Underneath All Your Layers.

(Louis' POV)

Nick takes me by the arm, maybe a little bit too tight, and leads me out of the coffe shop after paying the bill. He opens the car door for me, and he might have slammed the door, I'm not sure.

Nick gets in the car and starts driving, his hands gripping the steering wheel a little tighter than usual.

I decide to speak up.

"N-Nicky?"
"Hmm?"
"Uhm...A-are you okay?"

Silence.

"Babe? I just-"
"Louis don't even pretend this is about me."
"What?"
"I saw the way you looked at that waiter boy- Harvey or whatever."
"His name was Harry and you shouldn't just-"
"I don't give a fuck what his name was, God dammit Lou!"
"I-I'm sorry I-"
"Oh you're gonna be sorry. Get the fuck out of the car and go inside."

He pulls into our driveway.

"NOW, LOUIS!"

On shaky feet I get out and run inside.

Nick scares me sometimes.

(Harry's POV)

I walk home from the shop, and yet I haven't been able to get that boy off my mind since. His bright, beautiful blue eyes, that light chocolate coloured hair with the fringe going every which-way, his tan skin, and don't even get me started on that bum. Like, wow.

Anyway, I was walking home when I heard the high-pitched voice I had already grown so accustomed to. Jesus Harry, you sound like a serial killer.

I turn my head and I see him.

He's scrambling out of a car and tripping over his own feet as he runs to the door of the flat they have parked infront of.

And then, I see him.

Nick.

His face has don't fucking mess with me written all over it.

And, yet, like the idiot I am, I do the exact thing he needs least.

"Louis?"

He whips his head around, his face is pale with tears.

"U-uhm, hi Harry." He smiles as best he can.
"Louis who the fuck is this?" Nick growls.
"I j-just told you about him, Nick! This is Harry." Nick is still blank and expressionless. "FROM THE COFFEE SHOP, NICK."

Nick makes a face of disgust.

Well fuck you too, mister.

"Oh." He mutters. "What are you doing here, Harvey."
"It's Harry."
"Yeah yeah, whatever. What are you doing here?"
"Well I live right over there, so." I say, pointing to the flat next to theirs.

"Oh, fucking awesome, a new neighbor."
"Actually I've lived here for 2 months, thank you very much. But I guess you never had time to come and say hi, what with your being busy having your head up your ass." I spat, storming off and slamming my door.

Just in case, I make sure to lock it.
