Louis' POV

I quickly got into my car, driving to my 'special place' in the woods. It was a creek area that nobody ever seemed to go but me. I always went there when I was stressed or to get away from everything. Even sometimes just to do homework. When I arrived I parked my car in the parking lot at the park that wasn't too far away, jogging my way to the spot.

Fuck.... I probably beyond overreacted by running away but god damnit I wasn't ready. I wasn't ready to tell anyone.

I feel so dumb for not realizing it's sunday afternoon and just kissing him where anyone could walk in and see. Just my luck that it was Niall...

I know he's supportive but I kind of liked it being a secret. Is that bad? It's not like I didn't want to tell the world that I love Harry and that he's mine because of course I do. It was just kind of hot being our little secret that nobody knew about. It was fun and sneaky.

Ugh.

I feel awful for running off but... that's me, thats what I do, I guess.

I sat down on the only rock that was dry, resting my chin in my palm, sighing deeply.

I should take Harry to this place. Maybe it can be our place? If he's not mad at me when I come back. Maybe I'll take him on a date here?

I kind of wanted to see Niall's reaction when I told him I was dating his best friend. Of course he would've been happy for us but it would've been fun to tell him rather than him finding out. He honestly probably a little hurt that I didn't tell him, or that Harry didn't tell him. Fuck what if they are both mad at me when I get back?

I spent about ten more minutes in the woods, worrying about if my brother and boyfriend were going to be upset I left.
I got up and walked to my parked car, getting in, taking out my phone and finding Harry's contact.

Louis: I'm sorry for running, I panicked.

I then drove off toward my house. I swung open the front door to reveal an empty house. I sighed and sat on the couch where me and Harry previously were.

**

It was now monday morning and me and Niall were off to school. I stopped and got the 3 of us (including Harry) coffees.

"So why'd you run?" Niall asked as we arrived at the school.

I sighed, frowning at him.

"I just... wasn't ready." I admitted.

"Lou. You know I'm always gonna be happy for you. My brother and best friend? That's great." He smiled a bit.

This made me smile as well, knowing he wasn't mad.

"I know, I just freaked. I didn't even know I liked boys before I met him." I said, looking down at my legs shyly.

"That's fuckn adorable, man. I'm happy you guys are finally together because, jesus, he's liked you for so long." Niall laughed, unbuckling his seat belt and opening the door.

I let out a small laugh and got out of the car.

"You just outted your best friend." I laughed. "You didn't know that I knew that he liked me for a while."

"Oh c'mon it was obvious." He chuckled, shrugging.

I just smiled and shook my head a bit, grabbing Harry's coffee and closing my car door with my foot, struggling to lock it before skillfully putting keys in my pocket. We walked into the school and I went straight for my boyfriend's locker. I saw his curly hair was a little messier than usual, he was wearing a black button up that showed a little bit of his chest, grey skinny jeans and lace up boots that went a little over his ankles. He looked hot.

"Hazza." I said, seeing his green eyes peak from his locker, a small smile creeping onto his face.

"I got you your favorite coffee." I said, handing it to him.

He took it, putting it up to his nose and breathing in the scent.

He's so perfect.

"I'm really sorry about running yesterday." I said, getting a little closer to him.

"I just... was sad that you did. I get that you weren't ready, but its Niall, he's happy for us. And I thought we could've just told him together but you just left me on my own, embarrassed that he walked in on us." He spoke, taking a small breath after, as if he's been holding it in.

I nodded, looking at my feet.

"I know, baby. I'm sorry. I feel awful I just got really nervous. I will make it up to you. We can go somewhere fun together and do whatever you want?" I pushed, hoping he'd forgive me. "I love you."

An instant wide smile spread across his face, his cheeks getting red.

"You know I love you too. It's alright, I can't be mad at you, ever." He said and got closer to me our noses almost touching.

I was suddenly aware we were in school, in public.

Fuck it.

I smiled and pressed my lips against his, my hand going under his jaw to press his face closer. He was obviously very suprised by my actions. He knew I wasn't out yet and I'm kissing him in the hallway of our school where anyone could see. He soon after kissed back though.
We pulled apart after a couple seconds and he looked around a bit, face red. Only a few people were staring.

"Lou, you know we're in school right?" He asked, biting his lip.

"I know." I nodded, a proud smile on my face, "I want everyone to know you're mine and you belong me and nobody else."

His dimpled smile appeared on his face once again, face bright. I closed his locker and grabbed his hand, lacing our fingers together as we walked down the hallway. Yes, people stared, people whispered, but for once... I didn't care.

THE END.

I had so much fun writing this and I'm actually sad that I'm ending it. I guarentee that I'm gonna write another fic, 99.9% chance it's gonna be Larry bc DUH. Maybe leave suggestions for what it should be about bc I don't have many ideas!!!
