We're getting closer and closer... I'm an evil tease I know.... :D

Did I mention how much I love you, your support and your comments? Quitegoodatwoodtech

After their seperate courses the boys met in the cafeteria for lunch break. On their way to their table Eleanor and Sophia joined them. Happily chatting they sat down and started eating their lunch. 

"I stil can't believe you did that" Zayn couldn't stop laughing. 

"It wasn't my fault. She just scribbled her name on it without warning me and then started talking about fashion in front of the whole class. I had no chance to tell her I changed the topic" justified Harry himself. 

"That was so funny. Her face was priceless" commented Eleanor on it with a laugh. 

"Not my problem that she didn't do anything" shurgged Harry unbothered. 

"She deserved it. She tried to steal my baby" intertwined Louis his fingers with Harry's. 

"In vain. I'm all yours" threw Harry him a dopey grin. 

"Anyways, why did you two looked like you were about to fall into laughter the whole time? What was so funny?" addressed Sophia Liam and Louis. 

Nothing" both said at the same time which made them burst into laughter now. 

"These two bubble heads had a play fight during their work time and were thinking about doing it for the presentation too. That's it" explained Harry their behaviour. 

"Typical for them" shook Sophia amused her head. 

"Bubble heads? You spend too much time with Louis, that's for sure" grinned Niall smugly. 

"I do NOT" exclaimed Harry offended. 

"Shh. Calm down, princess. He doesn't understand. He is a lonely leprechaun" petted Louis Harry's hair calmingly. 

"I'm not lonely" pouted Niall. 

"So you talked with Hailee?" raised Zayn an eyebrow at him. 

"Not yet" mubmled Niall barely audible. 

"Well, did you realise we had a Full Moon on Saturday and no one remembered that?" asked Harry his friends without thinking it through. 

"Really? I totally forgot" was Zayn shocked. 

"But nothing happened" reminded Liam him soothingly. 

"What is so important about the Full Moon?" was Sophia confused. 

"Nothing. It's just beautiful, don't you think? Very romantic" covered Eleanor the slip up. Sophia seemed to buy it. 

"What's romantic? Are they all over each other again?" appeared Ashton at the table with the other 5 Seconds Of Summer boys and Danielle. 

"Who? These two idots or those?" pointed Niall firstly at Harry and Louis then at Eleanor and Sophia. 

"Does it matter?" threw Ashton him a look. 

"Good point" shrugged Niall and focused back on his food. 

Because all five sat down at the table too the others had to slide closer together which caused Zayn and Liam to be literally squeezed together next to each other while Sophia sat halfly on Eleanor's lap. Luke sat down on Ashton's lap without even thinking about it causing Micheal and Callum to laugh at them. But Larry topped all of them. Harry sat down again diagonally on his seat and Louis sat down on his lap wrapping his legs around Harry's waist so they were facing each other very closely. 

"Well, that's one way to do it" commented Danielle on their position. 

"If that doesn't proof who is Top and who is Bottom then I don't know what would. Just look at the dominance Louis is radiating" chuckled Callum. 

"Only a straight person can say shit like that" rolled Zayn with his eyes. 

"What do you mean? Do you not see them?" Callum didn't understand what he meant. 

"Of course I see them, how can you not? But that doesn't mean anything. In a healty gay relationship you share. Of course there is a tendency who tops more but it isn't just one. You share because you're equal, right boys?" explained Zayn to Callum what he meant and then faced Louis and Harry. 

"Umm..." made Harry overstrained. This gay thing was still knew to him and he had literally no idea what Zayn was talking about. 

"Yes" said Louis in a deep voice and kissed his boyfriend. 

Yes, get it" cheered Luke at them and Ashton wolf whistled.

"Guys, can you stop it or...." tried Liam to stop them. 

 "Really Liam? Just let them be. They're happy and they show it. Let them kiss" Zayn couldn't hide the disappointment in his voice. 

"True, but if they don't stop right now Harry will fall down from his seat and crash to the floor" pointed Liam at the two of them who immediately stopped what they were doing. 

"Looking at them, they would most likely just continue to make out on the floor" snickered Eleanor entertained. 

"Without a doubt" agreed Sophia with her. 

"I'm so sorry, Liam. I shouldn't have assumed you would....". 

"It's okay, Zayn. You have every right to. I wouldn't trust myself either" smiled Liam understandingly at him and put his hand on Zayn's. 

"Why aren't you with Christopher though? I was thinking he is a secret Popstar and you follow him as a Groupie everywhere, Dani" wiggled Sophia her eyebrows at her best friend. 

"He looks like a God, so maybe you're right with that" was her jokingly answer. 

"The only person looking like a God is Zayn" contradicted Niall which caused a glare from Liam. Niall just winked at him. 

"Well, how does it feel like to be a God, Zaynie boy?" asked Michael him flirtingly causing a weird sound from Liam. 

"I thought you like Girls?" gasped Harry shocked. 

"I'm the only one calling him Zaynie" stated Louis poutingly. 

"First of all, I'm pan like Niall" cleared Michael up and nobody seemed to be actually suprised. 

"And second of all, who doesn't like Zayn? I mean look at him" he circled Zayn's face with his hand. 

"He's right. I would marry him on the spot if Harry wouldn't exist" agreed Louis with him. 

"Huh, good to know" frowned Harry. 

"Did you not hear the part where I talked about you?" checked Louis cheekily. 

"Are you saying I'm looking like a God too?" countered Harry. 

"We should stay realistic" replied Louis sassily. 

"Why do I even like you? You're so mean to me" slapped Harry Louis' bum. 

