Louis' knees are pulled up, sand in between his toes as he looks at the ocean that's in front of him. In the distance he can hear the chatter from Laura and all the guests, he can hear the next video being played. He is thankful that none of the producers have followed him. He really couldn't have dealt with their shit right now.

Because Harry just confessed, for the whole world to see, that he is sure that Louis is his soulmate. Harry, the one that Louis has let go...

"You really are nothing without me in this villa, are you Tomlinson?" Louis turns around, only to see Danielle standing a few feet away from him, her arms crossed but a small smile playing on her lips.

"Dani!" Louis stands up and rushes up to her, the tears that have been waiting patiently all night are spilling as Danielle holds Louis closer to her.

"Oh, Lou... Talk to me, please talk. I have been so worried when watching the show. It killed me to see you like this and not being able to be there for you."

Louis wipes away his tears with his thumb and sits down again, Danielle following his example.

"I don't know what to do anymore." Louis sighs. "I mean- I love Harry, I obviously do, but I'm so scared that in the end we will break up anyway and it's going to hurt so fucking bad, Dani..."

"I can't promise that you will never break up." Danielle says. "But what I can promise you, because I know you two, is that you are going to be happy together, Lou. You are going to share so many beautiful together if you let yourself... I get that you are scared and believe me, I was ready to tear every single curl out of Harry's head when he reacted the way he did when you told him about the job, but Louis everybody makes mistakes, also the people that we love. It just hurts more, but that doesn't make it unforgivable. Harry loves you so much and he regrets what he has said. I get that you want to protect yourself, but maybe it's time to let your guard down so you can finally be as happy as you deserve...and when it ends one day then yeah, of course that sucks and you will be heartbroken as fuck but- how are you feeling now?"

"Heartbroken as fuck." Louis mumbles, repeating his friend's words.

"I will not tell you what to do, and I will always support you because you are the brother that I never had and always wished for, just know that the happiest I have seen you is when you are with him."

"What if I fucked everything up already between us?" Louis whispers.

Danielle looks behind her and then gives Louis a small smile.

"You'll find out soon enough." The girl stands up, making Louis look behind him as well, only to make directly eye contact with a pair of green eyes.

Danielle whispers something into Harry's ear before leaving the beach, and then it's just the two of them. Louis feels nervous, starts to bite his fingernails as he stares at the sand.

"Hey..." Harry's voice is soft, slightly broken and it gives Louis goosebumps.

"Hello..." Louis says in the same tone.

"Can I sit next to you?" Harry's feet are shuffling in the sand until he sees Louis nod. He takes place next to the older boy, keeping a fair amount of distance between them.

"You ran away..." Harry starts the conversation. "Not the first time I have to chase you."

"You don't have to chase me." Louis shrugs, trying to look indifferent.

"I want to. I'll chase you anywhere."

"You said that you think that I'm your soulmate..." Louis blurts out. "And I don't know, I mean I know because it's proven that you told the truth but- how? How after everything that happened are you convinced that I'm your soulmate?" Louis is still scared to look at Harry, scared that Harry is going to tell him that he has changed his mind, that Louis isn't anything to him anymore.

Harry carefully grabs Louis' hand, the contact sending fire into the boy's body. He makes the mistake of looking into the emerald green of Harry's eyes, heart beating out of his chest.

"Especially after everything that happened, I am convinced that you're my soulmate." Harry whispers, eyes never leaving Louis'. "I can't bare the thought of being without you. You drive me fucking crazy, Louis, insane. You make me want to push you off a bridge sometimes but- I'll be there, I'll be down to catch you again. That's what you are doing to me. You are my best friend and you make me the fucking happiest person alive and one word coming from your lips can hurt me so easily, like it's nothing. You bring up emotions that I didn't know existed. When you told me that you couldn't go to Paris with me- My whole world crumbled down in seconds because the thought of not having you near me, kills me."

"I would have come to visit you, as much as I could. You could have done the same. We could have worked something out, right?"

"We still can. I know that you love me, there's no denying anymore." Both boys chuckle lightly, the air becoming tinner between them. "And you know how I feel about you."

"I'm sorry..." Louis whispers, afraid again to look at Harry. "I'm sorry that I gave up on us so easily. The way you make me feel is scary."

"I know." Harry nods. "Because you make me feel the exact same way. It's literally terrifying, isn't it? Feeling like you can't function without..."

"Exactly." Louis doesn't let Harry finish; he knows what he means. "There is so much talking we should do."

"This show, it's not a deadline, Louis. It's only the beginning of us." Harry moves closer to the boy. "We should go back because one of the producers was ready to sue me when I was about to follow you, but- we can talk tonight, yeah? When all of this is over?"

"I really love you, Harry." Louis says, head resting on the younger boy's shoulder. "I'm sorry and I love you. Those are two things that you should know before we go back.

Harry kisses Louis' forehead before he says:

"I'm sorry too, and thank you for being here. I never thought I would actually meet my soulmate..."
