Two days later we performed again on X-factor. Only one of the contestants from our group was going to go onto the next round.
It wasn't me. Or Louis.
After that was over we went backstage and both of us were pretty gutted but louis just pulled me into a hug whispering "Its, okay. It's okay." into my ear, which calmed me down a little. After about 10 minutes me, Louis, and three other boys I've seen around were called back on stage. I was confused. 'Didn't he just say we didn't make it? Why are they calling us back?'
"I've made a decision to put the five of you boys into a band." Simon said.
As soon as it registered, Louis jumped on me yelling "we made it!" I was so happy that day. And I was so thankful for Simon, boy was I wrong.
...
A few weeks after being formed, we still didn't have a name. We were around the campfire at my dad's bungalow just throwing out names when I randomly said "how 'bout One Direction?" Louis immediately agreed, he usually does, but I was surprised to see that Niall, Liam, and Zayn agreed to it as well. "So... One Direction it is!" Louis cheered. We ordered some pizza and decided to celebrate.
Since we were staying at the bungalow for two weeks to get to know each other Niall thought it would be fun for us to play two truths and a lie.
"Okay, I'll go first." he said
"I'm Irish, I play guitar, and... I have a sister."
"That's easy mate! You have a brother, not a sister." Zayn said.
Niall huffed. "Fine, let's see if you can do better."
"Okay. umm, i'm from Bradford, I like to swim, and I almost didn't go to my first audition" Zayn stated.
"Well we all know you're from Bradford, but I doubt you almost didn't go to the audition. Right harry?" Louis said.
"Uh, yea that makes sense." I said and the rest agreed.
Zayn smiled. "Actually, I can't swim. I hate water."
"Really? Okay wow." Liam said. "Wait, so you actually almost didn't go to your first audition?"
"Technically I just didn't want to get out of bed." Zayn shrugged and we all laughed
"Okay, it's my turn." Louis said. "I have a crush on someone that doesn't like me back, I'm the oldest of five, and I hate tacos."
Wait, Louis has a crush? Who? Why am I upset that he likes someone, I mean, do I think he's attractive? Yes. Did I make up a fake scenario where we were in a relationship? Maybe... but I don't like him like that, do I?
"Umm, I'm gonna say the first one, because who wouldn't like you?" I said. He smiled at that.
"Actually, the lie is that I hate tacos, I love them."
Huh, good to know.
"Okay Liam can go next" I said.
"Umm, I have two turtles and one of them ate the other's foot, my favourite colour is purple, and I'm the oldest kid in my family."
"Definitely the last one is a lie." Niall said. "I've met your sisters."
"Correct. Harry, it's your turn."
I thought for a moment about what I wanted to say. What was I even supposed to say?
"Umm... lets see, I sang in a band before this one, I hate dancing, and I'm pretty sure I'm gay." I said. I noticed that Louis froze for a second and had a look on his face as if he was trying to figure something out. Not going to lie, he looked cute. Like I could squeeze him and cuddle him and k-, forget I said that.
"You were in another band!" shouted Niall.
"Actually the lie is that I hate dancing. I don't mind it, I'm just not good at it."
We all kind of ignored the last part, except Louis. He kept looking at me throughout the rest of the game. Not in a bad way, I hope. I'll have to ask him about it later.
We played a few more rounds before we decided to head inside and get ready for bed. When I saw Louis in the living room I took the chance to talk to him about what happened while we were playing.
"Hey Lou." I said as I sat down beside him.
"Hey."
It was quiet for a moment before I spoke up. "Do you have a problem with me being gay?" So I guess I'm being straight forward now.
"W-what? No! No, no i don't, it would be weird if i did seeing as i'm gay too." he said so quietly that i could barely hear him. Wait- Louis is gay?! But his crush-, oh. But what guy wouldn't like Louis? He's perfect!
"Cool." really? Cool? C'mon harry!
"You said something earlier about having a crush, who?" I asked. Kind of scared of the answer.
Louis blushed a deep red. "That is for me to know and you to find out when I build up the courage to tell him" he says smugly.
"Fine, but you can't tell me after your feelings toward him change." I joked. But inside I was jealous, jealous of the guy that Louis likes. Why? Because I've finally realized that I have a huge crush on Louis but he likes someone else.
He looks me in the eye. "Trust me, I doubt my feelings are going to change anytime soon."
Great.
