"What happened? Are you alright?" Louis asked me when we went back to the table.

"Yes, thanks to Harry." I said and looked at him with a smile.

"I did nothing." He said.

"Yes, you did." I said and then Selena came. It was time for us to take a break so we sat for a little. I sat next to Harry and Selena next to Louis.

"Hey, we should all go out some time." Selena said.

"Yeah, that would be awesome." I said happily.

"I'd love to but I'm leaving tomorrow." Louis said.

"We could go out tonight." I said. We all agreed and looked at Harry asking him if he was okay with it.

"O-okay." He said.

~~~

It was almost 8pm so I decided to change. I showered in the morning so I'm just gonna leave it for now because I don't have much time, Selena will come in about 15 minutes. I went to the closet and open it. I took a black kinda short dress and my black heels. We'll go at a club, Louis decided that, and he told me to wear something nice. If he tries to set me up on a date again I swear...

The bell cut my thoughts.

I went downstairs and heard Harry and Louis saying something to each other but I couldn't exactly understand what. They heard me and stopped. They looked at me with wide eyes and froze. Especially Harry, who just couldn't take his eyes off me even when Louis poked him. I giggled and went to open at Selena who rang the bell for second time.

"Finally." She said. I smiled and let her come in. She stepped in and I closed the door.

"Hel-" She stopped when she looked at Harry.

"Why is he frozen like this?" She asked. I whispered 'I'll tell you later' while Louis got mad and heat Harry in the back of his head.

"Ouch!" Harry said and came back to reality. "Why did you do that for?" Harry asked confused.

"Because you're an idiot." Louis said and glared at him. Harry seemed to understand what Louis meant and looked at me and then on the floor ashamed.

"Louis! Leave him alone." I said to Louis and went to hug Harry. He was surprised but he hugged me back hastily. We let go and I looked at Selena. Selena and Louis looked at each other and smirked. Louis is going to tease me so much today. I just know it.

"Shall we go?" I asked and everyone nodded.

We left the house and got in my car. I sat on the driver's seat, Harry in the passenger seat and Louis and Sel in the back seats. I started driving and we all went silent. Oh, come on guys!

"So.." I said cutting the silence. "When will you come again Louis?" I asked him. It's the first thing that popped in my mind but I really want to know so it's okay.

"December!" He said and I smiled. December is our month. We were both born in December.

"I wouldn't miss your birthday for the world." He said. Aw!

"I wouldn't miss your birthday for the world too."I said, looked at him real quick with a smile and then turned my gaze on the road again but noticed that Harry looked at Louis and me and then at his lap with a sad expression. Did I say something wrong?

"You okay?" I asked him. He nodded without looking at me. I didn't want to pressure him so I said nothing more. I took my right hand off the wheel and took Harry's hand. He looked at our hands and then me. I smiled to him. I want him to know that he can feel comfortable when he's with us. With me.

We are friends after all. Right?

Harry's phone rang in sign that he has a massage. He looked at it and widen his eyes but quickly covered it. He typed something and then put his phone back to his pocket again. He seemed more uncomfortable than before and he didn't even looked at me. Why is it so hard for him to feel comfortable around me? He seems to be fine with Louis.

Harry's POV

When I saw Taylor looking at Louis, I noticed that her smile went bigger and happier. It's obvious that she likes him and maybe even love him. And that breaks the last pieces of my heart.

I love her! But she'll never love me back.

That's the first time I fell in love. But you can't blame me. How can you not fall for her? She's the greatest person I have ever met. She's the first person that wanted to be my friend, she was always nice with me and never let my side even if she knew that this would be the best. She didn't let me give up and she literally saved my life. She makes me smile and feel better and that's something no one ever did. I don't even remember the last time I smiled before she comes in my life. She lights up my world. And she's so, so beautiful.

She noticed my sadness and asked me if I'm okay. I just nodded without saying a word. She then did something I didn't expect her to do. She took my hand in hers. I looked at our now joined hands and then her. She was smiling at me. My phone rang in sign I had a massage and I took it off my pocket. Massage? Who could send me a massage? I opened my phone and saw that it was Louis. I opened the massage and read it.

Louis: Enjoying your time mate? ;)

Harry: Shut up!

I send the massage and then put my phone back to my pocket. Taylor stopped the car and I looked outside the window to see that we were outside the club. Oh man! I've never been in a club before.

We got out the car and walked inside the club. There's so much noise in here. I never liked the noise. Maybe because I was used to the silence but still. We went in and sat in some couches in the corner and a waitress came. We told her what we wanted and she left. Actually, Louis ordered for me because I didn't know what to take. I don't really like alcohol. Taylor was talking with Selena and they were laughing. Good thing they have fun. Louis came to me and spoke.

"So..what are you going to do with Tay?" He asked. Huh?

"What do you mean?" I asked him confused. He came closer and whispered so Taylor wouldn't hear.

"You know. Aren't you going to tell her how you feel?"

"No!" I said immediately without even think about it. No fucking way. I'm never gonna tell her. I don't want to lose her.

"Why not?" He asked.

"Because she doesn't feel the same and that would destroy everything." I explained.

"How do you know?"

"How do I know what?" I asked.

"That she doesn't feel the same." He said. Why would she? She can have whoever she wants to. I doubt she would ever choose me. Plus she likes Louis. She never actually told me but the way she looks at him..I don't know. It just seems like that. And when I asked her if she likes him, she was stuttering and blushing. I'm not entirely sure about it but this is what I believe.

"I just know, okay?" I said.

"Well, what if I tell you that she DOES feel the same?" Louis asked and I looked at him. What? Is he for real?
