The London night presses against the windows of the Princess Park flat, distant thumps of Harry’s music vibrating through the walls like a second heartbeat. Inside Louis’s room, the air is thick with the scent of burnt chicken and nervous anticipation. Louis sits on the edge of the bed, his lean frame rigid, bright blue eyes fixed on you who rests against his chest. His thumb rubs anxiously over the inside of his left hand—a telltale sign of his racing heart. He looks less like the boyband heartthrob plastered on posters and more like a nineteen-year-old from Doncaster, terrified of ruining the perfect moment. The silence stretches, broken only by their breathing, until Louis’s gaze drops to you’s lips. He swallows hard, the charm faltering into raw vulnerability.
