Louis' P.O.V

Harry and Louis left Niall to his own thoughts, to go and clear up lunch from the kitchen. "How do you think Niall took it?" Asked Harry, as he carefully placed a plate into the dishwasher.

"Better than I though. I thought that he would-" Louis paused, hesitantly. Harry looked back up, waiting for an answer.

"I thought that watching the film would make it worse, but he's okay I think." Sighed Louis as he picked up an empty coke can. " I really miss him." Cried Harry, who had now sat down in a chair, and buried his head into his arms. Louis tentatively patted Harry on the shoulder, a small act of comfort.

"Harry, we can't bring him back. If there is an afterlife, then what's Liam going to think of us lot?" Soothed Louis, biting his tongue to stop himself from crying too.

"That we never put the toilet seat down?" Said Harry, puzzled. Louis, shook his head and despite everything he found himself smiling. "No, that we need to keep going." It was like the famous quote from Martin Luther King Jr: "If you can't fly, run. If you can't run, walk. If you can't walk, crawl. But whatever you do, you've got to keep moving."

Harry nodded and smiled back at Louis. "You're right. Although Liam was like a brother to us, the planet isn't going to stop moving so we shouldn't either." Said Harry thoughtfully. The next few minutes were spent in silence, the only sound was the clattering of plates as they loaded them into the groaning dishwasher.

"You heard anything from Danielle?" Asked Louis, quietly. Harry shrugged and shook his messy head of curls. "She's done no interviews, no phone call. Nothing." He spat out the last word bitterly. "It's like she doesn't even want to acknowledge it."

"Harry, we all treat grief differently. Perhaps she just needs some time?" Said Louis. Harry looked at the ground awkwardly, regretting his previous statement. He was being a bit stupid.

"Is she going to the-" Louis' voice cracked, and he breathed deeply. "Is she going to the funeral?" He finished finally, looking at Harry anxiously.

"We will have to wait and see. I suppose she will, but it's not going to help Niall. He's been pissed at her from the beginning."

A/N: I know this chapter is a bit boring, but it's just kind of unrealistic to have drama drama drama. Also one of my chapters has just completely disappeared. It's the one with build a bear in it. I might have to re write it in because I think that it's quite important. Sorry!
