Chapter 41. (Crushed Dreams. II.)

[Metropolitan Mall. 12:34pm.]

Harry : (sad) "what's he doing?"

Josh : "cheating bastard lets go kick his ass!"

Oliver : "Josh you've known Louis for almost two years you know he's not a cheater"

Josh : "still he can't do this to Harry"

Harry : (stutters) "I-It's o-okay, h-he's n-not even my b-boyfriend"

Josh : "jesus Harry control yourself are you going to cry?"

Oliver : (pats Harry on the shoulder) "do you want to go?"

Josh : "no we need to confront him"

Oliver : "come on Harry" (tugs Harry by the arm)

Harry : "I- (hesitates) "yeah let's go"

Oliver : (soothes) "we'll figure this out don't worry. I'm sure it's nothing"

Harry : "I actually thought he liked me" (snorts)

Josh : "I guess he got bored"

Oliver : (slaps Josh behind head) "I'm sure that's not the reason"

Josh : (holds onto head where Oliver slapped him) "you're lucky there are so many witnesses around I'd have your head"

Harry : (looks back at Louis) "he looks happy"

Oliver : "don't do this to yourself Harry"

Harry : (sad) "do you..do you know him?"

Oliver : (sighs) "no Harry I don't but he looks strangely familiar to be honest"

Harry : (sarcastic) "great"

Josh : "I had no idea Louis was into sugar daddies"

Oliver : "oh god"

Harry : "is this why he left his job?"

Josh : (shocked) "what the fuck you're right! It all makes sense now. Louis went out and got himself a sugar daddy"

Oliver : can we stop jumping to conclusions? I know Louis alright? He's not into sugar daddies"

Josh : "Ben is a sugar daddy"

Harry : "Ben?"

Oliver : "Josh doesn't know what he's talking about"

Harry : "Ben as in Benjamin? From the club?"

Oliver : "it's nothing Harry come on" (tugs his arm towards exit)

Harry : (jerks hand out of Oliver's grip) (surprised) "oh my god"

Oliver : "what's wrong?"

Harry : "it's Ben from the club isn't it? (Oliver nods head) When I met him he said something about giving me gifts if I pleasured him. He talked about rewarding me and taking care of me..oh my god"

Josh : "told you"

Harry : "Louis was with Benjamin?"

Oliver : "God no"

Harry : "then what aren't you telling me?"

Josh : "he used to work for him"

Harry : (shocked) "what?"
