Snow littered the streets of London as the boys made their way to the release of 'Holiday Spirit' a charitable Christmas album for the One Wish Foundation. Zayn, Niall and Liam took one car while Harry and Louis took the other. Louis knew something was up with Harry, something not quite right.
"Talk god dammit!" He said "This awkward silence is killing me."
"I have nothing to say though." Harry replied knowing that Louis was dying inside.
"I know what i did was wrong, I'm sorry. How many times do i have to say it before it finally sinks into you that I am sorry?" Louis started getting worked up.
Silence.
"Jesus you're arrogant, you know that? I have tried my hardest to be civil and nice and act like nothing happened so we could just get on with ..."
"But it did happen!" Harry raised his voice, staring out the passenger window at the mist that blanketed Hyde Park. Everything was just a blur though, especially with the speed Louis was driving at. There was the awkward silence again.
"I don't get why we can't just talk about this without fighting." Louis tried to ease the tension.
"You don't have the right to choose if I fight with you." He snarled. "You decided that when you left the tour and flew halfway across the world just to be with Eleanor on Halloween."
Louis pulled over.
"Harry, I know I stuffed up okay? I have moved on and I would love it if you did too."
"It was Halloween Lou! Halloween!" His face seemed to swell with rage. "Not to mention we had to postpone the Wellington show because you turned up late."
Louis glared, saying nothing just staring at Harry. He had no words for the situation. Then out of nowhere Harry unbuckled his seatbelt, picked up his duffle bag off the floor and turned to louis.
"I love you. But I need to know if the feeling is mutual." He opened the door. Louis was shocked, speechless.
"Harry you'll freeze! Just stay in the car please." louis pleaded. Harry stepped outside the car.
"I'll talk to you later. Tell the boys I felt sick and I'll see them tomorrow." He shut the door and began the hike across the park. With every crunching step came the though 'What the fuck did I just say?

Louis pulled up outside Bush Studios to find fewer fans than normal. 'Probably the cold weather he thought' but that's never really stopped them before. He sprinted through the crowds and into the warm to find the rest of the boys huddled around the T.V.
"Whats going on?" He asked.
"Just the riots back home." Niall sniffed.
"Oh. Are your family okay?" Louis asked, pouring himself a cup of tea.
"Yeah, fine. Just a bit worried when they are going to stop. Why are you so late?" Niall questioned.
"And where's Harry?" Liam interrupted.
"Well..." Louis Began "If you must know, Harry felt sick on the way here, nerves I suppose. So I dropped him home and that is why I am late."His throat became dry just remembering what Harry had said. He sipped at his tea.
Like a sixth sense, the boys knew something was up. The door backstage swung open and in stepped Paul.
"Right guys, the media are amped so all you need to do is smile and look good." He said
"Thats easy." Zayn said "I just need to smile." He winked.The boys laughed and Louis forgot all about the ride there.
"Shit! Where's Harry?" Paul asked.
'Fuck' thought louis.
"Sick" Niall said grabbing Louis' shoulder. "Ae Louis?"
"Yeah" Louis mumbled.
"Alright, well you boys will have to go on without him. Just be prepared for the media onslaught." The boys were warned.
The four of them plus Paul walked through the door, down the corridor, up the stage stairs and into the light strike of camera flashes. Out of the crowd a voice bellowed
"Louis, what do you make of the Larry alligations?"
Louis' head spun and down he went. Fainted.
