AN HOUR LATER...

Liam and Harry are currently lying down on the older lad's bed, legs tangled together under the blanket that only covers the lower half of their bodies. The curly-haired lad is playing with Liam’s fingers, smiling dopily to himself and nuzzling his face into Liam’s chest. Said lad just lets him, smiling to himself as well as he runs his fingers through Harry’s hair and tries not to think much about anything else.

He only succeeds for a minute before he lets out a heavy sigh, making Harry look up at him from his chest.

“Something wrong?”

“Not with you, if that’s what you’re worried about,” Liam replies, looking down at him.

“Li, I know something’s wrong. Just tell me,” Harry prompts, sitting up on the bed and flipping over to lie on his belly to face Liam.

The brown-eyed lad sighs again, but wraps an arm around Harry to pull him closer. “I’m just thinking about how I’m gonna tell Louis and the others about this – about us. I’m trying to figure out a way to tell Louis without setting him off to have a sudden urge to kill you or something.”

Humming at that, Harry nods and reaches out his hand to tangle it in Liam’s hair. “… Speaking of ‘us’,” he starts nervously, avoiding Liam’s eyes as he continues slowly. “What – Are we an ‘us’?”

“I – um, I would hope so.”

“But what about - … My Dad did something really awful to yours, and I know that’s the reason why you guys kidnapped me; to get back at my family for becoming rich and successful with your  Dad’s idea. That really wasn’t fair to you and your family. I get why you did this, and I’m willing to do anything to make it up to all of you. Especially now that we could be an ‘us’ and all.”

Smiling fondly at him, Liam grabs Harry’s chin to make him look the older lad in the eyes. “Well, I appreciate that, Stylesy. But to be fair, what I thought was a great plan to get back at your family was very wrong.”

“I get why, though. I would be mad too if someone did that to my Dad. But he did it to yours, so… “

“Still wasn’t your  fault. And besides, I can think of many other things you could do to make it up to me,” Liam suggests cheekily, pulling Harry on top of him to straddle his waist. “I’ll think of something else you could do to make it up to my family later. Right now, I wanna see what else you can do for me at the moment.”

Harry giggles at that, leaning down to kiss Liam’s lips slowly, yet sensually. He’s trying to show Liam how much this means to him, finally knowing that Liam for sure feels the same way about him. It seems so perfect,…

As much as he’s enjoying snogging Liam for however long they can, he can’t stop thinking about what the others will think when they find out. Squeezing his eyes shut to try and will the worry away, Harry deepens the kiss, somewhat surprising Liam from this sudden urgency to snog with tongue and all. Not that Liam minds, really. But maybe Harry’s overthinking like he just was.

When the kiss continues to drag on with a desperate moan leaving Harry’s mouth, Liam pulls away and holds the other’s face in his hands gently, trying to figure out what’s going on with him.
