(Louis POV)

I can't believe this is actually happening, Harry and I FINALLY get to tell our fans the truth.

We are in the car on our way to the studio where our interview is being held, I'm nervous that the fans won't accept us but I have faith that they will. They have been with us since the beginning and they love us as much as we love them.

I look over to Harry, who looks like he might piss himself.

"Babe?" I say

He looks at me and gives me a weak smile, that doesn't reach his eyes. Is he having second thoughts? About the interview or me?

"Whats wrong?" I ask hesitantly, afraid of what the answer might be.

"I'm just nervous our fans won't support us, thats all." He says so low that I have to lean in to hear him.

I reach over and grab his face in my hands, caressing his soft check with the pad of my thumb. "Babe, our true fans will. They love us and would support us through anything, and the ones who don't aren't true fans." He smiles again, only this time it reaches his eyes, then leans in and kisses me lightly.

"I love you." He whispers

"I love you too. Always." I whisper back smiling.

When we arrive to the studio my palms start to sweat, and I get even more nervous. I remember what I had just said to Harry and the thought gives me a sudden courage.

We are escorted from the car to our dressing room, where we all freshen up and Lou fixes our hair. She looks at me and Harry and says "I am so happy for you two, I know how long you have been waiting for this moment." We smile at her and pull her in for a hug "I love you boys."

"We love you too." Me and Harry say at the same time.

"TWO MINUTES BOYS!"

I take a deep breath and with an nod of encouragement from Lou I follow the rest of the boys out of our room.

"Now for the moment we have all been waiting for, here with a big announcement, Please welcome ONE DIRECTION!"

We walked out on stage and took our seat on the couch, after hugging the interviewer, I sat on the edge next to Harry followed by, Liam, Niall and Zayn on the other end.

When the applause ended the interviewer, who was a pregnant women who looked to be in her early 30's, said "Hello boys! So glad to have you here.."

Liam spoke after we all said hello "We are glad to be here."

She smiled kindly at him "We hear you have an announcement!"

I took a deep breath and said "We do."

"Please share, we are dying to hear it!" The woman replied enthusiastically.

I looked to Harry and gave him an encouraging smile.

He took a deep breath and spoke "Well first we want to say a massive thank you to our fans who have been there through everything, and who never cease to amaze us all with their undying support and love." He paused looking at me and then back at the interviewer who nods for him to go on "And we hope that they will continue to support us after we announce what we came here to tell the world."

I smile and take Harrys hand in mine "Well I guess I should just come out and say it shouldn't I." I laughed nervously.

"Please do." The interviewer said sweetly.

"Well Harry and I are in a relationship, and we have been for nearly 2 years."

The interviewers eyes widen and she quickly composes herself. "You heard it here First Ladies and gentleman, Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles are dating!"

(Harrys POV)

After the interview we all came back to me and Louis' flat for dinner.

"I am so happy for you guys." Liam said for the 10th time hugging us both again.

"Thanks Liam." Louis says smiling.

I decide to get on twitter and see how the fans are reacting. I login and see that 'LarryShipperSayIToldYouSo' and "LarryIsReal" are trending. I smile and go to my mentions.

There are mostly congratulation tweets, and Louis and you are so cute tweets. But there are also some rather rude tweets.

One particularly caught my eye 'EVERYONE @Harry_Styles is a queer, knew this was coming. hahah why don't you go kill yourself buddy. This world doesn't need anymore faggots."

I read it over and over again, tears streaming down my face. I don't know why these worlds hurt me so much, but they did.

"Harry dinner is do-"

Louis rushes over to the couch and sits next to me "Baby, whats wrong."

I point at the screen, knowing that if I speak I will break down and start sobbing. Louis takes the laptop from me and reads the tweet. He gasps and shuts the laptop and throws in on the coffee table, turning to me. "Harry don't let what that homophobic prick said get to you."

A sob escapes my mouth and thats when I break down into tears. Louis pulls me into his arms and I nuzzle my face in his neck. We stay like this until the boys come in to say that dinner is getting cold.

They all stop in their tracks "Whats wrong?" Niall asks coming over and kneeling infront of us rubbing my back. Liam and Zayn come over and sit on the couch on either side of me and Louis

"Harry was reading through his tweets and saw something disgusting that someone said to him." Louis says.

"Don't even pay attention to what they say mate" Zayn says

"Yeah Harry, you and Louis are happy. And you both deserve to be. Who cares what they think." Liam adds

I sit up and thank them for being there for me, they smile and then we all cuddle up on the couch to watch 'The Notebook'

At 1am the boys decide to head home for the night, Louis grabs my hand and leads me to our room where we both crawl in bed. He wraps his arm around my waist and rests his head on my chest.

I smile and wrap my arms around him "I love you."

"I love you too"

And then we both drift to sleep.
