fourteen

It was the week of their album debut. Louis has had a few pap walks with Eleanor and they even had to go on proper dates. Usually, one woman who worked for modest would always be around them and tell them what to do or just simply watch them to make sure that they were acting like a proper couple.

Eleanor and Louis were just about to walk out of the pizzeria when her phone vibrated. She quickly pulled it out and read the message she received. Louis watched the expression on her face change, so he asked what was wrong.

She looked up at him, her eyes widened a bit, before she turned to the woman who worked for modest. Louis turned to look at her and only saw her nod encouragingly.

"What?" Louis asked slowly and looked back at the brunette. She turned to him again and simply looked at him.

"We have to kiss."

Louis felt his heart drop and he couldn't help but feel disgusted. Eleanor and him got along fine but he didn't want to kiss her. Ever. Especially because he was with Harry.

Turns out management made sure to let a couple of fans know where they'd go after dinner. So obviously they'd follow them and then see them kissing. And if management got lucky, they'd even take pictures or record them.

Louis knew that if they posted a video or photo of him kissing it would spread like wildfire.

They put on their coats and walked out of the restaurant and soon enough there were a couple of people following them. After walking for a few minutes, they arrived at the river.

Louis couldn't help but thinking about the times he had gone on late night walks with Harry here. Not to forget this was the place where they said I love you for the first time.

It felt wrong being here with her. Everything about her and him felt wrong.

He didn't even have time to text Harry and tell him what Eleanor and him have to do. Louis just hoped for the love of whoever was watching them that Harry wouldn't see it on twitter before he comes home and gets the chance to explain it to him.

Eleanor got another text and quickly wrapped her arms around Louis after reading it. This was their que. He wrapped his arms around her as well and leaned her against the railing. (Secretly hoping that it wouldn't hold their weight, break and make her fall into the cold water.)

They looked at each other for a few moments before she started leaning in. Louis made sure that his lips were pressed into a thin line before their lips touched. Her lips were soft but felt like nothing compared to Harrys.

He couldn't bring himself to kiss back and after a couple of seconds they pulled away, Eleanor pulling him closer and putting her head on his shoulder.

Louis felt sick. He was sure that he'll throw up in a couple of moments. Never has he felt this bad before in his life. That's when it hit him. He cheated on Harry. He fucking cheated on the boy he was in love with.

Not even two minutes later the people came up to them and asked for photos and autographs. Louis fake smiled in every single photo and made sure to cuddle all of them before saying goodbye.

Eleanor and him walked away and as soon as they were positive that there were no fans around, he yanked his arm away from Eleanor, who was holding onto it.

Finally, he pulled out his phone and frowned when he had two missed calls from Harry. Within seconds he opened twitter and of course there were photos of him and Eleanor lip locked all over.

He felt even worse now. Louis quickly dialled Harrys number and after a couple of rings his voicemail answered. "Shit."

In only a few moments he started to panic and called Harry again. After that he rang Niall and Liam. No answer.
