I hate you too l.t

23

Louis ended up staying longer than just one night, it's Wednesday and he's still staying with us. Anne had no problem with it, but Harry did. I let Louis sleep in my bed and I slept in Harry's bed to make him feel better about Louis's stay.

I sit in maths, listening to all of the directions but not understanding the work at all. Most people worked with a parter but I do better working alone. Since we had two more days left of high school, our teacher was just giving us packets to make the time worth.

"Can you help me with this?" Louis asked coming up to me. Before I could say anything, the class phone started to ring. "Wish I could, but I gotta go" I start to pack up my things. "Why?" He asks. "Doncaster, you're going home" The teacher says.

Louis stood there confused at my desk as I walked out of the class. I catch up to Harry in the hallway.

The funeral for my mum was today, I don't know why my tia's planned it during a school day. I mean it's our last week of school and we have to miss half a day, may not seem like much at all. I missed so much school this year, I'm surprised that I'm still graduating.

We got to stop at home and change, I take a plain black dress and put it on. Harry put on a suit and tie.

It felt like a family reunion, I haven't see my other relatives in almost five years. My family didn't really like each other, so we just drifted further and further away from each other.

Apart from me, Harry loved my family. Everyone loved Harry, they all enjoyed seeing him. Especially my tia, Kimberly. She always loved on him, and I know that's who he'll go to first.

I lock eyes with my brothers, my body started feeling more comfortable seeing them here. Isaac is the oldest, so he saw the most of our mum. Despite that, I knew they would feel the same way I do about her death.

I give Zedekai a hug, and then Isaac. "How are you doing?" Zedekai asks me. "I'm okay" I say.

Later that night, I lay on bed. Scrolling on my phone, Harry was in the bathroom taking a shower. I look on Instagram and saw a post from one of my distant friends.

"Harry" I shout to him. He comes out of the bathroom, shaking his hair. "We're invited to a grad party" I show him the post, he shrugs. "When?" He asks. "Bozo, it says it right here, on Saturday" I tell his oblivious self.

"Come to think of it, where's Louis?" He ask, looking around the room. "Oh shit, I didn't even think of him" I sit up, realizing none of his stuff was here. "That's a first" He scoffs, I roll my eyes and went to Louis's contact in my phone.

There was no point in texting him, he won't answer if his life depended on it. He's probably cooled off with his dad and went back home.

"Doncaster?" Anne says behind our door. "Yeah?" I question. "Someone's here to see you" She says. My thoughts convinced me it would be Louis.

I open the door, that was a mistake. "Ashton?" I see him standing there, with his hands together. I could tell he was nervous. "Can we talk?" He asks. "Yes, but not here. Harry will not be pleased seeing your face" I look back into the room.

We go outside and sat on the front steps to the door. "I'm sorry" He says in defeat. I knew he meant it. "Ashton, you weren't being yourself. I mean you came to school drunk" I say to him, he puts his head down. "I know, I was just a train reck. I became a shitty boyfriend towards you" He sighs.

"Yeah" I agree with him. "But that was never my intention, I guess when you started to ignore me I was so scared of loosing you that I started to avoid the problem, and when I lost you I couldn't accept it" He explains, that made sense to me. He had some rough relationships in the past which has caused him to be more clingy and needy.

"I never wanted to hurt you, I'm sorry." He says, with guilty eyes. I didn't know what to say, because I don't forgive him but I also want him to know that it means a lot that he is apologizing and realizing what he did was wrong. His actions did deserve consequences, hopefully he learned his lesson while he was suspended.

"Thank you for the apology, but I can't accept" I say, trying to be mature in this situation. The silence was loud, it was uncomfortable silence. The kind of quiet when you just need to say something or it will get more and more awkward.

"I just can't believe I hurt you, I actually tried to physically hurt you. I don't want you to think I'm a bad person" His hazel brown eyes started to glisten under the moonlight. Tears were forming in his eyes. He wasn't a big fan of letting himself cry.

"You're not a bad person, you just made a mistake. I'm sorry for being an asshole and ignoring you, it wasn't kind of me." I scoot closer to him, and put my arm on his back. He let tears drop from his eyes. I gently rub his back, giving him time to let it out.

He started to calm down, wiping his tears off. I stand up and reached out my hand for him. He takes it and I help him up. I wrap my arms around him, giving a tight hug. He melted into the hug. "You should probably get going, Harry will notice that I'm gone and you need some rest"

I watch him drive out of the neighborhood. I head back inside, Anne was in the kitchen and Harry sat on the couch. "I cant believe you both are graduating soon" Anne says, she stirs a wooden spoon in a pot filled with hot water.

"Lilian is so pretty" I hear a sigh from the living room, Harry sat staring at his phone. His eyes were lightened up. I smile, seeing him falling for her. "I think I might ask her to be my girlfriend at the party. Should I?" He turns to me, asking for my opinion.

"Go for it, she seems to really like you and you seem to really like her" I tease him. "Maybe I do" He blushes. "Speaking of crushes, have you talked to Louis?" He asks, making jokes about Louis became a regular. Harry would tease me, saying I like him or he's my boyfriend.

It didn't really bother me anymore because it was all just to piss me off, and it's jokes he likes to make. Louis wouldn't date me, even if it saved his life.
