《Its Only You (Larry Stylinson short story)》Chapter 4

Harry's POV:
Like yesterday I was getting teased in the car, but this time we were joined by Liam. Zayn didn't come because he wanted to spend the whole day with Perrie since she was leaving for the Neon Light's tour tomorrow evening.
"Damn I can't wait to meet Louis and see what all the commotion is about." Liam said teasingly and I rolled my eyes.
"We're here." Paul announced. The lads and I took took off our seat belts and hopped out of the vehicle. We sauntered over to the football field and were met with the Manchester United coach. I noticed that he was wearing a different shirt which had his name stitched on it. His name was Jason.
"Hello lads. We are very excited for tomorrow's game and we can't wait to watch the performance." His tone was casual, but I could tell he was eager.
"We are also feeling very vibrant for tomorrow." Liam spoke up. I noticed that Jason looked at him confused as to who he was. Probably because Liam didn't come yesterday. Apparently Liam also noticed the look the coach gave him so he put on a warm smile and took out his hand.
"I'm Liam and I am also in the band." Jason smiled and shook his hand.
"Its nice to meet you Liam."
"Likewise, there is also another person in the band, but he could not make it to the practice so you will meet him tomorrow." Liam said and Jason nodded.
"Well I, as well as the whole team cannot wait for tomorrow. Will you join us and Niall for practice later? Sadly Harry can't join us because of his leg but we will be happy for you to join." Jason said
Liam gave me a confused look and I just blinked my eyes two time that I will explain later and he gave me another look and turned back to the coach.
"Alright, I will be happy to join and I really want to meet everyone." Liam said.
Jason nodded and we followed him to the outside of the locker room where my eye immediately caught Louis'. To my surprise, Louis also saw me and waved to me. I blushed and shot a smile.
"Seems like these feelings aren't one sided." I turned and saw Liam smirking.
"Its nothing like that. He doesn't feel the same." Harry muttered. Liam's smirk turned into a smile.
"We'll see." He said and I just sighed.
"I wish." and walked off with Liam.
We greeted some of the players and took pictures with some. I saw Louis walk towards my direction so I smoothed my shirt and put on a huge smile.

"Hey Harry. Nice to see you again." Louis said.
"Yeah same here." I said, surprising myself for not stuttering.
"I can't wait to see your performance tomorrow and last night I listened to your album Midnight Memories and I gotta say that my favorite is Happily."
I instantly smiled widely because I wrote that song for Louis when he was dating Eleanor Calder 2 months back. When the news came to me that they broke up I threw a party and it was one of the best days ever.
"I-I wrote that song."
Louis grinned and nodded.
"You did a bloody amazing job writing it. I put it on replay the whole time."
I couldn't help but blush when he said that.
"Thank you Louis."
"Harry introduce me to your friend."
I turned and saw Liam smiling at me and then to Louis. Although I knew that smile from anywhere.
"Liam this is Louis." I said and Louis smiled and took out his hand.
"Its nice to meet one of Harry's band mates. I cannot wait for to see your performance tomorrow."
Liam grinned and took his hand.
"And we cannot wait to watch the game. Harry is the most excited out of all of us actually."
I flashed a glare at Liam and noticed that Louis was smirking.
"I-"
"LOUIS ITS TIME FOR PRACTICE!"
But thankfully I was interrupted by one of the players and Louis left with an apologetic look and said bye.
"He totally likes you."
Liam said; watching Louis leave.
"No he doesn't. Stop giving me false hopes."
Liam rolled his eyes and I just walked off with him following.
"Where's Niall?" He asked.
I shrugged and we walked to the bleachers meeting our irish friend.
"Hey lads! You just missed the part where Louis took off his shirt and flashed his abs." He said, looking at me.
I looked at him angrily and upset that I missed it and then I noticed Liam and Niall exchanging looks.
"Don't be upset, Niall is just teasing." Liam assured and I glared at Niall.
"You piece of.."
Soon Niall jumped up from his spot and I chased after him. I could tell that he was enjoying this. This infuriated me, he's not supposed to be happy!
"NIALL YOU FUCKING PRICK." I yelled and I could hear Liam laughing.
I finally caught up to Niall and grabbed his hood. He shrieked, but I could tell he was trying to cover up his laugh.
"YOU-"
"Boys break it up!"
I saw Louis coming to us and I saw that the team was now staring at us; I flushed in embarrassment. He waved to the team to continue and approached us.

