DARE [Larry Stylinson AU]

"Go on, Louis!"  encouraged my friends as they grabbed hold and tugged at my arm making me jolt forward and follow after them, I was laughing along with them, every single one of them chanting over and over "He totally likes you back" or something like "I dare you"

We were all walking past a crowd of sweaty people dancing to the beat of the ear numbing music. I was jerked away by their grip on me, I spun around to face my dear friend Allison, who I refered to her as Allie, I could see her face in the dim light, and I could tell she was angry.

"Come on, Lou. Let´s go home"  she shouted over the loud music, "I think you've had one too many drinks for tonight"  she tugged at my shirt, trying to get me out of the pub; I then pulled back and shook my head at her.

"Allie, I'm fine. I can do this." I assured walking back to the small group of friends that were smiling at me and motioning for me to go with them. But Allie stepped in front of me, blocking my way, and forcing me to look at her.

"No you can't. Louis, and you won't." she pushed back on my chest, I held her wrists, squeezing them firmly, making her stop.

"Just trust me on this, yeah?"  She pulled back, twisting her hands until I released them.

"I can't let you humilliate yourself. Not like this."  

"At least they give me fair encouragement, why can't you?" I motioned her to the crowd, then stared down at her, after all she was my best friend, the least she could do was be there for me. 

"That's what they want you to do."

I ignored her and started towards them, they all cheered and lead me to a nearby bar, where a fairly recognizable lad, stood leaning agaisnt the bar counter.

I was left to approach him; I took a deep breath and walked towards him, his back was facing me, which gave me time to wipe the sweat accumulating on my forehead, my hands were shaking and my breathing was uneven but I shrugged it off.

I quickly placed a hand on his shoulder, spinning him around and closing the fair amount of space between us, by crashing my lips onto his.

I wanted to stay like that for ages, it felt so right, even though it was so wrong. 

You see. This just isn't any lad I found in a drunken night.

I've known this lad for as long as I could remember.

And we've been best friends ever since. Only problem is.

 

I've been in love with him for as long as I could remember,

I felt a harsh pain struck my cheek as I backed away suddenly. I took my hand up to my throbbing skin and gasped in pain; I looked up to awknowledge that he'd in fact slapped me.

In front of a gathering crowd of teens.

Everything went silent, everyone was silent. The music stopped playing, and all attention was on us. Part of me was saying 'run, get out of there' but i couldn't. I was frozen. Completely perplexed at what ha'd just happened.

I stared into his widening eyes, he immediately looked away and ran out of the room without another word.

I was left shoked, and everyone was left satisfied as they started laughing, the room filling with their whispers, gosseping about me. About my mistake. 

I let out a scream, as my body jerked upward, I took my hands up to cup my face, I was covered in sweat and my eyes stung at the bit of light that came across them. Looking around, I noticed it was was just a dream.

A horrid dream.

But the memory to me was very vivid than any movie i'd ever seen. For that was no dream, it was reality.

I kissed my best friend and ruined a lifetime of friendship. 

Something I could never get back. And it was all my fault.
