Photographer (Larry) -DISCONTINUED-

Chapter 16

"Lou...Can I ask you something?" Harry asked as we made our way back down the hill and towards the flat field.

"Shoot." I said.

"I know it's been ages now but I've been thinking about it a lot. Those days when we were talking on Twitter and I was being rude, well after a certain message you stopped talking to me. Why?" He wondered.

"Well..." I trailed off. I should tell him, he's my boyfriend now and he has the right to know. "It might sound stupid but when I was in high school I came out and everything was fine. Nobody cared they just saw me as the same old Louis. Then a senior started talking to me and soon enough we were dating. But he was older and he thought that I was immature, nothing I did was right and he used to call me names all the time. I didn't care at first, I just thought it was his way of trying to make me more mature. But when you hear the same thing over and over again every single day there comes a time when you start to believe it. He used to say 'I can't believe I'm actually dating such a loser' and loser was the word that I could never forget. It might be the most stupid thing to call someone but sometimes even the smallest words can impact someone." I said and Harry squeezed my hand.

"After a few months I finally broke up with him. I couldn't handle the verbal abuse anymore. My self esteem was gone and I practically hated myself. I thought that everything I did was wrong and my grades started to drop but I didn't even care. All I did care about was photography. And then Zayn somehow came in to my life and helped me and that's why he's like a brother to me." I shrugged at the end, making it out to being unimportant.

"I'm so sorry Louis." Harry apologized but I shook my head.

"Don't be. It's over now and look where I am. I'm doing the thing I love and I have an incredible yet dorky boyfriend." I teased.

"You had me up to dorky." He grinned and I couldn't help but giggle. 

We finally reached the limo and got in as the drive to my flat begun. I sat snuggled into Harry's side as he whispered bad pick up lines down my ear making me laugh.

"What's on the menu?" He chuckled.

"Um...food?" I questioned, cocking an eyebrow up.

"Nope me n' you." He said smugly and I rolled my eyes.

"You are more cheesy that macaroni and cheese." I said gently poking his nose.

"Says the one who just referenced my pick up line. And anyway you bring the cheesiness out of me." 

"Don't blame me for your horrible pick up lines!" I gasped and he laughed as he pressed his fingers lightly into my side. 

"You're definitely a drama kid." He said, smugness clear in his voice.

"Already tried that. I was so good I made other kids feel bad." I said.

"You're an evil bunny rabbit!" He gasped in fake horror before we both burst out into a fit of laughter. 

Soon enough we reached the flat and Harry once again walked me to the door. I stood in front of it, staring at him with a grin. I slowly leaned up and pressed a chaste kiss against his lips.

"I'll see you soon boyfriend." I said grinning.

"See you soon." He breathed kissing me once more and then walking backwards until he reached the lift. 

"Guess who has a boyfriend! Liam you officially have no chance with me babe!" I hollered as I entered the apartment. 

"I am not gay!" Liam huffed.

"Hold up...you and Harry are dating?" Zayn asked and I nodded eagerly as I sat on the couch between Liam and Zayn.

"Love is in the air." I exclaimed motioning to the space around us. 

"So you asked Harry?" Liam wondered and I shook my head.

"No, he did. Well... he tried. He was so nervous, he was stuttering and didn't even manage to get the word boyfriend out." I chuckled.

"We let you leave for a few hours and you come back with a boyfriend?" Zayn said in a frightfully monotone voice.

"We're so proud!" They both yelled in sync as they threw themselves on top of me, hugging the death out of me.

We all laughed as they finally let go and I couldn't stop smiling. I glanced at Zayn and he sent me an approving nodd, a small smile playing on his lips. I sent him a grin back because I knew then that Zayn approved of our relationship and Harry himself.

A/N: All the single ladies, all the single ladies! Now put your hands up! *raises both hands* This chapter was brought to you by ice cream because that's what I was eating whilst writing this! Well....enough with my randomness! So what I want to say is that maybe Louis' story sounds silly and stupid but sometimes even the smallest words can hurt someone. And that's something everyone should always remember. I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter! I'm going to bed >.< Goodnight!!
