One Direction Analysis

One-Shot #1- Pt. 1 (Larry)

Hey guys! It's Nicky. So, I wasn't planning on this book to include any one-shots, but I was, oddly enough, sitting at my grandparents' house when this story gave to mind and I had to write it down. This actually includes some of my theories that I will elaborate upon in another chapter. I honestly believe that this story could be true. Hope you like it!

P.S. If anyone has a better idea for the title, please comment.

The Rekindle of a Lost Love

It was New Year's Eve of the year 2019, approaching 2020 and Harry Styles was at his London house. It was a relatively calm evening for the musician. Instead of partying his ass off at some club with other celebrities or his friends, he was huddled up in the living room of his house. The T.V. was on for the upcoming countdown, but Harry was not paying attention to it. He was staring at the clock on the wall above the T.V. Time was ticking closer to midnight and he was still waiting for something, or rather someone, to show up at his door. He was waiting for Louis Tomlinson.

Harry sat on his couch waiting for the doorbell to ring, for a long waited phone call, or even text message from Louis. As he waited, he thought back to the events that led this moment.

~^.^~

It was September 28, 2013 when Harry and Louis were in the tour bus speaking silently to each other in the middle of the night. Zayn, Niall, and Liam were sound asleep in their bunks getting rest for their next show. Louis had climbed into Harry's bunk not so secretly that night. It was routine, but there was something different about this night. Earlier that day, Harry and Louis were told by Management that the two were being too obvious when it came to their relationship together. For the past couple of years, Management had not been as upset about the two for occasional slip-ups until today. Today, Management had banned them—completely— from showing any of their relationship. Today would be the last day of being even a little like themselves.

"Harry," Louis said to Harry, bringing Harry's thoughts back to Louis's arms spooning him, "what are we going to do?"

It was a very straightforward answer, yet there was also so much to it. "I don't know Lou," Harry replied, "I thought they would be happy once you found Eleanor. I didn't think they would want us to do more to hide it."

"Hazza, I pretty sure we both knew that they would never be satisfied with just one beard for me. So many fans already saw right through Eleanor and I." Louis took a deep breath, pulling Harry closer to him. "Our lives are no longer our own. We knew it once they told us we couldn't go public. But we can't leave because we signed a contract. What do we do?" Louis said, pained.

"Lou," Harry said, surprising Louis, "I think we need to take a break."

"What?!" Louis said, hurt evident in his eyes, "We could still get through this Haz, it's just a few more years before we renew the contract. We could keep hiding it, we could make Management happy until we figure things out. But we can't just end it!"

Tears started to stream down both the boys faces, "I can't take it anymore, Louis. Sometimes I just want to give you a hug at the end of a concert, or even a high five and I can't. I'd rather have none of you than hold back from loving you completely." Louis was silent, thinking. "I'm not saying that we won't be together ever again, but... let's make a deal."

"What is it Harry?" Louis said, voice cracking.

"After the contract is over," Harry said, already knowing the plan, he did spend days thinking of it after all, "Like before the 10 year anniversary of the band, we could come back together— only if we weren't back together already or... don't want to be together again." It was silent. "What do you think, Louis?"

It was a minute of silence before Louis answered back. "I just," Louis began, "don't understand how you could just forget about all we've been through in all these years. Did it mean nothing to you? Yeah, they put a lot on us, but we had our moments. Can't that be enough."

"I get," said Harry, "I really do. I just don't know what else to do."

"Fine," Louis said abruptly, "I'll do it, but once this is over, there is no guarantee that I will come back to you. And before you said anything, I don't want to hear it because I sacrificed everything for this relationship. For fuck's sake I'm in a fake relationship being of stupid Management so they will lay off on us. If we end it now, all of that would be for nothing. So, Harry, I won't promise it show up again once you break up with me."

Harry closed his eyes knowing that everything Louis just said was true. But Harry also knew that if their relationship continued, it wouldn't last with all the pressure on them. Finally, after what felt like hours, Harry responded to Louis, "I still think that we should take a break."

Harry turned around to see Louis with that face. He had a forced smile that made him look annoyed, but Harry knew that whenever Louis had that facade on, it meant that he was hiding his pain behind it. Louis unwrapped his arms from around Harry. "Fine," Louis said, "you said it, we're done." Louis was about to leave when Harry grabbed onto his arm.

"Wait, before you leave could you promise me something?"

Louis gave him that look again, "I already did enough for you."

"On the New Year's Eve before 2020, can we meet to decide where we want to go with our relationship? I won't come to you, begging you to come back to me. But, if you are willing to come back, I'll be waiting for you. I promise."

Louis's facade slipped for a second. "I won't promise that I will be there, but I will always mean what I said a few years ago." He embraced Harry for the last time as lovers and whispered in Harry's ear, "Always in my heart, Hazza. Yours Sincerely, Lou." The two shared one final kiss before Louis hopped off of Harry's bunk and back into his own.

The next day, the two told the rest of the boys and Management. Management loved it, but the other boys, especially Niall didn't like the decision but understood. There were occasional slip-ups here and there, but else major.
