to be loved, to be in love

(Taking place in Harry's stepdad's bungalow during X Factor)

Liam's POV

The rest of the boys are asleep. Their snores fill up the house and make me feel even more lonely.

I slide under the blankets and release my built-up tears. I try to hold back sobs, but they escape my mouth anyway. I've been holding my secret for far too long.

This is all because of love. I'm unfortunately in love with one of my best mates, Louis Tomlinson. He could never, ever like me. He's straight, even though sometimes I wonder...

I guess I was so caught up with my thoughts, that I was surprised when the blanket was lifted over my head, and I saw the faint outline of a person hovering over my bed.

I whimpered and the person drew me into a tight hug.

"Liam," he whispered in my ear. I shiver while muttering back, "Louis..." The sobs start back up and I cling to his body, shoving my face into the crook of his neck, inhaling his scent. "What's wrong babe?" he asks, his voice concerned.

I think of the cause of this situation and continue crying. I cannot tell him.

"It breaks my heart to see you like this Li," he says.

"I'm sorry," I say looking into his beautiful blue eyes, since I've adjusted to the dark.

"Please tell me what's wrong." he pleads. "I-I can't... you'd hate me." I choke out. "I could never hate you, Li," he is looking into my eyes, and I feel as if he's staring into my soul.

'Promise," I state completely serious. "Yes, of course, I promise," he says sounding glad that I'm going to tell him my secret. Well, I better get it over with.

I sigh and decide to confess my love for him, "Let me get it all out, then you may talk, okay?" He nods and I begin.

"Louis, ever since I saw you at the beginning of X Factor, I thought you were the most perfect person and I was strangely attracted to you. I never had feelings for a boy before, and I was really confused. I thought my feelings would go away, but then we were formed into One Direction, and as I began to know you, I developed a crush." At this I pause and blush. "I know you would never like me, but I love you and I thought you should know, and this is probably going to tear our friendship apart, but I'm really sorry. You probably hate me ugh I'm so stupid-"

I'm cut off my from my rant, when lips are suddenly pressed to mine. My eyes widen, then close as I melt into the kiss.

Louis glides his tongue across my lower lip and I give him access. His tongue shoots into my mouth and he massages my tongue with his. I moan at this and he pulls away. I can still taste the mint lingering in my mouth from his.

I wait till we control our heavy breathing before asking a very important question. "So, what are we?" Louis looks me in the eyes. "B-boyfriends? I mean only if you w-want to be," he answers nervously. "I would love to be your boyfriend!" I say overjoyed. He presses his lips to mine. "I love you Liam". "I love you too Lou". This turned out way better than I thought.
