~ON HOLD~ Forced Fate [Larry] ••Collab••

Chapter 21

Louis' POV:

I watch the car drive away and look at the ground.

"Lou c'mon, it'll start to rain any minute." my mom says and I nod, putting my luggage into the car and sitting down in it.

"So Lou..." Lottie says smirking and I lean my head against the window.

"Hmm?" I ask.

"What's going on with you and Harry?" she smirks and I roll my eyes.

"Not now." I mumble and put my headphone in, listening to music.

I see Lottie crossing her arms in the mirror and smile a little to myself.

It's stupid. It's just one night until I see him again. First I didn't want to spend two weeks with him and now I don't even want to spend one night without him.

I close my eyes and wrap my arms around myself.

Nope, I didn't miss the coldness at all.

My mom parks the car in front of our house and we get out. I take my luggage and my mom unlocks the door walking in with the girls. I follow them and bring my stuff into my room.

It doesn't even look comfy anymore. My mom changed everything while I was gone. The furniture isn't at the same places anymore and it looks way too clean.

I sigh and sit down on my bed that isn't under the window now anymore. I take my headphones out and turn off the music, lying down. I cross my arms under my head and stare at the ceiling.

I can't help but think about school tomorrow again. I can't tell Harry to keep our relationship a secret. He would think it doesn't mean something to me or I don't want others to know that I'm with him. But at the same time I really don't want anybody to know. Not because Harry's embarassing or something like that. I love him and if things were a little different nothing would stop me from telling everyone. But I know he'll get hurt. And I know that I'll be the reason why he gets hurt. No matter what I do he'll be hurt in the end.

It sucks.

"Dinner is ready!" my mom shouts and I walk downstairs.

I sit down at the table and my mom smiles at me.

"You're really tan now love." she says and I shrug.

"I guess that's normal when you're in Hawaii for two weeks." I say.

She hands me a plate and sits down across from me. When everyone is downstairs and sitting at the table we start eating.

"So Lou, what's going on with you and Harry?" my mom asks and I sigh.

"Can I just eat?" I ask and she shakes her head.

"He's going to be my son in law, I want to know about what you feel for him now." she says, smiling slightly.

If I tell her that I love him she won. I can't let that happen. But they saw us kissing. But still I can't let her win. She will think she can do anything she wants with me. She should know her limits. As soon as I finish school I won't be living here anymore. Maybe I'll be living in a different country, I don't know. The only things I know are that I'm gonna live with Harry and that HarrY's food tastes better than my mom's.

"So?" she asks, pulling me out of my thoughts and I sigh.

I could just tell her. There are only a few months of school left anyway.

I shrug and continue eating. You don't talk with your mouth full of food.

"Louis stop eating and talk to your mother." my step-dad says and I swallow the food, sighing.
