Harry’s POV
They are in the kitchen alone… I know Lou likes her but I like her too. Bleh what should I do? I thought to myself.
“Hey mate just calm down. Whatever is supposed to work out will.” Liam said laughing quietly at me
“I said that out loud didn’t I?” oh crap, nice one Harry…
“Yeah, and you're pacing. Have been for the whole time they’ve been in there.” He smiled and patted the couch. “Come play life with us
“Yeah.” Niall and Zayn shouted
“Ok.” I said and sat down forgetting about Ashley
For now
Ashley POV
“Why do I have to do dishesssss?” Louis whined
“Because I cant.” Why did I say that now he’s going to ask why and I’m going to have to lie about everything nice one Ashley…
“Because of your scars?”
“What are you talking about?” I said laughing while trying to keep my tears from spilling out.
“You don’t have to be strong all the time. that’s what Jesus is for.” Wait what? And I thought… well I guess he was supposedly a church kid when he was younger.
“I-I-I’m sorry.” I whispered sinking to the floor and covering my face as the tears started flowing freely
“Don’t be. I know what it’s like for no one to care if you are alive.” He said sitting down next to me and wrapping his arms around me. it was so comfortable, safe, I felt loved for the first time in forever, since before I started cutting. I probably shouldn’t trust him I mean I’ve only known him for what? 2 days?
“Thanks, Lou.”
“Hey I used to cut when I was in high school. Then I got famous and all the jerks wanted to be my friends…” he said using his thumb to wipe away my tears which of course only made me cry harder
“But you quit. You had support, a good friend, and more talent than anyone should have.” I said sitting up “I’m not you. No one cares, in fact when I was raped my parents practically kicked me out of the house. I mean I know the whole thing was my fault anyways but… couldn’t they support me?” oh crap I just mentioned that I was raped… I looked up and saw his eyes were full of tears as well.
“Well, umm kinda.” He said looking down.
“You didn’t?”
“I quit when I met you.”
