first date with louis ???👀👀🙌🏾🙌🏾
do you like me? nonidol!louis x fem!reader
in which louis awkwardly blurted out that he liked you one day while playing mario kart. you tell him that you feel the same. so obviously that means you'll date, right? wrong. you insist on him bringing you on a date first and seeing what happens.
or where you like louis just as much as he likes you, but that doesn't mean you can't have your fun, right?
fluff, teenagers in love :3, not proofread!!!!
notes GUYS JOIN MY TL I BEG🙏🙏and yes im spreading my mint choco propaganda bc its js too good🤤🤤🤤 and yes im spreading my hate for sweets propaganda as well because why the Fuck does an ice cream shop have to smell so sweet. and no daisy slander will be tolerated thats my girl❤️🩹❤️🩹
“lou no! everyone knows that daisy is the better princess!” you said while reaching over louis lap to grab another handful of pretzels.
“what?!" he practically yelled, “that is so not true! it's the other way around!!"
“so you're trying to tell me that PEACH is the better princess?" you questioned.
"yes! it's the truth and everyone," he made some extravagant gesture with his hands trying to show you what he meant by everyone, "knows it!”
"you're nuts,” you say throwing another pretzel in your mouth, "you and ‘everyone’” you exaggerate the word everyone while putting air quotations around it.
"for a girl so pretty, you're opinions are so wrong." moments after he realized what he said he started panicking.
how could he of said that? right now too? he had this all planned out; he was going to bring you to the ice cream shop you two love so much and confess there, not here in his dingy old basement while playing mario kart.
“i- i didn't mean it like that! i meant like a friend! wait no that's worse. you are pretty, like really pretty but…" louis’ rambles were cut short by the feeling of your hand on his shoulder.
“lou?" you said in your usual sweet tone. god that nickname, louis usually hates it from anybody but you.
“y-yeah?" he said. he's sure that his face is the same color as the red hoodie he was wearing.
"do you like me?” you said, still in that unphased sweet tone.
"well yeah but, i don't know. it's dumb, and it wasn't supposed to go like this i had it all planned out.” you started giggling at that.
"lou it's okay,” your hand moved from his shoulder on to the nape of his neck, "i like you too.”
"oh okay! that's good cause um, yeah! wow okay!" he was scrambling to find something to say but his mind was blank. but how could it not be when the girl he's been crushing on for months now said she likes him back? it was silent for a few moments while louis tried to compose himself.
“okay well like i said,” he took a deep breath and continued, "i had this all planned out but that kinda got ruined." you were still playing with his hair as he continued. “y/n can i be your boyfriend?" he said and immediately looked anywhere but your eyes. it looked like his pants were seemingly the most important thing in that room the way he was eyeing them down.
"woahhhh buddy,” you said while giggling, “you're not even gonna take me on a date first?!" you playfully swatted his chest, “i thought you were better than that lou!" and that leads you to know. getting ready for your first date with louis.
obviously he's an attractive guy. you'd be blind if you didn't admit that.but that never really got in the way of your dynamic. he was just so fun to be around that you pushed your feelings deep down, not wanting to ruin anything accidently. that was until he ruined them himself. can you really say ruined though? this was something you'd been dreaming about since landing your eyes on him in lit class last year.
you knew who he was but didn't do anything to talk to him because, why would you? that was until he saw your pokemon card in the back of your phone case one day. of course he had to talk to you about it! how could he not!
that pokemon card is now accompanied by a polaroid of you and louis at his sixteenth birthday, sitting in his backyard with sparklers in hand. you smiled to yourself while looking at it reliving that moment. that was cut short by the sound of a loud knock filling your house.
you threw your phone into your purse and double checked your outfit as you were leaving your room. by the time you made it downstairs, your cat was already at the door meowing. she knew it would be louis as he's always (underline) at your house.
“hey momo move!" you said while grabbing her and putting her on the couch. finally you make it to the door and open it. louis is standing there flowers in hand looking as cute as ever.
"hi,” he said while playing with the stems on the flowers a bit, “i brought you flowers." he handed them towards you as you took them from his hands.
"aw lou, that's so sweet!!” he had gotten you an assortment of all your favorites, which you don't even remember telling him.
“come in while i put them in a vase?” you stepped aside to leave him room to come in the door. “then we can go?”
“yeah, yeah that's fine." you could tell louis was extremely nervous, which was cute as usually he's always messing around with you.
he walked in and went right to momo and pet her while you situated your flowers. he wanted time to relax before seeing you again.
“okay! i’m all set!" you say walking out of the kitchen, purse in hand.
