Louis was ecstatic over the news.

Louis was jumping for joy, shouting things about how we would make hot babies. I don't think that's how you label a new born.

"He's so into you!" He screeched.

"No he's not, Lou."

After his mini freak out, things became quiet. The issues clouding over us finally dropping the awkward precipitation.

I wondered what he was thinking, but I couldn't put my finger on it.

After living with Louis for years now, it became easy to pin point his exact thoughts. But we never had a big blowout. Well, nothing more than who ate the remaining ice cream we were to save for a football party.

I wanted to ask him why. I wanted to know if Zayn had pressured him into this. Damn bastard. He was unfaithful to Louis, and I could assume he had no idea. I don't want to be the one to break it to him.

Was he still with Zayn? Did Zayn tell him? Okay. That one was a given. Of course he hasn't. Louis looks defeated, but not utmost destroyed, and cheating would do just to him.

He seems tough on the outside, but his rock hard exterior is merely a wall to shield the mushy bits within. He's like a brownie.

I had never agreed with drugs. Even merely some pot. It just wasn't my lifestyle, and it wasn't Louis' either. Until he came along.

I wondered how long he had been doing it. How could he hide it from me?

Suddenly all the clues fit into place like a puzzle. The smell, the secrets, the sneaking around, and extra happy Louis.

Mostly the smell bothered me. How could I be such a vacuous?

The strong sniffs of 'cologne' were always a mystery to me, yet there it was, in black and white.

Louis never properly introduced me to Zayn. I had first encountered him at the restaurant, which now I can explain Louis' strange behavior, but even more so when I found out the truth when I intruded on their intimate moment on our couch.

The texting the unknowns. It all makes sense now, so blatant in the past. I was so obtuse.

I don't know how I will forgive all of the lies.

Maybe if he left Zayn I could. That way everything would be back to normal.

But he surely wouldn't do that.

After I tell him what he's done, perhaps he will.

I have not yet been able to collect my thoughts, and this overwhelming lift from my shoulders is quite the massage.

"Are we okay now?" He was maudlin. I could sense it in his tone and in his features. I wanted to apologize, but frankly, I didn't have a reason to.

"I don't know what possessed you to take such a substance.." I close my eyes. I don't know if I can carry on. Everything will be out in the open. Did he lie to me more so than I thought?

"Adelaide, it was for mere fun." Im appalled by his lack of concern for his own health. His legs cross on the couch, and his ankle tattoos interest my distracting mind.

"Well..." He continues.

"Well what?" He looks stressed. So do I.

"We have to talk about this. I don't knows have never been our thing, and it's not starting now." I tell him, and mean it. We've always been very open with each other. Well, at least I thought we were.

"I'm sorry." He finally says. "I guess you won't continue to live with me... Or even associate with me if I continue to smoke?" I nod. He sighs. "Then I will stop."

I'm so relieved, and I can't help it when I pull him in for a big hug. "But I won't leave him." He regresses.

"Oh."

"Yeah." Things are awkward now.

"Why not?" I ask him warily. Maybe if I tell him... No! I can't be that person. But I need to tell him. For the right reasons of course.

"He will be around. And I love him." I gasp.

"He hasn't been around so long. Are you sure?"

"He's a pain in the arse." He laughs. "But yeah. I do. I love him."

He seems unsure, and as if he's had an epiphany, he looks joyed now. I have a feeling the words haven't been spoken aloud yet. "Have you told you him?"

His face falls, and so does mine. I know the word he is about to say. "No." Shit.

I hope Louis doesn't make a fool of himself. He's always been a hard core man... User. He's all for a good night in the sheets, but he expects more afterwards. Which doesn't happen often, which makes me wonder how Lou and Zayn met.

"Louis... I have to tell you something."I tell him now hours later. We had decided to take a break from the shitty talks, distancing ourselves. We decided on takeout, but nobody had ordered yet.

I recognize the fear in his eyes. I think he knows, or whatever. Zayn was being unfaithful.

With a woman!

"It's her, isn't it?" What? I'm very confused.

"What are you talking about Lou?"

"It's Amanda, she's with him isn't she?"

"Yes. How you knew, I have no idea, but she's been messing about with Harry. Annoying to say the least, and a hell of an inconvenience, but I don't see how this has anything to do with you or.."

He shakes his head, and puts up a hand, silencing me. "No."

"No?"

"With Zayn." He sobs. "They've been sleeping together haven't they?" He puts his head in his hands.

"Does he not like men anymore?" My heartbroken best friend chokes on his own sob.

"Lou.." I start, and make my way towards him on the couch.

"I saw them! I know I did! I was stalking him, almost. One night, when you went out with Harry, I found myself at the company. In the bathroom.." His voice cracks, and little does he know, I've witnessed their affairs in the bathroom myself.

"He's bisexual. Is he straight? Am I... Am I not good enough for him?" I've never seen Louis cry, and in this moment I wish I hadn't.

The blubber is coming at a ferocious rate, and I'm scared for my best friend as for the first time, he falls apart in my arms.

"I'm, I'm so sorry Louis." He nods, but I don't think he listened well, or knew just how true my words were really spoken.

"So fucking sorry." I whisper. And when he whimpers, my eyes water.

"I love him so much." He says, the high tone of his voice gone, replaced with a mumbled speech.

"I know." I stroke his head. "I know." And a curly headed boy pops into my head at the thought.

Looks like we're both heart broken by the same cheating species.
