*Louis' POV*
When I get out of English I'm fuming. Not only do have do I have work with Harry but I got an extra assignment. "I can't believe this!" I tell Zayn as we walk down the hall to our lockers.

"Hey I'm working with his best friend theirs nothing you can do about it maybe it won't be all that bad." He says making my jaw drop. "Are you ok." I ask feelings his head. "Yes I'm fine. I'm just saying theirs nothing you can do about it so just hope for the best."He says.

"Ha speak of devil" I say,making Zayn turn around to see Harry walking up to us. "Louis, I just wanted to say that I can do the essay. I don't expect anything between us to change. But I did appreciate your apology." He says never looking up at me once. He quickly turns around and starts toward the lunch room.

"Hey Styles" I holler making him turn around. "I already got chewed out once I'm not taking any chances on Mr.Corden finding out I didn't help you so where are we meeting? I ask and I notice him get really nervous. I mean I know I've bullied him before but we're just talking. "Not my house it's um.. being renovated."he says rather weirdly.

"Ok the park? I would say my house but as many sisters as I have theirs no way we could concentrate." I tell him. "Ok yeah that's fine" he says turning and going to lunch. I'm not sure why I did that I mean I had a get out of jail free card but I just felt like I needed to help him. And when he told me he appreciated the apology that couldn't have been butterflies in my stomach could it?

*Zayn POV*
I'm in the boys bathroom freaking out right now. To cut to the chase I'm in love with Niall. I know I know I'm an a arse but Louis and I have been friends since before kindergarten and when I saw how he was toward Harry I didn't know what to do. But I'm slowly losing it every since Niall came from Ireland freshman year and I saw him I was hooked.

I was gonna tell Louis, then I saw when someone outed Harry I panicked. Plus Niall's straight. Im not saying that gives me a right to be a hypocrite I'm just saying without him what's the use in coming out. But right now I'm freaking out because I'm supposed to give Niall a ride back to my house so we can work on this paper. I'd do anything if I could just talk to Louis about this. But I don't wanna loose my partner in crime. To be honest I don't know what he has against Harry except Harry's gay. It's always Lou that starts the pushing him. I've never laid a hand on Harry and neither has Liam, but we definitely could've stopped it. More than a couple of times.

When I hear the last bell ring I step in front of the sink rinsing my face. I'd  skipped last period so I could clear my head. I take a deep breath and go to meet Niall at the doors of school.

*Harry POV*
For some reason Louis' not bothered to really even talk to me today. And I don't like the way it makes me feel. I don't know why but I don't like when I don't see him much.

I know mum's gonna be mad that I don't have dinner ready for her when she gets off, but to be honest I don't care. When I walk up to the park I see Louis standing by a picnic table.

"Hi Louis" I tell him not making eye contact. "Hey well let's get this over with" he says in a huff. "What are we doing this paper about?" He ask. "We'll actually I was thinking about that but if you don't like the idea I completely understand." I tell him still looking at the ground.

"Well are you gonna tell me what it is?" He ask. "Yeah sorry, well first let me say I thought this topic would help you out of doing that extra paper."I tell him making him nod. "Also let me finish before you say anythi..."I say.

"Holy crap Harry are you gonna tell me or not?" He interrupts. "Ok.... Well my idea would save you from having to do 2 paper like I said." I tell him taking a deep breath. "How?" He ask

"Well if you're comfortable with it we could do the paper on how hard life can be for gays. But like I said if you're not comfortable with it,it's fine I just thought if you did your paper on this then you wouldn't have to do the other paper."  I tell him feeling very nervous. I finally look up at Louis and he's just looking at me. "Like I said Louis we don't have to do it was stup..."I start to say.

"Harry shut up and let me think for a second." He tells me making me step away from him. Afraid he's gonna be mad at me for even suggesting such a thing.

"Harry I'm not gonna hurt you. That's actually a really good idea. But I have to go pick up my little sisters so you wanna meet back here tomorrow, and actually start the writing?" He ask picking his bag up. "Yeah that's fine. Um do you have a laptop?" I ask him feeling embarrassed. "Yeah, why?" He ask confused. "Well we're gonna need one for research." I tell him.

"Well I figured yours would be more helpful. I'm not trying to be a smartarse but this is sorta your territory." He tells me making me laugh.

"I don't have one." I tell him making his eyes go wide. "What how do you not have one for school and stuff. Sorry it's just I know that you live in a rather well off neighborhood. I was just wondering," He ask . "No it's ok it's a valid question. My mum won't get me one. So I guess you'd say I'm stuck in the stone ages." I tell him and he actually laughs. "I'll bring mine tomorrow it's no big deal."  He tells me still smiling. After Louis leaves I stand there in shock what the fook just happened. Louis and I just had a conversation like normal civil human beings I honestly don't know what to think or how to feel.
