"I'm trying," Harry said. "To be what they want. To say the things they need. But when I'm on camera, and they ask me about love, or feelings, or anything soft-I only know how to talk about you."
Louis's breath hitched.
"But if I look at you," Harry continued, "if I say that on camera-if I mean it-they'll take it all away."
"I know," Louis said again, quieter this time.
His shoulders slumped as he kept talking. "And I can't be the reason you lose this. You were made for this."

Louis scoffed. "I was made to fix messes. You were made to be seen."
"I want you to see me."
