We were young and I was so naive
But in my head that's how it had to be
- All along by Louis Tomlinson (Unreleased)
6 Years ago, 2014.
Doncaster.
When Louis rushed to the bathroom he wished only one thing, today was a nightmare and he wanted to wake up.
Today is their day 8th Grade farewell party which was thrown by a rich kid's parents in their class. At the age of 14, everything seemed to be blissful until the stupefaction came through.
It's not a club, it's an party hall which shouldn't be tough to find the bathroom. Louis didn't think that other people would also use the bathroom.
"Shit" Louis cussed as he bump into the smaller boy when he opened the big ass bathroom door.
"Sorry," the opposite person apologised but Louis didn't care to reply. His breath was uneven, his head was spinning and his eyes were shutting him out
"Are you alright?" The curly-headed boy asked with concern.
"I- I-" Louis stumbled and pressed his back to the wall and fell to his knees.
"Hey!! Breathe okay! Just Breathe!!"
"I can't- can't-Uh- breathe" Louis tried to speak
"Okay, Rockstar! Just follow me! Like this- Breath in-Fff- Breath out- Ufff-" Harry tried to teach which Louis followed.
They did that for quite a moment until Louis was able to breathe even.
"Here you go! Are you alright now?" Harry asked as he sat near Louis with his back pressed on the wall.
"I'm fine! Thank you" Louis smiled at the stranger
"So care to explain what happened?"
"I- uh- I had a panic attack," Louis said
"I can see that! What's the reason behind it? Want to share? You don't have to if you are not comfortable" Harry said and adjusted his falling curly hair
"You're hair looks messy" Louis smiled
"I know it's Ew" Harry smiled
"I like it messy"
Louis wants nothing but to poke the smaller kid's dimple and touch his curls.
"I'm Louis"
"I'm Harry" Harry smiled
"Uh- Are you wearing make-up?" Louis asked
"Yes! A bully kid put it on me. I came here to wipe it but It looks good on me so" Harry shrugged his tiny shoulders
"What is your age kid? What are you doing here?" Louis asked with amusement
"I'm here with my sister Gemma. She's the caretaker for this party" Harry said
"Oh- You are Gemma's sweet little brother"
"I'm not little," Harry said with annoyance
"Whatever you say curly" Louis smiled
Harry rolled his eyes.
"Can I tell you a secret curly?" Louis asked and placed his Head on Harry's shoulder.
Louis didn't know why but Harry's heartbeat made him feel vulnerable and open up.
"I- I kissed a boy" Louis said and a loud silence followed between them
"Okay! So?" Harry asked
"Uh- I kinda liked it," Louis said with doubt.
"So that caused you a panic attack?" Harry tilted his head to Louis.
"Yeah!" Louis said and looked into Harry's eyes. They can hear the music from outside
"So just to be clear! You're saying this to me because I'm wearing makeup and you thought I wouldn't judge you? Am right?"
"You are a pissant Curly" Louis laughed and shoved Harry away playfully.
"Come on! Get up" Harry pulled Louis and they both stood up.
They both got on their feet and Harry started to dance with Louis.
I Will Survive was banging outside, they didn't even wonder why there were speakers inside the bathroom maybe to prove them they are rich.
They danced their ass off and shouted the lyrics at the top of their lungs just to pull in closer. Harry cupped Louis's face and said
"We will survive"
Louis didn't know he should feel sad for them because one got bullied and another got a panic attack but Harry's never-give-up attitude made Louis say it back.
"We will survive" Louis smiled but couldn't help but ask
"You know it's a breakup song right?"
"Uh- Hello? I'm trying to look at the bright side here" Harry rolled his eyes while Louis hugged him tightly and promised himself that he would never ever leave this boy behind.

Present,
London.
Louis can't find the words to thank Niall because he was generous enough to let Louis take their Car to drop off Harry at his home or to thank the random girl he was hitting.
"Are you good enough to walk to your dorm?" Louis asked when Harry closed the car door
"Once men used to walk their partner home" Harry sighed and said
"Anyways! Thank you, Louis"
"Just to clear things up! We are not partners and I'm going to walk you to your room" Louis said and walked with Harry, helping him here and there when Harry stumbles.
They reached Harry's room door and it was Louis's time to say goodbye. Louis can't put his fingers on what or why is the reason for his upcoming words
"You know we shared our first kiss like this place- Uh- Door"
"How can I forget! It was our first date" Harry chuckled
Thinking of the memories made Louis feel like time hadn't passed that much yet it did. Nearly six whole years have passed since they first met. It's making Louis anxious about how once he thought that He and Harry come as a package thing but now they both are leading a life without glancing at each other.
