Louis walks outside with a lit cigarette in hand. It was especially cold that day and the nicotine kept Louis warm.

"Come on, fag!" Louis watches Niall come driving down the street.

"Watch your fuckin mouth, pal." Louis spits as he tosses his cigarette on the floor and gets in the right side of the car.

"So you're sober now?" Niall speaks up with snide smile.

"Sure." Louis replies. Louis had been feeling moody ever since he had stopped taking drugs.

"For any special reason... Or person?" Niall nudges and Louis groans.

"No." Louis snaps.

"Alright, mate. No need to get snippy." Niall laughs. He likes pushing Louis's buttons.

Louis feels off that day at school. He was either high or anxious at school. Never just sober. It made it to where Louis was able to notice things more. One of those things being how many boys flirt with Harry.

"Nice skirt, Harry. What material is it?" Some bloke with black clothes and a nose ring starts rubbing Harry's thigh through his skirt.

Louis is seething in his seat.

"Harry! Get back here." Louis snaps and the boy flirting with Harry scowls at Louis.

"But this is my se-"

"Now." Louis growls and Harry does as told.

"Don't let other boys touch you, only I touch you." Louis told Harry in a stern voice as he sat down next to Louis.

"It's fine, Louis. He compliments me everyday. So do a few other boys. They're just being nice." Harry is so naive Louis thinks.

"They're flirting with you, Harry. They want to do the stuff we only do together with you." Louis tries to get Harry to understand.

"Oh my." Harry gasps. He didn't at all want any of the boys to touch him the way Louis did.

"I don't want that." Harry frowns.

"Neither do I, so next time a guy does that tell me. Got it." Louis demands.

"Got it." Harry nods.

As the day goes on Louis sees over ten different guys flirt with his Harry. Louis shouts at all of them and even almost gets in a fist fight with one huge guy.

Louis is happy though when Harry does as he asks and ignores the boys and swats their hands away when they try to touch him.

"Hey, Louis! Wait up!" Louis is walking by himself when Matt comes chasing after him.

Louis ignores Matt's calls and keeps walking. Matt does eventually catch up.

"What's your fuckin problem?" Matt asks while catching his breath.

"These fuckin faggots flirting with me boy!" Louis yells.

"You now just noticed, guys have been flirting with Harry since he started wearing short skirts." Matt says.

"I never noticed." Louis realizes he didn't really notice much until he's been sober.

"How?" Matt laughs.

"Cause I didn't start caring about Harry until a few days ago." Louis shrugs.

"Boyfriend of the year goes to Louis Tomlinson!" Matt teases. Louis rolls his eyes.

"So...have you thought about taking Harry on date?" Matt suddenly asks.

"What do you care?" Louis furrows his eyebrows.

"I care about you two." Matt lies.

"Eleanor is making you do this, isn't she?" Louis laughs at how Eleanor can make Matt do whatever she wants.

"Yeah, she told me Harry thinks you're embarrassed of him since you haven't taken him on a date. Do it so Eleanor doesn't yell at me for not convincing you to do so." Matt begs.

"Fine, I'll ask him on a date for Friday night. You can tell Eleanor." Louis sighs. He wasn't really into "dates" but now that he didn't hate Harry, he didn't hate the idea of taking him on a date.

"Thanks, mate. See you tomorrow." Matt makes the turn down the street to his house and Louis walks the rest of the way home alone.
"Louis." Louis looks up to see Zayn sitting on his porch with a blunt between his thumb and index finger.

"Sup, mate." Louis nods to Zayn.

"I wanna go down to the house. You're coming with." Zayn stands up and starts walking.

"I'm not getting high!" Louis shouts as he stayed in place.

"I didn't say you have to!" Zayn shouts back. Louis shrugs and decides to come along.

Louis sits on the couch trying his best to refrain from picking up the needle of heroin on the table and injecting it in his vain.

"Get me some fuckin weed." Louis bounces his leg anxiously.

"I knew you would crack." Zayn laughs as he hands Louis a lighter and a blunt.

"Fuck off, weed isn't shit and Harry said I can smoke it." Louis takes a drag.

"So now you can about what Harry has to say, Louis Tomlinson has feelings for fag boy." Zayn laughs.

"If you call him that again I'll shove barbed wire up your arse." Louis gets serious but it doesn't faze Zayn.

"Alright. Sorry, mate. But you like him don't you?" Zayn asks while taking a drink of room temperature beer.

Louis really thinks about that question. He could be stubborn against his true feelings and say no but he would just be lying. Louis really liked Harry. He liked talking with him and just being near him. Something Louis never thought he would feel.

"Yes, I do." Louis admits and prepares for judgment from Zayn. But it doesn't come.

"That's good mate, you two are... Cute I guess." Zayn half smiles and it surprises Louis.
"Don't be so fuckin surprised, no one hates you or judges you for dating Harry. Everyone actually is pretty envious cause Harry is fuckable as fuck and you're a lucky fucker to have him as yours." Zayn admits to Louis.

"You've gotta stop being so stubborn, Louis. Just live life, mate." Louis decided to listen to Zayn and not get angry and tell him to fuck off for telling him how to live his life.

"You're right." Louis sighs. He takes a drag.

"Oh I'm taking Harry on a date Friday night, have any ideas of a place I could take him?" Louis turns to look at Zayn.

"Cinema. Bitches love the cinema." Zayn laughs and Louis rolls his eyes.

Louis leaves for home once he finishes his blunt. He buys tickets online for a movie to take Harry to. Which he asks his mum which movie would be good for a date. Louis goes to bed feeling good about himself for the first time in forever. He now really liked this new feeling of sober.
