(swore to each other) we'd never be enemies
βYou know,β Niall starts, βwhen you asked me to come over, I wasnβt expecting this.β He frowns, his arms crossed as he stares at the unconscious person resting on Louisβ guest bed, before pinning Louis down with a stare. βNo offense, but, what the fuck.β
He watches as Louis shrugs a shoulder, faux casual, but Niall has known him long enough to know that thereβs multitudes behind that movement, behind the stormy look in his eyes. βYou donβt understand,β Louis whispers, and Niall will have to concede to that because no, he sure as hell fucking doesnβt.
βIn case youβve forgotten, thatβs your enemy,β he states, as though Louis needs reminding of that. βThatβs X, the guy youβve been fighting for far too long a time. The guy weβve been fighting, may I remind you. Why the hell would you end up bringing him to your house?βΒ
He watches Louis swallow, his fingertips inexplicably almost ghosting over the cheek of the dark haired man. βBecause,β Louis says quietly. βThatβs not X. I mean, it is X,β he stumbles over his words, hurrying to explain. βBut itβs Zayn.β His voice sounds small. βThis is the guy who used to be my best friend.β
