A soft beeping rung in his ears, Niall managed to roll over and shut off his alarm clock. He stretched his arm out patting the opposite side of the bed. Niall's eyes fluttered opened to find that Harry was no longer there. Niall sat up rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He slipped from the bed and trudged down the hallway into the kitchen.

"Good morning honey, how did you sleep?" His mums voice rang in the kitchen.

"Um, good- Is Harry still here?" Niall asked curiously.

"Haven't seen him this morning." She said turning back to tend to the stove.

"Oh.." Niall's voice filled with disappointment. He wondered where Harry had run off to.

*~*

Niall searched through his locker for his Calculus textbook. It might help if he cleaned it every now and again. Finally he recovered his book, throwing it into his backpack. He heard a commotion on the other end of the hallway. With curious eyes Niall peered down the hall. Approaching was Harry... And Louis. Harry had his arm slung around Louis' shoulders while Louis gripped Harry's hip. Louis gently whispered something to Harry, making him burst into laughter.

"Look who it is Harry, it's your little boyfriend!" Louis spat leaning closer into Harry.

The two continued to laugh as Niall awkwardly stood in front of them.

"I guess I will leave you to it Haz." Louis gave a quick kiss to Harry and he disappeared down the hall.

Harry joined Niall beside his locker, casually leaning against the wall.

"I woke up this morning and you weren't there... Why did you leave?" Niall asked trying not to look into Harry's eyes. Niall's grip on his bag became tighter as Harry stared at him.

"I went home to get cleaned up for school, something wrong?" Harry said sternly, keeping his eyes planted on Niall.

"I- Its just you didn't leave a note or wake me up?" Niall gently closed his locker waiting for Harry to reply.

"Ni, what's the big deal? You were sleeping I didn't want to wake you and-" Harry was cut off by the bell.

"We better get to class then..." Niall said slowly turning away. Harry grabbed his wrist pulling him back. He quickly looked up and down the hallway before placing a kiss to Niall's cheek, and quickly rushing off in the opposite direction.

Niall unlocked his car, throwing his bag into the passenger seat. He cranked the car and searched for a song on his iPod. A loud knock came on the window, Niall turned to find his boyfriend knocking on the window. Niall rolled the window down, surprised to see him.

"How was your day?" Harry asked leaning over the side of the car.

"It was okay, um, how was your day?" Niall asked suspicious. Harry never met up with Niall after school, let alone ask how his day was. Maybe he wanted something? What if he was hiding something?

"It was alright, really long." Harry replied tapping his fingers along the edge of the window. Niall didn't speak, he didn't know what to say. The silence made him uncomfortable.

"Haz?" Niall questioned looking into Harry's eyes.

"Yeah?" Harry replied blankly.

"Want to go to dinner with me tonight? You can pick where we go." Niall offered with a smile.

"I,uh- I can't Ni. I'm sorry, tonight is family night at my house. But I would love to some other time." Harry muttered biting his lip.

"It's ok, I, uh, I understand." Niall said buckling his seat belt.

"We'll, I've got to get home, bye babe. I'll text you later tonight." Harry leaned down and cupped Niall's face as he kissed him goodbye. Niall's lips formed into a grin as he watched Harry trudge away to his car.

Niall ruffled his hair as he lazily opened the refrigerator, scooting around the items on the shelves, trying to find a snack. He frowned at the results he found. "Mum, I'll be back. I'm gonna run to the store." He called.

Walking out to his car, Niall received a text from Harry. "Sorry bout dinner babe. Mum wants me home for family night." He read under his breath.

'It's fine love, have fun with your family:)xx' Niall quickly texted back as he turned on his car.

After he picked up the necessary food he decided to take a walk down main street. "No Liam, look I don't understand what you don't like about him." Niall sighed into his phone, walking down the sidewalk.

"I'm just trying to protect you Ni, he's not good to you. He honestly treats you like shit."

"Liam, I'm done talking about this. I love him and he loves me. End of story." Niall said quickly, hanging up.

Niall rolled his eyes as he went to put his phone back in his pocket, but something stopped him in his tracks.

He heard the familiar voices of Harry, Louis, and Zayn somewhere in front of him. Looking around he spotted them standing in line by the entrance of a popular club.

"Ready to meet some hot guys?" Louis smirked. "Who knows Haz, maybe you'll get laid."

Harry laughed and rolled his eyes. Zayn chuckled deeply. "Oh yeah, I forgot, you've got a boyfriend."

"If you can even call him that." Louis scoffed. "He's more like Harry's servant." He said making all of the guys laugh.

"Honestly Harry, why are you even dating him?" Zayn laughed. "He's the biggest loser in the school. He's the epitome of gay."

"Does he even count as a guy?" Louis chuckled, raising his eyebrows.

Harry laughed and shook his head. "I don't know, maybe not. He's so fucking emotional. If I wanted that in a relationship I would be straight."

"Does the sex make up for it? If I were you I'd be out of there in a second if he wasn't at least good in bed." Zayn said.

Harry scoffed. "He's terrible, are you kidding me? Do you honestly think he'd be good? I was his first and after all this time he still hasn't gotten the hang of it."

Niall couldn't hear the rest of the conversation because the trio had entered the building, but it didn't matter. Tears we already stinging his eyes.

He turned on his heel and quickly stalked off to his car, his bottom lip trembling as he tried to hold in his tears.

He couldn't believe what he had heard, what he saw. Harry wasn't the most loving boyfriend in the world, that's true, but he had never /ever/ done something like this. Niall felt absolutely humiliated.

He shakily took out his phone as he walked down the street. It took him awhile to type out the message, tears falling on the screen every few seconds.

'Didn't know family night included going to the club and making fun of your boyfriend. Have a fun night Harry.'
