Trying to be Superman

Chapter 16

Liam left the building that housed Simon's office and made his way back to the parking garage. It was dark and if there weren't the street lights he wouldn't have been able to see anything. As he climbed into his silver car his phone beeped again and he pulled it out of his pocket.

“Hurry Li! I'm scared and lonely.

-Ni. X”

Liam blushed and set his phone down, turning the car on, Niall was always like this. Flirty, and it always made Liam's heart flutter like a hummingbird and he grinned as wide as he could. Liam drove into the driveway of the house he and Niall lived in, sometimes Zayn would stay there too, but not usually, it was mainly just Niall and Liam; and that's the way Liam liked it best. As Liam opened the door he heard a girly scream, laughing as he knew it was Niall.

“Liam?” The Irish boy called out, praying that it was Liam not something that had come out of his movie to kill him.

“Yeah it's me Nialler. Scary movie?” Liam answered, still smiling, Niall always brought this part of Liam out, the softer side, the less strict, more emotional side to Liam Payne that not many people actually knew, let alone knew existed. Niall let out a sigh, and hopped up off the couch, his blonde hair bouncing as he jogged over and jumped into Liam's arms. Niall knew he was in love with Liam, he had figured it out when they first met, Liam made him feel safe. Made him feel loved, and made him feel complete. But Liam would never love Niall back and Niall knew it, he understood that Liam was dating Danielle. Liam's arms wrapped around the blue-eyed boy and held him up as he strolled over to the couch, sitting down with Niall in his lap.

“So what's the movie?” Liam whispered into Niall's ear, Niall could feel his hair standing on end and goosebumps pop up all over his body at Liam's mouth being so close.

“Um- It's- uh, a scary one,” He mumbled, blushing. Liam's hand reached up to stroke Niall's red cheek. Niall was always blushing, so Liam couldn't tell that he wasn't the only one that was affected by having his lips so close to Niall's skin.

“What's it called?” Liam asked, pulling his face back from Niall's and clearing his throat.

“Uh- I dunno,” Niall laughed, and he reached to grab Liam's hand. Liam squeezed down on Niall's hand and he turned to watch Niall watch the movie. Liam loved doing this and did it all the time, just watched Niall. Niall's face was adorable, and his reactions were more entertaining than any movie could ever be to Liam. As the movie progressed Niall found himself not as scared as he had been before Liam came home and this always seemed to happen with Liam. God, did Niall just want to turn around and kiss the boy that he lay on.

“Liam?” Niall whispered, his voice barely audible.

“Yeah Ni?” Liam replied, he was confused as Niall was usually so focused when he watched the tele. Niall took in a deep breath and he was about to say 'I love you' when something in his pocket buzzed. He reached down and pulled up a phone, but it was Liam's not Niall's and Niall realized that Liam hadn't noticed the phone. Niall gulped and opened the message from Simon, it was probably just a reminder of their interview tomorrow.

“Remember no inner-band relationships. So end Harry and Louis.

-Simon.” Niall felt his heart drop into his stomach and he felt tears behind his eyes.

“What was it Ni?” Liam asked, confused at Niall's sudden silence.

“S'nothing,” Niall said, his voice thick with emotion. Niall stood up, getting out of Liam's lap and ran up the stairs, the sound of his sobs trailing behind him.

“Nialler! Ni! Niall!” Liam cried out, staring after the boy running off. With his eyes wide, he noticed the light coming from his phone which lay on the couch where Niall had sat moments before. Liam picked up the phone and his eyes glanced over the message from Simon, and that's when Liam Payne realized that he couldn't do what Simon wanted. He couldn't do it, because my doing it he'd hurt the only person he wanted to protect. Niall Horan. The boy who he realized, liked him too.

“What was your dream last night?” Louis spoke, he was hesitant to ask but Harry's strong reaction to it made him curious. The two boys sat at the dining table, with a breakfast Louis had made. Toast, eggs, and bacon. Harry was lifting a bite of eggs up to his mouth when Louis spoke and his hand froze, his mouth half open. He closed his mouth violently, his teeth snapping, and his eyes squeezing shut.

“Nothing, it was nothing Louis,” Harry groaned, through closed teeth. He couldn't bring himself to tell Louis about what Simon had said, Harry had already ruined enough about this relationship, hadn't he? Tears streamed down Harry's face, dripping into his eggs, and all over his plate. Louis struggled to stand up and he ended up crawling over to Harry's seat and he sat on the floor at Harry's feet.

“Hazza, oh Hazza, don't cry baby, don't cry Hazza,” Louis begged, his voice desperate. Harry slipped out of his wooden chair, and onto the floor with Louis. Once again he pulled Louis into his arms and held him tightly.

“Lou?” Harry whimpered, knowing what he had to do. He had to be honest. Louis nodded, not sure if Harry would react to him speaking.

“Sim-Simonwantedmetobreakyourheartbecausehe'sstillnothappywithusbeingacouplesohethreatenedmeandlastnightIdreamedaboutwhenhetoldmeIhadtohurtyouifIeverwantedtosingagain-” Harry was so scared his entire speech came out in one long word, and once he was finished he took in a deep breath and waited for Louis to answer.

“Harry Edward Styles!” Louis cried, turning to face his scared boyfriend, Harry cringed at his name, flinching back as if Louis were about to hit him.

“Don't you ever feel bad for what that- that monster tried to make you do!” Louis arms wrapped around Harry's neck and he hugged him.

“That's not your fault, you told me baby, you didn't hurt me. You told me,” Louis crooned, still trying to comfort the large boy who was still frightened.

“I'm so sorry Louis, I'm so fucking sorry,” Harry cried, finally accepting the fact that Louis forgave him. Louis pressed his soft lips so Harry's tasting the salt from his tears, but the older boy ignored it.

“I. Love. You. Forever. And. Always.” Louis growled, in between kisses to Harry's mouth.

“I'll love you but I'll never deserve you,” Harry replied, a sadness to what he said, as he noticed it was true.

“That's not even close to true, Styles you're the one that everyone fucking wants, and who am I to be the one to get you?” Louis continued to growl, his voice almost a snarl.

“I'm nothing compared to you,” Harry whispered.

“You are; Harry. Fucking. Styles. Goddamnit,” Louis snarled, biting Harry's lip and pulling at it roughly. Harry moaned suddenly surprised at Louis' eagerness and his lips pressed against Louis'.

“Well you're Louis. Fucking. Tomlinson.” Harry cheekily replied, making Louis bite down on his neck.

“Well we're Larry. Fucking. Stylinson,” Louis giggled, and Harry smiled, and he felt all the happiness in the world. In his arms, in the form of Louis, his boyfriend.
