"I know, he initiated everything. Don't worry. Yes, of course, I love you , El. Please don't forget that this is all fake." Louis said into the phone. Just a couple of minutes after Harry kissed Louis, the photos went viral. Then there were rumors that they went to the bathroom to have sex. And they had some solid proof backing them up, Louis must admit, even though he knew it wasn't true.
"Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry, it's just stressing me out a bit you know. Being with you, but not being with you." Eleanor explained and Louis felt a lump form in his throat. He knew where this was heading. "I think it'd just be easier if we broke up. We can get back together when this is all over. I just can't handle all of this."
Louis frowned and let out a deep sigh. A part of him wanted to disagree and fight for her. However, a bigger part of him understood where she was coming from.
"Yeah, I-I get it, it's alright. I love you, El, and hopefully this will be all over soon." Louis said with a soft sigh.
"Hopefully." Eleanor mumbled sadly before hanging up.
Louis groaned and flopped onto his bed, Charlie running in instantly and laying on top of him. Nearly engulfing the small man. Louis chuckled softly shifted a bit so he was cuddling with the big dog. "You're all I got, Charles." Louis said and let out a little giggle when the dog howled.
Louis doesn't know how long he laid there just thinking, until he heard rustling at his front door. The house was silent and the rustling was pretty freaking loud, considering he could hear it in his bedroom. Charlie got up and ran to the door, Louis following behind him.
"Yes?" Louis asked quickly opening the door. Harry stood there scowling at a bush, before turning to Louis with pink cheeks.
"Hi, sorry, Liam sent me here. I-I know things are still awkward from me screwing up, and I'm still really sorry about that. I didn't mean to do that. It's just, you were being really nice, I don't know it just happened. I'm super sorry." Harry soon began to ramble until a cough came from the bush.
Louis examined the bush and rolled his eyes when seeing some blond hair. "I can see you, Niall."
"Obviously I know that. But Harry didn't want to come without me, and Liam said I could only come if I hid." Niall explained. Louis let out a sigh while rubbing his temples before letting Harry walk in and Niall follow behind.
"Ohh I missed you so much." Niall squealed as Charlie jumped around him excitedly. "We're gonna go to the back." Niall said before he ran to the back door. Louis had a nice backyard, nothing too fancy. Perfect for small parties and hanging out. And for Niall to easily hide from paparazzi as he played fetch with the poodle.
Harry sat awkwardly on the couch, Louis on the opposite side of it, paying attention to the tv. The air was thick and Harry was tense and obviously very uncomfortable. They were making progress, now it's all gone. Louis had to be the one to mend it all.
"Harry." Harry jumped at the sudden sound and turned to him. "Let's just forget anything happened, yeah. Look we can play fifa or something." Louis suggested picking up an Xbox controller that was on the coffee table.
"I-I've never really played video games." Harry admitted sheepishly.
"Are you serious!? How?" Harry let out a little giggle at Louis' reaction. "Well now it's my job to teach you. I'm disappointed Niall hasn't." Louis sat in front of his tv and set up his xbox and looking through all of his games. "We can go with some easy games, I have Minecraft for my sisters, or we can try Rocket League. They're ok games for someone who has never played video games."
"Well my niece plays Minecraft, I can start with that." Harry said smiling at Louis' excitement. Louis gave him a thumbs up as he put the disk in. He set up the game before sitting beside Harry. He showed Harry all of the controls and different actions, before starting the game.
"So what happens if I jump off?" Harry asked from atop of a hill.
"What do you think happens, Harry?" Louis scoffed as he gathered items. Harry rolled his eyes and shoved Louis' arm.
"Wait, what happens when it gets dark?" Harry asked as he wondered through some trees dumbly, while Louis built some shelter. Suddenly, a growling sound came from the tv causing Harry to jump.
"No, no! Louis why didn't you tell there were monsters in this stupid game!" Harry shouted as he was killed. Louis erupted into fits of giggles, not aware of the monster nearby, and frowned when he died too.
Harry spawned in game first and stole all of Louis' items. Louis starred at him with wide eyes before scrunching up his face. He leaned over and pressed random buttons on Harry's controller.
"Hey!" The two giggled as they fought over the controllers. Until they ended up rolling onto the ground. "You silly goose." Harry said mockingly while flicking his wrist.
