Lottie 19
Louis 17
Harry 15










Harry was in a situation. Recently, he'd been wetting his bed. This was new to the boy, as he hadn't really experienced it in a while; the last time it had happened he'd been around seven at the most. But now, here he was as a newly turned 15 year old, waking up in wet sheets. Anne, his mother, wasn't really sure what was going on, but she had an idea. The boy had just entered high school after all, and that can definitely be a scary transition from the middle school. He was starting to get a lot of homework and had to study for hours, and Anne figured his body was just making it known he was stressed. She'd consulted their neighbor and long time friend, Jay, for help, and she had the same idea. Normally, boys Harry's age don't wet the bed, but pile on enough stress and it can happen.

Everyone had hoped the bedwetting wouldn't be a long term thing. Being stressed was one thing, but throw in waking up late hours of the night to clean up from your own urine, and that was an entirely different kind of stress. Not only did it stop Harry from getting the amount of sleep he needed, but he also worried about keeping his mum up since she always woke up to help Harry clean. Harry was also afraid of anyone at school finding out, even though he knew there was no way for them to. Really, Harry's life just wasn't great at the moment. It only got worse though when his neighbor and (basically) older brother, Louis, started wondering what was going on with the lad.

For as long as Harry could remember, he'd lived two houses down from the Tomlinson's. He had met Louis when he was around five, and at the time, Louis was seven. Louis even had an older sister named Lottie, so Harry always had plenty of playmates. Their mothers bonded as well, both of them having recently been through a divorce.

As the years went by, the Styles and Tomlinson families continued to get on nicely. Harry and Louis played together when they were little and Harry always attended Louis' football games, being known by the whole team as Louis' little brother. Anne and Harry had been alongside Jay and Louis during Lottie's high school graduation. They were basically one big family, and the family expanded when Jay got remarried the summer before Louis' junior year. The whole family (including Anne and Harry) loved Dan and welcomed him with open arms. Anne had been Jay's maid of honor and Harry walked down the aisle alongside Lottie since Louis was best man. Really, the neighbors were close as anyone could be, and nobody would have it any other way.

Over the years, Anne was incredibly thankful for Louis. It was just Anne and Harry, so had it not been for Louis, Harry probably wouldn't have had a male role model in his life. Sure, Louis was only two years older, but he had matured a lot faster than Harry had. He was a huge role model for Harry, too, the young boy going on and on about how fun Louis was or how cool he was. Really, Louis was great for Harry. Nobody really wanted to get on Harry's bad side since his "big brother" was the best football player on the team and his "older sister" had been the "hottest girl to grace Doncaster High." Harry also always had someone to talk to, Louis even giving Harry the basics of the puberty talk when he began asking questions. Louis was Harry's big brother, and Anne was immensely thankful for that.

Obviously, the neighbors being like siblings, sleepovers happened all the time. Louis had stayed with the Styles' a lot when Harry was younger since the boy was still going through his parental separation anxiety phase, but as Harry got more comfortable, he began staying at Louis' house. The two boys would even stay together on school nights since nobody had a problem with it. After all, there were only two houses between theirs.