Automatically Zayn was alarmed and searched for any discomfort in Louis' face but as he didn't find anything he sighed in relief and just kept watching them. 

"But you love it. I can see it in your face" smirked Louis knowingly at him. 

"Well, Callum tell me. How does it feel to be the only straight one in the band?" tore Zayn his gaze away from the lovebirds.

"I get all the lady's. And how does it it feel like to be in a band with the foodmonster, this disgunstingly cute couple and your ex?" shot Callum back without thinking about it. The moment it was out he regreted it. 

"Um... well it....". 

"HEY! We're not disgusting. We're adorable, right babe?" exclaimed Louis offended. 

"Yes, you're adorable" Harry smiled at him in love. 

"I want that to" thought Zayn out loud.

"You will" put Liam his hand back on Zayn's. 

"Really?" asked Zayn suprised. 

"I'm sure" smiled Liam surely at him. 

"Maybe Ex wasn't correct, Cal. Could be loud backstage. My Sympathy, Nialler" snickered Mickey evilly. 

"No. Stop. Bad. That's not how I raised you. Now go outside and think about what you did. All of you" scolded Eleanor at the four boys. 

"But...". 

"Now". 

With a lot of grumbling and cursing the boys stood up from the table and with hanging heads they left the cafeteria. Eleanor looked after them with a proud face. Niall patted her shoulder and Sophia pecked her lips. Neither Harry and Lousi nor Liam and Zayn even noticed what happened. 

"Simply impossible" was all Niall had left to say and the three girls agreed. 

After a few seconds Liam and Zayn woke up from their trance and looked over at Niall and the girls. Louis and Harry also decided to join their conversation. All four looked very confused as they noticed the empty spot ot the 5sos boys. 

"Where did they go?". 

Tuesday afternoon after the rehearsal Niall was walking through the city with Shawn. Instead of it being awkward as Niall thought it would they talked a lot and it never got weird and he had to admit that he had a lot of fun. At the moment they were thinking about what they could do next. 

"What do you think of graping my boat and driving to Mako Island?" suggested Shawn and Niall's blood froze in his veins. 

"What about just staying here and eating some ice cream?" said Niall overly enthusiastic. 

"Maybe we will see a mermaid" Shawn didn't let up. 

"I prefer chocolate chip" deadpanned Niall. 

"You're such a lazy and greedy gnom" chuckled Shawn pleased.

"What's wrong with ice cream?" Niall seriously didn't understand. 

"Well, ice cream it is then" shook Shawn his head and went with Niall to an ice cream shop. 

"Do you think mermaids have real families?" wondered Shawn out loud after they paid. 

"Shawn" sighed Niall desperately.

"No really. How does it work?" was Shawn deep in thoughts.

"You don't really think you will see mysterical mermaid when you're out there, right?" made Niall fun of him. 

"Yeah, laugh about me. I know it's sounds silly but it's haunting me in my dreams every day. Everywhere. I just want to understand" sounded Shawn very lost. 

"I get it, okay? You experienced something really strange and want to leave it behind, but haunting fantasy creatures isn't going to help you. Just talk to someone about what you're feeling, what happened, the dreams and together you will find a way to handle it. Maybe talk with me" tried Niall to honestly help Shawn but also protect his friends and himself. 

"I know you're right but there is one last thing I need to do and then I talk to you" said Shawn determined. 

"Do I want to know what it is? You're not calling the Ghostbusters?" tried Niall to joke to cover up his fear. 

"I want to dive back to the boat and take a look at it. Maybe it will help me to find closure. I'll ask Nick if he helps me. As soon as he says yes I'm out there" revealed Shawn his plan to Niall. 

"Okay, if that helps you I won't stop you, not that I could" patted Niall his shoulder. He was sure Nick wouldn't agree so there was no reason to panic. 

Loudly cheering the boys entered the JuiceNet Wednesday after school. It was Liam's birthday and they decided on doing nothing special today because nothing would be good enough. They would just drink something and enjoy each others company. But for Saturday the boys had plans. Plans Liam didn't know about. It was a suprise. 

"Will, a round of drinks for the birthday boy" said Niall joyfully. 

"The usual?" checked Will knowingly. 

"Of course but double. He's 17 now" joked Niall. 

"Well, then the usual. It's on me. Happy Birthday Liam" congratulated Will Liam friendly. 

"Thanks" grinned Liam happily. 

"17. Wow you're old now" mocked Harry him. 

"If I am a old, what about Louis? Are you in love with a Grandpa?" sassed Liam suprisingly. 

"No. Louis is perfect" puffed Harry cutely. 

"Could have guessed that" muttered Liam under is breath. 

"And just so you know, I'm not old. I'm Peter Pan" stated Louis stubbornly. 

"That means you're Wendy, Harry" snickered Zayn.

"Zayn, you're an idiot and got it totally wrong" tapped Louis Zayn on the forehead. 

"Then enlighten me" breath Zayn dramatically. 

"Yes, Peter likes Wendy and there will always be a connection between them but his only true love his Tinkerbell" Louis extended his horizon. 

"So, Harry is a stubborn fairy in a green dress?" cocked Zayn an eyebrow. 

"Yeah, that's pretty much it" Louis couldn't hide his grin. 

"Ey, I don't wear green dresses" threw Harry offended in. 

"But other colours?" hooked Zayn amused. 

"Well, why not? If girls can wear boys clothes. Clothes are genderless" shrugged Harry unimpressed. 

"Wise words, my man" gave Niall him a fist bump. 

"I haven't seen you in a dress before, mmmh" whispered Louis to him which made Harry shudder a little. 

"Here are your drinks" came Niall's mother over to them. 