"Dork." Louis snorted before crawling back onto the couch. "Let's play Fortnite!" Louis said excitedly as Harry made his way back on to the couch.
"I've seen all the memes about that game." Harry said watching Louis exit out of the game and enter another. "Lewis, if I lose this game, I will never play another game again and it'll be your fault."
"Well, it'd be rather hard for you to win this game. But if you last for awhile that's pretty good too." Louis said with a smile before once again explaining all the controls.
Niall walked in with the dog just as Louis was explaining everything. He quickly took out his phone and snapped a photo of them.
Otp playing video games
He smiled proudly at the caption before posting it. He then walked over and flopped onto the couch surprising the two.
"You guys should see my new post." Niall said with a smirk. Harry furrowed his eyebrows and opened his phone. He went to Instagram before he facepalmed.
"You're a bloody idiot." Louis said, his happy mood falling, knowing they would get in trouble again.
"Niall, you're not supposed to be here, no one is supposed to know you're here." Harry explained as Niall's eyes widened and realization hit him.
"Whatever, whatever." Louis sighed pressing his fingers to his temples. "I am a stressed man, I do not need this." He whined before laying back onto Harry's lap. "Harold would you be a dear, and make this stressed man some food?" Louis asked bringing his hand up to pet Harry's face.
"I wanna help!" Niall shrieked before running to the kitchen.
"Fine, did you know I used to be baker."
"Oi, get back there before the blond bloke burns down my house." Harry giggled and stood up when Louis got off of his lap. He stood up and made his way to the kitchen. He liked this a lot, yes, he was scared he ruined everything when he kissed Louis. But it's ok, they're friends now. And the kiss was in-the-moment kind of thing, it just felt right. However, it doesn't now and that's how he likes it.
"That bitch has us cooking for him like maids." Niall scoffed as he stirred something in a bowl hurriedly.
"What are you even doing?" Harry asked with a little laugh.
"I have no idea, there's nothing in here!" Niall said before laughing loudly. Harry couldn't help but laugh just as loudly, Niall's happiness was contagious.
"Oi, quiet will ya." Louis exclaimed as he entered the kitchen. Harry and Niall looked at him then at each other with blank faces.
"Oi!" Niall mimicked first before Harry followed after. They then bursted into a loud laughing fit. Louis rolled his eyes but couldn't help the smile on his face.
"Whatever, where's my food?" Louis asked trying to drop the smile but failing.
"You go to the living room, it'll be out in twenty minutes. Harry why don't you wait with him, you guys can bond more." Niall said ignoring the suspicious looks he was receiving from the fake couple. He pushed them out of the kitchen before dialing a number on his phone.
"He's so weird." Harry said with a little scoff before plopping onto the couch. Harry jumped when Louis pressed himself to Harry. Now, Harry is known to be a very cuddly person, clingy you might say, but this was odd to him. Being so close to Louis, it seemed almost intimate and made his cheeks flush. If it were any other situation he'd accept cuddles in a heartbeat, but this is Louis. The guy that, just two weeks ago, bullied him.
However, he swallowed his insecurities and awkwardness and decided to get comfortable. He made sure to slowly and subtly push Louis off of him so he could lay his head on Louis' shoulder. It took a bit of awkward shifting and avoided looks for them to get into a good position. But they did it. Louis somewhat wrapped around Harry, while Harry laid himself on Louis. It was rather confusing and looked uncomfortable but it was fine for them.
Then they realized that the remote was on the other end of the couch. Louis unraveled himself form Harry with a little sigh as he stretched for the remote. Louis' limbs are small however, causing him to groan loudly and completely stand up. Harry giggled to himself which Louis heard. He gave Harry a glare before plopping down the farthest away from Harry.
Harry didn't even think of any consequences, he just slithered his way to Louis and laid his head in the actor's lap. Louis still had a grumpy face even has he played with Harry's hair.
Charlie waltzed up to the couch, right in front of Harry's face. He sat down and just starred at Harry, occasionally a little whine would slip.
"You're in his spot." Louis said moving his hand from Harry's hair to pet the dog. Harry smiled at the dog as he sat up. Louis patted his lap before the dog immediately jumped into it. Charlie's tail wagged excitedly as he licked Louis' face.
I've been dead for awhile. I stupidly decided to take college courses in June and have exams next week. Horrible decision and do not recommend it. But they're almost over so I'll give more attention to my stories.
