"Congratulations Harry, you've got four yeses."

This one sentence was enough to flip Harry's world upside down. He couldn't believe he got through. He remembered the glint in Louis' eyes when he told him yes. He seemed so proud of him that Harry had wanted nothing more than to run over to him and pull him into a bone crushing hug.

He remembered how proud his mom and Gemma looked. He was pulled between the two of them as they squeezed the living light out of him. He didn't mind though. He was just as excited. If not, more.

It scared Harry how often he kept thinking about him even though he barely knew anything about the lad. It was like Louis filled this void space in his heart. He struggled to get him off his mind and just then, he knew he was screwed. He couldn't just start liking him. Louis was a huge celebrity for God's sake. He could have anyone he wanted, why would he go for him? Plus, Harry wasn't even sure if Louis swung that way.

Harry's POV

(A/N: I have no idea how bootcamp works ik im stupid but shh)
I apparently had to dance for this bootcamp they were talking about. Everything seemed so surreal. Everything was going perfect until I knew I had to dance. I couldn't dance for my life. I was horrible but I knew I had to do it. I've been practicing this dance for a while and I thought I might as well give it a shot.

I only managed to see Louis a couple times. We made eye contact but neither of us made a move to talk to the other. Mostly because we're always busy. He's always in a rush and I'm always practicing which kinda sucked but I learned how to suck it up and deal with it.

We were placed backstage until we had to get on and quite frankly, my nerves were getting the best of me. My legs were shaking and I felt light headed. I couldn't do it. But I have to. And I will.

We were then ushered on stage and everyone took their places and got into position. I couldn't look up into Louis' eyes but I felt his eyes burning holes in my head. I wiped my sweaty palms onto my jeans and took in a deep breath. The music started playing though I kept my head facing the ground, my eyes focusing on my shoes. I felt paralyzed. I couldn't move. Everyone around me started dancing and I couldn't take one step forward.

I felt a couple tears rush to my eyes and that's all it took for me to bolt out. I ran off stage and rushed down the couple steps, sitting down on one of the chairs where I finally let the tears fall. I covered my face with my hands and kept shaking my head. This couldn't be happening. I just ruined my only chance in achieving my dream. Not only that, but I just embarrassed myself in front of Louis. I was so ashamed of myself that I started crying even harder.

I snapped my head up when I heard someone clear their throat.

"Louis?" I asked in confusion. My voice was a bit hoarse from the lump forming in my throat but that was the least of my worries right now.

Louis is standing right in front of me while I'm crying. How pathetic. I quickly wiped the tears off my face and looked away to avoid him seeing my bloodshot eyes and red nose but we both knew it was too late.

"What happened back there?" He asked me softly as he walked forward and took a seat next to me. He gently placed his hand on my knee which made me tense up a little. Thankfully though, he didn't notice.