"Hi Mom, everything's good?" made Niall sure that all was fine. 

"Perfect. No need to worry. So, anyone fancy food?" pointed Maura behind them. 

As the boys turned around they saw Will approaching them with a huge cake with a lot of candles on it in his hands. Together with Maura he started singing Happy Birthday to Liam and the boys joined in after the first state of shock. Liam had tears in his eyes and was absolutely speechless. 

"I couldn't let you have a birthday without a real cake and a Happy Birthday" smiled Will warmly at him.

"Thank you, Will" was Liam deeply touched.  

"You deserve it. Everybody needs love on that special day" pulled Will him into a hug. 

"I don't know what to say" searched Liam for the right words. 

"Just enjoy your cake. It's chocolate" said Will and then went back to work. 

"It's official now. He is not real" was the first thing Zayn could say. 

"Who cares? There is cake in front of us" started Niall giving out the cake. 

Still speechless they ate the cake that tasted absolutely delicious. This moment between them was priceless and totally precious. They would always remember that. 

After a while Niall saw Perrie and Jesy entering the JucieNet looking around for something or someone. He kept staring at them until they turned their head torwards him. Smilingly they came to them at the table. 

"Happy Birthday, Liam. Looks like you have fun" congratulated Perrie him. 

"Thanks. Yeah a lot of fun" thanked Liam her. 

"Jesy" they heard Will happily say. Jesy turned around to him and they fell into each others arms. 

"I'm so happy to see you again" pulled Jesy back from the hug.

"It's good to see you're okay" replied Will. 

"How come you always know everyone?" wondered Niall sceptical. 

"How could he not? I'm Perrie's best friend" answered Jesy as if it would explain everything. 

"Great Reason" snorted Niall sarcastically. 

"Wait, they don't know?" turned Jesy to Perrie. 

"It never came up" said Perrie curtly. 

"What? Can somebody tell me what's going on?" was Niall more confused than ever. 

"Will is my son" Perrie dropped the bomb.

Silence was what followed after that. All five tried to wrap their head around that new information. This was just too much but it kinda explained everything. The wheels were running in their heads and their faces were totally blank. Will was Perrie's son. 

Suddenly Niall's phone beeped and starled everyone. Dazed he took it out of his pocket and looked at the screen. 

From Asshole:

"Just wanted to let you know I'm on my way to the boat with Nick now. After that I would love to talk to you about it because you're the only one who really knows everything. Call you later". 

"Fucking shit" cursed Niall. 

"What's wrong?" Liam wanted to know. 

"Shawn is on his way to Jesy's boat  with Nick. He wants closure or whatever" felt Niall the conflict growing inside of him. 

"What? But why? It's on the bottom of the ocean" Liam coulnd't understand the reason. 

"Why do you even have his number and why does he text you?" found Harry the thing suspicious. 

"He gave it to me" replied Niall dryly. 

"But why is he telling you that?" was Harry still not convinced. 

"Fuck, he almost drowned and is trying to work his way through it. I was the one who he thinks saved him in some way. He just needs someone to talk to" snapped Niall unexpectedly at him. 

"He has Nick" said Harry but the defeat was clearly visible in his face. 

"Whatever. It's just a boat. There is nothing he could find, right?" addresssed Niall Jesy now. 

"Well.... could be that there is a box with old pictures and my necklace" scratched Jesy her neck. 

"What kind of pictures?" asked Louis with a heavy sigh. 

"Of us four in the Moon Pool". 

"Okay. He isn't allowed to see them. I'll take care of it" stood Niall up determined. 

"Woah, slow. What are you planning to do?" hold Zayn him back. 

"I will get it first. I'm faster anyway" let Niall him know. 

"You shouldn't go alone" voiced Liam concern. 

"It's your birthday. It's bad enough that I have to go in the first place. But I saved him so I will get this. Just in and out again. Easy" assured Niall him not very convincingly. 

"Please be careful" pleaded Harry at him. 

"I will. It's just Shawn" said Niall unsurely. 

"Next time we let him drown" joked Zayn forcedly. 

"Haha yeah" faked Niall a laugh before he left. He didn't like that idea. 

As fast as he could he run down the docks and jumped into the water unseen. He swam to the place were the boat had sunken down and immediately spotted it. No Shawn in sight or another boat. Relieved he swam on the boat then inside and searched through all the weird stuff for the bad box. After five minutes he finally found the locked box. Next to it was a little silver box. As he opened it he found the last necklace. He took both boxes in his hands and without taking another look he left the boat again and swam back to the mainland. 

He dried off, took the boxes and went back to the JucieNet. His friends were still waiting with Perrie and Jesy. When they saw him you could acutally hear the big stones falling from their hearts. 

"Oh God, you're alive" fell Louis around his neck. 

"Don't ask. Zayn and Harry made up the scariest scenarios of how you could have died" explained Liam Louis' outburst. 

"Well nothing happened. I'm here, Im alive and I have the box" put Niall the box on the table. 

"Thank you, Niall" thanked Jesy him relieved. 

"It's better when Shawn doesn't see that" was all  Niall said. He wondered what he was doing right now. 

"You protected our secret. This is for you" handed Jesy him her necklace. 

"Really?" Niall couldn't believe it. 

"You deserve it. Besides it's better when it's with her sisters or brothers now" smiled Jesy friendly at him. 

A little bit shaky Niall put the necklace on. His friends smiled at him. Now they were all together. United. 

"I think it's time to leave now" stood Zayn up tiredly. 

"Good idea. I miss my bed" stretched Harry his arms. 

"You mean my bed" pinched Louis his side. 

"Just say yours. You're married anyway" waved Liam them off. 

