Let us Love - Larry Stylinson

Chapter 7

'I gotta go in 5 minutes'

'Wait'

I stand up from the sofa and walk over to Louis. He's got his Maths exam today. I know he's pretty nervous but he can do it.

I take off my necklace. It is a silver one with a tiny cross. I actally never take it off. I got it from my dad when he left mum I guess. I place it around his neck and lock it at the back. The silver cross fits perfectly in the little hole at the end of his neck, inbetween his collarbones. I slide my fingers over his neck and look into his sapphire eyes.

'Maybe it will give you luck'

'Harry you don't have to'

'No. I know that good luck thing is bullshit but you can wear it. It suits you better than it does on me'

Louis smiles a bit shy and I smile back.

'Good luck'

Louis looks at me a bit scared and desperate, as he is begging for something. No i'm not gonna allow him to use drugs before his exam. I know he still isn't completely clean, but he's not gonna take it in now.

'No you are not going to let that shit poison you any longer'

'But I will fail'

'You won't fail. You know all the practising I did with you? It was without any drugs influence. So you're gonna make the test without it as well. I know you can do it.'

He still doesn't seem to be convinced.

I stroke his cheek with my thumb. 'You can do it'

He sighs

'Lou if I promise it will be alright, will you promise me that you keep your hands of that rubbish?' He nods. 'Okay' I kiss him on his soft lips and smile. 'I know you can do this. Now go or you'll be too late'

I walk through the school corridors as I hear someone behind me. 'Harry'

It's Niall

I don't stop because I really don't want to talk to him right now. I'm still quite angry that he and Zayn didn't show any interest in Louis the last month.

'Haz cmon I want to talk'

He grabs my arm and i shake it away. But Niall is stronger than me, you will laugh at me if you compare his arm muscles to mine.

Okay okay i can't go on i need to give in.I turn around and look annoyed at Niall. I sigh irritated

'What?'

'Sorry that I didn't really show up'

'You're a little late with apologizing now' I look at the floor

'I know mate. But Zayn and I just don't really trust him'

There's a little silence for a while.

'WellI do'

Niall looks at me. 'He's gay as well isn't he?'

'Yup'

'So, you guys are a serious thing right now'

I nod.

'Doesn't he have the same math exam as Zayn today?'

I nodd again, I don't really want to speak. I always use body language when I'm annoyed or angry.

'And you are sure he didn't' He brings two finger close to his mouth, as a sign of smoking drugs.

'No' I spit out harsh 'And if you don't believe me, that's your problem' Niall sighs.

'Haz I want the best for you, don't forget that. But if you trust him, then I guess I should let you be happy but don't say I didn't warn you if this turns out in a bad way' He walks away.

I'm not sure how Niall and I stand right now. Is this what you call a fight? I don't know. I never fight with Niall. I have a little argue with Zayn sometimes but I never fight with Niall. He is just somebody you can't be mad at. But for some reason I was extremely harsh, but he deserves it. If he doesn't believe Louis....

It is the end of the day and I'm dying to get home. I wonder how Louis made his exam. I walk through the hallways to my locker as I hear somebody calling my name. 'Haz' It is Zayn, standing with a couple of other lads I don't know.

Ugh no not again.

'Where are you going? To your lovely Louis friend again?' I can hear the mean undertone in his voice.

I bite my under lip to stop myself from insulting him with every harsh word i know. I don't know why i get angry so fast today.

'Yes. Is that a problem to you?'

'No not at all. I just don't understand why you choose him instead of us'

'I am not choosing anyone Zayn' I spit out

'I'm sure the guy used drugs for the exam. He seemed pretty stoned when I saw him'

'Shut the fuck up zayn. He didn't'

'Why so harsh Haz? We're friends right?'

I sigh irritated 'Yeah sure, if you will turn into the old Zayn instead of this asshole you are now, we can be friends'

I see his jawbone stand out of biting on his teeth of anger and he walks a few feet closer to me.

'Let's not forget that you're the one who hangs out with weird gay junks'

That's it. I don't know what made me so angry but my hands are becoming fists and i have to bite my teeth to not scream at him.I feel my blood boiling.

What the hell is he thinking? He doesn't know anything about Louis and what he goes through.

Before i can realize what I am doing, I feel my fist punching Zayn's jaw.
