Liam *POV*

"Want to watch a movie before you have to go to your evening classes?" Niall asks.

"Oh I uhmm... My girlfriend wanted to Skype." I let him know.

"Girls suck. Come watch a movie with me." Niall says.

"Niall she's my girlfriend. She said it was really important too." I say.

"Fine. But when you're done come watch with me." Niall says.

"Will do." I smile at him feeling somewhat ... Giddy?

I make my way to my room and see that's she's calling. I quickly sit down and hit answer.

"Hey babe!" I smile widely.

"Hey Li." She says in a sad, dull tone.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"Li... I don't think I can do this long distance thing babe. It's to hard and saddening for me." She mumbles.

"What are you trying to say?" I ask hoping it's not what I think it is.

"I think we should split. See new people. You know I met this really nice guy today maybe there is a really nice girl over at your university." She says softly.

"B-But-"

"Look Li... I'm sorry but, this is too much. I have to go now. I'm going out please find someone. Don't be sad over me. I know how emotional you get." She says.

"But-"

"Bye Li." She hangs up.

My heart slowly does from this.

What happened?

We were going so strong!

I sigh closing my laptop and placing it beside me. I groan turning into my comforter and gripping it. A tear escapes and I sniffle. Was I not worth waiting for.

I get off the bed and wipe my eyes. I walk into the kitchen and get a water bottle. I down it in gulps as I turn to get something to eat.

"Hey Li! Wanna- are you okay?" Niall asks.

"Yea." My voice cracks. "I'll be fine." I clear my throat.

"What happened mate?" He asks.

"The important thing she has to tell me... She wanted to break up with me." I mumble.

"Hey man, women suck... That's why I like it up the butt." Niall offers with a lopsided smile trying to make me smile. I chuckle weakly. "Nah... People say it's cause I was born to like men."

Niall rests against the counter. "But seriously, you're an amazing guy anyone is lucky to call you their man."

I laugh dryly, "Apparently not everyone."

"C'mon Liam! That's not the spirit. You're a kind man. You put yourself last even when your sick. She obviously was high on something because your honestly an amazing man." Niall brushes some of my hair out of my face and rests his hand on my cheek bone caressing it.

I lean into his hand closing my eyes as I sigh. "Thank you Niall. How about that movie?"

I open my eyes and he smiles pulling my hand into the living room. "I popped three bags of popcorn so we can share."

I chuckle and ruffle his hair. He smiles and presses play on the blue ray player and I take a seat on the couch. He follows me and sits close beside me and puts a giant bowl of popcorn in between us.

"Don't laugh at my movie choice." Niall warns as he leans into me and the movie begins. I hold in my chuckle. Mulan. "Hey I said no laughing!"

"But it's such a cute choice how can I not." I wink and stuff my face with popcorn.

"And you eat my popcorn! Liam I am hurt." Niall pouts.

"Hey you said I could share with you." I reply.

"You're lucky I like you." He says and turns back to the movie to watch it. I shake my head and watch it as well.

*#*#*#*

"I've got evening class so I will se you later. Thanks for making me feel better." I says as I grab my bag.

"No problem Liam it was my pleasure. That bitch doesn't deserve a man like you." Niall gives me a big hug and I hold him close loving the feeling of him hugging me.

"Bye Niall!" I call out as I leave.

"Bye Li!" He says.

Such a sweet boy. You know if he would actually flirt with boys and hangout with them instead of constantly have one night stands he could have a boyfriend. The thought of him having a boyfriend churns something within me. As you probably can tell I am very protective over my friends and family.

My thoughts about Niall come to a break when I see Harry and Louis walking towards the garden. Harry is busy talking around him while Louis walks with an annoyed look.

I chuckle. Oh Harry.

I watch as another boy walks up to Harry and I notice it's Danny. I glare at him as I continue to walk and watch him touch Harry's arm. I'm about to go up and hit that boy when Louis begins to sass the lad. I chuckle and Louis then hits Danny on his arm and he cowers.

I smile knowing Harry is okay and make my way into the arts building. I take a seat in my advanced English course and sigh.

*#*#*#*

I check my watch and it's 1am. I yawn making my way back to my dorm. I get into the elevator and wait for my floor number. When it dings I get out and walk towards my room but stop as I see Harry sneaking in.

Why isn't he in bed?!

I quickly follow him and catch him taking his shoes off.

"And where have you been?" I ask.

"N-Nowhere." He stutters.

"Mhmm... Now tell me Harry." I demand.

"Let the lad go Liam." Niall chuckles, "or should I call you dad?"

"He's been out all night! I think I deserve to know where he was." I say as-a-matter-of-factly.

"Harry dear you're excused Liam is being a party pooper." Niall says and Harry smiles quickly scurrying to his room.

"Niall! I was not done talking to him."

"Liam... Go to bed will you. The boy is 18 I think he can make his decisions by himself." Niall yawns.

"Niall. He just got to-"

"Shh."

"Did you just-"

"Shhh." Niall begins yo push me to my room.

"Don't shush-"

"Shh." He whispers into my ear and I shiver slightly before he pushes me into my room. "And don't come out until you have had your sleep."

