Far Gone

Chapter 2: 4 years

I wake up feeling kind of groggy like ive been hit in the head. I sit up confused as to how long ive been asleep, then i look at the window to see its dark out. Dear god how many years did i sleep in this time. I get up to check the time only to realize Harry isn't back yet and start to have a mini panic attack until i hear rattling dishes downstairs. 12:50 p.m damn. I get up before ive convinced myself that staying in bed is for the best and go to the restroom. This is the one thing i dont like about being out of bed is the cold air that hits you when you throw the covers off and you only have one strip of clothing on.

I finish up in the bathroom and start to head downstairs. harry always knows how to make it smell great down here whether it cooking or just his strong cologne. As i hop off the last step i see harry sitting on the couch with his head on the arm and his long legs dangling off the other end. so i tip toe to the back of the couch and peek over to make sure he didn't hear or see me come down. Then i spring up over the couch and pounce on him screaming "GOTCHA" at the top of my lungs, only resulting in him casually looking at me and saying "oh hey Lou, your awake." I probably should have thought trying to scare someone who went through boot camp wasn't the best idea. I accept my defeat, "what are you watching" i say. "well i was watching this really good food show before i was so rudely interrupted."

I decide to get up and get some food in me before i shrivel up like a raisin and die. Im not the best chef in the world so ill have to settle for some cereal because you cant burn that. this cereal is pretty good to be honest. I have no regrets. As i'm finishing up the last of my cereal Harry walks in and takes one look at me and snickers. "wow *snicker* you really settled for cereal, You know you could have just asked me to make you actual dinner." i ignore his teasing and put my bowl in the sink. I think i'm gonna give him the silent treatment for being mean to me. So i walk past him not listening to whatever he was saying and start walking up the stairs. " hey, HEY dont ignore me!" Harry is tugging at my shirt like a tiny child while i go up the stairs. "Dont make me use my secret weapon" That earned an eyebrow raise from me but nothing more then that as i push my way past harry into the room. "ok you asked for this!" I dont think i got the chance to turn around all the way before i got tackled to the bed and his fingers were at my sides. Harry straddled me so i couldn't run away and tickled me until i grew a six pack from laughing so hard.

"OK, OK ill talk to you! I'm talking to you" Finally he stopped and rolled off of me onto the bed laughing.   " I told you not to ignore me or I'd get you good." "I cant wait for tomorrow harry its so close i can almost smell it" "you can smell anniversaries ew they must smell pretty sticky and gross."
" Oh shush you know thats not what i meant"  " I know i cant wait either Lou."  We both just layed there for what seemed like hours until Harry jumped up and started taking his clothes off at the end of the bed.
" What are you doing" i said a bit curious. " um getting ready for bed, you know i dont sleep with any clothes on, Why are you asking anyways" " Oh no reason." I slipped out of my shirt and back under the covers and so does harry. I lay there for what seems like ages before i start to feel a bit tired. Man ive just slept this whole day away. I turn over to harry who is staring at me intensely already. Caught me off guard at first until he started talking, "I'm so glad i'm here with you in this place, do you even know how much i love you Louis" " Of course i do, and i love you just as much maybe a little bit more." " Your the best thing thats ever happened to me." and with those words i fell asleep in his arms. Tomorrows gonna be great.

* BEEP. BEEP. BEEP* What the hell is that noise *BEEP.BEEP.BEEP* I jolt up all of a sudden wide awake and look around for that god damn noise. when i turn to my nightstand on harry's side of the bed i can see a big bulky radio alarm clock. Clever Harry real cleaver to put it on that side so i'd have to get up. Where the hell is harry anyway no good morning 4 year anniversary kiss? Rolling to the other side of the bed i flop onto the floor and get up quickly turning off that fucking alarm clock. Then thats when i see the little note very poorly duck taped to the back of the clock. ~Good morning Lou, happy anniversary i love you. I know you dont like feet, so go somewhere you enjoy to eat. Harry~ Oh my goodness is he really making me do the most adorable,poorly written scavenger hunt. I play along and go to where he obviously wants me to go the kitchen. First i put on some clothes because i dont want guest popping out from behind our counter and seeing my nakedness . Once i'm nicely dressed in a nice white shirt and blue pants i zip downstairs.
