Lottie's Brother (larry au)

7

Harry had just arrived at Lottie's house. His mom waved him off with a kiss on his cheek and begged him to behave.

He knocked on the big brown door which was almost immediately then opened by Lottie. She pushed him back outside and closed the door behind her.

"Hi babes! Louis and I have to go grocery shopping, so that means you've got to come as well." She says to him after hugging him and he nods before they're getting inside Louis's car.

"Where is he?" Harry asks as they wait for Louis in his car.

"He's getting the list of things my mom wants written down so he doesn't forget it. We can also grab some snacks just for our sleepover." She then gasps and quickly scoots away quickly from Harry to look at him.

"Why are you sitting back here with me? Go sit in the front we can't miss this opportunity!" She practically pushes Harry out of Louis's car and Harry ends up sitting in the front passenger seat.

Louis walks out of the house in a soft blue jumper and loose black joggers. His hair was flat against his forehead Harry was not feeling anything and no he didn't think Louis was the most beautiful boy in the world. Harry, of course, knew he was lying to himself.

"Hey Harry! When did you get here?" Louis asks obviously surprised to see Harry in his car.

"A couple of minutes ago." Lottie answers for him and he just nods, he didn't think he could find his voice right now anyway. He was feeling a bit overwhelmed with how soft Louis looked right now.

"Well, I hope you don't mind doing a bit of grocery shopping with us."

They reached the grocery store and we're currently stuck in the cereal aisle. Lottie and Louis we're fighting over which cereal was better, as Harry just listened in and laughed at how much the two we're alike.

Harry looked down the aisle as someone walked into it. It was Daniel who walked in at the end of the aisle pushing along a cart of food he needed to stock. Harry didn't know Daniel worked here, and he didn't know if he should hide and run but Daniel was already waving at him.

Lottie and Louis didn't even notice still caught up in choosing which cereal everyone would like.

Daniel was in a red polo shirt his name tag reading Daniel. Harry waved back but Daniel waved him over and he internally cringed. He starts walking towards him and Daniel got closer and they met halfway.

"Hey Harry, I didn't expect to see you here." Daniel beams like if seeing Harry was the highlight of his entire day.

Lottie and Louis finally notice Harry had left and look around to see him talking to Daniel in the middle of the aisle.

"Yeah, I don't really come to this grocery store but I came here with Lottie and Louis." He explains himself hoping Daniel didn't think Harry came to the store to see him.

At the mention of Louis, Daniel looks over at the siblings who were staring at them. He nods his head at Louis's in the way that guys do. Louis sends it back and maybe Harry is wrong but it looked intimidating.

"Well I should probably get back to work but I really had fun yesterday, we should do it again like sometime soon, which reminds me I never got your number?" Harry blushes because now Lottie and Louis will have to witness Harry giving Daniel his number.

"Oh uh, here give me your phone I'll write it in." Daniel slips his phone out his pocket and hands it over to Harry who quickly writes in his number and his name.

Harry hands Daniel back his phone and Daniel smirks. He suddenly hugs Harry and Harry is a bit speechless because he was not expecting that at all. Harry doesn't hug back not that he even gets the chance to as Daniel pulls away quickly.
