Yet again the feedback on the new Q&A was very positive.
Louis got the motivation to write songs so he locked himself up in his studio to do some songwriting.
Harry calls him up and makes sure he is okay. "Hey, Louis."
"Hey Haz," Louis says with a smile.
"How's it going?"
"Pretty good. Just wrote a song."
"What's it about?"
"The name is Defenceless. It's about not being able to be you. More about my old management."
Harry nods. "Nice."

"I am working on another one right now," Louis says.
"What's it about?"
"Overcoming some of my problems and learning from my mistakes," Louis says. "It's not done yet."
"Alright. Both sound really positive."
Louis chuckles. "Yeah, I know. Why you calling though?"
"I just wanted to check in on you I guess."
"Well, I'm fine. Working hard."
"Do you need some distraction?"
"Hmm... It depends on what it is."
"Open the door to find out."
Louis frowns and at that point the call ends. So he gets up and opens the door to see Harry standing there with some McDonald's in his hands. "Good enough?"
Louis laughs and nods. "Yeah. Come in."

"I got us McDonald's," Harry says and he holds up the bag.
"Ooo. Nice," Louis says and they sit down on the couch. "Ignore all the papers. It's a mess right now."
"It's fine. I understand."
"So what did you bring?"
"Fries, nuggets, and basic big mac's."
"I feel like Niall is going to come out any second to steal it."
It makes Harry laugh. "Probably."
They start eating the food. "Thanks for bringing it by the way."
"Yeah no worries, anytime."

"Can I read what you have so far?" Harry asks.
"Yeah. Sure," Louis says and he hands him one of the papers.
Louis watches him read is. He was super insecure all of a sudden. What if Harry hated it? "Just so you know, it's not perfect yet," he quickly says.
"It's really good so far," Harry says and he smiles at him. "You're talented. "
That makes him blush and he feels more confident. "Aw. Thanks, love."
And that nickname gives Harry the biggest smile ever on his face.

"Didn't you say other people were with you?" Harry asks.
"Yeah. But they went out for a bit."
Harry nods. "Ah okay. When will they be back?"
"I really don't know. They left about 10 minutes ago."
"How many people are there?"
"Only John Ryan is here with me right now."
"I worked with him before too. Nice guy."
"Yeah, he is."
After finishing their food, the boy just talks more as they snuggle up.
"Apparently there are Anti's now too. The people who get mad at people who ship us," Harry says as he plays with Louis' hair.
"Really? That's insane. How did it get so bad?"
"I really don't know. Maybe because you referenced a partner as 'she' in the video."
"It's a habit okay. I am not used to this."
"I know. I just noticed it."

John walks back in and sees the two together. "Oh, hi Harry. I didn't know you two were together," he says.
"Oh we're not-," Louis says. He stops himself because he knows they really look like a couple right now. Maybe he didn't mean it like that. "Harry came by with some food for me."
"Just wanted to come by real quick," Harry says and he chuckles. "The songs you wrote so far sound good already."
"Thanks. Louis mainly did the work. He was really inspired," John says.

"I didn't know you two were that close by the way. I've seen things on the news but that's just media," John says.
"Oh yeah. We've been talking," Louis says and he smiles. "Nothing too much yet."
"The media and fans make it bigger. Especially the fans. That's a mess right now," Harry says.
"Yeah, for sure," John says  "I can imagine that. When they even think two people are together they go wild."
"Apparently they either hate on shippers or are shippers," Louis says.
To which Harry nods.
"Should we continue?" John switches the conversation.
"Yeah, sure!" Louis says.

And so they finish the other song, now named 'Walls' and then they decide to call it an end and Louis and Harry leave together.
"What do you want to do?" Louis asks Harry.
"Hmm... I don't know. What do you want?"
"I don't know. What time is it?" He grabs his phone and checks the time. Its 7 pm. "Oh 7 pm."
They walk over to the parking spot. "You got here by car too didn't you?" Harry asks.
"Yeah, I did."
"Wanna go back to my place and just hang out?"
"Yeah. Sure."

And so they both get in their car and drive towards Harry's place. When they're there, they go inside and get comfortable on the couch with a beer. Louis will probably stay tonight anyway so why not.
"Did you ever hear from Eleanor again?" Harry then asks.
"Nope. Don't blame her, though. I've given her enough shit."
"Yeah, that's true."
Louis nods and leans against him. "I feel bad for moving on so fast."
"You can't change that."
"I can. I got over a long term relationship so fast. As if it was nothing. I get that it may be different but if you look at it, it's a shit move."
"Louis, you took time for yourself. You don't have to feel bad about moving on and finding someone. You can't help the way you feel. And we're talking it slow, as slow as you want us to go."

Louis nods and sighs. "I know. I just think about it and know she is hurting and it makes me feel so bad. I realize I can't help it and it's life. I maybe should've waited longer I don't know."
"But are you happy right now?" Harry asks.
"Of course, I am."
"Well if you're happy that's all that should matter. And like I said we take it as slow as you want to."
Louis nods. "Yeah... you're right..."
Harry kisses his forehead gently and smiles a bit. "I'm always right."
