Louis ducked his head as he weaved through the hallway, trying to avoid Ed Sheeran, who was laughing with his group of friend just a few lockers ahead.

Louis winced when he heard his name. He popped his head up, smiling falsely at Ed, who waved him over. Louis shook his head, pointing towards his locker. Ed moved forward and Louis groaned on the inside.

"Louis," Ed greeted as he slung an arm over Louis's shoulders.

"We aren't friends," Louis whispered, blue eyes darting around in search for Harry.

"Louis, please-"

"Oh, there's my boyfriend! I'll see you tonight!" Louis said, wiggling away from Ed and speed walking towards Harry, who smiled when he saw Louis's tiny body making it's way towards him.

"Hey, baby," Harry said rather loudly, puling Louis in for a hug. "We're gonna get ready at my house, yeah? We'll pick you up some clothes on the way?"

Louis nodded, reaching up to peck Harry's lips and then he took Harry's hand as they made their way outside.

"Ed won't leave me alone," Louis grumbled, watching as the ginger lad moved quickly past them, avoiding Louis's glare.

Harry raised an eyebrow, glancing at Louis. "Maybe he fancies you."

Louis scratched his wrist, avoiding eye contact. "I don't think so. Maybe I'm just paranoid."

"So are you going to tell me what once happened between you two?" Harry asked as he opened the car door for Louis.

"It's not really a huge secret or anything," Louis replied. "We used to be best friends and now we aren't."

"That can't be all." Harry slid into the driver's seat, starting his engine and pulling out.

"It's no big deal," Louis whispered, watching Harry drive towards Louis's house.

"You obviously had an important reason and it must've been something he did considering he's trying to win you back," Harry reasoned.

"How do you always do that?"

"Do what?"

"You can read anyone as if they were your Sunday paper," Louis said with his eyes wide in amusement.

"I don't know about that exactly," Harry chuckled. He pulled into Louis's drive, dropping the conversation and allowing Louis to get out.

"Lou?"

"Yeah? I'm going to pack a bag."

"Do you want to stay the night at my house?" Harry asked, watching Louis's facial expressions turn from confused to soft.

"Really? You don't like staying the night together that often."

"The truth is I'm scared you'll wake up with a boner and I'll have to witness it," Harry said with a solemn expression.

Louis burst into giggles and Harry cracked a smile.

"I can sleep in another room, Harry."

"No. I'm not going to treat you any different just because you're gay. That's wrong and I'd be hypocritical," Harry insisted.

With a smile, Louis closed the door and went to pack.

"There's Ed," Louis mumbled, spotting the ginger in the ticket like.

"And there's Ian," Harry added, lacing his fingers with Louis's and walking over to the small group.

"Hey," Louis said with an extremely fake smile. Ed offered a genuine one back. "Hey, you two. Are you ready to see Pitch Perfect 2? I know you like musicals."

Harry snorted and Louis elbowed the taller boy.

"Yeah, that sounds great," Louis mumbled.

"Oh, Harry, you must not know everyone here," Ed said quickly, gesturing towards the small group.

"This is Ian-"

"I know Harry," Ian said with a smirk.

"Okay... This is Eve," Ed introduced a tiny girl with light brown skin, long and light brown hair, green eyes, and small facial features. She waved with a shy smile.

"I'm Arline." A tall girl with long dark brown hair, amber eyes, pale skin, and a red-lipped smile.

"My name is Brennan." A well-built guy with shaggy brown hair and blue eyes.

"Vance." A tall, brown-skinned guy with beady eyes and a varsity jacket.

"I'm Marleen." A very pretty girl with curly and dark hair, a fair skin tone, hazel eyes, and a curvy body.

"Well, I'm Harry," the tall lad said with a grin, trying his hardest to keep in his comments about the pretty girl.

"I adore your skirt," Louis said, motioning towards Arline's navy blue, flower lace skirt. "It's super cute."

"Thanks," Arline said with a smile. "Your Vans are adorbs."

Louis looked down at his silver glitter Vans, smiling shyly. "Thank you."

Harry wrapped arm around Louis's shoulder, leaning down to kiss his feathery hair.

"You two are the cutest couple," Eve said quietly. "When Harry kissed you in the hallway that first time, I just knew you two would get together."

Louis giggled as felt Harry squeeze his shoulder.

"It was definitely a surprise," Marleen said, glancing at the couple as they moved up in line. They were next. "Harry's just so... I didn't expect you to be gay. When you came out at Ed's party, I nearly called you a liar, but you and Louis look like you belong together."

Louis tensed before shifting awkwardly.

"I think it's adorable how you started dressing all girly and stuff as if Harry persuaded you to be yourself," Arline said with a brilliant smile.

"That's exactly what happened," Louis spoke, looking up at Harry. Louis was taken aback when Harry leaned down and pecked his lips.

"Okay, we're up," Brennan said, pointing in front of them.

Ed, who was oddly silent, tripped forward and paid for their tickets and then they all headed inside.

Harry bought a popcorn and a soda to share with Louis while everyone else bought their own snacks. The group continued into the theater, sitting together. Louis got caught between Harry and Eve, which he figured was the best he could get. Arline wasn't too bad, but Marleen didn't really seem to like him. And sitting beside Ed was a definite red light.

The movie started and Harry and Louis shared the popcorn, occasionally feeding one another, causing the girls to giggle- even Marleen.

"You guys are the cutest," Eve said with a small laugh when Harry shoved a handful of popcorn in Louis's mouth, resulting in some of it falling into his lap.

Louis giggled as well, sending Harry a fake glare. He tuned towards Eve and ended up locking eyes with Ed who was sipping from his drink and staring at Louis.

Ed said something about using the restroom and got up.

"I've got to go as well," Louis said quickly, standing up and following Ed, ignoring the stare Harry was training on him.

Ed and Louis walked side by side to the washroom in complete silence. Ed opened the door for them and they stepped in, Louis immediately heading to the large stall in the back. Ed knew to follow.

Louis locked the stall, turning to face Ed, looking frustrated.

"Why are you doing this to me!?" Louis hissed, waving his hands around in anger.

"Doing what?" Ed asked, furrowing his eyebrows together.

Louis cursed to himself because Ed was fucking cute and it wasn't fair what Ed was doing to him.

"You can't just step back into my life, Ed. It doesn't work that way."

"Why can't you give me a chance?" Ed asked, stepping towards Louis, who stepped back into the door.

"I'm with Harry," Louis said quickly, panicking as Ed moved closer.

"Oh, please. You don't look at Harry the way you use to look at me. You hardly look at Ashton that way, but you do give him some attention."

"Ed-"

"I know what you're up to with Harry."

"You do?" Louis whispered, watching Ed carefully.

"'Course I do. He's the only available gay do you took a chance to try to make yourself happy."

That was so wrong.

"Louis... I shouldn't have done what I did to you, but I was scared."

"I was scared, too!" Louis said shakily, trying not to cry. "I was so scared that you wouldn't want me anymore and, guess what!? You didn't!"

"Lou," Ed said softly, reaching out to touch Louis, who flinched as Ed's fingers brushed his cheek. "Please forgive me. Give me a chance."

"So, what? Are you gay?" Louis snapped.

Ed let out a breathy laugh, smiling. "I am."

Louis shifted, cracking a small smile. "What made you decide that?"

Ed smiled back, gripping Louis's shoulder. "You."
