The words that left Louis' lips like smoke, he was performing in Dallas tonight. The crowd was beyond energetic, doors closed, lights dim of red as Louis lost himself in the music.
"Habit! Habit! Habit!" The fans chanted, wishing for Louis to sing. Even after he'd already sang it twice. He knew, the fans knew, and everyone else who wasn't completely in their heads knew that the song was about Harry and Harry only.
Currently Harry was supposed to be on a flight to Cheshire to visit Anne. What Louis didn't know was that Harry would later surprise him backstage. "I can't I'm sorry, times cut short." Louis spoke into the jet black microphone.
Louis was also mad at Harry again. Mostly because Harry didn't tell him that he loved him before he left for England.
Harry tried to tell him that he was sorry but once again Louis' pride stood strong. "Thank you so much! Goodnight." He said as the lights shut completely off so Louis could run of stage.
"Mind grabbing me some water?" Louis asked one of the backstage securities. "Thanks." He began walking to the nearest couch next to the bathrooms but he paused when he noticed Harry standing by the door. "Hi." Harry speaks softly to Louis who stood still.
"Shouldn't you be in England?" Louis ignores Harry's greetings. "Hi Louis." Haz repeats himself. "Hi Harry shouldn't you be in England." Louis sarcastically spits, rolling his eyes in the process.
The security taps Lou's shoulder making him peel and take out his ear pieces. He gently smiles, grabbing the water from his hands. He began chugging the beverage quickly as he watched Harry walk closer. "Let me come closer." Harry pouts when notices Louis backing up.
"I can count on my hands how many times you've told me that you love me this week." Louis finally speaks his truth. "I've been away all week and so have you. What do you want me to say?" Harry throws his hands up. "Hmm. I don't know maybe an explanation as to why you hop on a plane at 4 o'clock in the morning just to tell me you love me over the phone once you 'remember'."
"Just like you told me that it was always me why can't you see that I feel the same way."
"Because I loved you first so I can decide what's valid in this situation." Louis laughs. "There's nothing funny. Don't you dare use that against me." Harry's demeanor turns completely devastated that Louis was talking to him like this.
"This isn't you Louis." Harry begins to tear up, turning away so Lou couldn't see his reaction to his words. "Come on Haz, don't start crying you know I hate that." Louis grabs Harry's cheeks. "I said I love you and I meant it. I always mean it." Harry sniffles, going to wipe his sudden tears but of course Lou was quick to push his hand away and wipe them himself.
"I love you too I'm just frustrated with everything we have going on okay. You're in a pr stunt right now and I have to tour while thinking about it as I sing our favorite songs. That shit is harder than it seems." Louis finally opens up, he was practically forcing Harry to look at him now.
"I'm in love with you, push this media shit back and focus on what's real here." Harry finally turns his head. "I will. I am." Louis complies. "And what's real to you?" He asks. "Us, we're real. It'll always be real."
Harry didn't like swearing at Louis. Just because it felt like he was degrading the situation, he wanted Louis to know that he was more important than anyone else so he used civil and clean words to get his point across, but the moment a curse word slipped from his lips you would know that he was beyond serious.
"I love you more than anything else." Harry whispers the moment Louis snatches Harry into a deep hug. "I loved you first." Lou mumbles into his neck. "I'll be sure to remember that." He laughs. "I'm sorry." Louis pouts, running his fingers through Harry's short curls that he just cut not to long ago. "Don't be I understand." Haz sighs.
With that they finally made up. Well they always do if Louis was in a good mood. The air was calm and peaceful now.
They continued to hug backstage until Harry had to force Louis off as he always does when he knows Louis will miss him too much... ——— ———
