Louis was stirred away by a pounding on the door. He looked at the arms around him and realized he fell asleep in Harry’s arms. He moved his arms gently trying not to wake him.  Louis saw that he was in checkered pajama pants and no shirt. Harry was just in boxers. Louis went to answer the door. “Zayn?” Louis said.

“Yeah, hi. Thanks for texting me back. I said we had to talk.” Zayn started to walk to the living room, but Louis stopped him.

“Let’s go talk outside. I just woke up so fresh air would be nice.”

“I can tell. Your hair is a mess.” Zayn laughed and turned. Louis’ eyes got wide and he tried to fix his hair. He followed Zayn outside and they sat on the steps of the porch. “So what’s going on with you Lou? You are always disappearing.”

“Uhm, I go for a walk everyday after I eat lunch.”

“Really? With who?”

“No one. It’s just me.”

“You should probably stop lying. You aren’t doing a very good job. Plus once you leave the room so does Harry. When you are missing he is too. What’s going on?”

“Nothing Zayn.

“So now you lie to your best friend?”

“He is only doing it because I asked him to keep it a secret. I don’t want there to be a problem between you two, so you can tell him.” Harry said behind them. They both turned around and saw Harry standing in the doorway. “Hello Zayn.”

“Harry.” Zayn nodded in his direction. “So are you two dating?”

“Depends, who are you going to tell?” Louis asked

“No one Lou, I was going to tell Kelsey and Milan, but I can tell this is something that needs to be kept secret. So I won’t mention a thing.”

“Thank you Zayn.” Louis said and gave him a hug. He hopped up and looked at them. “I’m going to make some tea. Be right back.” He said with a smile.

“Thank you Zay-“

“I’m going to stop you there Harry. I swear to god if you hurt him you will regret everything you’ve ever done!” Zayns voice was low. “He is fragile and I’m serious, you hurt him I hurt you. Understand?”

“Zayn, I’m not going to hurt him. Can I tell you something?” Zayn looked at him with an open mind. “I think I am falling in love with him.”

“Wha- does he know?”

“No, and please don’t tell him. I don’t want him to know and then not feel the same way. I never want to lose him Zayn.”

“I won’t tell him, but I was definitely not expecting all of this.” Zayn laughed and they both walked inside. Louis walked back in with three glasses of tea. He sat down next to Harry and cuddled up next to him.

“So how are you and Milan?” Louis asked

“Good, great actually. I couldn’t be happier.” Zayn said with a smile

“So you finally found her. The girl who captured your heart.”

“Yeah, I did.”

“I can tell. You have a smile on your face constantly. It’s great to see you happy.”

“I have the say the same for you too Lou. Even before I knew about this you could tell you were happier. I’m happy for both of you, but I guess you don’t hide it very well because Tom and Milan both suspect you two are together.”

“Oh well I guess we should be more careful.”

“Nah, I’m fine with it. If they suspect it let them.” Harry leaned over and kissed Louis. Harry’s phone rang. “Hello?” Louis could tell by the voice it was Niall. “Yeah. I will be home here in a few minutes. Yeah I ditched the last half of school. He did? I didn’t know that. Kay, be home soon.”

“What’d he say?” Louis asked

“He was talking about how you ditched the last half of school too.” Harry laughed. Zayn picked up his phone and walked out of the room. Louis assumed it was Milan.

“They are so cute together.” Louis said

“I haven’t really seen them. When I look over there I get stuck staring at you. Since today is Friday I think we should do something.”

“Like what.”

“I’ve got some idea’s.” Harry smiled and stood up. “Take me by my house real quick?” Louis nodded and drove Harry home. “Mom! I am staying with a friend tonight. Be home some time! Love you.” Harry yelled as he grabbed some clothes. Louis was more interested in watching Harry than picking up his phone. “Your phone is ringing babe.”

“Oh, yeah.” Louis picked it up and saw it was just a text from Zayn.

Date tonight!!! Super excited!! Ahhh ;)x

“Him and those x’s” Louis laughed. Harry walked up to him and wrapped his arm around his waist to pull him closer. He grabbed the phone out of his pocket and smiled.

“You’re mine tonight Tommo. All mine.”

“I’m okay with that.” Louis laughed and kissed him quickly. They heard a noise behind them.

“Is this your friend?” Anne asked

“Uhm, mom hi. This is Louis.”

“Hello Louis. Well, I see you guys are pretty close. Stay safe.” Anne laughed. Harry put his face in his hands.

“Oh my god mom. Please stop.”

“It’s not like I’m shocked. I knew you were gay for a while now.”

“Wait what?”

“Love you Harry. Have fun.” She kissed his forehead. “Nice to meet you Louis.”

“Nice to meet you too ma’am.” She smiled and walked away. Louis looked over at Harry whose face was beat red. Louis started laughing and fell on the bed.

“Oh my god.” Harry said into his hands. “Please tell me that did not just happen.”

“Hey, at least she didn’t freak out.” Louis said still laughing.

“It’s not funny!” Harry said throwing a pillow at Louis. Louis threw it back then Harry grabbed his arm and pulled him on top of him. “Even though you laugh at me, you’re amazing Tommo.”

“You’re amazing too Hazza.” Louis smiled and kissed him.

“Hazza?”

“I like it. You are my Hazza.” Louis kissed him again and felt Harry smile under the kiss. Louis smiled back and the lay there for a couple minutes just kissing.