As Niall stood up again his phone beeped in his pocket. It was Shawn again. 

From Asshole:

"I'm at the docks. Can you come?". 

"That's Shawn. I should probably....." trailed Niall off. 

"Yeah. Go and get this finally over with" nodded Harry at him. 

While his friends left through the one door Niall took the other and went down to the docks. Directly he saw Shawn standing or more like leaning against a tree again. As he came closer Niall's worry grew. Shawn looked almost scared. 

"Mendes, there you are" startled Niall Shawn. 

"Ay, be nice, Horan" placed Shawn a hand over his heart. 

"I'm always nice. So, what's up? Were you at the boat? What happened?" asked Niall and wanted to sound interested. 

"Yeah. I was. Nick and I drove there with my boat and dived down. When I was close enough to see something... I... um..." fiddled Shawn nervously with his fingers. 

"You what?" checked Niall scared. 

"I saw something. A mermaid. He or she was coming out of the boat and then disapeared very fast. I was completely shocked so I left again. Please don't call me crazy now. I'm telling the truth" revealed Shawn to him and Niall had to try really hard not to let everyting show on his face. Shawn actually saw him. 

"And Nick?" croaked Niall out. 

"He didn't see anything. He was afraid of Sharks and went back before it happened" told Shawn him. At least something. 

"Then what are you doing here with me? Call the police, the media. Tell everyone. That's big news and makes you famous over night" said Niall way more rudely than planned. He was shocked. 

"I would never do that" stated Shawn offended. 

"What? Why?" was Niall actually suprised. 

"First of all, nobody would believe me without proof. So why telling someone? And second, there is a reason nobody knows about that. I'm not going to expose him. I'm just happy I know now how I got saved" explained Shawn honestly to him. 

"How do you know it's a he?" raised Niall an eyebrow at him. He hadn't expected Shawn to keep it a secret. 

"He had short blond hair and was shirltess. Don't you think a she mermaid would wear something like a fishy bra?" asked Shawn amused. 

"What do I know? I'm not normally thinking about mermaids next door" snorted Niall. 

"That's all so fucking weird. I can't tell anyone. Nobody would believe me and I don't want people to know. They would just haunt him or worse" paced Shawn up and down while talking to himself. 

"Totally strange" was Niall's only comment. He was absolutely clueless on what to do. What should he tell his friends? They're gonna freak out. 

"Do.... do you believe me?" stopped Shawn in fron of him. A lot of doubt was in his voice. 

Niall just looked at him. In those big brown beautiful puppy eyes that were looking for someone to believe them. Someone to be there when no one else was. His head was conflicted but his heart knew the answer. He had no idea what came over him when he answered Shawn but in that very moment it felt right because it was the truth. 

"I believe in you". 

The kids were leaving the football field while Louis cleared up the balls and stuff. Steve was talking with some parents but Louis' gaze was fixed on his beautiful boyfriend standing on the sidelines waiting for him. Even after those weeks full of love he couldn't believe this was actually happening and Harry was really his. This all seemed lika dream to him and every day he was afraid to wake up and Harry would be gone. But that never happened. He was still here looking absolutley stunning with the sunlight shining on his pretty face. Yes, Louis loved him to pieces. 

"Mind giving me a hand here?" shouted Louis over to Harry. 

Directly Harry came running over to him and helped without hesitation with carrying the stuff back into the store room. A few times he almost stumbled over his one big feet and almost crashed the shelf but he survived and made Louis giggle fondly to himself. His boyfriend was such a clumsy baby but he loved that about him. 

In the meantime most of the parents and kids were gone and Steve was nowhere to be seen. One ball was left on the field. Louis was trying to convince himself to just pretend he haven't seen it and just go and change.  But Harry had other plans. 

"Hazza, what's that about?" groaned Louis as Harry picked the ball up. 

"Aww, is someone tired from standing around? Too tired to kick a ball?" mocked Harry him. 

"I could still kick your balls" sassed Louis back. 

"Sassy sassy but I don't see you doing anything. Are you rusty, Grandpa?" took Harry a few steps back and started running away with the ball. 

"You're dead, Styles" threatend Louis. 

He run after Harry but due to Harry's long legs he was faster than him. Annoyed he cursed under his breath and sped up to steal the ball from Harry. This clumsy baby giraffe wasn't able to actually play footbal decently without falling over his own feet. Close to the goal Harry kicked the ball, almost tripping over it in the process, and the ball flew into the net. 

"Ha, You had no chance against me, Grandpa. I'm too fast" cheered Harry triumphantly. 

"If I were you I would stop that Grandpa thing right now" glared Louis at Harry. 

"And if not?" challenged Harry him. 

"You don't want to know" answered Louis in a deep voice. He had to stop his head from imagining inappropriate things. 

"Come on. Again, but this time we do it right" picked Louis the ball up as Harry just weirdly looked at him. 

"Try to steal it from me" called Louis as he started running away with the bal at his feet. 

"Damn it" cursed Harry and followed Louis. 

As Louis was close to the goal he noticed that Harry had stopped in his tracks and where just staring into Louis' direction. He slowed down a little bit and smirked to himself. Provokantly he stuck out his ass a little bit more and immeditaley heard Harry curse again and sprint over. He noticed Harry's shadow behind him and turned around. Harry was all sweaty and was panting heavily. Louis thought he looked very pretty like that.

The moment of unfocusedness used Harry to slide his foot throuhg Louis' legs and kick the ball away. This caused Louis to loose his balance and whi falling he took a hold on Harry's arm and dragged him down with him. Louis fell on his back and Harry crashed into his chest. 

"Why does this always happen?" wondered Harry with a breathy laugh. 

