Louis could feel Harry behind him, the hot breath on his neck and the soft hands upon his waist. "You know I do more than tutor, don't you?" Harry whispered softly in his ear. The butterflies in Louis' stomach erupted, but before he could say anything, Harry had him pinned against the wall. Louis smiled when Harry kissed him, and wrapped his hand around the back of Harry's beautiful curls, pulling him in tighter. This felt right. Perfect, in fact. But no one could know... No one could ever know. * * * * * * * * * * * * Louis is the high school jock and the most popular kid in school with a big secret - he's gay. Despite his popularity, Louis feels empty inside. Loneliness consumes him, and Harry - his tutor that he's liked since day one- is the only thing that'll fill that void. Harry is a humble soft boy who knows more about romance than he let on. He tutors Louis multiple times a week and starts out blissfully unaware of Louis' feelings for him. However, he quickly develops feelings of his own and has a hard time hiding them from Louis. As their feelings for one another turn from a spark of interest into a flaming fire of passionate love, it becomes a constant struggle to keep their romance a secret. * * * * * * * * * * * * [Complete] First started: Nov. 5, 2020 First 1,000 reads: Nov. 6, 2020 First 10,000 reads: Nov. 11, 2020 First 50,000 reads: Dec. 5, 2020 Top Ranks: #1 in stylinson #4 in louistomlinson #1 in niallhoran #1 in larrystylinson #1 in louisandharry #1 in 1Dlove #2 in louis

"I love you Hazzy, don't forget me." Louis says desperately, gripping Harry's cheeks firmly, yet so softly, not wanting to walk away. "I could never LouLou." Harry's bottom lip wobbles. "I love you more." Harry says, kissing Louis quickly on the cheek, his eyes so glassy. They look so sad, yet so beautiful. Louis kisses his cheek as well, gripping onto him so tightly, he can't bear himself to let go. He can't leave, but he has to. The two boys hug tightly until Jay comes to take Louis away who finally bursts out into tears, causing Harry to physically drop to the ground as his sobs fill the quiet air. Anne is instantly next to him, crying silently, holding him tightly as Louis' car drives away, the young boy looking back in agony, his heart shattering as he sees his best friend break. The car drives out of sight from the mother and son, both young boys wondering if they'd ever see the other again. Started: March 30, 2021 Finished: October 9, 2021