"Whats going on?" Louis asked.
"Actually Harry here-"
"Niall was just being Niall and this is normal." I said, interrupting Niall.
"Alright. As long as everything is ok." Louis said and I just nodded.
Niall walked off to Liam, but gave me a teasing look before leaving.
"So hows your foot now? I mean after watching that I think its better." Louis said and I flushed.
"Listen Louis about that.. Actually I'm not good a football and I don't want to embarrass myself."
Louis smiled understandingly and I looked down.
"You could have told me before and I would have taught you. Just the two of us and you won't have an audience to be embarrassed to."
I thought for a moment and looked up at him.
"Ok, I'll tell Niall and Liam leave without me and to pick me up later."
"No I could drop you off to your flat."
Wow is this actually happening? Louis is actually offering to drop me off home. Think Harry, maybe next time he would propose!
"Yes!" Louis looked at me confused with my sudden outburst. "um I mean yeah totally that's cool."
He arched his eyebrows and looked at me amused.
"Ok well see you later then." He said and walked off.
I ran over to Liam and Niall and jumped on Niall.
"Whoa Harry! Did Louis ask you to get laid with him or something?" Niall asked, half jokingly.
"No you idiot! Louis asked me to stay afterwards so he could teach me how to play football and then he would drop me home!" I said happily.
"Wow congrats mate. Now we knows he likes you." Liam said.
"Shut up, he's just being nice."
"Whatever helps you sleep at night." Niall said and I stuck my tongue at him.
"Well remember to use protection!" Niall teased and I could feel my cheeks getting warm.
"Stop it Niall!" I yelled and buried my face in my hands.
*****
Practice ended and Niall and Liam left after playing a few games. They wished me words of good luck with a big of teasing before leaving.
I was finally alone with Louis and I had some football shoes on with a jersey for Manchester United.
"Who's jersey is this?" I asked Louis.
"Its my old one. I figured it would fit you since its too big for me."
I smiled shyly at the thought that maybe some of Louis' scent would still be in the jersey.
"Ok lets start!" Louis announced and grabbed a ball as we walked towards the field.
"Before we start, please don't laugh because I am a klutz and I am horrible at football." I said. Louis gave me a soft look as he placed the ball to my feet.
"I won't and don't worry we are not all pros in the start." Louis said.
This is why I love him so much.
We started with some basics like dribbling the ball across the field and back and kicking it back and forth. During this we made small talk and I learned that his life is only football and family. He was very close with the coach and considered him as a father since his real father left him and his family a couple years back.
I told him how my mum divorced long back and that I rarely met my birth father.
"I know you must be wondering why I even wanted to take a break in the first place since my life is mostly football."
Louis said as we were taking a small break.
"I just want to get away from the fame and media and rubbish interviews." He explained, "so I am just going to play with my smaller team and live in my flat and visit my mum and sisters for about 3 weeks."
"I understand. Sometimes I also just want to get away from all the paparazzi and all this whole famous nonsense." I said.
"Yeah, you're lucky that you have your best mates with you through all of this. I only have a professional relationship with the team, but I don't have any real friends."
"Nonsense. You're my friend."
Louis looked at me and smiled brightly.
"Thank you. You're a great lad Harry."
I smiled back and we just stared at each other for a moment and then Louis abrutly stood up.
"I think we should get back to practice." Louis said as he helped me up.
"I think we should give up, I am absolutely shit at football."
"That's absurd. I mean you can sing so why not football?"
I gave him a are-you-serious look which he didn't catch.
"Singing is easier and football takes a lot of energy. Even more than singing." I remarked and he just rolled his eyes.
"Well I am shit at singing so I don't get what you're getting at, but you can do it."
"Whatever." I said as I playfully rolled my eyes. He noticed and gently pushed me.
"Hey! What was that for?" I said, feigning a hurt expression.
"You rolled your eyes at me." He said.
I rolled my eyes again and Louis pushed me even rougher. Soon enough we were in a tackle fight which lasted until Louis pulled away.
"I think we should get going now. Tomorrow is the big game and you have a concert."
I stood up and wiped away the dirt from my jeans and followed Louis to his car.
Tomorrow is a big day.

Leaves of Terranthir
DISCONTINUED - I won't be writing more of this fiction. Check out the latest post for a worlbuilding summary / final thoughts. Leaves of Terranthir is a gamelit blend of ARPG, action, fantasy, and slice of life. It's inspired in part by some of my favourite games, borrowing in themes, sense of exploration, and aesthetics from the Soulsborne and soulslike genre, mixed heavily with arpg itemization from Diablo/PoE style games. While many may remember their Soulslike experiences as nothing more than suffering, I personally loved the sense of progression, to prevail over challenges and monsters that seemed impossible to defeat at first. If any of that seems interesting to you, do check out the first chapter and let me know what you think. Cheers, and thanks for reading. Cover by Baconstrap.