"Oh this is different than usual" smirked Louis up at him and put his hands on Harry's waist. 

"Are you trying to seduce me to let you win?" leaned Harry closer to him. 

"I would win any time" whispered Louis hotly. 

"You think so?" asked Harry in a raspy voice. 

"I know" winked Louis at him. 

He tightend his grip on Harry's waist and turned them over so that he was on top again. Harry was flushed red and looked really flustered. Louis didn't give him time to think properly again. In the flash of a second Louis attached his lips on Harry's and started sucking on his bottom lip eagerly. Immediately Harry let out a low moan and let Louis in and take control over the kiss. After just a few seconds they were both so deep into it that Louis had his hands tangled in Harry's hair and tuckedn on it. Harry grape Louis' bum harshly which caused both of them to rutter their hips together, letting their clothed cocks meet for a second.  All his blood rushed downwards and Louis had actual trouble to stop but he had to because they were still on a football field. 

"This happens when you don't focus. You shouldn't have stared at my ass for so long and instead focused on running" broke Louis apart from the kiss and didn't recognised his voice any more. 

"I don't know about you, but I prefered this over football, Grandpa" answered Harry in that very deep voice that caused shivers down Louis' body. 

"I told you to stop saying that" growled Louis down at him.

"What if I don't want to?" smirked Harry up at him. 

"Oh you like that, huh? Are you into that kiny stuff? You like Grandpas?" leaned Louis closer to Harry's lips. 

Harry gulped and his eyes darkened even more. Teasingly Louis pressed his hips harder down on Harry and shifted a bit to create friction. Harry bit down on his lip to keep the noises in and was satisfied with himself. 

"I'd prefer if you call me Daddy" whispered Louis into Harry's ear, getting a whimper as an answer. 

Grinningly Louis stood up, took the ball and made his way to the locker room as if nothing happened but he felt the effect still in his pants. Harry still haven't moved as Louis glanced back before going to change. After he changed he locked everything up and went out to Harry again. He was waitng on a bench staring into the void. Louis probably traumatised that poor little boy. He should stop this behaviour right now. 

"Ready to go?" reached Louis for Harry's hand. 

"What about we take a detour?" suggested Harry and took Louis' hand. 

"What do you have in mind?" questioned Louis sceptical. 

"You'll see" shrugged Harry and dragged Louis with him. 

They made their way away from the football place and throught the park. They passed some people they knew from school but they didn't care. When they reached the beach Louis knew what Harry had in mind. Near the rocks they dived in and swam hand in hand through the water. To Louis' suprise Harry didn't took the route to the Moon Pool. They swam with some dolphins and many colourful fish. The reef was stunningly beautiful but nothing compared to Harry for Louis.  

In the end they visited Mako Island but not like they normally would. They swam to the shore, dried off and took a walk along the beach. The sun was going down a little and threw an orange light over the Island and the ocean. Looking at the fogy forest Louis had to lightly laugh. 

"What's so funny, babe?" looked Harry confused at him. 

"Do you remember how we first got here?" wrapped Louis his hands around Harry's neck. 

"How could I ever forget that. This was practically our first day together" put Harry his hands on Louis' waist. 

"And what a day" chuckled Louis and saw that day in his memory. 

Arriving at the island, they got out of the boat and looked around. Heavy fog over the woods, but no bird was heard.

"And what now?" Zayn asked, still visibly frightened.

"Does anyone have a cell phone? This way we can get help then?" Niall suggested.

"My phone is ruined" Harry moaned.

"I left mine at home" Louis just shrugged.

"Wich normal person leaves the house without a mobile phone?" Harry asked horrified.

"Someone who does NOT expect to be stranded on an island during a short walk with a total jerk" Louis said, annoyed.

"Woah, calm down, sassy princess" Harry chuckled.

"Call me princess again and you will regret it".

"Oh really? And what do you wanna do, princess?" Harry challenged Louis.

The anger began to seethe in him. But before it could escalate Niall intervened. "Louis he isn't worth it. We should think about how we proceed."

Slowly, Louis breathed deeply in and out. Calming down again.

"I have my cell phone with me, but I have no reception" Zayn changed the subject.

"Then we have to climb" said Niall plumb.

"You don't really want to go in there" Zayn shuddered, pointing to the woods. But he got no answer.

Niall was already on the way. After a few seconds, Louis followed him. For a moment Niall turned around. "Do you just wanna stand there and stare at the air?". 

"You pissed off so much that day" revealed Louis to Harry. 

"And I really hated your sassy ass" replied Harry grinningly. 

"Lies. You loved my ass" claimed Louis childishly. 

"Still do" breathed Harry out and pecked Louis' lips. 

After that they went further into the woods like they did the very first time. When they reached the rocks at the water they stopped. This was the place Louis ran to at the camping on Full Moon as he was so .... jealous of Niall and Harry. 

"Last time we were here I wanted to kiss you so badly" confessed Harry to Louis. 

"Kiss me now". And that's what they did. Kissing at this special place for them surrounded by their memories. 

 "There were a lot of nice things, just the two of us and nobody else" Harry smiled through his tears.

"That was super cheesy" Louis broke away from the embrace and put his hands on Harry's cheeks.

"But the truth" Harry looked deep into his eyes.

"Never think you don't deserve me. I can not live without you" Louis rubbed his thumb over Harry's cheek.

"And I can not live without you" Harry said with his hands on Louis' waist.

Involuntarily Louis' eyes moved to Harry's lips as close as they were. How much he would like to, but he couldn't. With all his strength he looked for Harry's gaze again, but Harry's eyes were slightly down. It seemed that Harry was also eyeing Louis' lips. But that couldn't be. Nervously, Louis bit his bottom lip, whereupon Harry looked directly at him again and turned slightly red.

