TW: Passing out.

Dedicated to my other supportive and impatient friend. xx

Louis woke up. He had the world's most ridiculous dream: Harry saying he loves Louis. Louis mentally slapped himself for getting such dreams, which were never going to happen in reality.
He sighed and went back to sleep, cuddling further into an asleep Harry.

The next few weeks went in a flash, but were often busy and tiring.

Louis, Zayn and Liam were enjoying their lives, while big offers and opportunities rang their doorbell.

Louis had re-joined football for this season as the last time, because this year would be his last in Uni. Doncaster Rovers, the well-known football club, had requested Louis to play for them as a defender after his Uni years were over. Louis was overwhelmed and gladly accepted the request.

Zayn had been selected by the Cambridge University as an English professor. Zayn had been over-emotional and accepted it immediately. He thanked Liam over and over again, saying "You're the reason to my success and happiness!" and Liam always saying "It's all you, not me!" and loads of make-out sessions.

Liam had signed a contract with Republic Records, with whom he could begin recording songs as soon as his Uni was done. Singing was Liam's first love, much to Zayn's disappointment that it wasn't him, but was more than happy that his love of life could finally become a singer.

Harry was equally happy about all his friends' achievements, but secretly sad that he was 2 years younger and would have to stay back at Uni even after they left. As much as this thought saddened him, another thought cheered him up: Today was 19th December. Louis and Harry were driving to Louis' house in Donny.

Zayn and Liam had already left for Cheshire, to Zayn's house.

Harry was currently packing, clothes and all other things he needed to take with him to Donny for 2 weeks. Another thing that cheered Harry up was the fact that Louis would soon open up to him. All about his past and also who was the guy he loved. It angered and saddened Harry at the same time, thinking Louis liked someone who was not him.

He was also scared about Louis' past, not knowing what exactly had happened. But he decided to be strong, brave and firm for Louis, like a true...lover his brain said but he shook his head and said, "Nope, like a true friend. That's all. He doesn't like me." But you do. Harry's brain threw at him. Harry ignored it. He wouldn't cry now, not when Louis needed him.

Louis was currently in the restroom, doing God-knows-what. Harry didn't want to ask him; you should give people their own personal space too. Even if you loved them more than yourself.

While Harry sat on Louis' bed packing, Louis sat on the closed toilet seat deep in thought. He wondered if he would be able to open up, or not. He thought about the consequences.

After knowing about Louis' past, Harry could do 2 things:

One, he would get disgusted and stay as far as possible from Louis, and probably even expose his secret in Uni.

Two, he would accept Louis the way he was and remain Louis' best friend (shush, don't tell anybody, he is my best friend ever since I met him).

Though Louis was 99.99999999% sure that Harry would accept Louis and his past, there was still this 0.00000001% uncertainty in his mind, which was eating him up. And his brain, for the first time in a billion years, said. Zayn accepted you. Harry and Zayn are best friends. Harry and Zayn have similar views. Besides, Harry is not any friend, he's an intelligent friend of yours. Probably the smartest teen you know. Don't doubt him.
