I woke up by the sound of knocking at the door. My head was aching terribly and my eyes appeared to be swollen from all the crying I did till 4 am in the morning.

I managed to get up from the sofa and discovered a new pain in my back from sleeping in an inappropriate posture. I started walking towards the door but stumbled into the ottoman hurting my little toe which made me scream out load. I heard a known male voice calling out my name from outside the door.

Oh it was Harry's voice I thought, he is probably the one knock the door, what do you mean by probably he is the one now open the goddamn door, a voice in my head dictated me.

I shook my head at the thought of so many voices in my brain and opened the door.

Harry was standing there holding two coffees, a large bag of bagels and a box of donuts. He invited himself in and started blabbering.

"Dear god James, what have you done to yourself."

I sulked with my head down and he ordered me to go freshen up while he prepares breakfast. I glanced between him and all the packaged food he had brought when he said 'prepares'.

To which he grinned and said, "Yeah yeah smartass you know what I mean, now go."

I went upstairs unwillingly to our bathroom. I couldn't have denied Harry even if I wanted to. He would have dragged me up here and made to do it anyways.

No I am not talking metaphorically, he is muscular and very authoritative.

Goshhh, maybe thats why I like May more, she is sweet and allows me to do anything I want. She spoils me to be honest. I remember one time when me and liv were visiting them, Harry and Liv refused to let me have any more popcorn as I already had 3 big bowls and they thought it was unhealthy for me but that wasn't the point I wanted more. So May poured another bowl for me asking me to ignore them and eat in peace.

A smile ran across my face remembering these little things. I was interrupted by Harry's voice calling me out.

"How long do you take James hurry up"

I quickly rinsed my mouth and washed my face with Liv's face wash it smelled like strawberries and her. My smile vanished and all I could feel was pain again.

I sprinted downstairs and Harry shouted at me to be careful which made me giggle.

Harry was a nice guy he was like the cool big brother/father to Liv, he spoiled her like May did to me. He and Liv were always rambling about how great chocolates are and how people who don't like chocolates are the worst then they would glare at me making me grin back.

To me Harry was a big brother, he cared for me deeply but treated me like a child, like a 20 year old would treat his 7 year old little brother, that was our relationship. But Harry was always there for me and we trusted each other a lot he was like family to me.

Let me phrase it again, he and May were family to me.

We sat down had coffee and donuts then he looked at me his eyes had concern and a little pity towards me which made my pain alive once again.

"James, you know how much you matter to me and May. May was worried sick for you last night she didn't sleep until I assured her multiple times that I would check up on you. She woke up early to cook something for you, I told her to rest but she insisted to at least make some popcorn for you." he let out a little laugh.

"Olivia cares for you no matter what, what you did was wrong I am not here to defend you but I do care for you James and you know you can share things with me. Let it out James you need it." he continued in a serious but affirming voice.

My heart sank, I had hurt Liv so bad but even then they both cared about me. Let's face it they maybe family to me but they are Liv's family first. I stared speaking and found my voice cracking up.

"I am so sorry Harry, I am sorry for causing trouble for you and May. I am sorry that Liv had to leave her own house. Please tell her that she should live here and I will move away. I am sorry for hurting Liv, you don't know Harry how much regret it. How much I want to hold her in my arms for once, hud her tight and tell her how much I love, how much she means to me. I want to see her smile. I just want to see her happy, but I ended up hurting her I made her cry Harry. How will I ever live with that. You don't know what I went through when I saw her face while she rode away from me in the taxi. You don't know how much hurt, disgust, anger and hate was there in her eyes when she saw me kis—" I gulped and held my head down not being able to look at Harry anymore.

Harry gave and a short timed hug and a look of assurance as if he wanted to tell me that everything will be back to normal but doubted saying it.

Maybe Harry didn't know what to do anymore. I mean most guys don't know how to comfort someone especially if it's another guy. Girls have that superpower though they somehow makes you feel better.

Anyhow Harry suggested that we play some music to distract ourselves, order a pizza and watch Age of ultron. I nodded in assurance to which he softly smiled and told me to keep strong and that it will eventually get better with time.

When the doorbell rang we were listening to 'The real slim shady by Eminem'  for the 11th time Harry is completely obsessed with the song which is ironic because his name's Harry and he doesn't even listen to Harry styles. Wait its not only ironic its a crime, its baaaaddddd and evil. Who doesn't listen to Harry fucking Styles !! I rolled my eyes to the thought and went to receive the pizza.