" okay, yeah lets go.” louis wiped his hands down his thighs as he bid his goodbyes to momo.
you thought it was so cute how nervous he was, as it was just you. the same old y/n who was regularly playing mario kart with him in his basement.
the whole bus ride to the ice cream shop was filled with playful banter and your usual atmosphere when together. you talked about everything under the sun, while getting weird looks from the older couple on the other side of the bus when you were occasionally being too loud.
it wasn't until you arrived at the ice cream shop that reality set in for you. you were really going on a date with louis. your best friend louis. the cute nerdy louis!
you snapped out of whatever daze you were in when louis said your name.
“y/nnnn come onnnn," he said while grabbing your hand, " i want ice cream” he practically dragged you off that bus and into the ice cream shop. it smelt sickeningly sweet for an ice cream shop, but hey, at least you got a date with louis.
“what are you gonna get?" you questioned while looking up at him.
"uhhh i dunno,” he looked harder at the sign, “maybe just plain chocolate?" he looked back down at you. “i already know what you're gonna get!" you giggled while bumping into his side. “stop ! mint chocolate chip is good!!" he faked gagged while you two stepped up to the counter.
“hi, what can i get you two today!" the lady spoke.
“i’ll get the plain chocolate in a cup and she'll get the mint chocolate in a cup as well.” you started taking your wallet out to give louis cash.
“what? no put that away!" he said while looking offended that you would even try to pay for your own ice cream.
“but lou really it's okay, i can pay for my own" you said even though you were already placing your wallet back in your purse.
“nuh uh, not on our date." he said while paying for the ice creams. you laughed at that and accepted defeat.
the lady came back over shortly and handed you both your cups “have a nice day!" she said while you walked outside.
they had a nice sitting area outside that you made your way over to with louis right behind you. it was a nice day out. cloudy but not rainy, not too hot but not to cold. it was perfect.
the date consisted of you and louis bickering like always. about everything under the sun. about how momo likes him more and about how he spends too much money on pokemon cards. it was all so familiar but there was a new feeling. a good one. there was that underlying feeling that you never noticed before but it has always been there.
the way louis looked at you was like no other. he looked at you like you hung the moon even if you were just wiping ice cream off your face. he laughed at all the little things you do. he even remembered your great grandma's birthday for gods sake! he was perfect in every aspect but were too blind to see it before.
louis was just over the moon the whole time. he knew he was going to ask you out after the date. he thinks it’s going well- well he hopes it is. he's on the date with the girl he's been crushing on HARD for months! who wouldn't be ecstatic! he could listen to you ramble all day if that means he gets to stare into your y/ec eyes all day. he loves listening to your stories and tangents and when you get distracted and start laughing at your own stories. he loves it all. he thinks he loves you too. no- he knows he loves you. maybe he shouldn't say it yet but knowing him, he knows it might slip out.
before either of you knew it, the shop was closing and you had to go home. it's funny how time flies when you're with your favorite boy. it sounds corny but it's true!
you and louis made it back to your house and you invited him in. your parents usually weren't home until late. so you knew they wouldn't be there to bother the two of you.
you two settled on the couch and for a couple seconds you two didn't know what to say. until louis awkwardly opened his arms for you to come over to. he cringed at his actions until you giggled and crawled over and settled next to him. he let out a contempt sigh while rubbing your shoulder with his thumb.
“i really had fun today, lou.” you said while positioning yourself to look up at him.
"yeah, i did too.” he said while awkwardly looking around.
"what's wrong lou?” you questioned while sitting up to see him better.
"it's nothing.” you knew he was lying.
"louuuu, i know you're lying!” you said while grabbing his hand.
he let out a big sigh before continuing, still not looking at you, " well today was really really fun. like the best time ever. and i dunno how else to say this other than just doing it now before i chicken out so, y/n can i be your boyfriend?" finally he looks at your face.
you reach up and stroke his cheek while your other hand is still holding his. before he knows it your lips are on his. warm and soft. he feels like he's on cloud 9 as you pull back. he instinctively chases your lips and you giggle while putting your finger up to his lips.
"so is that a yes? or?” he questions while leaning into your touch just a little more.
"well what do you think lou?” you giggle while looking at him. you've never seen him this flustered before.
"well i don't know. it could mean a lot of things. like maybe you just pity me. yeah don't say yes if you just pity me. i’d be really sad." he went on but you stopped listening as you were just staring at him, waiting for him to realize.
“yeah?" he said, instantly stopping his thoughts.
“it's a yes." you smiled.
his face lit up at that. he's been waiting for this moment for months and it's finally happening.
the rest of the night was spent by you two cuddling and watching whatever dumb movies you found on tubi.
the date was perfect. the aftermath was perfect. and most importantly, your boyfriend, louis, was perfect.
