Coming Out Of My Shell (And The Closet)~ Larry Stylinson

Chapter One

*Harry's POV*

I sat completely still. Louis was asleep, snuggled up close to me on the couch. Louis had drifted off with his head in my lap while we'd been watching a film. Liam grinned over at me when he noticed my motionlessness.

"Asleep?" He asked

I nodded in confirmation. Liam laughed.

"I don't want to wake him up." I said slowly

"We can see that, mate." Zayn said, ruffling my hair and handing Liam his bowl of popcorn as he walked past.

Liam was at the other end of the couch that Louis and I had occupied for the past few hours, when we had first started our film marathon. About halfway through, Lou had fallen asleep, his usual mischievous grin replaced with a peaceful expression, one barely ever seen on Louis' face. Zayn sat down on the chair next to Niall's. Niall was carefully picking apart a pomegranate, meticulously separating every seed before he would eat it. Leaning over, Zayn took a handful of the fruit, causing Niall to shoot him a dirty look.

"What?" Zayn asked, smirking

I rolled my eyes and looked at Liam.

"Come on. Zayn's back, he gave you your popcorn, now play the film." I said

Liam pressed the play button and I nodded.

"Thanks."

"Harry.. Stop talking. Your voice is deep. It rumbles your chest." Louis mumbled sleepily

"Sorry." I whispered, "Go back to sleep."

I pulled the blanket closer around him and smoothed his hair down gently. Louis caught my hand and held it against his cheek, going back to sleep quickly.

"Awww." Zayn cooed

"Say hello to twitter!" Liam said, pulling out his iPhone

I smiled at the camera and Liam took a few pictures.

We watched a few more films and one by one, the other boys fell asleep.

After a while, my eyes got heavy and I fell asleep too.

"Harry. Harry. Wake up."

Someone was shaking my shoulder gently. I groaned and rolled away from whoever it was.

"Harry. Liam and Zayn made breakfast."

"Made it? I highly doubt that." I said, rolling back over and opening one eye

"Well, they got it at least. Almost got mobbed too, they said." Louis smiled

"Oh. Well, give me a second and I'll be right there."

"I'll dish you up."

"Okay.." I said, sitting up and stretching

Louis ran to the dining room and I went to the bathroom. I washed my face, fixed my hair, and brushed my teeth before going out to the table.

I sat between Louis and Niall.

"Well, look who's up!" Liam smirked

"Hello, sleeping beauty." Louis said sarcastically

"I wasn't the one who fell asleep at ten!" I said, sitting down and glaring at Lou

"I was kidding, calm down curly!"

"Vas happening, Harrah? " Zayn raised an eyebrow at me, taking a bite out of a strawberry

"Well, currently I'm wondering how Nialler manages to be so small but still eats more than the rest of us." I said, taking a big bite of eggs, and glancing at Niall's overflowing plate.
