"So what happened?" Ruby asks. "There was a pipe burst in the kitchen. But because it's so far at the back it took a while to really break out."
"Shit." They didn't really have much energy anymore. "Yeah also they've uhm, they've blocked off the highway we need to get home and I can't drive six hours on back roads tonight so, we're here. You all have separate rooms- Marz does she look like somebody we know to you? I can't figure it out."
"Uhm, I'm not sure. She just looks- like Hero." I huff. "She looks like somebody."
The next few days we're going to be hard to deal with. "Why'd they cut it off?"
"I don't know it's on the news probably. I think something about a tv show or, some LA bullshit." They all nod. "Okay. Harry are you okay? Your mouth is bleeding."
"Yeah no my dad got me before and I just, didn't have time to deal with it. It's fine. All my teeth are here and my jaws fine. Just get some rest. We'll leave tomorrow."
"It's a good thing we brought spare clothes." Louis laughed, standing up from the bed. "Yeah. Thank you Hero." Tyler added. "I am pretty smart. Okay, goodnight then."
"Night." Louis mumbled out, I waved them off. Making my way down to my room. Grabbing the bottle I'd hidden in my car, downing it before I could even see what it was.
I couldn't really do much once it had set in. My shirt was unbuttoned and my blazer was somewhere on the floor.
Brushing my teeth was humbling to say the least.
Now I was just drunk and pacing my room, trying to wrap my head around everything.
Opening the door and contemplating on whether or not my next move was a good one. I didn't give myself much time to think about it, I was knocking on his door with my head.
Falling into him once the door opened. "Save me." I mumbled out. "What?" He sounded drunk too so he wasn't much better than me.
"I need saving. Save me, please. Shoot me, kiss me. Both would feel the same. Please." My chest was burning. "Harry you're drunk."
"You're drunk. I need a cigarette. Or death. Please save me." Kissing his cheek, I graze my lips over his. "You need to sleep." He whispered. "I need you. I need whatever you have that makes you so good. I need that, I need to be needed. I can't do this anymore."
"Harry I can't kiss you whilst you're like this." We both stumbled back. "Please. It's all I have. Please. Please just let me have you, I need you, I need this or I'll fucking lose my mind."
He rests his hands on my chest. "Harry you don't want me. You're drunk."
"One truth one lie. Please let me kiss you. Say no and I'll leave, you tell me you don't want this and I'll go." He lets out a shaky breath as I undo his shirt. "I can't do this to you."
I'm a pathetic little mess against his hands and I'm liking it. My life slipping away from me and leading itself right into his hands.
Pushing my hands into the back of his hair, I kissed him hard, needing some sort of distraction to get myself out of my own head.
Louis was the only thing in my head besides everything that's wrong with my life. "If you kiss me drunk one more time I'm going to kill you."
"I would kiss you all the time if I had the guts to do it. My life is falling apart and you're the only thing I have that stops me from killing myself, I'm begging you please just let me have you." Pressing my thumb against his teeth I pull him mouth open.
"I want to be what you are, I want you to give me what you have. I need to be- I want to be someone you like."
His hand came up and I felt my life flash before my eyes. I've had so many people hit me to push me away, almost all of them.
But his hand was just rested on my cheek with his thumb brushing under my eye. "I like you now. You don't need to change for people to like you Harry."
"Not people. I don't care about people. Louis I just- I need you, all the time." He looks up at me, seeming like he was listening. "If you were sober you wouldn't be saying any of this."
"Not because I don't mean it. I can't even think about it, it's getting worse. Don't look at me like that, you can get away with anything if you look at me like that."
"There's some alternate universe where this is the opposite and I'm the one begging for you to like me." Kissing him gently felt a lot nicer, he seemed to like it too. "You're so pretty."
He tries to pull himself back, so I hold him close. Pulling him back for a moment, smiling and watching. "So pretty."
"But I-" cutting him off with a kiss might be my new favourite thing. I should do this more.
"Don't feel okay? After, everything that happened to you. Is this okay? I'm sorry, i completely forgot." I step back, his hands holding my belt loops and pulling me back in.
"It's fine. I'm fine, I'm better now." I nod. "I need you to promise me." I don't think I've ever been this scared in my life. "I'm okay."
"Louis that's not what I asked." I lift his chin up. "I can't promise anything. I just know that I will be okay. We need to sleep, you need to sleep more than any of us."
I kissed his cheek, moving quickly out of his room to save myself the stress. "Idiot."
**
"Okay, I can't just get you these things by name Louis." He huffs. "I'll go with you."
"Ew, no. Just show me pictures." He unbuckles his seatbelt. "I'll go with you." He repeats. I got out of the car, walking quickly enough that he would be behind me.
He dragged me back, walking me beside him. "Stop doing that. Pissing me off." The others were in here somewhere. They were just further along than we were. "Hurry up."
"You're not the most fun person to shop with." I hummed, resting my head on his shoulder, almost falling asleep. "So I've been told."
"You want a drink?" He asked. "My drinks are on aisle 6." I mumbled out. "Oh. Okay, food?" I grab the gummy worms. Walking slowly down the aisle. "Do you not get hungover?"
"Only if I'm happy." I sigh. He laughs. "So that's a no then?" I shake my head. "No, Louis I do not get hangovers."
"How come you can't be happy and drunk?" He stops by the fridges. "If I was happy I wouldn't drink. I can't even be happy and sober, you're asking a lot of me right now baby."
"No I just- this is an aisle of bleach." He frowns. "Mhm. You asked."
"It's a good thing I got you a drink anyway." I hold my hand over my heart. "So kind of you."
"You're really pissing me off today. I might make Hero swap with me." My life would've fallen apart. "Funny."
It was getting worse, last week I could've managed it. But now I think I would've actually lost my mind. "Oh, hi guys." Hero said with a smile. "Hi, you wanna swap cars? He's annoying me."
"Yeah?" My insides were dying. My life could end at this very moment and this would be my own personal hell. "Now you can annoy her."
"I will ruin your life." He blows me a kiss. "I look forward to it." I let out a huff, walking away back to the car. Waiting by Rubys car watching him smile with his head tilted.
"Any particular reason you're not in your car?" Cocky bitch. "Yeah, you've got my keys."
"Hm." He smacks them into my hand, i throw him over my shoulder, his legs kicking with his arms punching me. "Put me down!"
"Shut up." Throwing him into the passengers seat, I lock the car, making my way over to my side. I know I was about to be ignored, but I was fine with it.
"Do you like cigarettes after sex? There's only four songs but they're on the playlist," He huffs. "What about asap rocky?" Nothing.
"Okay fuck you then. I'll play whatever I want, I don't care." He looked pretty in this light, his eyes were always pretty but this light made them look pretty as ever.
