'Hurry uuup' Harry called to Niall as he walked across the car park towards his car which Harry has been waiting not so patiently next too.
'Yeh im coming, dont get your panties in a wad' Niall yelled towards Harry as he unlocked the car.
'Shut up, you talk so much shit' Harry laughed at Niall's choice of words as he climbed into the car.
'What was your problem at lunch anyway, you left so suddenly, barely even got two words out of ya today'
'Nothing, just wasn't in the mood for your bullshit' He turned and smirked at Niall giving him a small wink, so he knew he was joking, and a slight chuckle.
'Well aren't you just a sarcastic bastard today, what's got you out and talkative?'
'Oh sorry, i didn't mean for you to think i was being rude, I'm just, i don't know, in a good mood i guess' Harry really didn't know why he was talking so much. He didn't want Niall to think he was being unappreciative because he really wasn't, he loved every thing Niall did for him, if it wasn't for him he was sure he would spend his free time on his own.
'Don't apologize Harry, its a good thing, its good to feel happy' Niall turned to glance at Harry who was now looking out the window trying to avoid Niall's gaze. 'What'd you think of louis? You two seemed to be getting along really well.'
'I dont know, he seemed nice, he was talkative'
'Yeh i thought so too! He was funny though, had me laughing all morning really, did you not like him?'
'No no, it's not that! He did seem great' Harry sent Niall a smile letting him know he was being serious.
'Ah so what is it then?' Besides Harry's quick glance, Niall could tell Harry was still avoiding the topic Niall was trying to bring up.
'I dont know Ni, it's not important, really, he just brought things up that made me uncomfortable, you know?' Harry knew Niall's next question and he prayed Niall wouldn't ask it. He could tell Niall was now driving as slow as he possibly could as they were just a few streets away from their house.
'And what kinds of things was he bringing up young Harold?'
'Uh yeh, Niall it's not really important okay? Can you speed up a bit though, like i have a lot of home work to get done tonight?' Harry pat himself on the back for making Niall aware that he knew he had slowed down.
'Look Harry, how long have i known you for, eh?'
'11 years' Harry mumbled his response'
'And you know you have become my little brother, i see you the same I see Greg yeh?'
'Yes I know Niall, I get that, where are you going with this?' They had now pulled up into the drive way, but Harry knew better then to get out of the car.
'It's just me and mum, you are our family, and as long as we have known you, you have never opened up to us. Like you're always so quiet around the house, we only ever see you when we have meals or you need the bathroom, other than that you are in your room. Do you not feel comfortable with us? Like can we do anything to make it better? Just talk to one of us, I won't be offended if it's not me you don't want to talk to Hazz.' Harry honestly didn't know what to say. He could tell it was hard for Niall to bring that up because Niall was refusing to look at him, though Harry didn't exactly want to look at Niall either. He felt like he was going to cry, though he wouln't of course, he didn't want Niall to think he was weak, Niall wouldn't think that of course, but what does Harry know?
'I.' Harry started to talk but soon found that he couldn't. He wanted to, he really did, but within seconds he found himself running towards the front door of their house, and down the hall to his bedroom where he locked himself into his bathroom and cried. Harry isn't sure how long he sat there for, and he doesn't really care, he just doesn't know how to talk to Niall, he doesn't really know how to talk to any one.
What Harry didn't know is that Niall followed him closely behind. Now Niall isn't the brightest of boys, but when someone practically jumps out of your car and sprints towards the house, something is wrong. So Niall followed Harry at a safe distant, and he met the worried glance Maura sent him after seeing Harry rush through the house, and he met the door being slamed in his face, followed by another door slamming. After hearing the second door slam, Niall took it upon himself to walk in and make sure Harry was okay. He was guessing Harry was in his bathroom, so he walked over to the door after quickly examining Harry's room. Just as Niall was about to knock on the door, he was met with a muffled sob.
'Niall, what's wrong with Harry?' Niall was quick to shush Maura and push her out of Harry's room, quietly closing the door behind him. 'What, what's wrong!?'
'Nothing, well I mean, I don't know, I just tried talking to him and he bolted out of the car and now I'm freaking out because I made him cry mum, what do I do?'
'You tried talking to the boy?! What did you say? Oh god is he actually crying?! Is he alright?'
'Does it look like i know if he is okay!? Yes he is actually crying, i heard him! I don't know mum i just said that we've known him eleven years and that he can talk to us because we really know nothing about him and he just seemed so different today, I mean you should have seen him mum! He was whining at me and he made all these snarky comments and there was this new kid, Louis, and i introduced them and they seemed to get along so well and then he just left and I just don't get it!'
Maura and Niall were soon interrupted by a knock at the door.
'You get that, I'll go try to talk to him' Maura calmy replied after taking in every thing Niall had just told her.
'Yeh okay, tell him im sorry would ya?' Maura nodded her head and swiftly made her way through Harry's bedroom while Niall walked to the door, followed by another knock. 'Yeh i know i heard ya, I'm coming!' Niall was met with a boy with soft hair and bright eyes, 'Louis, hey man what's up!'
'Oh hi, I wasn't sure I had the right, thought the boys might've pulled a joke on me because I'm the new guy and all! I just wanted to say thanks for making me feel so welcome today, it really helped with you know the whole new school, new to town thing.'
'Ah yeh that's no problem, any one who can make me cackle as much as you did, is a friend of mine!' Harry was right, Niall thought, I do talk some shit.
'Yeh thanks, I was just wondering if I could possibly speak to Harry?'
