My Step-Brother Is A Stripper || Larry Stylinson

"Sit down Harry, Mark and I here we would like to talk to you and Louis about something," Anne said. Harry cursed mentally and reluctantly, sat back in his chair, while Anne and Mark looked at their children with raised eyebrows "Do you want to say something, or do we talk?"

Harry looked at Louis, who shrugged and looked at the table again "What should we ever talk about? Do you know what we really should talk about? Climate change, that's something we should talk about, in fact, i'm going to do a research on just that, we have to safeguard our future" he continued, getting up from his chair.

"Louis?" He called it Mark "sit"

"The animals are dying dad, we have to do something and fast" exclaimed Louis.

"Louis" called his father "sit down"

Louis looked at Mark and snorted, then sat back down "I tried" Louis sighed shrugging.

"Nice try," his father said, extending his hand.

"Thank you. Years and years of training" the son smiled, squeezing and shaking it.

"Are you two done?" Anne asked, glaring at Louis and Mark.

"It's his fault" Said father and son in unison pointing fingers at each other.

Anne rolled her eyes and took Louis's packet of condoms out of her pocket "whose are these?" she asked pointing to the package.

Louis and Harry looked at Anne, without saying anything, and pointed at each other "that's not true, they're not mine!" Complained the hedgehog.

"Harry, you're 17, it's time to take your responsibilities," Louis said seriously to Harry.

Harry sighed in frustration, when Anne spoke "Louis I know they're yours, I just wanted to see what your reaction would have been" she told him "they're grapefruit flavored, Harry doesn't like grapefruit"

Harry raised his eyebrows and looked at Louis trying not to laugh "what?" The major asked when he saw Harry's amused look "I like grapefruit, what can I do with it" he shrugged.

Anne sighed and left the box of condoms on the table in front of the boys. "Gemma told us you took a shower together yesterday..." Harry's mother said.

The two step-brothers looked at Gemma, who was pretending to search for something on the floor.

Louis sighed and looked back at Anne "we weren't in the shower together, we were...um...wanted to save some time"

"Yes," Harry nodded.

"And why would you want to save some time?" Anne asked confused.

"So as not to waste water," Harry replied, "it all comes down to climate change in the end."

"Right? You know Harry, we should do a research on that topic, let's go do it?" Louis said to Harry.

Harry nodded and stood up "we really should do this. Sorry to interrupt our chat, I was enjoying it, but the world needs us" he said to his parents, ready to leave the kitchen, followed by Louis.

"Sit down," Anne demanded, "and if I hear about climate change again, I'll ground you."

Harry sat down huffing while Louis shook his head in mock disgust "The world is going to suffer because of you, you should feel guilty" he said, however he too sat down.

Anne sighed and closed her eyes to calm down for a moment. She then opened them again and looked at her son and her stepson. "Listen guys, I'm not judging you and I'm not angry at you" she reassured him "you are 17, it's normal at this age to start having experiences .."

"Oh god I can't do this" Harry whispered as he covered his face with his hands.

"You don't have to be embarrassed, and if you like each other and have started to take your relationship to the next step, I'm happy for you, but-"

"Mom, seriously, I don't want to hear this" Harry interrupted her "and there's absolutely nothing between Louis and I, you got it wrong"

"Harry you don't have to lie to us. I'm fine with you if you like boys, and I'm happy you two are using protection-"

"Kill me," Louis grunted as he banged his head on the table repeatedly.

"Mum, stop it" said Harry to his mother "I swear, there's nothing between Louis and I, and please don't start with the bees and flowers thing, I already know how it works, I don't need you to explain it again"

Anne sighed and looked at Louis "Is that true? There's nothing between you two?" she asked him.

Louis swallowed a lump of saliva and nodded "yes, there's nothing between us" he replied in a low voice

Mark raised an eyebrow and looked at his son. Anne shrugged and nodded. "Can we go now? We're late for school" asked Harry.

"Wait," Mark said, "I know my son well, and I know when he's lying. And he's lying."

Louis lowered his head and started playing with his hands "I'm not lying. There was absolutely nothing between Harry and I"

Mark shrugged and nodded "yes, maybe I'm wrong this time"

"Yes, you're wrong" nodded his son "can we go now?"

"Sure," Mark replied with an odd frown on his face "get ready for school"

All three practically ran out of the kitchen and each went back to their room. "I know my son well, and I know when he lies," Harry said, changing his voice, teasing Mark. "Apparently he doesn't know you that well," he laughed at Louis.

Louis nodded and took off his shirt to put on a clean one. Harry looked at Louis' body for a few seconds before dropping his gaze and looking at the floor.

The two boys finished dressing, left the house and walked together towards school. Once they arrived, the two part ways. Harry goes to Zayn and Liam, while Louis goes inside the school.
"Guys I want to die" said the curly as soon as he reached his two best friends.

Harry then told everything that had happened that morning to the two, and "too bad I wasn't there, I would have liked to have witnessed the scene. It would have been fun" whispered Zayn.

The bell rang and together they entered school for their first period. At the last hour Harry had the same time with Louis, and when he entered the classroom and saw Louis sitting alone at a desk, doing nothing, he walked over to him and sat next to him.

The eldest looked up and looked at Harry confused "Why are you sitting next to me?" he asked him.

Harry smiled and shrugged "you were all by yourself, and it was depressing"

"This is some kind of insult, you know that right?"

"Yes, I know" nodded the younger wrinkling his nose.

At that moment the professor entered and the lesson began. All the while Louis was taking notes, while Harry tried to distract and annoy him. When the bell rang, everyone walked out of the classroom, and Harry followed Louis.

While they were walking home they passed in front of a super market, and Harry stopped Louis "Wait a minute" he said "I'll be right back, I have to buy something, you stay here" he said before entering the supermarket.

Louis huffed and waited outside the market as Harry had told him for a few minutes, when the hedgehog returned carrying an envelope. "What have you bought?" He asked, starting to walk again.

Harry smiled at him, put his hand inside the envelope and when he pulled it out, he was holding a grapefruit. "Mom took away your grapefruit condoms that you like so much" he said passing him the fruit "at least you can always think of them now. Their sacrifice will not be forgotten" he said placing a hand on his heart and making a sorrowful voice.

Louis took the grapefruit and looked at Harry. "Haz," he called.

"Yes?" Harry asked playing dumb.

Louis looked up from the grapefruit to the curly hairde boy, "fuck you" he said, even though he couldn't block the small smile that formed on his face.
