chapter 24

Harry POV

"Good morning love", I whisper to Louis, who is still sleeping.

I carefully get his head off my chest and get out of the bed.

"Come back to bed baby", he mutters, his eyes still closed. "Five more minutes", I agree and I snuggle up to his chest.

"Hi love", I whisper and plant a kiss on his nose. His forehead touches mine, "Morning breath love", he mumbles, I crack a smile. "I know, sorry". I get out of the bed once again and pull the covers off Louis.

"Come on, we got to go to school", he groans. "I don't want to."

-

"Morning", I mumble as I walk in the kitchen, Louis right behind me and his hand in mine.

My mum doesn't even look up, she grabs her plate and walks out of the room.

"Hi Gem", I say while making toast for me and Louis.

"Hey boys, did you sleep well?", Gemma looks at Louis and I smile. I love that they get along so well.

"Yeah I slept well, thank you again. For everything", Gemma pulls him in a hug, "Group hug", I whisper as I join their hug.

"You can always count on me. I do support you", she whispers. "Thanks Gemma", Louis and I say at the same time.

-

"Hey. How did it go?", Liam asks when I sit down in the cafeteria.

"Bad", Louis sits down, "Yeah", I agree. "They took it badly. They both yelled at us. My stepdad yelled at me too when I came back home and my dad sent me a text. He basically disowned me", tears rise in my eyes.

"He did? Why didn't you tell me?", Louis takes my hand and I shrug, "I'm sorry", a tear leaves my eye and rolls down my cheek, he wipes the tear away and wraps his arms around me. "Shh, don't cry love. It's alright".

When we pull away I see there are a few tears in his eyes too, I press a kiss on his cheeks and smile softly.

Just as Liam's about to answer, Zayn and Niall sit down. They look worried when they see the tears in our eyes.

"It didn't go well, did it?", Niall asks, looking at us with a sad smile. I shake my head and stare at my lap to not start crying again.

"I'm sorry, I really am", Liam comments with a sad look on his face, Niall and Zayn nod in agreement. "I'm sorry", "You deserve much better", they add.

"Thanks lads" I nod. "We can get through this, we'll deal, we're strong together", Louis says and I smile at him. "Yeah, we'll be fine", I say and squeeze his hand tightly.

"You guys are adorable", Niall coos.

"Yes! I ship Larry", Liam adds. Louis giggles, "Not you guys too".

I laugh, "Lottie and Fizzy call us Larry at least ten times when we're together", I explain and they burst out in laughter. "I'm sorry but that's hilarious", Zayn laughs, "Larry. I ship it".

"TOOT, TOOT", Niall yells and we laugh even harder.

God, I don't know what I'd do without these lads. They always support me no matter what and they make me laugh.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if Liam and Zayn stayed those 'bad boys', would they have bullied me and Louis for being together?

What would have happened if Niall wasn't bi? Would he still be friends with Zayn and Liam's old friends? Would he be a bad boy? Would he bully me? Or Louis?

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like, but then I also realize that I wouldn't want it any other way, because those lads are my best friends, I forgave them.

They made mistakes but haven't we all? They deserved a second chance and they made it worth it. I'm glad I gave them another chance and I'm glad I can call them my best friends.

I'm glad they accept me and I'm glad they're here for me. They're great friends, they're great people.

This is short and it sucks, I'm sorry. The next chapter is the introduction to a new ship :)

Btw, I'm listening to Niall saying "You two are so cute" on repeat for 10 minutes haha.

Much love, M.
