Inevitable {l.s.}

Prologue

2 Years Ago

Best mates were supposed to be supportive, trustworthy, and overall good company. Someone you could be yourself around and be completely honest with. Not someone you should ever, ever slept with.

But, sometimes things didn't always go according to the plan...

As for Louis, most nights were spent pressed down in his silky sheets with love bites decorating his skin. Breathless and aching for more. Desperate for another round because he wanted to feel close to his best mate. Not wanting to let him go and be able to wake up next to him.

"Oh fuck..." Louis whimpered out breathily sunken down on Harry's cock. Hand pressed firmly against Harry's chest as he pulled along. Feeling hazy and his blood boiling with those burning hands on his skin. Louis was fucked out it, literally. Desperate for more and yet, wanting to savour the moment. Because he was so pathetically moonstruck with that boy below him and it was sickening.

Louis hated being in love with his best friend whose was beyond unattainable because they made a promise of no feelings. That this special relationship started because Louis was devastated with a broken heart. And nicely, Harry swooped in to pick up the pieces. At first, he was there to console him through his breakup, and they spent a lot of time together. Probably too much time. From the many nights spent binge watching films and lounging around all day, doing absolutely nothing. At some point, one of those nights ended up taking a different turn for their friendship. It was bound to happen at one point anyway seeing how Louis was being with Harry.

They slept together.

Louis at the time was just so desperate and vulnerable. He just needed something, anything to help him move on from his ex-boyfriend. Dating had been off the table. Louis couldn't endure another heartbreak again like that.

Which was why he never thought it'd be possible because he didn't know he was going to fall for Harry as he got over his ex. It was what Louis called his biggest mistake ever. Too many things could go wrong as it was a risky move for their friendship. But he thought maybe there was a chance. They've been at this for a little over a year now, friends with benefits. It had been amazing sneaking around and keeping it between them. Given, it had been a challenge since they lived together and their other flatmate was Niall who thankfully worked a lot of late shifts as he was a barman. But still challenging when Niall came home early and tried to barge into Harry's room because he was up for a late night chat.

They've had a few scares, but never came close to anyone finding them in bed together.

But Louis wouldn't trade any of this for the world. Their sex was simply amazing, probably the best Louis had ever had. No, it was the best. Louis may have had limited experiences as his first time was not even four years ago and he had only ever been with one other guy. But it just felt better with Harry, and every time they kissed Louis' heart skipped a beat.

It was almost pathetic because they both said no strings attached. All because they couldn't seem to stop, it was like a burning passion that'd been under wraps for so long. Louis could almost recall the day when Harry kissed him feverishly. Louis was so sad because he seen that Sean had already moved on, in a  relationship with one of the people, he cheated on Louis with. Harry did whatever he could that night, but nothing could cure how broken he felt. But then at one point, Harry kissed him while they were laying in bed talking and Louis reciprocated. There were hands everywhere, and all Louis remembered for the first time was that he didn't think about Sean. About his crying heart because he had Harry on him, fucking the sadness right out of him.

Since then, Louis kept up with it, they had come to a mutual agreement the morning after that they'd like to do that again. The sex.  As long as no one found out because their mates would tease them to oblivion. Not wanting to make it feel so real.