I roll my eyes at Niall and make my way to my bed.

"Good boy." He winks at me before leaving to his room.

I'm not a dog.

*#*#*#*

Harry *POV*

-earlier today-

"So then I told Liam that I was going to go to the playground and this kid-"

"Hello there sexy." Danny's now familiar voce cuts me of as I was telling Louis a story. His hand rubs up and down my arm and I look over to Louis uncomfortable. "I was wondering if you wanted-"

"Danny get your fucking hand off this boy." Louis glares at Danny.

"C'mon Lou share." He winks at Louis.

"I don't share." He punches Danny in the arm.

"Fucking hell mate! God I just wanted to fuck him." Danny lets go of me and grabs his arm. I slide over to Louis and he grabs me by my bicep and pulls me along.

"Anyways as I was saying before-"

"Just shut up already! God!" Louis begs me. He looks completely annoyed and I sigh.

"Sorry." I mumble and he continues to pull me.

"It's fine you're just being annoying." Louis mutters.

"Sorry..." I say again.

Louis sighs and sits on the bench in the garden.

"Have you ever had alcohol innocent?" Louis asks.

"My name is Harry and no." I reply.

"I know what your name is but I'm calling you innocent. Well today is your lucky day! I'm going to a party- you know what that is right?" Louis asks. I nod in response. "Okay well you're coming with and I'm going to make you a few drinks."

"Is it a birthday party?" I ask. Louis bursts out laughing with tears springing to his eyes.

"No Mr. Innocent it's a college party." Louis clarifies.

"Oh..." I blush.

*#*#*#*

The music vibrates the walls of the house we are going to for a party. I told Niall to keep this a secret after he helped me get ready. I told him about my crush on Louis and he just smirked while allowing me to gush over him.

Now I am walking into the house with Louis. He is dressed in black skinny jeans, a black nirvana shirt, and black converse with yellow laces. I can't help but look at how his pants tighten to his crotch. I continue to follow him through the house and into the kitchen.

"Now innocent. If you want to stay innocent after tonight don't let anyone take you upstairs or downstairs. Try to stay in the kitchen, living room or the dance floor over in the dinning room." Louis instructs. "If you need me I'll probably be trying to hook up with someone so don't come find me."

I nod in understanding and all of a sudden I begin to wish I never came. I feel awkward and Louis mixes a few liquids together.

"Here try some." Louis says and I smell it first. My nose crinkles and I take a sip. It burns down my throat and tears come to my eyes. I cough constantly and look towards Louis. He is laughing before he shakes his head and had a drink of his. I continue to cough and put the cup down.

"L-Louis-"

"Listen Harry I'll be around." Louis says before leaving.

I wait in the kitchen for a bit longer before I decide to leave. I walk out to the living room and push past a few boys talking.

"Isn't that the innocent boy?" One asks.

"One second." Another says before someone grabs my arm.

"Hey there cutie." A tall man says.

"I-I have to go." I mumble.

"How about you stay with me for a bit." He winks at me.

"I don't want to." I say.

"Justin leave the boy alone." A female says.

I look over to her and she gives me a sympathetic look. "Sorry about him sweetie he is always trying to find a new boy to get into their pants."

I blush and look away.

"Justin. Go find someone else to fool with!" She snaps as he puts his hands on my thighs and rubs them. I whimper and hide behind the girl.

"Whatever Isabelle." He glares and walks away.

"C'mon sweetie lets get you back to your home." She says and takes my hand walking out of the house. "Where do you live?"

"I live at one of the dorms on campus." I mumble.

"Okay I'll walk you back to campus okay." She says and I nod. We take a long walk back to campus and as we turn a corner and pass a familiar tree I see the campus.

"Here you go. Try to stay away from parties." She giggles, "especially since you're the innocent."

"I-I was just- I wanted-"

"You went with Louis yah?" She asks and I nod. "Hmmm... Interesting. Usually people stay away from him."

"I-I was just- I wanted to- I was trying-"

"It's okay. Louis is a good guy when you get to know him." Isabelle says. "Well I'll see you around..."

"Harry." I stick out my hand and she shakes it.

"Nice to meet you Harry." She says before she leaves. I walk back to the apartment complex. I walk in and go to the elevator, I click the up arrow. When the elevator dings I go in and sigh.

Well today was a bust.

I groan and when the elevator dings for my floor I sneakily make my way into my dorm room.

"And where have you been?" Liam's voice rings through my ears. I jump from Liam startling me.

"N-Nowhere." I stutter.

"Mhmm... Now tell me Harry." Liam demands as I try to think of a lie.

Liam wouldn't appreciate it if I told him I was at a college party.

"Let the lad go Liam." Niall chuckles as he walks into the foyer, "or should I call you dad?"

"He's been out all night! I think I deserve to know where he was." Liam says as-a-matter-of-factly.

"Harry dear you're excused Liam is being a party pooper." Niall says to me like a mother. I smile quickly bolting to my room.

"Niall! I was not done talking to him." Liam scolds before my door closes and their argument is muffled. I sigh flopping down on my bed and rubbing my face.

Oh Louis can't you just pay attention to me?
