I love him (L.S.)

Chapter 5

Louis

Harry's eyes soon caught mine. He quickly stood up and dashed for the restroom. I wanted to follow but he wouldn't have been too happy with it.

Was Harry gay? No, no he couldn't be. He looks like the person who attracts all the girls in the world. The definition of a straight man. But what was all that about.

I slowly got up from my seat taking a quick glance at Niall. His eyes still glued on the screen. I rolled my eyes and went towards the restroom.

Standing in front of the door, I hesitated to knock. What if Harry just goes off at me. Maybe he's embarrassment would turn into anger? But I needed to know he was okay?

I had this weird urge to tell him that everything is okay and that he didn't need to be embarrassed. He didn't need to hide. I raised my fist to knock on the door but a muffled sound made me stop.

For a moment I thought that was a moan and Harry was wanking. But when the sound came again, I could confirm that he was crying.

A part of me broke and I didn't know why. I turned the doorknob and it surprisingly wasn't locked. I rushed in to find Harry sitting against the bath tub; Hair free from the bun, skin tinted red, lips wobbling, tears flowing.

He was an absolute mess.

"Oh my god, Harry! What Happened? Why are you crying?" I rushed over to kneel beside him.

He started sobbing harder. "I'm so sorry louis. So so sorry. I'm such an idiot. I'm sorry." Why was he apologising? What happened? I was so confused.

"Harry, please calm down and tell me what's bothering you." I was desperate to know what caused this break down. I would have never imagined seeing Harry on the bathroom floor, crying his heart out.

"I'm such a pervert. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for it to happen, Louis! I'm so fucking sorry. Oh my god I'm such a creep. A pedophile. How did I get hard with two kids next to me?!" He started rambling.

"Okay first off, We aren't kids. I'm 16 and Nia-"

"SIXTEEN louis! That's so young. I'm such a pervert. Zayn is going to fucking kill me!"

"CALM DOWN HARRY!" I needed him to calm down. I needed him to listen to what I was saying.

There was a moment of silence before I continued to speak.

"Listen...It was the movie that had an impact on you. You didn't get hard thinking about either of us. So, there's no reason for you to feel like a pedophile. And... I- I completely understand what got you hard. You don't have to feel disgusted. I...I got hard too."

I don't know what I was thinking when I said that but the moment the words came out of my mouth, my cheeks turned a dark shade of red. I avoided his eyes and looked to the ground but I could feel his stare.

Before he got to say anything Niall called out to me. "Lou? Lou, where are you?" I quickly got up and left the bathroom, leaving harry alone to freshen up.

"Lou, mum called she wants me home. I'll see you at school on Monday." He said while I approached him. He gave me a quick hug before leaving through the front door.

I sighed and settled back on the couch. Once I turned the TV off, I patiently waited for Harry to be back.

A few minutes passed before I heard the bathroom door shut. I snapped my head in the direction to find Harry looking like he tried his best not to make any noise.

Maybe he was planning to leave without me noticing? It was impossible though. He had to walk past me eventually to get to the front door.

Harry awkwardly shuffled toward the couch and took a seat on the other end. It didn't seem like he was going to talk soon.

I sighed. "Are you okay now?" I asked softly, so that I don't startle him. He hesitated before answering.

"Yeah...Yeah I'm okay." He kept his gaze fixed on the floor, still looking ashamed. With a sigh I moved closer to him. Only for him to move further away, pressing into the armrest. This shocked me. He was trembling. I slowly moved away and apologised.

We sat there with tension filling the air for about another 10 minutes before the door bell rang.

Zayn was back.

I slowly got up and walked to the door. I opened the door to find Zayn with a huge smile and a large bag in his hand. He gave me a tight hug before walking to the living room.

He jumped on the couch and gave Harry a toothy grin. Something really good must have happened for Z to be this happy. Maybe he got a new modeling project?

I doubt was soon answered. "GUYS GUESS WHAT!?" I raised my eyebrow indicating him to continue. "I'm going to be on the GQ magazine cover! THIS IS SICK!!" He exclaimed, jumping in his seat.

"OH MY GOD Z!! THIS IS BIG NEWS!" I cheered as I jumped into his arms. He lifted me, spinning us before falling back onto the couch. We laughed for a couple seconds before it died down.

I placed my hand on his cheek while i was still in his arms, on his lap. "I'm really proud of you big bro. Really really proud."

His face brightened with a smile. "That means so much to me kiddo." He said, kissing my forehead. "I love you." I looked at him, eyes filled with admiration.

"Congrats Zayn." Harry finally spoke up after our little moment ended. Zayn thanked him before commenting that his voice sounded weird. I know its from the crying but he doesn't need to. "I think I'm coming down with a cold. It's best if I leave. We'll catch up some other time yeah?" He said before getting up the leave.

"Alright mate. Take care. Thanks for staying today. Means a lot." Harry gave us a cute wave before leaving.
