You're not ready for this one and I'm not sure why I can't write Harry's POV as good as Louis' POV. It's still weird for me ...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >

With his head on Louis' shoulder and Louis' hand rested safely on his waist, Harry was secretly watching Jake from the cafeteria table. He noticed him stealing short glances at them over and over again. This made Harry's stomach feel all fuzzy but he had to stay collected. When he and Jake made short eye contact Harry placed his hand obviously on Louis thigh and drew circles on it with his finger. He felt Jake watching him with a frown but also all of his friends.

"You think provoking him will get you in his pants?" questioned Àmber Harry's method, side-eyeing Louis.

"Maybe you didn't notice it because you were too focused on me but Jake obviously didn't like it. He is so jealous" returned Harry cockily.

"Sounds like you're enjoying this pretty much" grinned Niall at him and transmitted his grin to Harry.

"Pretty much, yeah".

"Jealousy has always been a good way to get a reaction from stubborn and closed off people" commented Sean entertained.

"Really, huh? So, you like playing with people's feelings?" cocked Zayn an eyebrow at him.

"You're getting off topic here. No one's playing with anything here" told Harry him annoyed.

"You're playing with Louis" shot Zayn back determined.

"Javy" hissed Louis quietly.

"What's that supposed to mean? He offered to do it. Put your hurt ego elsewhere" snapped Harry at him. Just because he can't get into Louis' pants right now he shouldn't leave that out on him. No idea how Louis can stand Zayn.

"What did you just say?" tried Zayn to stay calm.

"You heard that? I think Chloe called us. We should leave for French" stood Liam up abruptly and dragged Harry with him. They stumbled out of the cafeteria and towards their class room.

"Thank you, Liam" thanked Harry him when they stopped in front of the room.

"No problem. The situation was getting out of hand" shrugged Liam nonchalantly.

"True. I really thought Zayn might jump at me any second. Damn, he has some anger issues" noted Harry thoughtlessly.

"I prefer the word protective" bit Liam down on his bottom lip and looked hella conflicted.

"Of Louis? A bit much, isn't it? He is being a drama queen" stuffed Harry his hands into his trouser pockets.

"Give it a break. He wasn't that bad and not completely wrong. He is just worried about ...".

"Louis. I know" cut Harry him off. "But I don't see why. He came up with all of this. Well, I can't deny I would have asked him for it anyway but still. His idea and he said it's okay because his crush is impossible to get anyway".

"Because Louis is simply Louis. He would do and say anything to make you happy. No matter what that means for him" marked Liam softly.

"Are you trying to tell me something? Why are you and Zayn, well and Àmber, acting like I'm hurting Louis and he is going to break? Did I miss something?" became Harry suspicious.

"You're playing a risky game, Harry. You pretend to have feelings that you simply don't have. Someone is gonna get hurt along the way and I'm scared of the consequences" revealed Liam to him and his choice of words and voice reminded him of his mum, which made him roll his eyes at his friend.

"Louis doesn't deserve this" whispered Liam more to himself but Harry had heard it and wanted to ask what he meant but, in this moment, their French teacher came towards them and unlocked the door.

On his way to the band audition, Harry decided to keep an eye on Louis. Something about the way Zayn was acting was off and Liam's words had confused the shit out of him. There was a detail that Harry overlooked and he wanted to know what it was. What better way than during a time Louis never pretended and was simply himself. Today's audition for a new bass player for Louis' band. That he had with Àmber, Aria and of course, Zayn. What a surprise.

"Haz, you're here" beamed Louis at him when he spotted Harry walking towards him.

"Of course. Where else should I be?!" smiled Harry at his best friend.

"Nowhere. No place is as good as this one because they don't have me" joked Louis carefree.

"And no one's better than you" joined Harry his laughter.

"You got it" nudged Louis him lightly.

"When you're done with whatever that was could you please focus on the audition now, Tommy. The first two options were horrible" interrupted Zayn their little moment.

"Sure thing, Javy. We really need to find someone, who wants to stay in the band even when High School is over" shifted Louis his attention from Harry over to Zayn. Harry found it weird that Louis didn't sass Zayn one bit or said anything snarky like with anyone else. Well, apart from himself.

"You're coming, Haz?" glance Louis back at him over his shoulder.

"Always" followed Harry him towards their seats.

The audition was boring him. Most of the people were really bad and thought they were the kings or queens. Never would he have thought finding a bass player could be this hard. Why did you need them anyway? The band had drums, keys, a guitar and a great lead singer. Nothing more needed in Harry's eyes.

"What's your name?" asked Louis for the what felt like thousandth time today.

"I'm Liron" introduced a coloured guy himself shyly.

"Okay. Liron, what are you looking for here today?" went Louis on and Harry blinked confused at him. That question was new.

