Harrys POV:
I don't even know what came over me. As soon as Zayn and Louis started getting all cuddly during that interview, jealousy took over.

I was grumpy and quiet during the rest of the interview. When we got to the car, I could tell all the other boys could sense my frustration but they kept their mouths shut. It was pretty silent in the car besides Niall humming some song. Although I was mad, my little leprechaun always seemed to cheer me up.

We pulled up into the driveway of the flat we all shared and I stomped to the door. I turned the door knob and marched up stairs, slamming the door behind me.

Louis' POV:
All the boys stood there with me confused. Something happened to Harry back at the interview but none of us knew why and Harry wouldn't talk to anybody.

"What do you think happened lads?"

We all came up with different theories that were probably not what happened. Niall said something about the interviewer saying something but the interviewer never mentioned anything bad to Harry. Nobody really knew what to do so Liam started cooking (because obviously Harry wasn't going to) while the rest of us sat silently in the living.

We decided it was best to leave Harry alone for a little while but I was very impatient. I just wanted to find out what was wrong with him.

Harrys POV:
Once I got in my room, my anger turned into wet tears. Tears seemed to flow endlessly down my cheek, leaving spots all over my shirt. I sat on the floor sobbing and wishing all these feelings would go away.

"It's been kinda long mates.." I heard Louis say from downstairs.

I then heard responses from Zayn and Niall but they weren't clear enough for me to make out.

I wish I could tell Louis how I felt. I wish I could tell everyone how I felt. But I knew Louis would hate me. He would probably think I was a creep and never talk to me again. I couldn't take that risk so I always kept quiet until today when I lost it.

Still quietly sobbing, I heard the last thing that I wanted to hear.

"Okay it's been long enough. I'm going to go see what's wrong with him."

Zayn and Niall tried to stop Louis but I could hear him coming up the stairs and I knew I was in trouble.

I looked in the mirror and realized what a mess I looked like. My hair was sticking out everywhere, my cheeks were tear stained, and my eyes were all red and puffy.

I quickly ran into the bathroom and locked the door. I was not going to let Louis see me in this state.

"Harry I'm coming in"

Before I could say anything I heard the bedroom door open. I heard a couple of footsteps moving around the room, probably him looking for me, but then I heard footsteps near the bathroom door. Louis began knocking but I didn't respond. He then tried to open the door but realized the door was locked.

Louis' POV:
Shit. Of course he would lock the door.

"Harry let me in" I demanded.

No response.

"Harry I'm serious."

Still no response.

My frustration suddenly softened.

"Harry..please tell me what's wrong."

After a couple of seconds, I heard him whisper something.

"I can't." he said.

What does he mean he "can't"?

"What do you mean you can't?" I asked.

"Louis I wish I could. But I just can't" he replied with sadness in his voice.

This was more serious then I thought. I knew whatever was going on with Harry was really hurting him so I need to help him now.

"Harry please come out to talk to me."

With no response, I got up and was about to leave when I heard the bathroom door unlock.

I turned around to see his red puffy eyes and messed up hair.

"Harry..." I said before going to give him a hug.

He briefly hugged back but pushed back and turned away.

"Harry please tell me what's wrong."

He glanced at me but looked away.

"Louis I told you..I can't."

I really wanted to know what he meant by that..

"Harry of course you can. We've been best friends for years now. You can tell me everything. You know I won't judge you."

Harrys POV:
Best friends. That felt like a punch in the stomach. I wanted to be more but he could never return the feelings.

Tears sprung into my eyes and streamed down my cheeks. I tried to look away quick enough so he wouldn't see me crying but I failed. Louis grabbed my face and faced it towards his.

"Harry please. You're hurting me. Seeing you like this and me not being able to do anything about it. Please tell me Harry."

Why did he care so much?

"Louis..you'd hate me."

He stared at me with a shocked expression.

"Harry how could you say that? I could never hate you.."

I had to tell him. Even if he would hate me or be disgusted, I was hurting him too much and I couldn't do that to him.

"W-well I-I..." I stammered.

"Haz breathe. Calm down."

I took a deep breath and spilled. I started from the jealousy at the interview and how the anger turned into tears and all my feelings towards him.

When I finished, Louis just stared at me with an unreadable expression. I looked down into my hands and felt extremely uncomfortable under Louis' stare.

Before I knew it, Louis was kissing me. Never had I ever thought of this. Of course I imagined it but I never thought it would really happen. I quickly pulled back and looked at him confused.

"Wait why di- You don't hate me?" I asked quietly.

Louis smiled and shook his head.

"Don't you see Harry? I love you too. I always have but I never thought the feelings were mutual."

I sat there shocked but a wide grin broke onto my face. Louis began to grin as well and we just sat there grinning at eachother.

"I love you." we said in sync.
