Can't Take It

YES

" I'm surprised you called me back Louis." Harry welcome me with a quick hug.
" mcdonalds wasn't my first choice." I laugh as I sit down. We havnt ordered yet we are just looking at eachother. It is a little awkward I mean I can't break our stare. That would make me the bad guy. We keep staring at eachother and I feel his hand touch my leg.
" harr-" I begin to speak.
" it's okay. I'm just touching you like the old times. Memories Lou." Harry pats my leg then pulls away.
" should we order my stomach is growling." He says standing up. I make a spit second decision and blurt it out.
" why don't we go to my house and you can make us lunch.. Like.." I stop and look at him as he stares at me. " like old times." I manage. He grins from ear to ear.
" sounds good to me."
Harry is in the kitchen making us lunch and I'm sitting a the table watching him. I missed him making lunch or breakfast for me every day.

* flashback *

" I'm not hungry!" I scream at the top of my lungs.
" ohh hush you. I'm already making you breakfast and you have to eat it!" Harry yanks the blankets off me revealing my red boxers.
" no. Harry I won't eat again." I yank the blanket back.
" you sure Louis...." He makes a pout face.
" does it look like I'm fucking kidding?" I shove my face into the pillow.
" fine but if you love me you will eat. I mean I made it all for you." He goes back down the stairs. He is soooooo cute when he is begging. But I just wasn't hungry. This was his third breakfast today within a two hour period. I am not an elephant. But I really love him so I better get my arse up. I make my way down the stairs.
" Louis! You do love me!" He jumps himself at me.
" of course I do babe. Now let's eat Im starving." I laugh as he releases me.

* end of flashback *

I feel a hand on my shoulder. I jolt away.
" I'm.. I'm sorry it's just you wernt answering me. Are you okay?" Harry speaks ever so soft.
" yea.. I'm fine." Truth is I am not fine.
" okay well I made you a sandwich. It's not the bes-" I stop him.
" your right it's better than the best haz. It's great thank you." I smile up at him. He blushes a little and takes a seat. I just stare at the sandwich for a while.
" hey are you gunna eat it?" Harry pushes the food toward me.
" harry we need to talk... A serious conversation."
" okay Louis what is it you want to talk about." Harry asks.
" okay.. Here it goes. Harry I want to try again.. Out of love." I close my eyes pretending I didn't just say that. When I hear nothing I get worried. But then I feel a hand touch my shoulder.
" Lou.. I thought you would never take me back for the fool I had been. But you will not regret this I promise." He releases my shoulder. " there is just one question Louis. Where do we start?" Harry looks at his feet.
" why not right where we left off. You know so we don't have to start all over. I mean I know everything there is to know about mr. Styles." I leave the sentence As a Small joke.
" yes that would be good... No great. That would be great." Harry flashes a smile. Well that went over way better than I expected. Harry was once again mine. For about he third time.
" there is one thing we need to get straight though haz." I look at him shoveling the last bit of the sandwich into his mouth.
" what?" He gives me a slight smile.
" well I want you to know after this... If you screw this up.. Or even if I do I won't know what to do with myself. So im telling you now don't.. Just please refrain from temptation harry and think of me when something dumb appears In your life. Because if you love me I know you can do it." I finish slowly.
" I understand and I will never do what I did to you again.. Ever because I love you." Harry stands up and places a kiss on my forehead. I want to believe his words but there is still a twinge in my heart when he says i love you. I almost feel like he doesn't mean it.
We are on the couch cuddling. He has been over all day and I want him to stay over. But I Don't want to come off as clingy in the beginning of our new relationship.
" when are you going home?" I wrap my arms around his waist. I feel him exhale then inflate again.
" I'm not sure... Can I stay over? Unless you think it's too earl-"
" it's fine harry. You can stay." I give him a passionate kiss.
" I love you Louis." He looks I to my eyes. I hold back a few tears.
" and I love you mr. Styles." I cup my hands around his face and rub our noses together.
I stand up and clap my hands together.
" well now that we are officially a couple again why don't we... I don't know what I'm trying to say!" I laugh because I really don't I just wanted to say that we were in a relationship and I wasnt imagining it all. It just feels fake. Played out.
" stop acting weird." Harry smiles.
" but I can't harry! Something just doesn't feel right." I sit across from him in the chair. I mean I was probably giving him second thoughts about us too.
" okay Louis stop.. Okay just stop we just got back together!" He sits up a little straighter.
" I know harry. I just feel like something is missing. Don't you?" I can already tell I'm stirring the pot up.
" oh my god Louis are you serious! Like really don't even start don't do this to me." He is starting to tear up. I feel awful.
" no, no, no, no. I don't mean it like that. Just forget it okay. Let's not fight already." I go and sit next to him on the couch. I kiss his cheek.
" your a handful Louis did you know that?" He examines my face.
" KISS ME YOU FOOL!" I pull his face into mine. Our lips knew each others mouths well. He hadn't forgotten a thing about me. As our kiss extends longer I can't help but wonder.. If well we were broken up if he still thought about me. Or if the time he saw me in the bar was when he thought of me again. Oh well I guess it doesn't matter. Right?
" so.. Should i go home Or..." Harry bites his bottom lip checking my lips out. It did turn me on but I think we might be taking it a little too fast if we do it now.
" harry really." I look at him.
" what! Too quick." He does a funky grin.
" just a little. But you can stay over if you want?" I ask him.
" that would be okay. But are you sure you don't wann-"
" harry no! We can cuddle but none of that.. Not right now." I squeeze his cheeks.
" ahh whatever." He swats my hands away. I stand up kind of tired and wanting to sleep.
" we should go to bed.. You know. In my room." " I point at the stairs. He stands up.
" uh.. Yes we should. I'll just a carry you up there!" He scoops me up in his arms. I laugh out Loud. I start to squirm a little but I slow it down as his grip tightens around me. He throws me down on the bed as he strips down to his boxers. I quickly turn away trying not to get a Bonor. I just don't want to have sex so early into our new start. He crawls up really close to me.
" your going to sleep in your jeans Lou?" He flexes up a bit. I stand up and take off my shirt. But I leave my jeans on. I get back in the bed and his arms go around me.
" I missed you Louis. So much." He kisses my neck and rests his head in my neck.
" me too harry." he just hums an mhmm and I can tell he is seconds from passing out.
" never let me go." I whisper almost loud enough for me to hear it. I fall Into a deep sleep. Wondering how my life is going to go from here. I Hope perfectly. But hey I don't want to expect too much.
