Just Silly Kids (Larry Stylinson)

29. Fire and Sit-ups

A/N: I'm sorry. The last two chapters are very short. But I've included everything into this story that I wanted and I hope you enjoy them either way.

In the middle of the night, Harry suddenly sat up. A loud, obnoxious noise sounded through the whole room. Harry looked at Louis, who was also sitting up next to him, then at the other boys. They all looked at each other, until suddenly Liam stood up. “That´s the fire alarm. Come on, we have to get out of here.”

The other boys complied, hurrying out of their room in pyjamas. “Where is Niall?” Louis asked. The boys checked in the room again, but Niall was not in his bed, also not anywhere else in the room. They decided he must have gone outside already. In the hallways, the other boys flocked out of their rooms and out of the building. They met all the other students, teachers and social workers outside on the football field. Everyone was looking around confusedly since nobody really knew what was going on.

Soon after, the fire fighters came with loud sirens. Once they arrived though, they were just as confused as the school inhabitants were. The headmaster strode up to them and discussed something.

“Was that a false alarm?” Harry asked. “Is my dad in trouble now?”

“I don´t know.” Louis wrapped his arm around Harry´s waist. “But it wouldn´t be his fault if someone started the fire alarm on purpose.”

“Maybe it wasn´t on purpose.” Liam yawned.

Liam turned out to be right. Niall and Haley came running out of the building that contained the kitchen. Apparently, they were having some kind of in-the-middle-of-the-night-date. Harry bet it had been Niall´s idea to look for some food.

After talking to the firefighters and headmaster Styles, Niall returned to his room mates, looking defeated. “What happened, Ni?” Harry asked.

“We were just trying to cook.” Niall said miserably. “But this kitchen is more complex than normal kitchens. We managed to put out the fire, but... The alarm went already off. My dad will kill me.”

“What is my father making you do as punishment?” Harry asked worriedly.

“Umm... We´re suspended for two weeks. And our parents have be be informed and probably pay for the fire fighters coming.” Niall said. “I hope it´s not enough reason for my father to send me to a military school.” He shuddered.

“I´ll talk to my dad.” Harry said. “Maybe we can find a solution without your dad. Or maybe my dad can talk to him. Tell him how important you are for this school or something.”

“Thanks, Harry.” Niall said.

“And don´t do it again.” Louis said. “I don´t appreciate being awoken in the middle of the night. I was just dreaming about...” Louis´ gaze suddenly cleared and he blushed, “It´s none of your business what I dream about.”

“Probably something dirty about Harry.” Zayn grumbled. Niall and Liam laughed as Louis and Harry blushed.

,´,´,´,´,´,´,´,´,´,´,

The first thing Niall heard as he slowly drifted into consciousness the next morning was heavy breathing. Alarmed, Niall looked down at the single bed, but Louis and Harry were cuddling perfectly innocently. Louis seemed to also hear what Niall perceived because he opened his eyes, looking horrified, and sat up. Because of Louis´ jostling, Harry also sat up and they both looked down to the end of their bed. Niall also looked and sighed in relief.

On a red mat on the floor was Liam. “Uhh... what are you doing?” Louis asked.

“Sit ups.” Liam panted, sweat dripping down from his temple.

“We can see that.” Louis said. “But why?”

“Doing sports is healthy.” Liam said.

“But not so early in the morning.” Louis groaned, letting himself fall back into his bed.

“Where does this sudden motivation come from?” Harry asked.

“Gosh. You´re voice is sexy in the morning.” Louis groaned.

“Eww...” Niall said. “Honestly, Li. Where does this motivation come from?”

Liam stood up from his sit-up position and settled into a push up one. “Maybe Cheryl will like me better...” He said before making his first push up.

Louis slapped Harry. “Stop staring at his biceps.” Harry giggled and buried his face in Louis´ chest.

“Liam...” Niall said. “You shouldn´t change just for a girl to like you. If she doesn´t like you like you are, then she´s not worth it.”

“Yeah.” Liam said and laid on his stomach, letting his muscles relax. “But it is really healthy. I read about it. And if she´s my motivation to get healthier, I don´t see what´s wrong with it.”

“Still...” Niall said.

“Louis...” Harry said. “Why don´t you make sit ups for me to like you better?”

“Oh, come on.” Louis said. “You already love me. And my six pack.”

“What six pack?” Harry asked.

“Heeyy.” Louis frowned, pushing Harry away.

Harry laughed, then stretched out his hands for his boyfriend. “Come here.” Louis looked defiant for a few seconds, but then Harry started pouting and Louis could not resist. He settled over Harry and kissed him softly.

“Eww...” Niall said. “Please don´t make out now while we´re in the room.”

“I absolutely agree.” A voice grumbled from under Zayn´s blanket. Then, he was dead to the world again. He had always been the one to sleep the longest and not let himself disturbed by anything.

Harry and Louis laughed, rubbing their noses together. “I love you.” Louis whispered like it was a secret.

“I love you too.”
