"The fuck?!"Louis breathed.He looked between his best friend and his new roommate.Zayn looked shocked but slightly pleased,staring at his feet and Liam was giving his usual puppy dog eyes.
"Uh yeah,yeah I have.In fact I can see you guessed by now.Yeah um,Zayn and I.. uh accident..same room,kiss,really good..I got shy and well scared course..cuz maybe u noticed he's a bloke.A bloke with greek god like features.Yeah his eyes are so pretty but they get scary when he's mad.Yeah mad,got mad.I couldn't accept it..so a yeah,"Liam mumbled,his face had flushed a bright red and he was biting his lip in nervousness.
"You sure?"Zayn asked Liam softly and Liam nodded. The older boy put an arm around Liam and said, "What Li here is trying to say is that when we were rooming together we both accidentally kissed,but I came to terms with the fact that I liked it before he did.So I was a brat and we fought,but yeah,I'm sorry Li."
Liam nuzzled into Zayn's shoulder as if to say it's okay I forgive you.
"I'M so happy for you guys!"Louis exclaimed excitedly.Because he really was.Even though this had taken him by surprise and it was two of his closest friends,he really was happy. "Yeah this is cuteness overload!!"Harry gushed,showing off his dimples and Louis had the urge to poke them,so he did.
Harry flinched.
That'S when Louis knew he fucked up,again,as expected.
"This is the best thing ever!!!!!!!!!!!"Niall screamed giddily, "Well best thing after blueberry ice cream with banana but you guys come in second!" Niall's strange food choice didn't shock Louis as much as it used to before,he legit saw the kid eat a fried scorpion.But....what he didn't understand was how the irish lad could place Ziam over Larry!
But Louis also didn't want to think why it mattered really.For some reason for every question why, a cheeky boy with dimples was becoming the because.
"Well I'm the only completely straight one here then!"Niall declared.Louis looked so fast over to him that even Damon from the vampire diaries (which Harry and him had binge watched earlier,snuggling under the covers) couldn't have snapped his neck so fast!
"What are you talking about?I'm straight!!"Louis protested. Everyone except Harry looked at him and either laughed or rolled their eyes. "It's okay if it takes you a while to come to terms with it,it took me time too"Liam said.
"I don't need time,I'm straight,"Louis insisted again.But at the back of his mind he saw all the male lifeguards' abs he ogled when he was younger. He remembered some guy in elementary school who's smile made him feel weird inside,he saw the guy he saw on tv who he thought was hot.But most of all he saw green eyes and brown curls. Begging to play with him as kids,Looking up to him with shiny eyes in play school,head turned away when they saw each other in the corridors.Then in college,laughing,watching movies,talking just talking.It was like a video on loop.
But Louis shook those thoughts out of his head,he let everyone's teasings get too much in his head.He liked girls and the stuff they came with.Not dicks,not Harry. He was just curious on why everyone thought he and Harry would make a couple,yeah that was it.Besides Harry saw him as a brother.
"I'm definitely straight mate,"he told the others,well Niall,Liam and Zayn because Harry seemed to have vanished. Niall sighed,the excitement vanished from his face, "whatever you say Lewis."
Louis was confused,he understood why Harry was mad at him,he chose a person they both hated over his best friend..but why was Niall mad? He didn't say anything mean to Niall...or was it because of Harry. That's when Louis had an epiphanic realisation.Was Niall mad at him because he hurt Harry. No,that wasn't allowed.Niall was allowed to be concerned about Harry and was allowed to console him,not be possessive over him.Then Louis mentally slapped himself. He was such a hypocrite.He shouldn't be thinking this stuff. Niall and apHarry were super close too. In fact it was Niall's duty as a friend to get mad at anyone who hurt Haz. Louis would've done the same for his best friend.... except this time it was his fault.
"Lou,are you okay?"
He looked up to see Zayn looking at him with concerned eyes. Liam looked equally worried. "No yeah I'm fine,why would you ask that?"
"You were uh deep in thought?"Liam tried and at the same time Zayn said, "you slapped yourself." Louis blushed, "I just need some rest,that's it.And I need to make things right with Haz."
"Now he gets it,"Niall snorted and got up,probably to find Harry.
"Come Lou,how about you turn in for the night."Liam suggested.
"Yeah that sounds good."
Louis lay in bed,tossing and turning.Liam and him had always had a love-hate relationship.They bickered endlessly.Not the funny flirty banter that he and Harry had,but the kind of fights he'd have with Lottie. But he always had the puppy faces boy's back,and he knew Liam would have his.But today Liam was extremely cautious with him and got him water, and folded Louis' clothes that he had thrown to one side and tucked him into bed like a stuff toy.
And while Louis appreciated the gesture,he hated it.
He didn't deserve the love and sympathy he was getting from Zayn and Liam.He deserved Niall's cold treatment.In fact he deserved way worse,he hurt his best friend.And he had to make it right,he wouldn't make it right.He knew some grand gesture wouldn't do anything,he had to sit and talk with Harry.
If the curly boy still wanted to talk to him that is. But not right now,tomorrow.In the morning...he'd make things right.
