Harrys POV:
Somehow Liam got us checked out of the hospital early and now me and Ni were back on the road to my mum’s house. I was sitting in the back of her car cuddled up with Ni trying to stay awake the hour drive back, it was hard but I managed. We would’ve been in my car but it got totaled in the car crash so we were riding with my mum. Once we got back to the house, I took Ni straight up to my room, changed into fresh clothes and snuggled up with him on the bed and took a much needed nap. A few hours later, I had to detangle myself from Niall; once I successfully did I walked downstairs and found my mum in the kitchen cooking dinner. It smelt amazing and of course being me had to take a sample taste which only got me slapped.
“Harold, go nibble on other food” My mum said and smiled at me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and hugged her from behind. I’m a mummy’s boy what can I say! “Sorry mum but it looks so good and I had to taste it for you, you know to make sure it wasn’t poisonous” she only rolled her eyes at me and continued cooking. I jumped up on the counter watching her cook while thinking of something to do with Niall tomorrow. “Mum I think I’m going to take Niall out, give him a look around town.” “Ok sweetheart, just be careful tomorrow”
Louis’ POV (During the Hospital)
Liam left Zayn and me alone in the same house with the only warnings: don’t go in my room and don’t burn the house down. That was it. He should know me better than to say stay out of something, but then again I never listen to him when he’s here anyways. I was bored, Zayn was in his room so I decided to go in there and bug him.
I ran into his room and jumped on the bed and curled into him. He gave me the ‘what are you doing look’ and I just smiled up at him.
“Zaynie I’m bored can we do something please”
“And what does the Tommo want to do” I shrugged, a minute later I had this smirk on my face knowing what to do. “Louis I know that smirk what are you thinking about?”
“Nothing other than going in Liam’s room and messing it up a bit and moving his stuff” With that I jumped off Zayn’s bed and ran into Liam’s. I looked around making a face at how clean and organized it was. Liam was a clean freak! I heard Zayn walk in, probably to “supervise” me. Walking into his closet I saw a safe, why in the world would Liam keep a safe in his closet and what was in it. I was bound and determined to find out. “Zaynie do you know how to open a safe?”
“Why”
“There’s a safe in here and I just want to take a look inside pleaseeeee can you open it”
“No Louis, you are not going through Liam’s things, especially if it’s in a safe”
“Ohhhh come on Zaynie, aren’t you just a little curious like me” I turned around and jumped a little seeing Zayn standing right there in my face. When did he get over here? I looked him up and down and quickly turned around blushing. I can’t have these thoughts about him, he’s my best mate and there is not a chance on this planet I could get Zayn as my own. Head shut up will ya.
“Louis, fine I’ll do it” I heard the right, right? Apparently I did as he moved in front of me, knelt down and started working on getting the safe open. Once open I plopped my butt on the ground and started pulling things out of it. Liam is a weird character. One thing stood out and it was a black bag tied at the top, untying it and dumping the contents out a journal fell out. Of course I had to see who it belonged to and what was written in it. Sure it was Liam’s I opened up the cover and three used blades fell out of it. Wide eyed I looked up at Zayn. “Liam couldn’t be, could he?” Zayn asked, wide eyed himself. I shook my head not wanting to believe it. Turning the next page I found out it was baby Nialler’s. “Zaynie its Niall’s” I looked back up at him with a frightened face. “Has Niall been cutting and why is he doing it Zayn?” Zayn looked down and told me to put the journal back where it belonged. I couldn’t do it I wanted to know. Opening up to a center page, I begged Zayn to let me read just one paragraph, he just kept saying that I shouldn’t but of course I didn’t listen. While we were arguing over it I actually read a few sentences. I couldn’t get past the third sentence on that page. Frightened I threw everything back in the bag, threw everything back into the safe, sealed it back up and ran downstairs, curling into a ball onto the couch, afraid to move.
I felt Zayn wrap his arms around me and pull me into his lap rocking me a bit. “Louis, babes, what’s wrong?” I shook my head, afraid of looking up. We sat in silence for a while before I finally looked up at him, dead in the eyes.
“Zayn please, tell me the truth”
“Niall’s been cutting for a while babes, and we don’t know why, he doesn’t talk about it.” He said what I was afraid of. Our baby Niall was hurt inside and there’s no way of finding out unless he opens up. But knowing him, he won’t say a word about anything.
The rest of the night I just sat in Zayn’s lap curled up in his embrace watching movies. After about the fifth movie Zayn spoke for the first time in hours. “Louis, have you ever felt something towards someone that you really shouldn’t?” I simply nodded and looked up at him. He was starring off into space and you could tell he was thinking hard about something, it was like he was having an inner battle with himself. “When have you felt like this?” What was he trying to get at? Does he know I like him and want to be his or something?
“Uhm, right now actually, why Zayn?” He quickly smirked and looked at me.
“Is that so? And who is this person?”
“Someone that I’m really close to, that I know I can’t have because they’ll never like me back”
“How would you know, just tell them it might work out”
“I can’t do it”
“Why?” SOMEONE MAKE HIM STOP! Why am I even opening my big mouth to him? Harry’s the only one that I talk to about this stuff, heck he’s the one I talk about everything to. I bit my lip and looked down not wanting to answer that question but of course Zayn pushed me. Mumbling my answer as a “because he’s straight” I turned bright red and hopping he wouldn’t hear it. But of course he did. He lifted my head so I would look at him. “Louis who is this guy you like? And don’t tell me it’s no one I heard you say he’s straight, who is it, I won’t judge you I promise”
Again I mumbled my answer. “You, Zayn.” With that I quickly moved off his lap and went to head upstairs as quick as I could. Before I could even reach the stairs Zayn grabbed me, pinned me against the wall and kissed me. It took me a minute to even know what was happening but once I realized what was going on I started to kiss him back. Everything started getting heated and all my clothes were in the middle of the living room, Zayn’s shirt was off and he was on his knee’s sucking me off. I was a moaning mess trying so hard not to thrust into him, but when he started sucking harder and I was close, I bucked into him wanting more. He went faster and harder, even deep throating me before I finally came. He licked me clean, came back up and kissed me again, leaning his forehead on mine he smiled. I couldn’t help but smile back at him. The guy I have been wanting, I finally got.
“Took you awhile to say that”
“W-what do you mean, it took me awhile?” I was confused.
“Louis, I’ve known for a while about you and your little crush, I was waiting on you to confirm it” My face again for the third time tonight turned a bright red. God he was good, and I need to learn to keep my feelings hidden for a while, but hey now I know Zayn likes me. I smiled and looked into his eyes processing things.
“What are you smiling about?”
“I’m just happy again. I someone I fell in love with a long time ago and just figured out he loves me as well” He kissed me again and smiled. Picking me up bridal style, he carried me up to his room, layed me on the bed and held me close. I fell asleep that night with a smile on my face and quite comfortable. I can get quite used to this if you ask me.
