Long Live Us

Chapter Nine

(Harry's POV)

Those damn lights.

Where am I? Why do I have a killer headache? It literally feels like an elephant has invited his family to come stomp on my head.

"Unnggh" I grounded as I tried to sit up and make out my surroundings.

I froze.

There was brunette hair sticking out of my bed, laying right next to me.

Next thing I know I'm on the floor.

"Harry?" Louis' voice came from where I used to be moments ago.

"I'm alright..."

"What happened last night..." he stood up, but quickly wrapped the blanket around him realizing he was naked.

No words would come out of my mouth, no matter how hard I tried to force them out.

Memories came flashing back into my head.

"Shit..." I mumbled to myself.

"What, Harold! What!!" Louis yelled at me.

"Turn around, Louis..." He obeyed and slowly turned, his back facing me.

"Fuck!" I screamed as bright red scratch marks were all across his back.

"Did we.... D-di... Fuck..." Louis mumbled as he slid down the wall.

We sat in an awkward silence.

As if things weren't already bad, this makes everything worse...

"Hazza.." I was pulled out of my thoughts as I lifted my head, eying my friend with visible tears trying to leak from my eyes.

"Mate, don't cry. Please.." Louis pleaded as he came and sat on the ground next to me, pulling me in for a cuddle.

"I can't, I d-don't know, louis. I'm so

s-sorry!" I sobbed into his neck. He just continued shushing into my ear and rubbing my back in a comforting way.

"Hazza, mate. C'mon, it's all good. It was all just a mistake. I'm sorry, too."

We stayed in the cuddle for a few minutes before I broke away and wiped the stray tears away with my large hands.

"C-can we just try and forget?" I mumbled quietly.

He helped me onto the bed and slid the covers over my shaking body.

"Haz, nothing's gonna change. We'll always be best mates. I love you, man. I'm gonna head out. My mom's probably worried about me. I'll call you later. Try and rest up. Love you." He kissed the top of my head as he left the room.

I was left in my thoughts. If only he knew, I wanna be more than just mates...
