Use Somebody

Chapter 20:

Louis's POV:

Harry and I had been on four dates, I'm not entirely sure if me coming to the bakery every day counts or not. He enjoys me being there, so far he's just showed me where everything is and what's what. But he enjoys what he does and I can tell by the way that he demonstrates everything to me. He's an amazing person and I don't know how someone like Harry ended up with a person like Nick. I was going to drop by after work again but I feel that with my family coming down for my birthday I should go straight home. I wasn't going to stand Harry up, I'd see my family tomorrow for the little party I was having.

"Doctor Tomlinson, you know it's time for you to go home right? Doctor Stevenson has everything under control all weekend for you." One of the nurses told me.

I nod my goodbye to her and Doctor Stevenson and make a beeline for the door. I was excited to see Harry today most of all. I was planning to surprise him and take him somewhere nice to celebrate his successful surgery and removal of his sutures.

I pull up outside of his bakery and saw the lights weren't on, I really hope he didn't go home. Maybe the lights were off for a reason.

I try to open the door and it's locked. I tap on the window, he doesn't come to the window. I decide to just wait at the door for him to see me.

---

I wait about five minutes before I try to call him but his phone must be turned off because he didn't pick up. I hear the back door open and realize it must be Harry. He sees me in the window and gestures for me to wait a minute.

He disappears and then a couple minutes later he reappears and opens the door.

"Sorry, I had to deal with a personal problem." He says opening the door. "You can go out your coat in my office, if you want to."

I walk beck to where his office is and place my coat on his chair. I notice one of his desk drawers are open, I shouldn't be nosy but I looked in the drawer. I didn't think that I would find anything incriminating, I knew that he wants one for illegal stuff, but what I found was more interesting than I had thought it would be.

"What are you doing?" Harry said from behind me.

I turn around really quickly and knock the drawer closed with my leg.

"Nothing. I was just being a little nosy, the drawer was open and so I looked in it." I admit.

He walks over and must have known which drawer I was talking about because he opens the drawer and pulls out what I was looking at.

"Why?" I ask.

He looks at me and freezes. He places the box on the desk and stands in front of me.

"Because I have a period just like every other girl, but I'm a boy. I don't know why, I've never wondered. I thought I was just like my sister. I understand if you walk out the door right now and never come back. That's the personal problem I had. I ran to the corner store for more, I ran out and didn't realize until now. I started two days ago. It only last three days." He says looking down at the ground.

"I would never do that. I love you too much. This just makes me love you that much more." I say.

He looks up at me like he saw a ghost. "You love me?"

I nod. "More than anything. This was meant to happen. You and Nick breaking up and Aiden wanted me to find you."

I leaned over and kiss him. He falls apart every time I do. "Come to my house tomorrow. I'm having a small birthday party. Bring something to drink."
