"Just trying to help? Just trying to help?!" Zayn exclaimed, "you think just trying to help is take Louis' man and hug and kiss all over him?"
"I wasn't kissing him, okay? He was sad, he needed someone! I was that someone." Niall replied, trying to shed some light on the situation.
"Louis is that person, not you. Why haven't you tried to approach Harry before this?"
"Because." Niall said, looking at the ground and pulling a Slim Jim out his pocket, opening it and take a rather large bite.
"Not valid." Zayn said, crossing his arms.
"Because, Louis wasn't approaching Harry before."
"What." Zayn says, his arms dropping, "does that mean...?"
"I like Louis."
"Then why the fuck did you go to Harry?" Zayn asks, dumbfounded.
"Because, I thought, if I was friends with Louis friends, he'd have to be friends with me. Then we'd get closer, and I'd ask him out." The blonde explained, then took a big bite of the meat stick (excuse me😃).
"And you'd live happily ever after with two kids and golden retriever? Yeah, not gonna happen." Zayn rolled his eyes.
"Why not? Feelings come and go." Niall said, a hopeful smile trying to sneak its way onto his face.
"So does food." Zayn smacks the Slim Jim out of Niall's hand and walks away.
"A-And then I j-just ran away like a b-b-big, fat, annoying baby." Harry said, sobbing to his mother.
"Harry, you're not a big, fat, annoying baby. If I was your age in that situation, I'd run away too. I'm sure it'll all get cleared up soon." Ann said, pulling Harry closer to her.
"I'm such a B-Butt face. He'll never l-l-like me now." Harry weeped.
"Harry dear, of course he'll still like you. You're beautiful, sweet, caring, you listen. One blunder isn't going to absolutely obliterate all your good memories with him. If he's a good guy, he'll see pass this big mess, okay?" She said, swaying back and forth.
"Okay..."
"It was a misunderstanding, Louis, I swear." Zayn said with pleading eyes to Louis. "We came at the wrong time, no one else was there for Harry at the time!"
"What about Liam? Isn't Liam always by his side? What a coincidence when I finally see him, he's being hit on by some random dude on the football team!!" Louis said, taking a bite of his peanut butter and banana sandwich. He's stress-eating.
"Because, you know Liam and him had a big fight as well-"
"Harry and I didn't fight, it was a misunderstanding." Louis corrected with an almost full mouth.
"Ok, well Liam and Harry did fight, okay? Harry has literally nobody there for him right now. He's all alone. Don't you think he needs a friend to help him through this?" Zayn asked, widening his eyes a little and letting a small smirk makes its way to his face.
Louis thinks for a good minute. "You're right, but how the hell am I going to just walk up in his house, apologize, then we just live happily ever after with two kids and a golden retriever?"
Deja Vu hits Zayn so he's taken a back a bit. "You know Harry can't hold a grudge, but what about if you bring him flowers and something nice, you know? First let him simmer down, then we can go by him flower and some chocolate like it's Valentine's Day." The raven haired boy explained.
"You're right. How long does he need to simmer down though?"
"How about a day?"
I woke up and my head was hurting more than usual, probably from all the crying.
I got out of bed and once I got into the bathroom, I closed my eyes. I didn't want to see how and my face looked before I showered.
I stripped of my clothes and opened my phone. 5 missed calls from Liam, 2 texts from my mom, but none of them were from the person I wanted so desperately to talk to me. Why hasn't he called or texted me yet? Did he give up? I would give up on me, too.
I put my phone down and got into the shower then bathed myself in my strawberry body wash from Bath & Body Works.
I needed to stop sulking and get back into my happy peppy self. It's no use crying over spilled milk. But this is way worse than spilled milk, this is losing the one and only person who loved me in more than a friend way. A few tears prickled at my eyes, but I can't let them spill, I can't be a cry baby anymore.
I got dressed into a pink sweater and a white skirt, the most basic outfit in my closet that's not "boy clothes". I brushed my hair and walked down stairs. My mom was already sitting at the island in the middle of the kitchen. When she saw me she smiled sympathetically.
"Hi, sweetie, how are you doing?" Ann asked, walking up him and giving him a hug. "Do you need to stay home from school today?"
I told myself I wasn't going to sulk and moan all day, but fuck that. I nodded into her chest as she drew me closer.
