Chapter 1

Part 2

~"On the first page of our story, the future seemed, so bright"~


I woke to the smell of bacon. I had forgotten what it was like, waking up to a Liam Payne breakfast. I rubbed my eyes before lazily turning to look at the clock. "Ugh!" I groaned. 'nine thirty' I whined internally. I had also forgotten that Liam Payne was a morning person. And I personally found it disgusting! Quickly I [quite literally] rolled out of bed and stumbled my way towards the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and sighed as I started my morning routine. At the end of it I made a thorough inspection of my face for any spots. I groaned a relieved 'thank you' to whoever was responsible in gracing me with clear skin before stepping over to the shower to run the water.

When I was through washing my hair I stood there a minute just to bask in the hot temperature of the water and relax. While I waited for the soap to lather I let my mind wander off to the previous night. I remembered Harry, and our date for the park later. 'Harry.' I sighed closing my eyes. For a second I just let my thoughts roam where they may about Harry. His luscious curls, gorgeous eyes, his pouty lips..

I felt a familiar heat pooling in the pit of my stomach at the thought of Harry's perfectly sculpted lips. Not wanting the moment to end I started thinking about other things to do with Harry. Like his perfectly toned tattoo covered body. Or his cute little bum.

I moaned at the image of me and Harry, nibbling his bottom lip, scattered love bites staining that porcelain skin. I sighed and wrapped a hand around my shaft stroking gently, Harry moaning in approval. A throaty groan dripped out at the thought of me deep throating Harry's presumably gorgeous cock, his eyes glazed over in pure lust, screaming out in pure ecstasy. I bit my cheek, drawing blood to suppress the [more than a little desperate] "Harry!" I wanted to scream before after cumming hard in my hands. I closed my eyes, leaning against the wall as I waited for my vision to clear. I blinked a few times, to rid myself of the few blotches of color invading my vision before rinsing off and stepping out of the shower. If one thing's for sure, I couldn't wait to see Harry today..


I walked into the kitchen smiling when I saw Liam slaving over the stove trying to get his mickey mouse shaped pancakes just right before adding the chocolate chips.

"Morning Li" I mumbled, draping my arms around his chest.

"Morning Lou" he said placing a kiss to the side of my head.

I smiled at how maternal and domestic the gesture was before releasing my arms from him. "Careful Li." I warned,picking up a mickey head that had gotten the chance to cool, off the stack on the counter, biting into it childishly. "Your fond is showing.." I finished, waving my half eaten mickey in his face.

He scrunched his nose in disapproval, revealing just how badly he was itching to remind me of my manners but deciding against it in the realization that his words would go all but unheard.

"Hey Li?" I asked as we sat down to breakfast. "Hm?" he answered, not daring to speak with a mouthful of mouse. "I was wondering if you would be okay to be on your own for a few hours? Me and Harry've got a date at noon, and I probably won't be back till around three.." I said purposely shoving another bite in about halfway through. Earning a knowing scowl from "Payne the Proper".

He nodded, "Sure I'll be fine for a couple of hours. Where're you two crazy kids heading off to?" he asked. "No where too fancy," I shrugged. "just the park.."

"Well you'd better start getting ready then. Wouldn't want to keep the poor chap waiting on the first date.." he said picking up our plates.

"It's only a quarter past ten!" I whined. He turned and raised an eyebrow at me, "Louis, need I remind you of the time you made me wait two hours to go the market because you had to shower, get dressed and do your hair!" he reminded me. I pouted, "Oh Liam I hardly think that's-" "Or would you prefer to remember the time you had to spend forty five minutes doing your hair in order to go pick up the mail from downstairs?" he cut me off.

I bit my lip in defeat, "I suppose a little jumpstart won't hurt.." I said before running towards my room.


'Done! With twenty five minutes to spare! That's a new self record.' I smiled as I admired the finished product. I decided on an old plain grey T-shirt, with black skinny jeans, a black beanie, and light grey toms.

I plopped down on the couch next to Li to watch some boring television when I heard my phone bing. I looked down and saw a message from Harry,

'Hey Lou ;) I'll be there soon I got a surprise for you..'

I smiled as I quickly texted back a reply,

'Hey! and Hope so :) and ooh what is it!?'

'Can't say you'll have to wait and see ;)'

I smiled before realizing something,

'Hey I never gave you my address..How do you know where you're going?'

'I've got a friend who lives in your building said you two were pals, gave me your flat number..'

I sat up,

'Really? What's his name?'

