They say opposites attract.

Chapter 28

It was Monday morning and Harry felt like an absolute zombie. After spending the day with Louis yesterday he got back home later than he usually would. He didn't want to leave but eventually Jay and the girls came home and he felt like he was overstepping with the amount of time he stayed there.

Harry let out a long yawn and got up to get ready for school. He really didn't want to go. But the good thing was, after Friday they had a week off. Harry could not wait for that. He was hoping to spend it with Louis. He really was.

After taking longer than usual to get ready for school, Harry started to rush since they were annoying when you weren't on time. He really wasn't in the mood to deal with that so he quickly said goodbye to his mother in the kitchen, grabbed a sandwich and headed to school. He knew driving whilst eating wasn't going to be easy but nonetheless, he took a big bite of his sandwich and got going.

As predicted, he struggled to eat his sandwich and drive simultaneously but he got it done anyway. He had entered the school halls exactly two minutes early and he immediately felt better.

He grabbed his books out of his locker and headed to first period. He took his usual seat next to Liam and yawned once again.

"Where were you all weekend? Didn't hear anything from ya. Maybe I should start getting used to that then?" He knew Liam was being sarcastic but he was sure there was a bit of resentment under there. After all, he really did deserve it. He's been spending his weekends tutoring, studying, partying, hanging out with Louis and he's barely made any time for Liam.

"Liam I'm honestly really sorry, you know what exams do to me and I really do feel bad but we do have a holiday coming up and I promise you I will not leave your side." But Liam only smiled at him reassuringly. He wasn't mad at Harry for being a total ass.

"Hey, don't worry about it." Liam beamed. But there was something about his smile that showed there was more to it than Harry's weak apology..

"Liam what aren't you telling me." Harry questioned, arching his eyebrow. The blush on Liam's face wasn't subtle. He couldn't even suppress his smile.

"Liam!" He whispered, looking at the teacher to make sure she doesn't block their conversation. She was unaware however.

"Fine, fine." Liam gave in, finally meeting Harry's eyes. "Zayn and I..." He trailed off, allowing the smile to conquer his face.

"You and Zayn......." Harry echoed, eager to get Liam to finish his sentence.

'We're official." Liam finished, big smile on his face.

"You're shitting me!" Harry exclaimed, louder than he had intended. Most of the class turned to look at him. The teacher paused mid-sentence but didn't care to halt the lesson on Harry's behalf so she continued on. "When!" He questioned, not as loud.

"Quite recently don't worry." Liam smiled.

"Li! I'm so freaking happy for you!" Harry gave him a side hug with the widest smile on his face. "I'm really sorry I wasn't here for you." He pouted at Liam.

"Don't worry about it for real, I didn't even miss you that much." Liam shrug. Harry swatted him and they smiled at each other. Returning their focus back on class.

Harry was truly happy for Liam. Liam deserved to have someone to treat him the amazing way he treats others and to love him. Harry really wanted to tell Liam about Louis but he didn't even know what to define their relationship as. He also didn't know if Louis wanted a private relationship, a public one or not one at all. Truthfully, Harry would accept anything in which he got to be close to Louis. But he really hoped Louis wouldn't neglect him again. They can't keep going around in circles he was getting nauseous. He just wanted to be with Louis, he was certain of that. He wasn't confused or conflicted in any way. He was sure of what he wanted and he really hoped Louis would reciprocate the interest.
