Cheater // Larry

Chapter Five //

"I um..." Harry stuttered, a wash of guilt and to be completely honest, temptation gushing over him.

"Theres no reason not to, right?" Lou said confidently. Harry had denied being in a relationship so the game was pretty much in the bag. Usually Louis at least had to make the subject forget about their partner but in this case Harry had denied the existence of his all together so it only seemed logical.

You would think he was being cocky, but at a rough 93% success rate it seemed more like just going with the odds.

"Well...I lied, I have a boyfriend. Im sorry." Harry hesitantly spoke, already regretting his words. He loved his boyfriend, he really did but there was something about this man...

A spark.

A fiery inferno of passion suppressed into simple conversation which the boys spoke between them. Harry's sister had once told him that if he ever felt a spark with anybody, to never ignore it because months or maybe years from that moment, he will regret it.

His boyfriend was loving, his boyfriend was safe and comfortable but Louis was exciting and full of character. You didn't need to talk to him for more than five minutes to become completely enchanted.

"Oh, you thought I meant...-" Louis burst out in believable fake laughter. Rule one of a slut - always be able to get what you want. Rule two - always have a plan to secure rule one.

This was Louis' rule two.

"No no no - I meant for some tea or something"

Harry blushed, feeling embarrassed he had so blatantly denied this man a simple cup of tea by assuming more. Just as he thought, Louis wasnt finding him attractive at all, maybe just good company.

He tried not to think of how his heart sank when Louis started laughing. It shouldnt, not when Niall was somebody to love and trust but it did. Thats what scared Harry.

Louis himself was trying to fight off the temptation of laughing properly, had he enchanted the other so much that he did not realise that he was in a place built for teas and coffee?

"Oh, well in that case, okay" Harry smiled, his dimples indenting clearly making Louis lick his lips. Harry ignored this gesture, passing it off as Louis having dry lips or whatever reason ((although if Harry did say so himself, Louis' lips were perfect)) and also ignored the tingle in his stomach.

"Perfect."
