Mind Games | L.S

3 ; three

The next morning Harry woke up, his eyes not wanting to open but by the amount of brightness seeping through the window, he knew that he had to force them open and get up.
He rubbed his eyes, stretching a bit before sitting up and looking around Niall's room. Thoughts of last night flooded his mind as he brought his hand up to his mouth, pushing his fingers against his lips, where Louis' fingers had been the night before.

"Hey, you okay?" A voice asked, making Harry jump a little, not knowing he wasn't alone. He turned to see Niall, scrolling through his phone on his bed. He sighed a little.

"Yea, just tired still." he let out an airy laugh. He saw Niall nod.

He stood up and stretched once more. He looked out the door that was halfway cracked open, walking out it and standing in the doorway before looking over at the couch, hearing the small volume of the tv. He saw Louis sitting there, staring at him. He gave a questioning look before looking down at what he was staring at and he gasped, he was only in boxers.
Harry quickly ran back inside Niall's room and closed the door, he must've slipped his clothes off in his sleep.

"A heads up that I'm almost naked would've been nice, Niall" he said looking over at his giggling friend.

"It's funnier this way." Niall laughed before returning his attention to his phone.

Harry rolled his eyes before pulling on a pair of sweatpants and a random shirt that he wasn't sure if it was his or Niall's. He walked out of his room again and looked over a Louis, smiling a little, nervously.
Louis just gave him a weird look before turning to the tv. Harry was confused but brushed it off before going to the kitchen and helping himself to coffee.
Liam walked out fully dressed, giving a smile to Harry.

"Hey man, I gotta go to my sister's birthday party, but I might be back tomorrow or we'll hang next weekend?" he said, implying that he feels bad for not spending much time with him this weekend.
Harry nodded, understanding.

"Yeah, I'll see you later." he smiled and gave his friend a hug before he walked out the door.

Harry turned around after watching Liam leave seeing Louis stare at him, looking kind of irritated.

"Get a room" he mumbled.

"What?" Harry asked, confused by why Louis was so bothered.

"You heard me. Get a room, you guys are obviously super gay." Louis repeated, looking over at Harry.

"No? He's just one of my best friends. I don't know why you care so much anyway." He said, getting slightly irritated himself.

Louis just sighed and walked over to him, putting his hand in his hair, like he did last night.

"That's my shirt..." he said, his eyes scanning Harry's body.

"Oh. Sorry I thought it was Niall's." he said, looking at Louis, waiting for a reaction.

"It looks better on you, anyway." He then shook his head and pushed past Harry with an angry sigh, stomping to his room.

"What the f*ck?" He whispered to himself before watching Niall walk out of his room, just in time to not witness the weird display of emotions Louis just put on.

Harry just smiled at Niall, trying to pretend that his heart wasn't still racing. He took another sip of his coffee.

"Want to have a movie night?" Niall asked.

He nodded with a small smile, "Yeah that sounds fun. I can go to the store and pick up extra snacks and stuff, but I need a ride." he said.

Niall nodded, "Louis can drive you, if that doesn't make you too nervous." he suggested, a playful smile on his lips, knowing exactly what he's suggesting.

Harry tried to act casual, "Uhm, yeah sure?" he gave a small laugh.

"Louis! Drive Harry to the store so we can get food!" Niall basically screamed.

Louis walked out of his room looking annoyed, "Why do I always have to babysit you and your boyfriend." he said looking at Niall.

"Shut up, neither of us have a car, so when he do you'll be off the hook." he said, rolling his eyes.

"Fine, you have 20 minutes to get ready." He said, now looking at Harry.

He nodded and hurried off to Nialls room to get changed.

He slipped off his current clothes and put on black jeans, a red t shirt, and his same black vans. He quickly put on some deodorant and walked out. It took him about 15 minutes, including the time it took to find his phone and wallet buried under blankets and pillows in Niall's room.

When they arrived at the store, Harry got out of the car and hurried into the store, picking out some snacks he knows Niall likes, and some he likes, along with soda and iced tea.

"You could join me and Niall for the movie night, yknow. It was fun playing games with you yesterday." He said looking over at Louis scanning the different snacks.

"Oh uhh. Maybe I will." He said with a blank expression.

The thought of him and Louis cuddling and watching movies together made him smile widely, and his heart flutter. He knew it was dumb to be thinking of that because he knew it would never happen but he couldn't help but wonder.
Harry just nodded at him.

"Feel free to pick out some stuff you want, its on me." he said with a small smile.

"Thanks" Louis gave a small smile, putting a couple energy drinks and candy bars in the cart.

"And maybe when Niall falls asleep we can play games?" He suggested, getting close to Harry, stroking his cheek gently, then walking off to another aisle. Leaving Harry with his mouth hanging open and his heart racing yet again.
