"What?" Harry asks again.

My heart continues to beat at top speed as I see Louis open his mouth.

"Harry-" He begins talking but then I heard Eleanor start talking.

"It's you're birthday gift! We don't want you knowing what it is!" Eleanor said with a big grin.

Louis looks taken aback and Harry just starts laughing.

"Oh ok. You three continue to talk, I have to go finish getting ready." He said.

He walks out of the room and I see Louis giving Eleanor a glare.

"Lou! He can't know!" She said.

"You are taking her side?" He whispers.

"Yes because if I was in her position I know I would not tell you."

"Why?!" He asked, obviously getting angry.

"Because you would do something crazy and I care about you too much to do that!" She says.

He looked at her and was obviously guilty. He walked over and gave her a kiss. She smiled a little and I was glad that my heart was beating at a normal pace again.

"Brooke. I give you a week. One week to let him know or I will. I can't keep this from him, he is my best friend. He deserves to know and you need safety." He said.

"What?! Louis no!" I said.

"Yes. After that we tell Paul."

Eleanor gave me an apologetic look and I walked away to go get my stuff. I walk into Harry's room and see him putting a different shirt on.

"Where are you going?" He asked.

"I have to head back to my flat. Ellie needs me." I said while grabbing my bag.

"Oh ok. I can drive you." He said with a grin.

"No it's ok. I can walk."

He looks confused and leans in to give me a kiss. I gave him a quick kiss and then got the rest of my stuff. I said goodbye to Eleanor and Louis and then walked out.

Once I was away from Harry I felt safer. I knew Louis was right and that's why I left. I was finally going to tell him and any alone time with Harry I knew I would blurt it out. I needed to think it out and tell him in the right way. Was there any right way?

I walked to my flat and see that Niall's car was parked on the street. I went inside and heard that it was quiet which was odd, especially since Niall was here. I walked into her room and see Niall practically on top of her, clearly having a make out session.

"OH!" I said and then quickly shut my bedroom door.

"Sorry! I didn't know. I will uh I'll just leave." I said while leaving and rushing back down the stairs to get out of the complex.

I heard Ellie giggle a little and Niall was probably red from embarrassment. I walked out and try to think of where I could go but then I bumped into someone which maked me fall onto the ground.

I look up and see a large, old man looking down at me.

"Oh! I am so sorry miss! I didn't see you there!" He said.

"It's fine."

He helped me up and I gave him a smile.

"Thank you." I said.

"Very sorry miss."

"It's fine seriously."

I see him smile and then continue putting mail in the boxes for all the people who live in the complex. I realized he was the mailman and he was putting my mail away right now.
