*Four Months Later*

"You still haven't told him, have you?" Zayn questions as he and Louis wait for the other three to come, well, two actually...Liam called in sick today, "No I didn't, now could you please stop asking me every five minutes? It's getting on my nerves," the younger boy says, "Okay, moody...but you're gonna have to tell him eventually."

"You've been saying the same thing for the past four months -, " Louis says and Zayn interrupts him with a look that says 'That's what I'm talking about you idiot,' and before Louis can say anything in response, Harry and Niall sit down in front of them.
"Are you guys excited about later?" Niall questions before taking a bite of his beef sandwich "Yea I'm pretty sure Ms. Adams will love it," Harry says, his eyes nonchalantly wandering towards the empty space in front of Louis where a tray is supposed to be, "Shut up," Louis informs before Harry can even open his mouth. "I didn't say anything," Harry argues "You were going to," Louis says and Harry rolls his eyes before eating his own food.
"I'm going to sit with the girls if you don't mind," Niall says before standing up and disappearing towards the girl's signature table.
"Liam's not gonna like that," Zayn informs - once Niall's out of earshot - before standing up himself, "Tell him," he whispers into Louis's ear - when Harry isn't looking - before disappearing and sitting down beside Perrie, with whom he's been having a thing since they started their project.

"Did you tell him?" Zayn questions plopping down beside the feathery-haired boy, "Yea, and now he's glued to me like a freaking leech," Louis explains, "Wasn't he already glued to you before?" Zayn says smirking and the younger boy punches his arm playfully and rolls his eyes, but before Zayn can hit him back, Harry appears out of nowhere and sits down on Louis' other side.
"Alright class, today we're going to watch your finished projects," Ms. Adams announces, before looking at the list in her hand, "Ryan, your group is up," she calls out and a group of five walks to the front.

"Harry, I have to say, yours was the best one yet," Ms. Adams says clapping her hands after watching their movie; when the boys look around, everyone has this half-angry look on their faces and those who still have to present their projects, are shooting looks at each other that say "Our movie's shit,'.
The boys can't help but look at each other with a smug expression on their faces.

"Niall, what are you doing here?" Liam questions as he opens the door to reveal the blonde boy, "I came to see how you're doing and to tell you how the movie went," Niall explains and Liam motions him to come in.
Niall follows his friend upstairs and plops on the bed with Liam copying his motions and almost falling on top of him.
"So...what grade did we get?" Liam questions while looking at the ceiling, "Ms. Adams gave us an A+ because she thought it was the best of all...we still have to see what Mrs. Ferguson thinks about it, so it's not official yet," Niall explains. "I'm pretty sure Mrs. Ferguson will like it too, they both kinda have the same taste when it comes to movies or art in general," Liam informs and after that, the room turns completely silent, none of the boys wanting to say anything.

"Hey, Li -" Zayn starts but stops dead in his tracks when he sees Niall and Liam lying beside each other on the bed "Hey Niall," he greets earning a wave from the Irish lad, "Yes Zayn?" Liam asks referring to what Zayn was going to tell him, "Oh yeah...I just wanted to say that Louis and I are staying at Harry's tonight, I came here to say 'Bye'" Zayn explains, "Okay, see you tomorrow mate," Liam says and Niall waves him a 'bye' before Zayn leaves the room.
