Louis POV:
She ran up and started crying, and my heart instantly broke. I had only known her a short while, but I already felt like we were close friends. Or maybe.... a little more?
What the hell was I thinking? I have Eleanor... who I haven’t seen in over a month.
Well whatever; I loved Eleanor.
Zayn shot daggers with his eyes at Harry, and then got up to go after her.
Harry groaned and hit his head on the table. I was just about to say something when he threw his chair back and stomped into his room. Drama Queen.
I told Niall and Liam that I would go talk to him.
I opened the door to find Harry lying face down on his bed with feathers all over the floor. I assumed he murdered his pillow.
“Okay Lou look; if you’re here to chew me out, save it. I already know I’m a dick. I should never have said that to her.” He said, although it was very muffled due to his head being in the pillow.
“Well, yeah you are. But that’s not why I’m here....look, in case you haven’t noticed, Zayn kinda likes Tess. He looked pretty heated after you said that to her, and he got up and rushed to comfort her. So, my point is, that if you like her, tell him. Because otherwise, I don’t think he would have a problem going out with her,” I told him as he faced me.
He tried to argue, but I told he has to make a decision. He could come to me with anything, but he had to do this on his own.
He thanked me, and gave me one of his signature bear hugs.
I had just told my best friend to possibly give up the girl he liked so that my other best friend would have a chance with the girl he liked. I smiled at him, but it was forced. I closed the door behind me and ran my fingers through my hair.
I liked Theresa.

She looked up from her phone, “Uh... I need somewhere to stay for the next three weeks.”
Well that escalated quickly.
I turned to Harry as he just looked at her in shock. She quickly explained that her mom was going on a unexpected business trip to Nigeria, and she needed to stay somewhere where she wasn’t alone. Apparently, Tessie’s mom trusted Harry enough and wanted to know if she could stay with him.
Interesting...Harry has already gotten to know her mom....
Tess blushed, “I can always crash at Chastity’s or-”
“No. You can stay here. Tell your mom it’s alright with me,” Harry said without emotion in his voice, not making eye contact with any of us.
“Oh.... Thanks,” Tess said looking at Harry.
I peeked at Zayn, and even though I could tell none of the others saw, he reached down and squeezed her hand, and she squeezed back. Well isn’t he lucky?
Niall cleared his throat, “Well Harry, we were going to ask if WE could spend the night, but since you have company, I guess we sh-”
“Don’t be silly. I’m sure Theresa wouldn’t mind you guys staying too.” He said smiling at all of us.
“Uh, tomorrow is Monday though, we have school,” She quietly said, trying not to sound rude.
Liam laughed, “Tomorrow is President’s Day silly! We all have off.”
