Almost [Zarry&Lilo]

Chapter Thirteen

Scene continues.

LIAM: (sincere) "I'm really sorry for everything, Louis."

LOUIS: (watches Liam in a calculated way) "Are you?"

LIAM: (feeling provoked) "What?"

LOUIS: (shakes his head) "We used to be so in love, Liam, and now I can hardly look you in your eyes," (he looks away and tears well up in his eyes) "I want you to get better, and maybe after you do that, we can fix this..."

LIAM: (steps closer to Louis) "I love you, and I'm getting better, but I can't stand being away from you anymore, it hurts Lou."

LOUIS: (steps away from Liam) "You don't know what 'hurt' is Liam. You don't get to say that," (chances a look up at Liam) "I love you too, but I need time to figure out if getting back into a relationship with you is a good idea. Just give me time Li."

Louis turned away, ready to get back in bed and sleep away his weekend, but couldn't find it in his heart to walk away just yet. He turned back to Liam and wrapped his arms around Liam's neck, giving him a hug, the first hug in a long time.

LIAM: (hugs Louis back) "Okay angel, I'll see you soon."

LOUIS: (lets go and gives Liam a small peck on his cheek) "Bye Liam."

In Harry's room.

ZAYN: (strokes Harry's hair) "I want to take you out to lunch later."

HARRY: (moans at the feeling, throws his head back dramatically) "I'd love that."

ZAYN: (cheeky, kisses Harry's ear) "Yeah?"

HARRY: (tone breathy) "Mmmm."

ZAYN: (amused at Harry's response, whispers) "Where else do you want kisses?"

HARRY: (bites his lip, pulls back slightly) "Everywhere, but we can't right now Z."

ZAYN: (pouty, plants a kiss to Harry's neck) "Oh come on, it's been forever."

HARRY: (mocks his pout) "Later, I promise."

Harry leans closer to Zayn and kisses his lips. Zayn squeezes Harry's ass appreciatively and when Louis sees the two, he gags playfully making the couple pull away.

LOUIS: (turns away) "I'm done talking to Liam."

ZAYN: (lifts Harry off him) "Got to skedaddle, babe, but I'll be back before you know it," (he kisses Harry's cheek and gets off the bed) "I promise."

HARRY: (wipes the corners of his mouth) "Bye."

Zayn leaves through the window in a puff of smoke and Louis enters the room slowly and sits by Harry on his bed.

LOUIS: (shakes his head) "Your thoughts are pitiful and dirty. How?"

HARRY: (groans, playful) "How are you even able to read my mind? I'm pretty good at blocking your other power."

LOUIS: (eyes widen) "How are you still thinking about those things?"

HARRY: (falls back in bed, smirks up at Louis) "I'm a really horny teenager."

LOUIS: (gets up, walks to the door) "And I thought we were gonna have a constructive talk."

HARRY: (unties his joggers) "Come back when I'm beaten my meat."

Louis couldn't walk away fast enough.

Scene 3: After their date, Zayn took Harry back home and surprisingly Harry was met by his mother as soon as he stepped inside. In the doorway to the living room, Afton, Niall and Louis watched on with smirks. Harry was a bit confused to say the least.

HARRY: (runs a hand through his dishevelled hair) "Hi everyone..."

ANNE: "Where were you?"

HARRY: (tilts his head at his mom gives her a 'Don't patronize me' look) "Out."

ANNE: (puts her hands on her hips, sighs) "Harry."

HARRY: (rolls his eyes) "I went out to lunch with a friend."

ANNE: "Really Harry, and you're just getting home at 8:30?" (looks behind herself quickly) "who did you even go with? Because all your friends are here."

HARRY: "Mom, I'm offended, I have other friends you know."

ANNE: "Harry, I'm just worried, you got home at 8:30, after 'lunch'... all your friends are here... on top of that you just stepped out of a Bentley," (whispers, so the eavesdroppers don't hear) "and you smell like sex."

HARRY: (blushes) "Mom, I'm 18."

ANNE: "Exactly why I'm worried. I know you're finding yourself and stuff, but I just want to make sure you're doing it in a safe way."

HARRY: (huffs, suddenly annoyed) "I'm not stupid, mother. I'm not doing drugs, I'm not selling my body on some corner, I'm not doing anything illegal, alright?"

ANNE: (nods slowly, looks him up and down)  "So you just have a boyfriend you're not telling me about?"

HARRY: (flushes) "Uh..."

Afton and Niall snicker in the background as they watch Harry go beat red and Louis looks at him confused. Why won't Harry just tell Anne about Zayn?

ANNE: (smiles minutely) "So that's a yes. What's his name?"

HARRY: (scratches his neck back) "I don't... want to talk about him."

ANNE: (furrows her brows, tries to look Harry in his eyes) "Harry."

HARRY: (almost snarls, looks her dead in the eyes) "I don't want to talk about him."

Harry walks off, past his mom, then past his friends and his cousin before bounding up the stairs. Once he gets to his room, he slams the door shut behind him and everyone is shocked. That's not typical Harry behaviour.
