Never Ending | LARRY

Nineteen

Louis stares outside the tinted window as it rolls up to the place the ball is being held. He bites his lip unsure. He knows he won't fit in, he will be the only human there. Only known as Harry's assistant. Would it be wrong to ask to wait in the car?

Probably...

Louis sighed, he didn't want to disappoint Harry. Suddenly they are pulling up at a huge house, a large garden with pretty red roses, huge blue fountain and a circle drive way coming into his eye-view. 

"Wowww." Louis mumbles.

Harry stares at him fondly, "amazing right?"

The two lock eyes, staring for a second too long before Louis nods.

"Come on... let's go inside. I know you are nervous cub. Don't be, I'm here." Harry let's his hand fall to Louis' leg gently for a moment.

The boy's breath hitches before he nods letting Harry guide him inside.

----

"Niall! What are you doing here! In Paris!" Louis gasps, hugging his blonde co-worker. The fertile vampire laughs patting his back.

Louis smiled as they stood in the corner of the ball room. Harry and Niall shook hands. Louis was glad he knew somebody, Niall after all was one of his only friends in the workplace.

"Harry invited me, said it would be good for me to chat and get some connections." 

Harry smirked as he nudged the small human, "he is very good at that... talking that is."

Louis giggled, Niall watched as Harry's eyes lit up. He was proud for making his little mate laugh. The CEO could not be more obvious.

"Come, we should take Louis to meet your family right Harry?"

The dom vampire's eyes widened.

"Harry? You never said your family would be here." Louis looked at the man confusedly.

The curly haired man bit his lip mumbling out, "oh Niall.. that, that's not neces-"

Before Harry could finish Niall was linking arms with Louis and interrupting, "oh look there Gemma its now. Come on Lou."

Harry watched as his small little mate was dragged away towards his sister, he had to groan, "fuck."

----

"Oh Ni! Heyyy it's been so long, since my baby shower right?" 

Louis watches as the blonde and the pretty girl in front, a fertile catch up before suddenly Niall is tugging him foward slightly.

"Gemma, I don't think you two have met? This is your lovely brother's assistant... Louis."

The girl looks him up and down briefly before a kind smile makes its way onto his face, "oh yes. Louis... I have heard lots about you."

Louis bites his lip staring up at Niall who just smiles.

"Um, hi?"

Gemma smiles at the cute boy, she can't help but feel so happy for her brother. If only it was more acceptable for Harry to be happy. Gemma doesn't have an issue, she just hopes this tiny caramel haired boy isn't ever put in danger.

Not a second later Harry is walking up to the group and making himself welcome.

"I hope you three aren't talking smack about me behind my back now."

Louis smiles where Gemma and Niall roll there eyes. 

"Oh only how you have an upside down penis nose."  Harry rolls his eyes at his sisters rude comment.

"Nice to see you too gems."

Harry's eyes widened as the girl Louis thought was his mate walked up to him, interrupting their conversation.

"Mr Stylllles. Hello." 

Harry bit his lip, eyes moving between a confused Gemma and Niall to an upset Louis. 

"Oh Lia... how uh lovely to see you, is the boss around?"

"No not today." Harry wanted to cringe as she winked, "hotel room is all mine.."

Louis pouted at the scene in front of him, that was Harry's future mate. Of course they were flirting. He felt tears fill his eyes.

Stop being a baby. You have no right to be upset.

Louis watched as Harry and her continued to chat, Gemma and Niall leaving, something about meeting with Liam. Louis wanted desperately for them to take him with him, instead he was stuck, a foot under both her and Harry as he stared up at their faces.

He felt hurt, rejected.

And that was probably the thing that got to him the most. He had absolutely no right to feel hurt or rejected; it was his own fault for letting himself feel the way he did.

Harry wasn't his....

"How about you and I meet at the end of the night, I have to talk to some people. But I would love to see you later."

Harry ground his teeth together, "oh um sure Lia... that sounds good."

The girl winked, rubbing her hand down his arm before walking away, ass moving from right to left. Finally she retreated leaving Louis and Harry standing next to one another alone. There was an awkward silence before the vampire spoke up.

"So um, how are things working for Styles and Co? Settling in alright?"

Louis plastered on a quick and shallow smile, "fine." His words were quick and emotionless.

Harry was taken aback by his snappiness, "oh. Glad to hear."  Louis nodded, eyes wandering away from Harry as he blinked away tears, the thought of what he had just witnessed in the front of his mind.

With that he was stuttering a poor excuse of an apology, "I um. Think I need a drink. Frog in my throat." He fake caughed, finding it in himself to leave Harry's side, abounding the vampire in favour of the alcoholic rum punch.

Something that wouldn't hurt him.
