As the five of them left for the studio, Harry pulled Louis aside. Liam paused and looked at Louis for a second. He nodded, signaling him to go on without him. Liam sighed and followed the others. When no one was around, Harry looked at Louis with worry.
“Boobear, that look you gave in the car, what was that for?”
Louis shrugged innocently.
“What look?”
Harry punched his arm.
“Ow!”
Louis rubbed his pained arm vigorously.
“You know damn well what look I’m talking about.”
The older boy bit his lip.
“I saw a ghost.”
He shuddered. Harry shook his head.
“That’s not it.”
“How would you know?”
Harry rolled his eyes. Louis folded his arms as he waited for an answer.
“You said you thought you forgot something in the car.”
“Well, maybe I saw a ghost who helped me remember I forgot something.”
“That’s a lie.”
They stared at each other until Louis blinked, coughed, and started laughing. As he watched him laugh, Harry started laughing too. They both doubled over in laughter, only stopping when they’ve ran out of breath.
“You’re...the...worst...liar...ever.”
Harry wheezed. Louis tried to laugh again, but coughed instead. They spent the next few minutes coughing and wheezing. Finally, when they could talk again, Harry looked at Louis and spoke with a hint of seriousness in his voice.
“So, really, what was it about?”
Louis avoided his eyes.
“You...”
Harry waited for him to finish.
“...and Niall.”
Harry was taken aback.
“Me and Niall?”
Louis nodded slowly.
“What about us?”
Louis shrugged.
“I don’t know.”
Harry took in the words. I don’t know? He grabbed Louis’s shoulders.
“What the hell do you mean, I don’t know?!”
“Let go Harry! I don’t really know how to explain it!”
Harry released his grip and folded his arms.
“Well, you better.”
Louis watched him as he frowned, thought about it for a minute and sighed.
“Ask Liam.”
There. He did it. He threw Liam under the bus.
Harry narrowed his eyes.
“What does Liam know about this?”