"I'd like to say something smart now but I can't. I just really wanna play in a band and share my passion with other people who feel the same about music. I don't know. I just wanna ... you know?" wrestled Liron for words and Harry had no clue what he was trying to say.

"I know" seemed Louis to understand him and Zayn nodded along.

"You prepared something?" checked Zayn in a voice Harry had never heard before. Almost gentle.

"Sure. Yeah, um. I'm gonna show you" was Liron shaking with nerves.

"Relax, Liron. No need to be nervous. We won't bite you" tried Louis to calm him down.

"Unless you want us to" added Zayn jokingly.

"Not right now" smiled Liron shortly.

Was Harry seeing things or was Zayn flirting with Liron? Right in front of Louis? He was the one talking about not hurting people but was hitting on someone else although he was hooking-up with Louis?! Harry was speechless.

Focusing back on Liron, Harry shut out everything and listened to him. He sounded pretty good and Louis and Zayn seemed to like it. This was the first time today they were both smiling satisfied and that had to mean something.

"Pretty good. You wanna try a song with us?" offered Zayn him friendly and Harry felt the need to puke.

"Um, yeah sure. Just bass and guitar then?" checked Liron overwhelmed.

"For now. The girls are not ...".

"We're here. Wait" ran Aria into the room, followed by Àmber.

"Sorry. Our freaking teacher talked us against the wall but we heard you through the hallway. Impressive" explained Àmber why they haven't been here the whole time.

"It's okay. You told us, remember?" grinned Louis at them.

"Still. Wasn't planned this long" insisted Àmber stubbornly.

"Whatever. You wanna play now?" looked Louis expectantly at them.

"Of course," chorused both girls and jumped on stage.

The five of them got ready and slowly started to play the band's song Rock Me. It has been their first and since then, an all-time favourite. Many times, they have played it in school for events. The people loved it and Harry was obsessed. (My own song called like this, not 1D's song)

"Always thought I'd be better off alone. Have been living for years on my own. Constantly dark and lonely. And I thought that's how it always would be" started Louis to sing smoothly.

"But then you walked into my life. Shining like the stars so bright. Giving me willingly what I desire. And I know now it can only get better" followed the bridge.

"Baby, please rock my life. Show me what you can do. Shake my world alive. I've been dying and longing for you. Just for tonight be with me. Baby, please rock me, yeah" jammed Harry along to the chorus.

"You told me you wanna know how I'm feeling inside. But you're here and there and everywhere. If you come to me tonight I'm gonna let it slide" sounded Louis' voice in the room.

"Oh. Then you walked into my life. Shining like the stars so bright. Giving me willingly what I desire. And I know now it can only get better" sang Zayn and Louis together the second bridge before going into the chorus.

"Shaking, trembling, blood rushing through my veins. Sweaty palms and heavy breathing, oh-oh. You knocked me down and completely turned my world around. Was feeling lost but now I am found" took Zayn over the third part before singing the bridge with Louis again and finishing the song off with the chorus.

Remember when Harry was speechless a few minutes ago? Now he was breathless on top of that. But not because of the band. No, Jake was walking into the room right now with one of his friends. Probably Kyle.

"That was freaking amazing!" exclaimed Àmber happily.

"Thanks" blushed Liron at the praise.

"No reason to blush. You were great" patted Zayn his shoulder and Harry would be disgusted if his brain could work right now.

"Hi Harry. You're supporting your little boyfriend?" greeted Jake him surprisingly.

"Yeah, of course" brought Harry out.

"What are you doing here?" jumped Louis off the stage and walked over to them.

"Isn't that obvious?" towered Jake directly in front of Louis. "I'm here for your audition".

"Oh, since when do you have any musical talent? I thought you couldn't even dribble to the beat" brought Louis some space between them. His words were making Harry very angry. Why was he being so mean to Jake?

"Didn't think you would know that word" snarled Jake back but Louis wasn't impressed at all. "My friend here has a talent for expressing himself through his music".

"Too bad. We already found someone" was Louis obviously not sad about this fact.

"Really?" marvelled Liron shocked.

"Really" confirmed Zayn softly and damn, he had to be really needy.

"Believe me, Kyle is better than him. Show them" ordered Jake his friend Kyle.

Ignorantly, Kyle stepped on stage and grabbed for the bass. Loudly, he started to play some song Harry didn't recognise. It wasn't his favourite thing in the world and not his style of music but Kyle had some talent, somewhere. He was Jake's friend after all. Harry was sure he was a diamond in disguise.

"Speechless Louis Tomlinson. Never thought I'd live to see that day. Told you he is great" broke Jake the silence in the room.

