-Harry-

Christmas is finally on it's way and I have a lot of plans. I am thinking of surprising Louis with a date, like one of those fancy ones you have in your home, the one with the romantic music and the candles, that kind. Louis and I are really good friends, but I have a different feeling when I am around him, it's way different from how I feel around the rest of the boys. When I am near Louis I get butterflies and I know I blush. I have always had a big crush on Louis since I laid eyes on him, he is just so perfect and dreamy, and small. I just want to cuddle him. I just wish he felt the same way I do, he has a girlfriend sadly, the perfect white girl Eleanor Calder. That girl needs her Starbucks, of coarse I would never tell her that to her face. Eleanor is really a nice girl, but I get really jealous when I see them together. I tried to hang out with them a few days ago and I just couldn't, my jealousy took over. I just wish it could be just Louis and I, not Eleanor, Louis, and the side friend Harry. We can't all get what we want though.

The noise of a car horn blared through the window, I think Louis was back from shopping with Eleanor. They have been gone for hours and that gave me some time to set up. I want this hang out (date) to be perfect, I really want Louis to like me like I like him. I dimmed the lights and turned on some music to lighten the mood. Louis began to unlock the door, I hurried and sat on the couch leaning my arm on the back. I fixed my fringe and kept my eyes on the door. Louis stepped in, I could barely recognize him because how covered he was bundled up with a scarf and coat, and this large gloves that look all oh so adorable. "Hey Lou, want to join me?" "What is this?" He asked setting down shopping bags. "Oh, I was just wondering if you would like to have a little hang out with me (date)?" "I would love to, but I promised Eleanor that I would help her decorate her Christmas tree". I clicked off the music and changed my position to sitting normal. "Oh, okay. That's fine. I guess I could just see if Liam still wants me to go to that Christmas party with him."

I looked down at me feet and sighed. I can never have a day where it is just Louis and I, never. He is always busy helping Eleanor or sitting on a chair in Starbucks for hours. I just wish he was mine and I wasn't just on the side lines... I watched as Louis walked into his room, I could tell he was in a rush to help Eleanor, so I decided just to call Liam and ask him about his Christmas party with Danielle. I dialed Liam's number hoping for an answer. "What's shaking Harry?" Liam said. "I was just wondering if you still were doing that Christmas party you were talking about?" "Uh, yeah, I am actually. I was just about to ask you if you wanted to come still". "Yeah I do, I am not feeling very happy today and I just want to get out of this flat". "Okay, well it starts in about a hour if you want to come, it's at my flat" "Alright, sounds good. I will be there" "K, see you later mate" I ended the call and went to my room to get ready.

I began to browse through my clothes, I needed something appropriate for this cold winter weather. "A-ha" I said finding a black blazer with a white t'shirt, and black jeans. I shut the door and quickly put on my selected outfit. I finished getting ready and put on some white converse. There was a buzz in my pocket, Liam texted me asking me where I was. I replied telling him I was on my way. Louis had already left to see Eleanor, he was definitely in a hurry.

I climbed the stairs until I met up with the door of Liam's flat, I knocked with my signature knock to let Liam know it was me. Liam opened the door, I eyed his red sweater with rudolph on it with Father Christmas pants. "What the hell are you wearing exactly Liam?" I asked giving the strange outfit selection a weird look. "You can never over do it, its Christmas Eve  for crying out loud". I raised an eyebrow. "I think you have out done it a little bit Liam". He laughed and welcomed me in. The Christmas classic 'Jingle Bells' filled my red ears. Niall was busy flirting with the snack table literally, he has been telling the white chocolate pretzels how amazing they are. Zayn was watching a Christmas movie with Andy.

"Hot cocoa Harry?" Danielle asked putting a festive mug in my face. "Uh, sure". I grasped the warm beverage from her hands and sat down next to Zayn. "Hey mate" He said smiling at me. "Hi.." I said in a sad tone. "What's the matter Haz, you are usually really jittery and happy at parties?" "Is it Louis again? Dude, you need to get use to the fact that he is with someone. I'm sorry". "I know, I just wish it could be just me and him you know. I really like Louis and I know he doesn't feel the same way. If only he did. Now I have to spend another Christmas alone". "You don't have to spend it alone, you have us and your family". "What I mean is, I don't have someone to share milk and cookies with, no one to kiss under the mistletoe". "What can you do?"

I didn't say anything after that, I just took sips of my hot chocolate and rested my feet on the coffee table. Why can't it just be Louis and harry?

--Louis--

I set down the cardboard box of Christmas decorations on El's sofa. "Do you think you can help me un-tangle these lights Louis?" She asked pulling at the object. "Here, let me do it. You should go check on those ginger bread men" "Good idea". El walked into the kitchen and I began un-tangling the lights.

I still feel a little bad about what I did to Harry, I could tell he worked hard to set up all those candles and picking the perfect song. i just promised El I would help her, and when I make a promise I have to keep it. I don't feel the same way Harry does about me, I know he has some sort of crush on me, it's obvious. That boy isn't very good at lying, I will tell you that.

--Harry--

"Do you want to play Just Dance with us Harry?" Liam asked holding a Wii remote. "Nah, I am not really in the mood". "If you say so". I watched as Liam and Niall pranced around the living room, I couldn't help but laugh at their movements, they were not really the best dancers in the world. I looked through the pictures I took with Louis while we were on a group vacation, god I missed this Louis. The single and free Louis. I sighed in a sad way and slipped my phone into my pocket. I folded my arms and leaned against the sofa continuing to watch Liam and Niall, weirdos.

Hi guys. I decided to write a Larry book because I never have had the thought to write one. Anyways, this is basically part one of the first chapter, I just wanted to see if people liked the book before I continued. I hope you liked it, I would love if you left some feed back, and also vote if you found it amusing. I wanted to start in 2011 so this book could be really long, there is a lot of Larry moments and it would probably take 4 years to name it all.

Anyways, I hope you like it. Make sure to vote and add to your library so you can know when I update. I also follow back so make sure to hit that follow button. :) xx
