*1 Week Later*
Harry lays on his sofa alone, reminiscing about old times as he was binge watching old Sidemen videos. Beer cans lie on the floor and pizza boxes stacked up like a sculpture in the corner of the kitchen, about to topple over. Suddenly, his phone rang loudly from the kitchen side. Harry sighed and got up from the sofa to answer the call. Shuffling over to the kitchen counter, he picked up the call.
"Where in the fuck are you?" Ethan's voice boomed down the phone, blatantly furious.
"What do you mean? I'm at home." Harry replied with a confused expression on his face, jumping up to sit on the counter.
"Precisely! It's Wednesday you dick! We film videos on Wednesday, remember?" Ethan answered, his tone getting increasingly angrier. "We're all waiting for you!"
"Oh shit!" Harry replied, jumping off the side and grabbing his bag and keys before rushing out the door, locking it behind him. "I'm coming now boys, I'll be about 30 minutes."
"Hurry the fuck up then." Ethan replied, ending the call in a furious manner.
Harry jumped into his car and sped out of the car park, fastening his belt as he drove. 50 minutes later... Harry arrived at the Sidemen house and rushed to the front door, knocking on it vigorously. An angry Ethan answered the door, eyes like daggers.
"Evening, nice of you to show up lazy arse." Ethan commented, pulling Harry through the door and slamming it behind him.
Harry walked through into the garden, hanging his head in shame as he was met with jeers and abuse from the lads. JJ ran towards him, chasing him round the garden and threatening to beat the shit out of him the next time he's late. Eventually, JJ settled and they began to film the video.
"Welcome to Sidemen Olympics!" Vik shouted, introducing the video.
Harry stood in front of Simon, who grabbed his ass as the boys split teams. Harry and Simon exchanged a cheeky look as they stared at each other across the garden. The boys filmed for hours on end, taking up the morning and early afternoon. All the time whilst filming, Harry couldn't stop thinking about Simon. He wanted him again. Eventually, at about 1:30pm, the boys finished filming. Once again, the boys packed up and headed inside, dumping the camera equipment next to the back door. All the boys stood around the kitchen counter, discussing potential video ideas with Josh noting them down carefully. Simon looked over at Harry and smiled from across the counter. Harry smiled back but Josh caught him, looking up at Simon and smirking. Harry exchanged a confused look with Simon who winked and nudged Josh cheekily. The other boys were too occupied on roasting Ethan to notice. Breaking the noise, Josh looked up and announced that he'd have enough ideas for now and that the boys will meet again next week.
"Yeah if Harry's up!" Tobi commented, laughing as he joked.
The boys scattered into different rooms of the house, leaving Josh and Simon in the kitchen.
"He doesn't know I told you." Simon said, grabbing a glass from the cupboard and filling it with water.
"I know. I saw you both smiling at each other. You can't help yourselves!" Josh replied, sitting on a stool at the counter.
"I know. I just really like him though." Simon said, sipping his water and looking up at Josh.
"Tell him. Show him how you feel, that's your best bet. I'm sure he likes you too." Josh looked reassuring as he spoke to Simon. He was always best for giving advice, and was always the best person to turn to.
"I don't know... I'll just wait an see for when the time is right." Simon replied.
"Good idea. Anyway, I'm going upstairs, see ya later bro!" Simon nodded at him as he drank from the glass as Josh stood up from the counter and headed up to his room where Harry was already sat at his PC, playing Fortnite.
"Alright Bog?" Josh asked, sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Yeah, fine." Harry partially answered as his fingers frantically pressed the keyboard.
Simon went to his room and closed the door, struggling to think about what to do. He sat in his chair slumped, as he set a video to upload onto his gaming channel.
"Oi! We're going out to Nando's, you coming?" JJ's voice echoed through the house, as Simon jumped up in his chair.
"Nah!" Josh and Harry answered simultaneously.
"What about you Si?" JJ asked, opening his bedroom door.
"No thanks Jide, I've just eaten."
"You sure?" JJ asked.
"Yeah yeah I'm fine, honestly."
"Okay, suit yourself." JJ said in a high pitched voice before running down the stairs to leave. Ethan, Tobi, Vik, Kon and Charlie all filtered out the door. With enormous volume, JJ screamed "BYE!" before slamming the front door, rattling the whole house. Simon sighed, still confused about what Josh had said earlier. Getting up from his chair, he walked over to his bed and flopped onto it, lying down for a nap.