'Niall. Irish bloke who doesn't quite know when to shut his yap but it makes you love him all the more? x)'

I laughed out making Liam jump beside me before replying.

'Oh yeah! I know him! We chat on the days I bother to get the mail! Nice chap.. :)'

'Yeah he really is..Anyway I'm here, but I can just wait for you out front if you like'

'Yeah sure that works, be right down! :)'

I typed back before getting up and heading towards the door.

"Seeya Li!" I shouted, slamming the door in my haste to get down stairs as fast as humanly possible.


Louis walked out and saw Harry standing next to the coolest motorcycle he'd ever seen. "Hey Harr-Woah!" he gaped. "Hello to you too.." Harry said, smirking with pride. "Is that yours Harry?" Louis said voice dripping with pure admiration. Harry smiled, "It's beautiful isn't it? built it myself" he paused to give it a once over, "One of a kind, you'll never see another like it.." he said like a proud father.

Louis shook his head, smiling in utter disbelief; "I can't believe you built this..It's beautiful Harry.." he said reaching out to touch the leather upholstery. Harry shrugged, "It wasn't easy, it was hard to find time to keep working on it, what with the band and all.." he trailed off. Louis nodded understandingly, "Well I am officially impressed.." he said happily.

Harry smiled, "Then it was worth the trouble.." he said catching Louis' eye. Louis shivered, his mind going back to earlier that morning in the shower and the night before at the club all at once. It took a second for Louis to realize he was staring, "Uh-So what did you want to do.." he asked nervously looking anywhere but directly at Harry. Harry smiled fondly, "Well I was thinking we could stop by the ice cream parlor and grab some cones before heading down to the park.." he said. Louis nodded, "Sounds good.." he said finally regaining the necessary strength to look at him.

"Great" Harry said climbing on the bike handing Louis the only helmet. Louis raised a brow, "Where's your helmet?" he asked. Harry shrugged, "You can wear it.." he said. Louis shook his head,"Louis just-" "No Harry it's your bike, you should wear the helme-" Louis cut off when he felt the helmet slide over his head. He reached up to take it off when Harry caught his hand in his own, Louis looked up to see Harry smiling fondly at him, "Just humor me?" he said.

Louis sighed, before swinging his leg around and sitting behind Harry, to his embarrassment his legs could barely reach the foot placement. Only his toes were firmly pressed against it. Just then Harry grabbed his hands and wrapped his arms firmly against his stomach, "Hold on tight.." he smirked. Louis was going to say something about 'cheesy one liners' when Harry sped off and Louis held on for dear life.

All the joy rides he'd taken with Zayn on his Harley and not once had he been confined to a helmet. [Liam would be mortified] And he certainly never went this fast. Louis suddenly had the sneaking suspicion his 'Bradford bad boy' had been holding out on him.

Louis looked up, mumbling things about 'Prince Payne and the Peasant' when he caught sight of Harry in the side mirror. He looked like a damn supermodel. His hair flowing in the wind, lips cracked in a pleasant smile. Harry was undeniably the most beautiful person Louis had ever seen.


At the Ice Cream Parlor Louis immediately rips off the helmet, huffing things about 'damn fringe' and 'stupid safety precautions'. After they each ordered their ice cream, [Harry having chosen Rockey Road , and Louis having chosen cookie dough]

Luckily the Parlor is across from the park so they can enjoy their deserts. When they reach a tree with satisfactory shade they sit and talk.

Louis holds back a laugh as he looks at Harry and sees he's gotten chocolate all over his face. "Uhm Harry you've-" he cuts off and bursts into a fit of laughter as Harry turns toward him revealing a tin marshmallow stuck to the tip of his nose, "Hold-Hold still!" he chirps between giggles, reaching into his pocket and taking out his phone. "This a moment worth remembering.." he giggled as he took a picture, smiling down at it afterwards. Harry smiled, wiping the ice cream off his face and onto the back of his sleeve.

"Oh I almost forgot.." he said, reaching into his back pocket and pulling out a CD case. "Here's the covers we've done so far.." he said handing it to Louis. Louis flipped it over, seeing a list of songs some he'd never heard others he was curious to hear. "Thanks Harry..you know I've just realized, I've pretty much been going on about myself the entire time..So how about you take a turn now.." he said feeling guilty for not asking him sooner.

