Fighting For Love

Chapter 8

Harry's POV

I'm still upset after last night when Lou left. I know he has to do it for us, but whenever it's good for management it has to be good for us.. I hate it. I woke up next to an empty bed next to me. It's only 1:30am but I wish he was back by now.

I could still hear the tv on downstairs, so I decided to go down to the kitchen and make a cup of tea, maybe that will make me fall asleep.. I wander down the hall and into the kitchen, flicking the kettle on and grabbed a mug out of the cupboard.

"Can I have one too?" I heard a deep sleepy voice say. I turned around a little stunned that I didn't hear him come up behind me. "Sure" I replied giving zayn a smile. "Are you ok Harry?" Zayn asked with a little worry in his face, "yeah.. I'm fine.." Zayn looked me straight in the eyes and asked again "Are you okay Harry? " I paused before replying "no.. How can I be?" "This about this whole Louis and Eleanor going out on dates thing?"

I grunted and continued making the tea. "Do you wanna like talk about it" He asked staring at me intensely. I looked down at the mugs on the bench. Maybe I did want to talk? Maybe I didn't? "I don't even know anymore" I replied, more to myself then to him. "Why can't things go back to how they were zayn, to when we were all happy and-" I burst into tears. "It's alright Harry, things will get better. I promise." I sighed and looked up at Zayn, "Thank you Zayn" I said before I heard the front door open quietly.

Louis POV

I arrived home at around 2:00am and as I parked the car I could see the lights on inside. It was unusual for anyone to be awake at this time, Harry usually was in bed, sometimes fast asleep or on his phone on twitter looking through his mentions. I know he felt lonely when I wasn't there and I felt guilty for having to leave him all of a sudden when we were having a quiet night together. I crept inside noticing that the kitchen light was on, how odd? Then I noticed Harry was up and sitting at the bench having a cup of tea with someone. What? I thought, confused on why he would be up. This distracted me enough to let go of the door behind me, making it slam with a thud. The two figures, which I now recognised as Harry and Zayn, sat up in fright at the sudden disturbance.

"Ahhhh how are you going lads" I mumbled sheepishly, obviously walking in on some kind of heart to heart talk they were having. Harry big green eyes met mine, I realised they were watering. As for Zayn, he was staring me down as if I had murdered his family.

"What's going on?" I asked. They quickly looked at eachother before Harry shook his head. "Is there something I've missed" I said, raising my eyebrows at the boys strange antics."I was just going to bed" Harry managed to stutter. With a broken look on his face he moped up the stairs, "Goodnight" he called as he reached the top.

"Zayn?" I questioned the other boy. "I was just leav-"

I cut him off "I would like a word"

"Look Lou, you and harry need to talk, this whole thing with you and Eleanor and management is getting to him.. He misses you." Zayn said to me with a sad look.

"Me and Harry Zayn, me and Harry. It's none of your business what we go through!" I began to yell.

"But Louis your my bests mates why wouldn't it be my business!"

"Just stay out of it okay"

"NO LOUIS DID YOU SEE HIM! HE'S BREAKING!" I noticed he was yelling.

Zayn never yells.

"WELL I'M BREAKING TOO ZAYN!!"

"HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF ANYONE BUT YOURSELF LOUIS!!" He screamed, I've never seen him this mad before.

"REALLY ZAYN! YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO SAY THAT! IM DATING THAT ELEANOR GIRL SO WE DONT GET DROPPED ALRIGHT! I'M NOT DOING THIS FOR ME! I'M DOING THIS FOR YOU, LIAM, NIALL AND HARRY AND MY PARENTS AND MY SISTERS AND THE FANS!" I yelled.

He took a step back.

"I'm sorry" he whispered. "I didn't realise."

"Yeah it seems like no one ever does" I mumbled.

We stood in silence for a while still stunned about the fight we just had.

We have never fought like this before.

"I'm sorry too" I said. "I shouldn't have yelled or anything, I just" I began

"I know, I understand now" he replied "let's just put this behind us, no hard feelings right" he said stretching out his hand. "No hard feelings" I said with a smile, shaking his hand firmly.

With that Zayn went over to where Liam and Niall were sleeping on the couches, somehow, after that huge ruckus we made. He woke them up and they all said their goodbyes in tired voices. "Wait... Stay here guys. It's past 2am and you need your sleep. Go upstairs into the guest room." They all gave me a small smile and walked upstairs.
