Lottie's Brother (larry au)

9

Harry and Daniel, we're now sitting in the living room a decent amount of space between them as they sat on the middle centered gray couch.

The living room was dull with a gray and white theme, the walls we're covered in family pictures that screamed our family is better than yours.

"I was hoping we could watch a movie, like a scary one?" Harry knew that scary movies were usually an excuse for couples to get closer but he wanted to believe Daniel wasn't proving Louis right.

"Sure." Daniel beams and turns on his tv he browses through a few movies before clicking on one that Harry hasn't seen.

"I hope you like this one, I'm going to get us some drinks what would you like?" Daniel asks and Harry responds with water.

The movie is about to begin when Daniel returns with two glasses one filled with water and the other juice.

Harry doesn't want to seem like the rudest guest but he thinks Louis made him paranoid because he's second-guessing his drink. He's also watched way too many movies he thinks to himself. He stares down at it and everything looks clear. Daniel smiles over at him and gets comfortable against the couch.

Harry convinces himself he's being crazy because Daniel was being so nice. He wouldn't let Louis get in his head again he couldn't let Louis win again.

He takes a large sip and tries to relax as the movie plays. Halfway through the movie, Daniel ends up way closer to Harry then he was originally at first.

Harry just tries to ignore it but he can't ignore the way Daniel sets his arm around his neck. He turns to look at him and Daniel surges forward to plant his lips against Harry's lips.

He kisses Harry urgently and Harry is frozen in his spot but he quickly recovers by pushing Daniel off; softly but hard enough to move him away completely.

"What? Oh... do you need to catch your breath?" Daniel asks a smugly and Harry internally facepalms.

"No, I'm sorry but I didn't want that to happen, I'm not in the mood to kiss right now." Harry again mentally face palms and scolds himself for saying that because now he's made it seem like he would want to kiss him in the future.

"Oh, okay it's fine whatever you want baby." Harry cringes at the pet name and Daniel pulls him into his side and they continue watching the movie.

Harry is a little uncomfortable with Daniel being so touchy but he doesn't know how to tell him to fuck off nicely. He can't even blame himself because he was the one who was willing to give him a chance, but that was before he got his heart completely shattered.

The movie is almost finished and Daniel is trying to make some funny commentary but is failing in Harry's opinion, when his phone rings.

Lots:
Heeyyy! where are you? We need to talk can you come over please like right now??

Harry looks at his options staying here with Daniel or hanging out with Lottie.

"Daniel, I had a really fun time but I have to go see Lottie like immediately it's an emergency." Harry says on the spot knowing obviously which option was better.

"Oh, is everything okay?" Daniel asks his face only displaying how worried he is.

"Yeah don't worry I don't think it's anything too major, but Lottie needs me right now." Harry kinda feels bad for maybe making it a bigger deal than it is but Lottie did sound like she was in distress.

"You're such a good friend... let's go we don't wanna keep Lottie waiting." Daniel says before running to get his keys and for some reason the compliment and his actions make Harry smile. He knew Louis was wrong Daniel was a great guy.
