024.

I am sorry this is so short & stupid and ohmygod x.

Liam is so fucking stupid. Oh and he's a whore. He actually really can't believe himself to be honest and it must have been something he ate because he's been acting pretty stupid lately.

And it's not like it's that hard of a decision. he either likes Louis or he doesn't. He either likes Zayn or he doesn't. he really doesn't know why he's doing this. because of the adventure? The euphoria of it all? Maybe. Maybe in reality, he kind of wants zayn to step up his game.

Because everything is kind of getting boring, believe it or not, and he wants something, anything to happen. Not that it hasn't been eventful, it has, but he needs something more interesting. something that will have him bouncing on his toes for more.

He needs this because he wants to make sure Zayn really likes him. he didn't take him for nothing obviously, but everything has been spinning out of control and it's not the same as it was from the start. he wants to see other sides of Zayn that he hadn't gotten to see yet.

That's his goal right now, so maybe with Louis in the picture, that side of Zayn will come out. or maybe he'll get himself and Louis killed. either way, maybe it wouldn't hurt to try?

" we should get to know each other sometime, catch up on things, you know?"

And maybe this was Louis trying to ask him out but the whole adrenaline thing Liam was feeling earlier has kind of died down and this is where sensible Liam comes in.

All this time, him and Louis have been friends, friendly co-workers, until Zayn swoops in, kinda steals him really, and make Liam realize he isn't exactly as straight as he thought he was.

Liam admits that it would be pretty mean to have all of zayn's 'work' go to waste just so he can go on a date with Louis.

But then again, it's not like it would be cheating if zayn and him aren't actually together. Though he kind of wants them together and then at the same time he doesn't. It's really one of those things where he's content where he is. Doesn't want any changes.

But Louis is a change.

"Right?" And oh yeah, Louis' still here.

"Oh right, yeah because that's what friends do. Maybe I can bring zayn and we can.. Yeah"

wow that was a really awkward sentence but ouch, he kinda just friend zoned Louis. And it was kinda for the best.

He thinks he should try to get that side out of zayn with his own work, not with Louis' help. it would only hurt the both of them, and Liam isn't a user, ok he kinda is or was but he's not anymore.

Point is, he's not Sophia. and he's not trying to stoop down to her level even though he kinda already has. Before, Liam has admitted to liking zayn, maybe a little more than he should, so why change that and make himself more confused than he already is. he's kind of always confused to be honest.

"Oh um actually I'm kinda busy, maybe we could try for another time." yeah it was awkward and even louis' whole confidence aura is shattering.

But now that Liam thinks about it, what really would be shattering would be if zayn found out about this. god, he's so fucking stupid, first niall, now louis.

And Liam doesn't even know what to do with himself at this point. he told himself he'd only talk and how many times is he going to lie to himself? Obviously this is something that has grown to him, and it's quickly turning into a really bad habit that's going to be hard for him to break. Zayn's totally going to break his face.
