Two Ghosts // l.s

Do you hear bells?

•

Two weeks had past since the boys had temporarily moved out to Saffron Walden. As much as Harry and Louis missed their apartment, they never got bored of waking up to the white musk smell the barn house brought.

Last week they had gone for dinner to Mia's and it was wonderful, they learnt Mia was a widower. They shared stories from when they were young and it turns out Mia was Sarah's best friend in school. They used to sit and chat on the swing set every day but  they drifted apart because Sarah moved towns to become a professional stylist.

Harry found it funny how small the world really is. He knew that the barn house was Sarah's childhood home, but she'd never told him of her childhood friends.

Harry and Louis had gone shopping yesterday in Cambridge. They got recognised a couple of times by fans who congratulated them on coming out. They were incredibly understanding about no pictures and that they couldn't say they saw Harry and Louis in Cambridge. The fans wished them the best and promised to keep the boy's presence a secret.

Harry was so happy about the fans being supportive that he hugged them and then insisted he bought them lunch.

They bought home Essentials and some extra little things because they wanted too. It was nice to get out of the house. It seemed almost like a normal life.

Harry couldn't help notice when he and Louis went past Diamond heaven, a wedding shop, the shorter boy had let his eyes linger over the wedding rings displayed in the glass.

It was Monday morning and they sat in their kitchen eating scrambled eggs and bacon. Harry looked across the table to Louis, still trying to grasp the fact the he fell in love with him over again every day - and especially now they were away from their barriers - he fell in love even harder.

Louis was running his foot up and down Harry's leg under the table, in a teasing manner. But it was peaceful. Tranquil. Beautiful.

Louis felt he could cry, just knowing he had Harry to himself and that there was no paparazzi around to mock them or management to verbally abuse them.

They remained inactive on social media, but had tweeted the fans a code message before they got here. Harry knew his fans and knew that they picked up on each little hint. He had contacted a hacker to hack his lyric page to read where he disappeared to and why.

He had tweeted:

@ Harry_styles - Go check out the lyrics for Kiwi, they're finally up ;) 98.kiwi/harry-styL3s366&?lyrics

And of course the fans got it, news spread but like he had asked, the fans amazingly contained it from blowing up to Management or media. He was always so appreciative of them.

Louis and Harry were spending today out in the garden, by the little pond. Harry read his book and Louis wrote songs for his new album, all the while they still held hands.

"I think we should get a cat." Harry piped up out of nowhere.

Louis looked to him, dropping the notebook and biro onto the grass. He grinned.

They then proceeded to race into the house and to the computer room, where they went onto the first adoption site for animals.
