chapter 8

"It's a closure thing"

"No it's a trick" 

"It's a new life"

"It's making me feel guilty"

That's when Gemma slapped his brother across the face. Harry's eyes widened. What's with all the violence lately in his life? 

"Snap out of it Maxwell! You're not some love sick desperate fool who's hung up on his amnesia jerk of a face boyfriend. You are Max Styles. People get afraid from the name, people hide from that name and you need your reputation back in that town where Nate is. You want him? You try. But not as you..."

Max was sill clutching his cheek while nodding. Gemma was scary when she was demanding so he sighed and let her drag him inside the mall. They had some shopping to do. 

           That weekend, the three of them went back to see Louis and Niall but mostly Louis. That guy was a master of transformation. 

"You and Nate better be making out a few times out of this or I'm missing my daily skype calls with Liam for nothing" Louis grumbled once they all went into his house. 

Niall looked up from his phone when he spotted the twins and Gemma and grinned. 

"Hey there sexy" Niall greeted, walking towards Harry. 

Harry didn't brother replying, he wrapped his arms around Niall's waist and pulled him closer, fitting his head into the crook of his boyfriend's neck as he did. 

"Hey baby" Harry muttered and Niall pulled away, pecking him on the mouth quickly. 

"Nooooo"

"Yesssss lover boy, we have some work to do" Gemma rolled her eyes. 

"You mean they have work, I can just stay down here with Niall" Harry grinned, pulling Niall to his side and wrapping an arm around him. Niall smiled, totally on board with the idea.

"Uh no I'm not gonna want to explain to my mom about the stains on the couch so all of you, up!" Louis instructed, going up the stairs. 

Harry sighed, making Niall laugh. 

"How about after all of this, we hang out at the bakery?" Niall tiptoed to whisper in his boyfriend's ear. 

"You have to work?"

"Nope but I do have some homework to do so the bakery seems like a good place" Niall shrugged, kissing Harry on the cheek. 

Harry grinned. As long as he was spending time with Niall, he didn't mind. 

      "Took you long enough" Max commented, looking at the couple as they went into the room. Max was sitting on a one of those spinning chairs at Louis' desk. 

"What are we gonna do with the hair" Louis muttered to himself. 

"A buzz cut?"

Max's eyes widened. 

"That's so ugly no, maybe like a Johnny depp curl thing" 

Max's hands flew up to his hair, scared for its life. 

"How about 2012 Max huh" Harry suddenly piped up. 

Gemma's eyes widened as she remembered and nodded vigorously. 

"What - what is 2012 Max?" Niall asked, confused. 

"We made a bet in 2012, Harry and Max had to cut their hair a certain style and see how many guys/girls they could get" Gemma explained, pulling out her phone to scroll through the year's pictures.