Harry went stiff, "Well there's not really much of anything to say.." he said awkwardly tugging on a few strands of grass. Louis' head cocked, "What do you mean? You seem fascinating to me.." he said trying to coax him into talking. "I mean there's not much to say.." he said reluctantly. Louis frowned slightly, nodding "So, it's a mystery then?" he said. Harry frowned, "Yeah, something like that.." he mumbled turning his attention back to the ground. Louis nodded, before tapping Harry's leg with his foot, "I like mysteries.." he smiled. Harry smiled back in surprise.

Louis looked at Harry, he saw his dimples and his kindness and he thinks he knows enough about Harry for now. His thoughts are interrupted by a booming voice, "Any volunteers? Any one at all?"

Louis' brows furrowed, "What's he goin' on about?" he asked getting up and walking towards the man. Harry followed interested in what the man was in need of volunteers for. "Come on Ladies and Gentlemen, all we need is one volunteer! How bout' you ma'am no? Okay..You!"

"What do you need a volunteer for?!" Louis shouted curiously. "We need a volunteer to perorm a song for us any song at all!" Louis smiled, "Harry! You should volunteer!" he shouted. Harry shook his head, "No-" "No Harry think of it! All these people will hear you and it'll be like free advertising for your band! It's full proof!" he chirped. Harry looked at how excited Louis was and, if it meant free advertisement..he sighed as he raised his hand, "I'll do it!.." he shouted.

"Thank you, young man! And what would you like to sing for us today?"

Harry paused as thousands of songs ran through his mind, finally he decided on one.

"Can I play, Chase Coy's If the moon fell down tonight?.." he asked.

"Course! My favorite! Excellent choice! Here's the guitar.."

Harry sighed as he sat on the stool and tuned the guitar.

"I wanna dedicate this song, to a new friend of mine..this is for you Lou.." he smiled.

He took a deep breath before strumming the acoustic, the light melody turned muscle memory as he pours himself into every note.

"Every time I see your smile, It makes my heart beat fast...

And though it's much too soon to tell, I'm hoping this will last."

Louis gaped as he heard the lyrics pour out of Harry, every soft note perfect and soothing, like a lullaby. The dedication alone was enough to make him blush but the lyrics were that much more. He felt the honesty of every word Harry sang and felt the same. He was now more than just curious to listen to Harry's covers.

"Cause' I just always wanna have you right here by my side..

The future's near, but never certain. At least stay here, for just tonight?

I must've done something right, to deserve you in my life;

I must've done something right along the way..."

Louis felt his heart squeeze as the words ran through him, he was overwhelmed with emotion. Especially since Harry refused to look at anything besides him and the inside of his eyelids.

"I just can't get you off my mind; and why would I even try?

Even when I close my eyes, I dream about you all the time...

Cause' I just always wanna have you right here by my side..

The future's near, but never certain. So please, stay here for just tonight...

I must've done something right, to deserve you in my life;

I must've done something right along the way..."

Harry took a deep breath looking at Louis' beautiful blue eyes that he wished he could swim in before closing his eyes to concentrate on making the next lines sound as genuine as possible.

"And even if the moon fell down tonight,

there'd be nothing to worry about at all.

Because, you make the whole world shine!

As long as you're here, everything will be, alright..."

Louis' breath hitched as he heard the emotion behind Harry's words, for a second he questioned whether or not to trust it, but the way Harry looked at him when he opened up his eyes obliterated any doubt he'd had.

"I must've done something right, to deserve you in my life;

I must've done something right along the way..."

Harry snapped out of his daze when he heard a loud noise. It took him a second to realize it was the sound of applause. He felt a smile creeping up, quickly he looked to Louis and found him whistling and shouting his name.

"Well you definitely got some pipes there man! You belong to a group or something?"

Harry nodded speaking into the microphone, "Yeah, I'm the lead singer of a band called The Sirens"

The man nodded, "Well folks if I were you I'd keep an eye out for any gigs this young man might be playing cause he has got some talent am I right? Lets give it up for him Ladies and Gentlemen!"


When they reach Louis' building Louis still hadn't quite calmed down yet. "Harry you really were amazing I mean you do realize how amazing you were right?" he asked tugging off the helmet. Harry smiled, "Glad you thought so.." he said. Louis' mouth dropped, "Harry-wait what's your last name again?" "Styles." "HARRY BLOODY STYLES.Do not dare tell me that you don't think you were anything short of incredible because you were not!" he scolded pointing his finger at the taller boy. Harry laughed, "Alright Alright I give I was incredible!" he mock surrendered. Louis nodded, "And don't you forget it."he said poking Harry in the chest.