Harry looked around for a bit and searched for the entrance of the cave. Louis watched him with an amused smile. "Be careful, love. That's where you fell down last time" warned Louis him while bending down to pick something up. 

"I'm not sure if I'm safe up here" replied Harry distractedly. 

"What do you think? Does my ass look better in my skinny jeans or my football shorts? I look hot in my footbal uniform, don't you think?" kneeled Louis down, presenting his ass to Harry shamelessly. 

"What about withOUT..." started Harry but then it turned into a suprised scream  he fell down the hole again. 

"Just like last time" chuckled Louis to himself and went over to the hole where Liam had a rope attached to be able to leave better. 

"Is everything ok?" Louis called questioningly into the cave.

"Sure, I just fell into a cave and hit my head. I'm fine" Harry glared at him.

"You're really something. Can you come up?" Louis asked anyway.

"No, it's way too steep, you idiot."

Sighing, Louis shook his head. "I'll go down to him and see what I can do from there" he announced.

Niall gasped horrified. "What?".

"None of you will do it. Am I right?" Louis stated. And with that, Louis plunged into the hole. With a crash he landed on the hard ground.

"Wow, you're really a genius. Now we're both stuck down here and I thought you couldn't be more stupid."

"Harry, just shut your mouth for a second so one of us can think" Louis shot back.

A rattling of earth sounded behind them and the next moment Niall fell on Louis.

"You're verycomfortable, Louis. Nice ass by the way" Niall chuckles.

"Sorry Niall, you're not my type" Louis laughed, pushing Niall down.

"Hey, save me that homo fuss! Just for your information, there is no other exit".

"First, stop being a pain in the ass. And second, how do you know that? From lying on the floor?".

"Ugh, I hate you two so much".

"The feelings are mutual" Niall retorted. 

Louis went down into the cave to Harry who was rubbing his head. "Will you ever learn?" helped Louis him up. 

"Probably not" rubbed Harry his elbow. 

"You're hurt, love?" panicked Louis automatically. 

"Not, it's all good. Huh, you were the first to help me down here the first time, you remember?" nudge Harry his shoulder. 

"Yeah, you weren't very thankful. Is Niall's obsession with my ass still some Homo Fuss?" tapped Louis Harry's chin. 

"Oh yeah, totally But now I like it. Am I still a pain in the ass?" wiggled Harry his eyebrows weirdly. 

"Hell yes you are, but maybe the right kind" winked Louis at him and then disapeared into the tunnel that leads to the Moon Pool. 

As they walked through the opening they couldn't believe their eyes. Right infront of them lay a grotto. Surrounded by volcanic rocks, the water glittered in the dim moonlight.

"Wow" Louis breathed out breathlessly.

"Madness" Niall whispered. 

"It feels just like the first time" marvelled Louis as the Moon Pool lay in front of them. 

"But everything has changed" hugged Harry him from behind. 

"You remember that one moment that turned our lifes upside down?" snuggled Louis closer to him. 

"Yeah. It was magical and right there" pointed Harry at the water.

"Jump in" faced Louis him. "Jump in" nodded Harry at him and hand in hand they jumped into the water. 

The moment they were all in the middle of the grotto in the water, the light of the full moon fell down through the cone of the volcano. The water immediately started to bubble. Sparks of light flew through the air. The boys looked confused and sceptical at each other. Was this normal for water?  

Harry and Louis were right in the middle of the Moon Pool. Louis had his arms wrapped around Harry's neck and Harry's hand were on Louis' waist. They stared deeply into each others eyes before attaching their lips togehter. Their blue and green tails were tanlged together and there was no space left between them. The moment their tongues met they dived down into the water and continued kissing underwater. Louis played with Harry's hair while Harry stroked up and down Louis' back. It felt like Underwater Love. 

At some point Harry ended up sitting on that step at the edge of the Moon Pool with Louis sideways on his lap. The water dripped down on Louis' face and chest and he felt hot all over. 

"Beautiful" whispered Harry when he looked at Louis. 

Immediately Louis kissed him again. The sight of Harry with wet hair sticking to his forehead and water dripping down on his stoned and muscled chest drove him crazy. This was for sure the hottest make out session they ever had in that one month but for Louis it still wasn't enough. He felt like dragging Harry out of this damned Moon Pool and actually doing it with Harry here at the edge of the Moon Pool. Here where it all started. 

He shook that thought away and broke the kiss. Panting heavily he leanded his forehead against Harry's and just hugged him tight. His heartbeat was so fast he feared he would die any second. Out of instinct Louis turned his hand in a semicircle so that a bubble of water rose in the air. He twitched his hand a little and deformed the water. Now it had the shape of a heart. 

Seeing that Harry pampered Louis' face, especially his one cheek, his neck and his shoulder with short little kisses which made Louis giggle cutely. With one hand Harry drew a heart into the sand next to him and wrote H+ L into it. Louis' heart warmed a lot at that sight and he kissed Harry again. This time a short happy kiss. 

"Never thought being in love would be that great" admitted Harry, looking at Louis with the biggest heart eyes. 

"It's always great to be loved and to be in love, but what we have is special" rubbed Lousi their noses together in an eskimo kiss. 

"You're special" breathed Harry against his lips. 

In that very moment Louis was so close to saying those magic three words but he held himself back. Not because he wasn't sure. He was more than sure. But there was still one thing left to do before he coud give himself in completely. He wanted to be one hundred percent honest and decided it was about time. But before telling Harry he needed to talk with someone. 

