Can I dip? | Larry Stylinson

Beeping. Sharp pain on his wrist, head and whole body. His closed eyes can sense a bright light. Can this actually be heaven?

"Avail a new mattress to get a free Iphone X—"

"Stupid fucking android that gets ads into their lock screens—"

Harry blinks up slowly as his vision starts to get clearer. He wakes up to the sound of Niall's phone, getting ads.

"Want better eyesight? Get your new contacts for 12.99–"

"Fuck off, I don't want contact lenses! Shut the fuck up—" Niall slams his android on the couch, making sure to not break it. He's not that rich to be able to replace his phone like that. He slams his butt on the couch and groans. "I fucking hate this phone."

"Why do you have an android anyway?" Niall jerks his head up to a droopy looking Harry connected to machines and stuff.

"Oh you're awake."

"Yeah—AHH—" Harry feels his head throbbing. "Please don't tell me I have a brain injury or something."

Niall chuckles, "No! You don't. You hit your head lightly on the sidewalk when the car ran over your left foot. Your head kind of landed on the old lady's fat pouch. "

"And I also think that an old lady's reflex skills are better than yours."

"Why?"

"That old lady kind of saved your life since she pulled her grocery bags back so when that car was about to hit you,you hit the sidewalk instead. At least that's what I heard."

"I think you thought you were dead, didn't you?"

"U-uhm, yeah. I actually thought I was already seeing heaven. Wow, that-that's so cool."

"But she is kind of also the reason to your near death experience...so don't get all grateful and shit. I told you to never trust old ladies who struggle to reach the other side of the street without anyone helping them."

"I told you they were evil."

"Well at least she saved me."

"Well at least you have a broken foot, how's that?"

"Touché." Harry giggles. Niall rolls his eyes. "Want a bigger d—"

"Oh for fuck's sake!"

"Why does it even do that?"

"Ugh! I don't know? It told me to download like five system cleaners from the playstore and-and ever since that, it gave me ads every now and then. What a fucking shitty phone."

"I told you I can give you one. I have a spare that you can use. Apple stuff have no viruses. It's great."

"Fuck no! I ain't a gold digger best friend!" Niall scoffs, showing his android. "This." He points at it. "I can deal with."

"I don't want to look like I'm only friends with you because you're rich."

Harry tries reaching for Niall but he gets excruciating pain from his shoulder instead. "AHHHH!"

"I thought I only had a foot injury! It looks like I broke every single bone of my body. This crap freaking hurts!"

Niall chuckles, "I like it when you replace vulgar words with baby 6 year old words." Harry glares.

"Now don't tell me you're 6 because you're not."

Harry groans, scratching his seemingly itchy scalp. He also smells his armpits. He scowls. "Eugh, how many days have I been here anyways?"

"For about, 4 days?"

"Now, Harry, remember to take care of your cast. If it itches, try antihistamines, NEVER i mean NEVER try using something to scratch it. It will have permanent scarring and you will regret it." Doctor Steven says, Harry nods.

"And also, your cast is not water proof which means you're NOT allowed to submerge it into water. You can only have sponge baths."

"And lastly, call me immediately when your foot cast either hurts, gets foul odor, gets a crack or if you ever get unusually high fever. That's all for now! Come back in a month. Your injury isn't that bad but I'll still check if we'll be able to remove it in a span of 4 weeks." Harry smiles, reaching for a hug.

"Thank you, doctor Stevens. I'll be back. Good bye."

"No problem, keep an eye out for your cast!"

Niall smiles dryly and waves back.

"Did you tell mum and dad about this already?" Harry asks, holding on to his crutches carefully as they pass by some steps.

"Oh my gosh, not yet. They're gonna kill me. Oh no—"

"They really are gonna." Harry admits, nodding slowly. "Should I call them?" Niall asks, already fishing for his phone.

"I don't think they're gonna take it lightly. Let's just tell mum—in person so it would be better?"

"Let's just go by their house." Niall announces, already walking pass Harry to the car. He is doomed.

—
Niall drives Harry's car on the way to his parents'. They first go through high security before going into the posh neighbourhood where their house is located.

Niall never gets used to seeing Harry this rich. He was once only a normal lad but now—he blew up. Every time he comes around his house, he looks at the surroundings and think of how he's not living this way.

They now arrive at the huge gate, in front of the massive mansion they now own. It only took 12 years for all of this to happen. Wow.

Niall honks the car horn, making the guards slowly open the gates.

Niall parks the car beside the fountain that looks like it's from the mythical times in Greece. He swore it wasn't here last time.

"Can you ring the door bell?"

"Okay." Niall steps on the welcome mat and pressed the door bell lightly. It rings.

"Coming!"

The door opens and he sees his mum dressed up in a silk robe with frilly ends.

"Hi."

"Oh my lord, what happened? Come here." Anne guides his son on to the couch. "Niall, come come."

"I-I sorta got into an accident."

"Yeah, no shit." Niall says.

Harry glares at him as if he's shooting daggers out of his eyes, "Niall! Mum's here."

"I told you to be careful! You only have a day before you go to the UK. How are you supposed to live alone?" Harry frowns. "I-I can bring Niall along!"

Niall perks up, "what? I have uni!"

"We can just pay for yours. You can go to uni with me there." Anne listens.

"Are you sure?" Niall asks.

"Yeah! Of course."

Anne sighs, "alrighty then, I might have to ask Robin about this but I'm sure he'll allow you two."

Harry smiles in success and elbows a sheepish looking Niall. "We're going to uni together! We're going to uni together!" Harry sing songs at Niall.

"Oh shut up!" Niall chuckles and pokes Harry's dimples.

"Now pack up! You boys are gonna be leaving LA tomorrow."
