"Niall?"

"Harry?"

"Wait wait, you guys know each other?!"

"Um Lou, maybe we should talk. Like in another room," Harry said earning a worried look from Louis.

"Oh okay, let's go upstairs. Sorry Niall, we'll be right back," Louis said and started up the stairs with Harry. "You better explain everything," Louis said as he plopped down onto Harry's bed.

"I knew Niall as a kid, before I moved here to the States. Niall started to work for my dad at a young age," Harry said quietly as he took a seat next to Louis.

"That's impossible Niall works for Desmond when he's in the UK. He's a mob boss," Louis said and all Harry did was nod his head. "Wait, holy shit. Harry, your father is Desmond?"

"Yeah, Desmond Styles. That's his full name," Harry said looking down. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you. Please don't think I'm rat, I haven't spoken to him in years! I swear!" Harry said starting to panic. Louis started to laugh and Harry looked at him with a face full of confusion. "Why are you laughing?"

"Curly, I wouldn't think you're a rat. Desmond is my closest overseas associate. We do business all the time. We're allies. He's mentioned a son, said he missed him. I assumed he had died. But it's you, you're his son."

"Mm yeah. It's complicated you could say. I guess in the eyes of everyone in the UK, I am dead. For my protection. That's why no one knows his last name is Styles, to protect my sister and I," Harry said twiddling his thumbs. "Can I uh, talk about it?" Harry asked shyly.

"Of course love, tell me," Louis said wrapping his arm around his boy.

"My dad had trained me to do medical, hence me knowing how to help you. Maybe that's why I feel so comfortable here and trust you so much, it's like home. But one night we had a break in and my dad decided to send my mom and I to the States. Gemma was already too involved so she stayed. We came when I was 16, my mom remarried. Her new husband never liked me much in the short time I knew him. Cause uh shortly after I met Nick and we know how that story goes," Harry said choking up a bit.

"You're alright, you're alright," Louis reassured.

"On my 18th birthday I got word that my mom and stepdad had been in a car accident, there had been no survivors," Harry said starting to cry. Louis pulled him into a hug and gently rubbed his back.

"Oh darling, I'm so sorry," Louis said and continued to rub his back until he calmed down.

"Anyways, that's that story. Desmond is my dad and Niall-Oh my god Niall! He was my only friend for 16 years! I have to go see him!" Harry said jumping up. "Wait, how do you know Niall?" Harry questioned, plopping back down.

"Alright H, calm down one thing at a time," Louis said playfully. "When Niall doesn't work for you're dad, he comes to the States. He's apart of Sonlinmot. One of our best get away drivers," Louis said proudly. "He's going to be staying with us for awhile but the poor lad is probably proper confused. We just left him down there."

"Come on let's go!" Harry said jumping up, his sad mood from minutes ago seemingly forgotten. The boy ran down the stairs with Louis barely being able to keep up. "NIALL!" He shouted and jumped into the arms of his friend at the bottom of the stairs.

"Hey there bub, I've missed you. I thought I'd never see you again," Niall said struggling to support the boy who had gotten significantly taller since the last time he'd seen him. Once Louis made it to the bottom of the stairs, Harry jumped down and scrambled to his side. "So you two?" Niall said smirking towards Louis.

"No no no-" Harry said only to be cutoff.

"Maybe," Louis said with a shrug and a smirk.

"Right on lad, right on. Probably the only relationship Des would approve of for his boy. I figure Harry told you just now," Niall said with a chuckle.

"Ah yes he did. I also broke the news to him that you'll be here with us for awhile, he was absolutely devastated," Louis joked. Niall and him were close and he'd missed having his friend here.

"Wow Harry I'm shocked, I thought I was your best friend," Niall said playing along.

"What?! No! I was so happy! He's lying, he's a liar!" Harry said pointing his finger at Louis. The two older boys busted up laughing at the younger's reaction, causing him to pout. "You're both mean."

"Awh come on Haz, you love me!" Niall said.

"Haz?" Louis questioned.

"Yes. Haz, Hazza, Frogface. Few of my many nicknames for Harry here," Niall said ruffling Harry's hair.

"NIALL!" Harry scolded, Louis and Niall to bust up laughing again.

The afterparty continued on until 3 am. Louis and Niall were now sat on a couch with Zayn and Liam smoking a joint. Harry had passed out on Louis lap almost an hour ago and was still sound asleep.

"So mate, do tell. What's the deal with Harry? Why is he even here?"

"Long story," Louis said taking a long drag off the joint.

"Louis in love with him," Zayn said and Liam nodded his head.

"Seems that way," Niall said with a smirk. "I've missed a lot, I guess."

"I'm not in love with him," Louis corrected. "I don't know, I'm just fond of the boy. He's been here for like three weeks now, he's cute and he's got a great personality," Louis shrugged.

"And that's Louis for 'I don't care about anyone except one curly headed boy and I'm quickly falling in love with him and I don't know how to act cause I've only ever loved one other person before'" Liam joked but it hit a soft spot for Louis. What he said was 100% accurate. His heart was falling fast. Despite his brain telling him to take it slow.

"I know Harry and he's good Lou. You can trust him, he won't break your heart like... well you know who did," Niall said softly. "Take a chance with him."