"Great at being angry maybe. That accident on stage wasn't music. That was just noise. Loud noise that hurts innocent ears. No need for that. But I'm not surprised you like that, Jakey" stood Louis his ground and Harry was getting more and more pissed off by Louis' behaviour. He was supposed to make Jake jealous and not angry. He was not supposed to scare him off!

"Your boyfriend is pretty impertinent, don't you think?" glanced Jake shortly at Harry, who only nodded.

"Wow, a nice word. Did you google it beforehand?" mocked Louis him sassily.

"Cheeky would be too cute for such a prickly dwarf like you" shot Jake back.

"Watch what you're saying, Bafort" growled Zayn darkly at him.

"Oh, how cute. Look who has found his voice to protect the dwarf. Shouldn't his boyfriend defend him and not his bandmate?" cooed Jake fakely at them.

"I'm his best friend and I would be careful with your words when I'm around, Bafort" loomed Zayn threateningly in front of him.

"Pretty big words for someone your size" looked Jake down on him and Harry smirked satisfied at that.

"If you're not planning on playing yourself then you should leave the room, Jake. Right now," went Louis in between them.

"I have nothing left to say anyway. We're leaving, but hey. I always wanted to know who that song was about. Guess I know that now. Congrats for banging your ex-best friend after all these years" moved Jake closer to Louis' face and his words got quieter by the second until Harry didn't understand what he was saying anymore.

"You" growled Louis at him and grabbed him by the shirt.

"Tommy, don't" stopped Zayn him.

Fast, Harry went over there, feeling furious. "Louis, what the hell?".

"Have fun with that. See you around, Hazza" said Jake goodbye to him and left the room with Kyle.

"C'mon, Liron. Let's talk outside about some details for next week" dragged Aria him outside with Àmber.

"What were you doing, Louis?! You're supposed to make him jealous and not piss him off and fight. God damn it, why can't you control yourself a bit better sometimes?! Don't fuck this up" exploded Harry as soon as the door was closed.

"Don't you dare talk to him like this. Was he supposed to let Jake win?" got Zayn furious.

"You stay out of this" hissed Harry at him.

"Javy, let it be. Haz, Jake was just here to piss me off. Kyle never wanted to be in the band. He is doing this on purpose" tried Louis to explain calmly.

"Why would he do that, huh? He has no reason to piss you off, Louis. Stop acting like it's all about you. Why do you always bully the boys that I like?" was Harry losing his temper.

"What? Haz, I don't ...".

"Oh, c'mon" snorted Harry in disbelief.

"Louis is not bullying anyone, Harry. What's wrong with you?" intervened Zayn now.

"Sure? Remember when Sean came into the picture? From the first second you didn't like him but for what reason? What did he ever do to make you hate him?" Harry wanted to know finally.

"I don't hate him" mumbled Louis small.

"Who are you trying to fool, Louis? You never gave him a chance. You snap at him at any given chance and even correct him when he calls you Tommo. Everyone does that. Why can't he? I can tell you. Because you hate him. And now with Jake you're even worse. You were acting absolutely bitchy towards him and even wanted to punch him. I don't think Kyle has the anger issues. It's you" accused Harry Louis of things he was certain were right.

"Jake was provoking him but of course, you didn't hear that, right? You're his friend. You should know Louis would never act like this without a reason" stepped Zayn in again.

"Of course, you protect him. I'm not even surprised. I told you to stay out of this" groaned Harry annoyed.

"I won't let you insult my best friend" stated Zayn surely.

"He is not your best friend!" exclaimed Harry angry. "He is my best friend since we were kids. Not yours".

"Great best friend" snorted Zayn unimpressed.

"Shut up! Don't act like you know him better than I do. I've known him way longer. You're little whatever it is means nothing. You're nothing, Zayn" snapped Harry madly, successfully shutting Zayn up.

"Don't talk to him like this" protected Louis now Zayn strongly.

"Wow, he really has you wrapped around his little finger. I see how it is" realised Harry how bad it really was.

"What? Harry, I have no idea what you're talking about. I just don't want you to say something like this to Zayn. He is important to me and you know that. You accused me of hating Sean and Jake but I know for a fact that you can't stand Zayn and for no reason, at that" confronted Louis him now.

"Oh, unlike you I have a reason. He is a bad person, always being moody and bitchy and only playing with people, playing with you. And you deserve better than that" let Harry him know, completely ignoring Zayn's shocked and hurt fact. He deserved it.

"He is not the one pretending to date me to make someone jealous" said Louis simply and that was enough to prove to Harry he has been right about Zayn the whole time.

"That's low. It was your plan and now you're blaming it on me. Wow. When you're back to being normal and not influenced by Zayn anymore, call me. I'm off" ended Harry this conversation and walked towards the door.

"Harry!" called Louis after him but he just ignored him and left the room to finally leave this shitty day behind.
