I were laying on the couch when everyone barged in. I sat up, but it was obvious what we had been doing moments ago. Louis has teased me everyday since. It's been a week and a half. 
                          
"Why aren't you that friendly with me?" Louis teases some more.
                          
"You do realize that we have had sex, right?" As I say this I watch as Louis, Rae, and Harry's mouths drop open.
                          
Louis goes to say something, but closes his mouth. There is a silence lingering, but it isn't uncomfortable. I smirk as Louis looks to Harry for help. This is the first time I have been able to leave Louis speechless. Louis looks back at me with a devilish smile. My victory is short lived. 
                          
"I'm surprised you haven't had sex with Niall yet. Maybe you aren't as hot as you think you are." Louis smiles as Rae gasps.
                          
I do the only thing I can possibly think of. I pull the spatula out of the mixing bowl and flick it at Louis. The funnel cake batter splashes all over Louis' nice Adidas shirt. I laugh instantly as I notice some in his hair and some on his cheek. Louis looks at the bowl and then at me. He takes three big steps and grabs the bowl from me. 
                          
"Louis, don't-" I am cut off by the cake batter being dumped on my head. "I am going to kill you." 
                          
Louis runs out of the room and I follow behind him. I hear our professor, Mrs. Jack, yelling at us, but we ignore her as we leave the building. Louis loops around a tree and as I get close he starts sprinting back into the building. I am so out of shape that I am lagging behind him. When I catch up to him he is standing outside our classroom. He is frozen and I worry that our teacher is pissed. As I walk up next to him my mouth drops open. The classroom is in complete chaos. The cake batter is being flung everywhere. Our teacher throws an egg at the back of a student's head. What did Louis and I start and miss?
