A Cute Couple
-Louis-
"We all love you, but after this tour, One Direction will be made of four boys." I stormed out of the room. I had to get my anger out somehow. Wasn't there a place in a hospital where people could let off some steam? I hadn't ever been this mad in my life. Harry was in the hospital in ICU. If that wasn't bad enough, he had someone else with him. What if he got someone else in the hospital? This is bad enough for our band's reputation. This is terrible.
I walked up and down the hall, trying to distract myself. After getting some potato chips out of the vending machine, I walked back to Harry's room. On the way there, I was concentrating so hard that I accidentally bumped into a skinny girl with dark blonde hair. She looked to be about Ashley's age and, to be honest, she was quite attractive. She managed to get me into a somewhat better mood. She looked up at me and said, "Oh, sorry. Uhm, you're Louis Tomlinson, right?"
Great. A fan. She was still lovely though. "Yeah. But please don't tell anyone we're here. Harry was in that hurricane and got himself and a girl landed in here."
"Really? My friend Ashley got hurt in the hurricane too. She texted me to come here, but not to tell anyone. I thought it was weird, but came anyway. Can I ask where Harry's room is?"
I scratched the back of my head. "It's right here, actually."
Her jaw dropped and she said, "This is Ashley's room!" We both entered the room to find Ashley crying into Harry's shoulder, and Niall eating some potato chips in the chair by the beds while crying. "Ashley! Harry! Niall! Louis, what's going on?!"
I sighed. "Harry and Ashley met at our concert last night. He took her off to dinner and his beach house, and he forgot about the hurricane. Both of them got hurt in the storm."
She set her purse down. "Is that why they're crying so hard?"
I didn't want to break this news to anyone yet, but I guess I was going to have to. "No. Harry got himself and someone else seriously hurt. Not only will this worry the rest of us constantly, but it'll hurt the band's reputation." I took a big breath and let it out. "After our concerts in Florida, Harry will not be a part of One Direction anymore." At this, Niall cried harder and Ashley's friend gasped.
"No! But Harry's part of One Direction! He can't be out! I know I can't do anything to change your decision, but Harry's most of the girls' favorites out there. You'll lose tons of fans if you make him quit." She walked over to Ashley. She had a point. She had a damn good point.
"Hey, Allison Sawyer! It is you," Ashley laughed as Allison hugged her.
"Are you okay, Ashley?! When you texted me, I was so worried! And now I see why you didn't want anyone to know. Hi, Harry. I'm Allison. I don't want to get into your personal business or anything, but did you two go on a date or something?"
Ashley and Harry smiled. "Yeah," they said simultaneously.
"Aw! That's really cute. You guys make a nice couple. The fans would agree, I'm sure, but I'm certainly not going to tell anyone." There was a silence, just long enough for me to glance up at Allison and wonder what it would be like to date her, but then remembering I'm with Eleanor, the sweetest, most beautiful woman on Earth.
