Harry watched Aiden stumble and walk away. They’d been best friends for five years, and now, this was how he treated him. It was probably just a starter for what the rest of the school would say. Should he even go into school today? He really didn’t want to now, he couldn’t put up with people he thought that he had befriended now turning their backs on him as if he was something to just get bored of. His mind kept going all of the harsh words that Aiden had said, and before he knew it, he had worked himself up into a completely paranoid and emotional wreck. Harry was shaking, as he looked back at Louis. Lou looked as if he could see right into Harry’s thoughts, and Harry was quickly pulled into another tight hug. He buried his head into Louis’ shoulder and held him tightly, not wanting to let go. He didn’t want people treating him like shit…
“You alright, Hayley?” Zayn asked, as he looked down at his girlfriend. She nodded and smiled, before flexing her wrist.
“My wrist kind of stings…but Aiden deserved it.” She replied, before Zayn took her hand in his and then kissed it, before kissing her forehead. Harry broke off the hug and looked at Hayley in confusion.
“Haz?” Lou asked quietly, before Harry interrupted him.
“Why’d you do that?” Harry asked quickly. Hayley and Zayn turned around and looked at him as if he was crazy or something.
“Huh?” Zayn asked. Harry was confused. Why did they both just jump in like that?
“Why didn’t you just let him punch me? Surely I deserve it, I treated you like that for the past five years, Hayley, why didn’t you just get your mobile out and watch as I got my karma? I don’t get it-” Harry rambled on, looking at Hayley for answers.
“Harry,” Louis tried again, grabbing onto his arm.
“Harry.” Hayley finally spoke, before pulling out her now, slightly messy ponytail and redoing it at the top of her head.
“I punched Aiden, because of a couple of reasons. 1, there is nothing wrong with being gay. The only thing that’s wrong about being gay or bi is being discriminated against it. 2, Aiden got what was fucking coming to him, and 3, you’re my friend, you deserve a second chance, and I’m not going to sit by and watch a scummy piece of shit like Aiden treat my boys like shit.” Hayley poured out back to him, before she walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into a tight hug. Harry was reeling slightly from her answer, but hugged her anyway. This time last week on Monday morning, he was breaking her folder in half, and now a week on, so much had happened, and now here they both were, hugging each other like there was no tomorrow. Just one week.
“Thank you…thank you…” Was all Harry could whisper, as he hugged onto the girl who had just saved his arse.
“Just ignore people like that Harry, stay with us.” She whispered in his ear, before breaking off the hug, and taking the schoolbag that Zayn was holding for her. Louis took Harry’s hand and smiled.
“Come on, it’s going to be okay babe.” Louis smiled, before placing a soft, quick kiss on Harry’s lips, before pulling him along towards the school.
“See, when it comes to matchmaking, I’m great.” Hayley giggled, as they all started walking towards school. Louis and Harry smiled and blushed as they looked at each other.
“So, you got them both together, how does that make you Cupid all of a sudden?” Zayn asked, as his arm was wrapped around her waist.
“Oh please, I just created Larry Stylinson, your argument is irrelevant.” She laughed, looking up at him.
“Larry who?” Louis asked, looking at her in confusion. She laughed as she looked at them.
“It’s your combined name. Louis, Harry, Larry. Like me and Zayn are…” She looked up at her boyfriend in thought, before Zayn let out a low chuckle.
“We’re Zayley.” He laughed.
“Boom.” She laughed, before they continued their way to the school, on the sunny Monday morning.
