We Made It (Larry Stylinson Au)

7

I woke up the next morning feeling happy. I made a new friend and he happens to be Louis' best mate. Maybe he can help me get closer to Louis. Wait why do I want to get close to Louis? It's not like I like him, do I?

I decided to forget about it and got into the shower. I grabbed my shampoo that smells like apples. I washed my hair and then used my special conditioner that makes my curls more bouncy. I cleaned myself and got out of the shower.

I walked out of the bathroom that is connected to my bedroom with a towel covering my waist and another one covering my hair. I put on my clothes and dried my hair. I styled it with a bandana like I usually do and went downstairs to eat breakfast.

Gemma seemed to notice how happy I was. "What's got you smiling so widely?" she asked, curious.

"Well, my dear sister, yesterday I was smart enough to befriend Louis' best mate."

"Oh. That makes it easier for you to get close to him, doesn't it?"

"It sure does" I smiled.

"Honestly Haz, are you sure you don't like him? I mean you talk about him a lot and you even watched him practise yesterday. That says a lot, you know"

Maybe Gemma's right. Maybe I do like Louis. Nah that's not possible. He's just a friend.

"No, Gemma. I don't like him. Sure he's cute, has beautiful ocean blue eyes, he's funny and has a good body but it doesn't mean I like him."

"Okay Harry. Believe what you want."

"Let's just go, alright"

I walked into the school and went to my locker to get my things. Louis was already there taking things out of his locker. "Hey Lou" I smiled at him.

"Hey Hazza. What do you think about Niall. Did he annoy you yesterday?"

"He didn't annoy me. He's really energetic and funny. I wanna get to know him better."

"Okay. Let me just get straight to the point. Do you like him or not?"

"Why are you asking? Are you jealous or something?"

"No, I just want to know so I can prevent you from getting heartbroken."

"Sure" I dragged out the word. "I don't like him. I don't fall in love that easily so stop asking me that every time I make a new friend. Just because I'm gay doesn't mean I go after my friends. Just like how I wouldn't go after Zayn even though I find him attractive because he already likes Liam and Liam feels the same way - they wouldn't know that if it wasn't for me by the way."

"Okay, I'll stop asking. And I was asking because I wanted to let you know Niall isn't gay."

"Okay. I'll see you later Lou"

"See you later Haz"

It was lunch time and I was sitting with Zayn and Liam eating my lunch. We were talking about random stuff until Niall came up to us. He sat down and greeted us. "Hello my gay boys"

"What makes you think we're gay?" I asked.

"Well, Harry, it's obvious you're gay and while Louis was venting to me about you he said you'd mentioned something about Zayn and Liam being together."

"What do you mean it's obvious I'm gay?" I asked, offended.

"The real question Harry is why are you going around telling people you literally just met that me and Liam are together? We've only been on one date. I can't say I'm shocked though. Of course you'd tell your crush something like that." Zayn said.

"Why do people keep thinking I like Louis? And I'm sorry Zayn but even if I didn't tell Louis I'm pretty sure Niall would have figured it out on his own considering the way you two are always acting like some obnoxious couple even though you've only been on one date. Honestly sometimes it's like I don't even exist around you two. Luckily, I became friends with Niall when I did because now I can hang out with someone who actually acknowledges my existence rather than someone who gives all their attention to someone who isn't even their boyfriend yet." I snapped.

"Well, if you would just stop being jealous about me and Liam because you know that Louis doesn't want to be with you then maybe your life would be better" Zayn replied.

"You know you should be grateful. If it wasn't for me, you would be sitting here at this table with Liam not knowing he likes you. Honestly, my hard work went to waste if you guys aren't even dating yet. I mean what was the point? I should've let you guys just suffer miserably then maybe it would have saved me from being somewhere I'm clearly not wanted. I'm gonna go clear my head."

I stood up from my seat and started walking away. "Harry wait!" Niall called after me.

"I'm gonna go and try to calm him down but you two better fix things with each other alright" he said to Zayn before leaving to look for me.

I decided to walk to the football pitch because I needed some fresh air. I headed to the bleachers only to find someone already sitting there. I sat down next to them and realised it was Louis. "Hey Haz" he said without looking at me.

"How'd you know it was me? You didn't even look up" I asked him.

"I had a feeling it was you. And I could smell your scent."

"Really? What do I smell like?"

"Apples and some fancy cologne."

"What are you doing out here all alone?" I asked.

"What are you doing out here?"

"I wanted to have some fresh air. I wasn't gonna stay somewhere my existence wasn't appreciated."

Louis gave me a questioning look. "It's a long story" I said to him.

"Well I've got time. What's wrong Haz?"

I explained everything that happened in the cafeteria to him.

"Honestly I just think you guys need to talk about this. You both did say some hurtful things but I'm sure things will work out." he said, reassuringly.

"Thanks Louis, Niall's really lucky to have you as his friend."

"Well you're my friend too Harry. Just know I'll always be here if you want to talk okay?"

"Okay. What are you doing here by the way?"

"Niall said he wanted to sit somewhere else today and now I know what he meant by that. I got bored without him so I came here for some fresh air. It always calms me."

"We should get back inside. Lunch is probably over by now."

"Yeah, you're right. Let's go."

He got up from his seat and we walked back into the school. We parted ways as we walked to our next classes which we did not share together, sadly. I really wish I had more classes with Louis. Wait why do I even care about that anyways. I don't like him. Do I? Alright maybe I have teeny tiny and I mean tiny crush on Louis Tomlinson.

A/N: So Harry and Zayn had a fight but it lead to Louis and Harry getting closer in the process. Maybe it's a good thing they fought if you know what I mean ;-)
Anyways I hope you enjoyed this chapter.<333
