He's Not Afraid || L.S AU

Chapter 24

Third Person's POV

Louis pulls away from Liam and looks down at his eyes that somehow look a lighter shade of brown. The pair don't speak but it's not an awkward or uncomfortable silence. It gives Louis time to think. Ever since he has moved to Cheshire, many things have been happening to him. Good things, and bad. He's made a best friend; Niall, he's went to a party with teenagers, seen a (used) condom at the party, had his first kiss, been kissed more than once, his grades are slightly (just slightly) slipping down, the bullying has stopped and he's falling in love.   

They're still in the same position before they started kissing apart from their mouths touching and moving together. Louis' fingers travel from his hairline to the corner of Liam's mouth where it's bright pink, puffy and a bit swollen. Louis wonder how long they have been like this and how his mouth looks like. 

Liam's mouth moves causing Louis' finger to go down his chin.

"Lou?" 

He look into his eyes and keep them there. "Yeah?" 

"Are you free this afternoon?"

"Niall!" Harry raises his voice.

Niall whips his head around then rolls his eyes at the person who called his name. Harry walks over to him since Niall doesn't seem to be bothered on walking to him. 

"What?" Niall asks harshly. 

"Have you seen Louis at all today?" 

"No. Look, just to clear things up, you aren't my mate or anything like that. I only let you sleep over at mine because Zayn is my mate not you so stay away from Louis and me." 

With that, Niall walks over to a girl with jet black hair, dark olive skin and skinny jeans. Well.

Harry huffs and trudges over to the school doors, the receptionist sitting right next to it, letting the student out since she once tried to tell Harry off but failed when his mother didn't seem to care he was skipping school. Harry walks straight out to the parking lot until he realizes he doesn't own a car. That only makes him groan and to bring his mood downer. He grumbles something incoherent while walking over to the cafe Louis showed him yesterday. It seems like years ago. Harry orders a hot chocolate with whip cream on top then leaves. He doesn't even know where he's going or the purpose of him going to school and waking up early when he hasn't even attended in 3 days including today. Plus he doesn't actually do school work, he just sits there while the teachers drown on. 

 He doesn't know where his feet take him but he then catches a glimpse of a huge park. He walks over to the swing set for 4 people and sits on one of the black seats that doesn't have bird poop on it. He sighs and sip on the warm beverage that has cooled down from the wind. 

The park is massive, probably half the size of a football pitch or the size of 5 double decker buses on top of each other. There are a few park benches lying around, a slide, a see-saw, a small hut for small children and a pond. Harry remembers that this park looks like a replica of the park near the train station on the edge of Cheshire where Louis was sitting on the brick-

"Get out of my head!" Harry bangs his head on the metal chains of the swing that's keeping him and his weight together. If anyone came passing by, they might mistaken Harry for a complete and utter loonatic that has just manged to escape the mental hospital. 

He places his drink on the floor since some has spilled on his black shirt from his outrageous attempt in getting Louis out of his head.

Harry fishes out his phone and checks the time. 1:53PM
