You were university for me

Harry felt as if he was floating over the next few days. He was truly levitating.

His favorite thing to do was still laying in Louis' arm, naked in bed. But spending time with their friends and being out came damn close.

Especially Niall had become their biggest supporter, more than once, they had to take his phone away from him because he wouldn't stop taking pictures of Louis and Harry cuddling.

They still hadn't come out to anyone else. To be fair, they didn't really have many friends apart from Liam, Zayn and Niall. So whatever.

It was the evening of the next dorm party. This time, Jade's dorm was hosting. Harry had never been to one of their parties but he had heard that they were supposed to be immaculate.

"Should we match, Lou?", asked Harry, spinning in front of the mirror, admiring his long legs.

"That's so gay", laughed Louis, throwing a pillow at Harry.

"That's kind of the point", said Harry, throwing the pillow back at Louis.

"Your wish shall be my command", hummed Louis, pulling his shirt over his head.

"What do you wanna wear then?"

"I was thinking black skinny jeans and a band tee?"

"That's all? I was expecting matching pink suits or some shit", laughed Louis and Harry just rolled his eyes.

"You just wait, one day..", began Harry but Louis tackled him onto the bed.

"Never in your wildest dreams, Styles", chimed Louis and kissed Harry lovingly.

"I love you."

"I love you too. Are you scared at all?", asked Harry with a worried look on his face.

"Scared of what? Your fourth nipple? Yes!", cackled Louis.

Very funny.

"Everyone will know that we're together", mumbled Harry, successfully ignoring Louis' lame joke. Wasn't he supposed to be the one with the lame jokes?

"Not at all", smiled Louis.

"I've got you, that's all that counts."

Harry just smiled at Louis, admiring how far they'd come.

"So, what were you thinking? Mac or Oasis?"

"Fleetwood Mac all the way, Lou."

"Fine."

They were on their way to the party, holding hands. A few people crossed their path but no one was sending them weird glances. This really wasn't Holmes Chapel anymore, wasn't it?

"Do you reckon El will be there?", asked Louis.

"For sure, maybe she'll bring her loOoOver", said Harry, ragging Louis.

"Whoever it is, I definitely won the breakup. He couldn't possibly be fitter than you, wee Harold", said Louis with a smirk on his lips.

"Someone is in a good mood", laughed Harry.

"I'll take that as a compliment, by the way", he added.

"You should."

They arrived and the first few people were looking at their intertwined hands. Harry began to feel a tiny bit uneasy but then he spotted Zayn and Liam in the crowd. They made their way over to them and hugged them, them shouting in their ears.

"So proud of you, Louis", said Zayn, patting Louis' back.

"Same, to be honest", smiled Louis.

They saw Jade and Niall walk over to them from the other side of the room.

"Am I imagining things, or are you two holding hands?", chimed Jade.

Louis and Harry just grinned in response and Jade let out a happy giggle.

"I am so happy for you guys. I always had a feeling. I've got to go and tell Jesy, Perrie and Leigh. They're going to be over the moon!", she exclaimed and ran towards the door.

"I've never seen her so excited. Not even when I told her that I loved her. Wow. I need a beer", sighed Niall and Liam, Zayn, Harry and Louis and burst out laughing.

Over the course of the evening, at least ten people came up to them to tell them what a beautiful couple they made. Harry couldn't stop grinning. He hadn't imagined it to go so smoothly. Louis' bashful smile also hadn't left his face, his cheeks had to hurt at this point. Harry was on cloud nine.

As the evening went on, Harry and Louis became more and more tipsy. Whenever they had finished their drink, Niall just miraculously came out of nowhere with a new drink in his hands.

"He has a gift really", said Louis after the fifth time.

"If you want to call it that", slurred Harry but with a happy grin on his face.

"Come on and dance with me, Harold", hummed Louis drunkenly.

"Fine."

They were swaying their hips to the sound of the music, bodies pressed together. Harry could feel Louis' hot skin against his and he was starting to get aroused.

"I wish we were somewhere else right now", he said into Louis' ear lowly.

"What would you do then?", replied Louis and gave Harry an intense look.

"I'll show you later."

Louis just smirked and pressed himself against Harry a little more. This man would be the death of him.

"What the fuck is that", shouted someone loudly behind them.

Harry turned around slowly and saw Jack standing behind them, having a mad glare on his face.

"What the fuck do you want?", hissed Louis and Harry had to hold him back. Otherwise he probably would've jumped Jack right then and there.

"I knew it, you two are fucking. Did you just give the knight in shining armor so you could get into his pants then?", hissed Jack towards Louis. He was clearly wasted.

"Stay the fuck away from me and my boyfriend", shouted Louis angrily.

"Or what?", replied Jack with an evil grin.

"I don't think you got the message mate. Stay the fuck away", said a female voice from behind Jack.

Harry couldn't believe his eyes. There stood Eleanor, angrily glaring at Jack.

"I swear to god, if you don't leave them alone, I will call the police. Don't test me Jack Grickshaw", said Eleanor, still glaring.

"Fine, whatever", replied Jack angrily.

Harry let out the breath that he had been holding.

"What the hell, Eleanor?", said Louis.

"Take it as my way to apologize. I know that you know that I cheated. And you know, I didn't take the breakup well. I'm sorry for losing it. If I had known that you had struggled with your sexuality, I would have been more understanding. At least that's what I'm hoping. Friends?", she said, giving them both a timid smile.

"It's fine, El. I should be the one apologizing, really", said Louis.

"No. No, you are not. I know you, I can imagine how hard it has been to come to terms with being gay. I don't blame you", she smiled.

They hugged and Harry stood there, feeling emotionally bruised. This was just too pure.

"You aren't a bad person, El. I wish everyone could see that", said Louis and kissed her on the cheek.

"Thank you, Louis."

She left and Louis chuckled.

"Wow, rescued by Eleanor. Who would've thought?"

"Not me, that's for sure", laughed Harry.

"Let's go home. I'm done with this party", giggled Louis.

"So over it."
