Chapter 2

Today felt like any other day. Niall was just about to go on his break after helping a little girl find her mummy. Harry always met him in the car park on his break. As usual, he went to the back room to grab his jacket, said a quick "In a bit." to his colleagues, and left through the back door. Harry was there, in his usual spot. That's one thing that Niall loved about Harry; his consistency. Niall could always count on Harry to be where he said he would, no matter what. Harry had never let him down, even when everyone else had. Niall opened the passenger door and sat down, closing the door after he managed to get his legs into the vehicle. Harry was smiling at him. "Hey, Daddy Long Legs, how was your morning?"

Niall smirked, "Ha Ha, it's funny cause I'm shorter than you. But please never use the word 'daddy' again unless you're talking to your father. My morning was good, helped a little girl find her mum. You know, superhero shit. Yours?"

Harry beamed at Niall, hung on to his every word. Harry just loved to hear anything that Niall had to say, no matter how idiotic it was.

"You're a total superhero, Ni. I'll be your sidekick. We can be Short Man and Curly Boy. Catchy, no? My morning was boring, I woke up like 20 minutes ago, had some breakfast then drove right here."

Niall looked down at his knees, "You know, Haz, you don't have to come here every day. I mean, don't you want to hang out with other people?"

Niall looked back up to Harry.

Harry had an inquisitive expression, "Do you want to hang out with other people? Bored of me already?"

Harry was trying to make a joke but Niall could see the flash of hurt in his eyes.

"Don't be stupid, Haz, of course I'm not bored of you. You're per-"

Niall coughed, "I mean, I just want you to know that you don't have to feel, like, obligated to spend time with me. You're a great person and you deserve as many friends as you want. I just.. can't help feeling like you're wasting your time with me. I'm not exciting like you."

Niall sighed. He hadn't meant for today to be the day he started spilling things out to Harry.
