Chapter 6
-Harry POV-
We arrived home to find a slightly drunk Danny and Dougie who looked shocked by our appearance. Tom kissed me on the cheek quickly. "Thanks for that Haz... I had a really good time" he said shyly and I grinned like an idiot while I felt my face going red as I looked towards the ground. That itself settled it! "Danny! Sober up, we need to talk!" I said. "What's up? Harry?" Tom worried while looking me in the eyes again but I couldn't do it and I looked down straight away. "Nothing Tom, everything's going to be fine, just don't worry and can you look after Dougie?" I said and took back the eye contact with Tom. Danny got up from his spot on the floor next to Dougie who looked a bit edgy. I walked into the kitchen with Danny right behind me. I got him some coffee to help him sober up faster before I started talking.
"This has to end. Like now" I said simply. "It doesn't! The fun's just started Haz... I was thinking of taking it up a level like who can get the other to sleep with them" he carried on then winking at me. Obviously he was still a bit drunk or was he serious? "Are you serious Danny? They're our mates that we're talking about! And you want to carry on a bet just so you can bed Dougie?!" I said furiously and at that moment Dougie burst into the kitchen. His eyes were wide with shock and tears were falling down his face... "You're both f*cking dicks, you know that?" he said emotionlessly despite how he looked before running upstairs to his room probably and locking it. "Great!" I said sarcastically. "I knew this would happen now they're both going to hate us" I said with anger boiling inside me... At myself and more over Danny for starting this. "I don't see what's wrong" he said and I lost it. I punched him in the jaw. "What's wrong with you?" I shouted.
I stormed up the stairs but got stopped by Tom in the hallway. He looked the same as Dougie did and it broke my heart. "Is it true?" he said, obviously wishing me to tell him that it wasn't and that this was all just a misunderstanding. But it wasn't... "I'm sorry" I said looking at the ground like child being told off by their parents. "I can only say that I'm disappointed and an idiot for thinking that you actually liked me" he said while looking at the ceiling and rubbing the wetness out of his eyes. "I do Tom" I tried but my voice came out weakly and quiet as I felt myself crying as well. "Save it for some other idiot who'll listen to your lies" he sobbed then walked away to the music room. I spotted Dougie sitting in there before the door shut quietly and the sound of lock clicking after it.
-Danny POV-
I was always the last one to figure something out between the four of us and that hit to the jaw really knocked some sense into me. What was I doing? I could have just tried to get into a proper relationship with Dougie but now I look like a right d*ck who just wanted to sleep with him...for a bet. I just sat there holding my jaw loosely. I couldn't talk to Dougie today, I need to wait a while. I'll try tomorrow when everything's calmed down.
-Dougie POV-
Why did this have to happen to me? Why did I deserve this to happen to me? Why did Tom deserve this? I hated Harry and Danny for doing what they did to us. Making me and Tom into a bet...an object of their entertainment. It shocked me so much to know that they could be so inconsiderate towards us or so much that they didn't even care about us. I picked up an acoustic guitar that hung on the wall near me. A melody was entering my head. Just how I had to express my feelings and I knew I could and would do it through a song, the only way I knew how.
-Tom POV-
Me and Dougie put together a melody and a song about our pain and everything we felt. And I knew the song would forever represent what Danny and Harry did to us and what we went through. How could they have been so thoughtless or even careless and not take our feelings into account. We stayed up all night putting lyrics with the melody and chords to make sure it was perfect. So much unlike our lives right then. After that, we fell asleep in each others' arms. Keeping each other warm and safe. I felt a bit better now the feelings were out, but it didn't change what they had done.