Harry sighed as he watched Louis fuss with his fringe for the thousandth time, "Louis-" "Damn thing won't go right-" "Louis!" Harry said enveloping Louis' small hands in his own and bringing him towards him. "Leave it..you look beautiful.." he said softly. Louis' breath caught as he laced his fingers with Harry's lowering them.

Louis sensed Harry's hesitance and decided he wanted to kiss him.

NOW

He leaned forward catching Harry's lips and tangling a hand in his hair. Their bodies moved together in sync with the other like a dance. Harry pressed closer, cupping Louis' face in his hand before pulling away and resting their foreheads together.

They didn't know how to explain it, it was like something had snapped inside of them when they kissed. Like something in them changed and he would never be the same again, but Louis figures it was worth it to kiss Harry. And have Harry kissing him back.

Harry figures anything is worth to be with Louis.

Louis sighs, "I should go..I got a friend upstairs waiting for me.." he said sadly.

Harry swallowed, "I should get back to my flat, I have to set up before the lads show up for practice.." he said.

Harry brings his hands back up to Louis' face, admiring Louis' lips. How perfect they are. He presses one soft gentle kiss against them before reluctantly pulling away.

"Goodnight Lou.." he whispered sweetly before turning around and getting on his bike and riding away.

"Goodnight..Hazz.."


When Louis finally gets upstairs he expects to simply get dressed and go to bed, but ofcourse 'prince of payne' is waiting up.

"Louis you knob! You were supposed to be home eight hours ago! Where have you been!? I was worried sick!"

Louis rolled his eyes, he was way too exhausted for this..

"Sorry I'm late mum, but me and Harry got a bit carried away oh and please do give my apologies to dad as well when you see him.." he griped.

"Why don't you apologize to him yourself!?"

Louis' head whipped around, "Zayn!?"

Zayn glared, "Yes Zayn! I was worried about you too! You can't just go running off till the wee hours of the night with some strange boy we don't know!" he yelled.

Louis mentally sobbed a pity sob for himself. "I know I'm sorry and It will never happen again."

Caving this early wasn't exactly the Louis way but it beats having to play teenager again.

Liam grumbled, "Whatever, did you have fun?.." he asked.

Louis smiled, "Yeah, Harry took me to the ice cream Parlor on his motorcycle and then-"

"He what?!" Zayn yelled.

"He took me to the ice cream parlor on his motorcycle. And his goes much faster than yours Zayn. Plus his is original, he built it from scratch!" Louis bragged.

"He built it himself?!" Zayn screeched.

"Yeah he-"

"What flavors did you get?" Liam asked.

Louis raised a brow, "Come again?"

"What flavors did you two get?"

Louis looked to Zayn who shook his head in a 'just answer the loon' gesture.

"I got cookie dough and he got Rocky Road.." Louis said.

Liam nodded, pulling out his phone.

"Uhm Li.." Zayn asked tentatively, "What'cha doin'?"

"I read somewhere that the certain kinds of ice cream flavors a person likes can tell you alot about them.." he said dismissively.

Louis groaned, "Liam don't-"

"Here, Cookie Dough. If your favorite flavor is Cookie Dough, then you are ambitious, competitive, supportive, and easily suggestible.."

Louis sighed pinching the bridge of his nose, "Good God.."

"Rocky Road...Ah, here it is. If your favorite flavor is Rocky Road, then you are aggressive, competitive, possessive, and impulsive..."

Zayn gaped, "No nuh uh no way are you seeing this guy again Louis Tomlinson."

"Oh honestly Zayn! I thought you were the sane one in your little match. I can tell you right now that Harry is none of those things. He is sweet and funny and kind and not even the least bit aggressive. Now if you excuse me I am exhausted and am going to bed." he said snatching Boo Bear off the couch and marching to his room.

After he turns out the light he finds he misses Harry. He wants to hug him, and hold his hand. Louis shook his head, "I need some sleep.." he said to himself as he cuddles Boo Bear and thinks back over the day, and how bright the future seemed to be.


Harry layed in bed thinking of Louis.

How perfect he is and how much he cares about him.

"You're not capable of love. It's not in you. You're gonna end up just like me. Who could possibly love someone like you? You're not worth the trouble you make.."

Harry felt an angry tear roll down his cheek at the voice that had been haunting him all day, all year, all his life.

"No." he said.

"You're wrong."

"I swear, no matter what I have to do.." he said through gritted teeth.

"I will never let him go.."
