One Direction One Shots

Photograph (Larry)

Pairing: Not really much of it but Harry and Louis (Larry) big surprise right?

Prompt: Basically, this one shot is based on the song Photograph by Nickelback.

Louis is laying on his bedroom floor, looking through old photos, reliving old memories and good times.

*Just so you’re not confused, Louis is looking at the different photos and he doesn’t really speak. (Unless in a flashback) There are many flashbacks and if he’s not in his room, then it is a flashback. He’s about…say 45 years old here?*

This is an AU story (another universe) and they aren’t famous in this. And just pretend that Harry and Louis are the same age here.

Warning: You may just cry your eyes out like I did so grab them tissues. But I’m a big crybaby…so there’s that.

The first photo Louis came across was of him and his best mate, Harry, on their first day of grade school.

“Do you have your lunch honey?”

“Yes mom! Now, we’ve got to go! We’ll be late!”

“Okay honey, but be careful. Wait! We need a picture. Now smile!” And at the moment, Jay snapped the camera, signaling the flash, and temporarily blinding the younger lads.

“That was a good one! Okay, now off you guys go!” At his mother’s words, Louis grabbed Harry’s hand and began running down the street without a care in the world.

Louis smiled at the memory of when he was younger; he was more care-free then and not as full of worry as he was now.

Louis skimmed through the next few pages, smiling at all the pictures of him and his friends. One page in particular caught his eye; it was of his 8th birthday party.

“Happy birthday Louis!” Harry screamed at the sleepy boy who was still lying in his bed, wearing his superman pajamas.

He yawned and sat up, smiling widely at the curly haired lad in front of him.

“Come on Louis! Everyone’s waiting for you downstairs!”

Without further notice, Harry jerked Louis out of bed and ran towards the stairs. “Harry! I’m still wearing my pajamas!”

“So!” Harry giggled while continuing to drag his best friend down the stairs.

Flash.

A picture was taken of Harry holding the pajama-wearing birthday boys hand, smiling widely.

“HAPPY BIRHTDAY!” at least a dozen voices yelled at him.

The next picture that cued a flashback was taken by their friend, Niall.

“Are you scared?” Harry asked the trembling boy beside him.

“O-of course not.” He replied, smiling smally.

“Well let’s go!” And with that, Harry took off running in the direction of the woods.

Not wanting to be left alone in the dark, Louis ran close behind him, tripping over sticks occasionally. About half-way through their run, something big and dark jumped out, yelling “ROAR!” The two boys stopped in their tracks and yelled bloody murder. Harry jumped backwards and landed in Louis’ arms, both landing on the ground with a loud ‘thud’.
