You were sitting next to Harry, a torn apart mess. He was nervous to get up there and speak, all eyes and cameras on him and him only. He was going to give a speech, and sure Harry has experience with being in front of large crowds and interviews, but this was different.
This was serious.
After what seems like mere seconds of the presenters everlasting introduction speech, he stepped down from the podium. It was Harry's turn. He walked up, his legs wobbling slightly, and sweat evident on his face and hands. His eyes were frantic, racing everywhere to look at all the people listening to him. His hands were warm and sweaty.
You grabbed his hand, squeezing it, causing him to turn to look at him. "Harry don't worry sweetie, you've got this, you'll be fine. I'm right here for you."
Harry looked into your eyes, smiling, but so only fading, nervous of what he was about to say he asked you, "Naya I'm scared, can you go up with me? Please?"
You nodded, wanting to comfort and support your boyfriend as much as you could. Together hand in hand the two of you walked up to the podium. Harry adjusted the mic, stuttering he introduced himself and you, "H-Hi my name is Harry Styles and this is my girlfriend Naya. I'm here to speak to you on a, um very important issue." Harry said nervously, gazing around.
You squeezed Harry's hand not too tight and went on your tippy toes, kissing him on the cheek. Harry blushed, turning to the audience. "I'm here to speak to you about the pairing between I myself and my dear friend Louis Tomlinson: Larry Stylinson." Harry stated more firmly and more confident you were there with him.
"Larry as you know it is a bromance that is believed by many to be a romance and real. I'm here to tell you myself that Larry isn't real. You fans have been truly amazing, and we are blessed to have you, however on the occasion you guys do tend to take things too far. The reason I stopped and eased off of Louis lately was not because of management nor was this speech, believe me. The reason we stopped being as close was because it felt awkward between the two of us. I am announcing to you right now that I am a straight man. I have my love right here." Harry said, raising your hand entwined in his.
"Yes I was experimenting earlier in my life, but that's because I was confused of my identity. Of who I was. Please guys, know that this happens and it is common. The friendship between Louis and I felt like it was getting into something deeper and we both did not want that so we gave each other distance. If you can please stop shipping us like that we would both appreciate it. It's not healthy, it's not right, and it makes us both uncomfortable. I'm disappointed that the other boys can be shipped, like say Niam, and they could touch and say whatever they wanted to each other without it being said as a romance but me or Louis can't even look at each other without directioners screaming out and assuming 'LARRY IS REAL.' When I am telling you directly it's not. Please stop it for all of us and the band. It is making a rift in between us and our friendship. Thank you." Harry said, bowing.
Harry was nervous and did not expect what happened next. Everyone in the crowd stood up, applauding. Harry had did it. Harry finally said the truth about Larry, and honestly it was amazing.