 "Zayn, no! That's not fair" exclaimed Louis, stomach hurting from too much laughter. 

"Just accept that I'm winning" pushed Zayn him aside. 

"You're a fucking cheater, Zayn Malik" Louis stomped with his foot on the floor sniffy. 

"You're just bad at Fifa, Louis Tomlinson" mocked Zayn his voice. 

"That's it. You're done".

"Ouch" gasped Zayn as Louis threw his controller at him and then jumped on top of him. 

They wrestled and tickled each other on the bed until they fell from it and crashed on the floor with a loud bang. This caused them to laugh even more and almost choke on their laughter. When they couldn't breath any more they kicked each other a last time and then just lay next to each other on the floor, staring at the celling. 

"Okay, maybe I cheated" admitted Zayn sheepishly. 

"I know but thanks for the Confirmation" winked Louis cheekily at him. 

As Zayn's phone beeped they both groaned and stood up. Zayn graped his phone and then threw himself on the bed next to Louis. 

From Nialler:

"Hailee is coming too tomorrow. Just asked her. Just wanted to tell ya".

"Niall just texted me he invited Hailee. I'm shocked" faced Zayn Louis now. 

"You know, this means there will be only couples and couples-to-be. Eleanor and Sophia, Harry and I, Niall and Hailee, you ...... and Liam" nudged Louis softly Zayns' shoulder. 

"Great. This will not be awkward. Third wheeling at its best" snorted Zayn sulky. 

"And what about Liam?" hooked Louis carefully. 

"What do you mean?" asked Zayn confused. 

"You have been closer again lately" answered Louis, unsure of what to say. 

"So? That doesn't mean a thing. You know how things ende between us. I'm just happy he is acting normally again" shrugged Zayn indifferent. 

"And you're not feeling anything when he's there?" checked Louis kowingly. 

"I know what you're trying to do, but it won't work. Yes, Liam is his normal self again but for how long? Will he change again? And even if not, it's not the same any more" sounded Zayn very sad. 

"I understand, but what if he has still feelings for you and wants you back?" asked Louis curiously. 

"He doesn't and I wouldn't go back to him. Maybe he is nice again, but the problem stays the same. I don't want to be denied again. I don't want him to be ashamed of me. I want proud boyfriend" confessed Zayn honstely to him. 

"Believe me, I really understand that and I hate what he did, but what if he wasn't really himself and didn't realise what he did?". 

"Doyou know something I don't?" became Zayn suspicious.

"Actually I'm not allowed to tell you because I shouldn't know either, but Harry told me stuff that Liam told Niall and it could explain some things to you" scratched Louis his neck awkwardly. 

"Will it help me to understand or even forgive Liam?" Zayn wanted to know. Louis just nodded. "Then tell me, please". 

"Well okay, but I keep it short, because it's not my place to tell. Liam should do that. Okay, in short: It looks like Liam's father is the key to everything. His pressure on Liam is massive. He wants him to be the perfect son with straight A's, a beautiful girlfriend and all that stuff. He doesn't like Liam being in the band but he is planning on telling his father that he wants to do music. This will be a lot of drama becausse his father wants him to be an architect like himself. He's never home and doesn't care about Liam's feelings, but he was there unexpectedly a while ago and that's why Liam changed so drastically. Cheryl was a distraction and a try to please his father. He didn't stop you from breaking up wtih him because he wants you to be happy and he didn't realise how much he hurt you until it was too late" told Louis Zayn everything he knew from Harry. 

"He...he didn't wanted.... to break up?" croaked Zayn out with tears in his eyes. 

"No, Zayn. He didn't but he saw what he did and knew it was too late and you deserve more. That's why he let you go" lay Louis his hand on Zayn's knee. 

"I knew his father was never there and wanted him to be overly good but I didn't knew it was that bad. I should have known that. Why did I not know?" cried Zayn silently. 

"He didn't wanted anyone to know". 

"I could have helped him. I could have....". 

"Could have what?" interupted Louis Zayn rambling. "There is nothing you could've done. Liam is the one to do someting about it. No one else". 

"And he wants to?" sniffled Zayn. 

"Looks like it but it will probs take a while" smiled Louis sadly at him. 

"So he isn't against gay PDA?" realised Zayn the dimensions of it all. 

"Not in the slightest". 

"I'm an idiot" cursed Zayn himself. 

"No you're not" assured Louis him gently. Zayn sighed and hid his face in his hands. 

"Zayn?" lifted Louis his chin up so he could look into his eyes. "Do you still have feelings for Liam?". 

"Yes, I do" admitted Zayn with a heavy sigh. 

"Then there's only one thing left to do. Get your man back, Zaynie" encouraged Louis him. 

"But how after everything that happened?" frowned Zayn helpless. 

"Tomorrow we're at the Fair. That's the perfect place for romantic moments" grinned Louis at him. 

"Well, while we're at it, how are you and Harry?" changed Zayn the topic. 

"Bad try, but okay. I get it. Well, everything is perfect" decided Louis to not bother Zayn any further. 

"Really? I have the feeling there is something you want to tell me" raised Zayn an eyerbrow at him. Damn it, Zayn. 

"Okay, you got me there. It's just.... everything is good, really. Just this one tiny thing is still left" Louis couldn't find the right words to describe what he meant. 

"What tiny thing? You mean ... that?" Zayn wanted to know. 

"No, I mean not really but it's interdependent.... somehow". 

"Now I'm confused" stated Zayn with a worried expression. 

"There is one scar left. One scar that I have to show him, literally show him, before anything, whatever it might be, could happen. I have to let him in on my weakest part of my soul. I just hope he won't run away or isn't attracted to me any mo when he sees it. I don't want to see the realisation in his  eyes when he notices how ugly I really am. But I have to show him and I want to... soon" let Louis Zayn in on his last weakness. 

"You're not ugly, you hear me? And Harry will never run away from you no matter what it is" stated Zayn seriously to make Louis realise that. 

"The scar.... is it a visible scar....like those?" stroked Zayn gently over Louis' wrist. Louis nodded lightly. "Is it bad?" asked Zayn further and Louis nodded again with his head hung low. 

"Are they...." trailed Zayn off and glanced down at Louis' thighs for a second before looking back into his eyes. The answer was clearly visible there. 

"Louis, listen to me. Harry will love you, no matter what. Nothing can ever change that. It's a part of you and certainly doesn't make you ugly, you understand?". Looking into Zayn's eyes Louis believed him every word. A bit more relieved Louis nodded at Zayn. 

"Good. And besides, you have time for that. First telling him and much later showing him. It's not like you actually already want to....". 

"Yes" interupted Louis Zayn shyly and kept his eyes down, fixed on his socks. 

"Wait what? You serious?" dropped Zayn's jaw to the ground. 

"More serious than ever. I don't know.... it just... I.....it just feels right" said Louis a little unsure. 

"Are you really sure about this? You know Harry has no problem with waiting and you've been through a lot" wanted Zayn to make sure. 

"I know all that and I would never just jump into it but in the last days it feels right. I don't know how to explain that. I just know. We took it very slow and I love that. Harry was always gentle with me and never forced me to do anything. I know he would never hurt me. It's just... I like when he touches me and when we're close to each other. I thought about it a lot. I dream about it over and over again. I really want to and I didnt knew I could actually feel the need to do it. I just know I'm freaking ready..... finally" revealed Louis everything that was going through his head to Zayn. 

"I'm actually so damn proud of you. Is it weird to say that when you're about to fuck your boyfriend? I don't care. I'm proud" hugged Zayn him overly proud. 

"Um thanks, you weirdo" patted Louis Zayn's back.

"No, I mean. I still remember the first time we talked that openly about sex. You told me you never touched yourself and now look at you. It makes me happy to see how you deal with your past and you're finally at a really good point in your life" smiled Zayn happily at him. 

"Thanks, I'm kinda happy myself. Sure, it will always be a part of me but now I'm able to finally fully move on. Now the only question left is, if Harry is ready too. But I would wait for him forever" admitted Louis. 

 "Remember that I told you Harry and I had a weird sex conversation at the Moon Pool?" asked Zayn with a big grin. 

"Yeah why?" looked Louis confused at him. 

"He is so going to kill me, but I don't care. He asked me about gay sex that day" chuckled Zayn. 

"He what?" exclaimed Louis shocked. 

"You heard me. He asked me everything. About Top and Bottom, stretching someone out, stuff like that. I never saw someone be that interested and confused at the same time. I told him to google it and watch stuff online and Niall told him to read fanfictions. So.....yeah, was a very awkward day but it brought as closer together even if it was very weird" told him Zayn about that day. 

"So, he was actually interested in it?" tried Louis to understand. 

"Hell yeah but also very overwhelmed. So I understand why he said he wasn't ready too. It's all very knew to him as you know. This will be very special for both of you so it's important that you both want it. I'm sure it will be perfect" became Zayn softer now. 

"I hope so but first I have to let him in completely. The last scars" let Louis out a heavy sigh. 

"Don't worry so much. It's Harry. He loves you". 

"And I love him" confessed Louis absently. 

In that moment someone knocked at the door and the next moment Jay came into the room. The boys sat up straight and looked at her. 

"Oh Louis, I wanted to ask you something?" addressed Jay her son. 

"Shoot" jumped Louis on his spot on the bed. 

"The girls and I were planning on driving into that one Fun Park thing. That big one with all the wateslides. They want to know if Harry and you are coming with us?" asked Jay. 

"Mom, I...". 

"He can't" bursted Zayn out. Louis and Jay looked askingly at him. 

"Liam's birthday party thing is tomorrow and he needs to be there. Liam's parents aren't even hin town and didn't congratulate him. This is important for him and we all need to be there for him" came Zayn to the rescue and it wasn't even a lie. 

"And besides, Harry and I are way too old for that" ruined Louis the credibility. 

"Oh really?" raised Jay an eyebrow at Louis who grinned sheepishly at her. 

"I understand that. Be there for Liam. It's a shame his parent forgot his birthday. Shower him with love and send him mine too. We'll go without you" believed Jay them. 

"We will and I hope you have fun. It's say I can't go" sighed Louis with real sadness in his voice. 

"Another time. Be there for your friend. Well, Ieave you two alone" closed Jay the door behind her. 

"That was close" breathed Zayn out and fell backwards on the bed. 

"This is the downside of it" lay Louis down next to him. 

"Tell me about it". 

For the rest of the evening they played Fifa again without a lot of cheating and ate unhealty food. They laughed and cracked jokes every two minutes until it was time for Zayn to leave and Harry to come home from his day with Liam. Everybody had their thoughts on tomorrow's day. 

-----------------------A/N-------------------------------------------------------

So... first I thought this would be too short but look at it now. Before I wrote the last two scenes I had around 3450 words..... now it's 8750.....

Thoughts on Shawn and Niall? What will happen?

Will is Perrie's son....who would have thought that...

So, Zayn still has feelings for Liam and knows now... are they getting back together now?

Louis thinks he's ready after he showed Harry his last scar. What is it? Is he ready?

Please vote and comment what you think. Tell me what you want to happen. 

I love you all so much <3
