How I had missed the sea
I should move here
Just sunbathing, with the sound of waves in the distance
Nothing to do, just breathing
(3:20pm)
Look at you being all poetic
Fuck you
Here you are!
That’s better
Ha-fucking-ha
Ryley has made you all soft inside
M’not
You never told me about your little trip for breakfast the other day ?
(3:21pm)
Never been! Ryley woke up in a mood I couldn't say no to….
So we ended up staying in bed eating Coco Pops with no tea
Oh
This is…
So
Nice
Yeah?
(3:27pm)
So you’re at the beach
With your boyfriend
How serious
It’s our two month anniversary
And you spend it texting me
He’s asleep
So you thought “I’m bored I should text Harry”
(3:28pm)
Are you mad at me or something ?
No
Why should I be?
Ni 🙄☘️
(3:28pm)
I swear to you, the guy is the most oblivious person in the world
Your chat with H @cellrryZ
(3:29pm)
You tell me
(3:30pm)
So what fun things do you have planned there?
Are you going to go sightseeing, just hit the beach?
Or spend your time in bed 😏??
Just quiet time yk
Lazy time at the beach, stroll around
Just being together
Look at you !
The guy who didn’t want to date
A proper romantic man now
🖕🏻
(3:31pm)
How is it going with your fwb?
Ben?
Or Brad?
Because there’re several ???
I have a thing with B names 🤔
There was a Brice few months ago
He was French… I think
And yeah ☺️
I’m a multi tasker
I thought you were looking for the big great love
Well…
It’s on hold
Meaning?
Meaning that’s not your business
Easy pumpkin
I’m just trying to understand
(3:32pm)
Understand what?
(3:34pm)
How is it that you, who were looking for a relationship, are just sleeping around?
Ouch
While I, who was running away from anything serious, ended up in one?
(3:37pm)
You tell me
Why Lou?
Why no one want to bother with me ?
Maybe you haven’t found the right person yet
Or maybe I’m just too stupid
Or annoying
Or ugly
(3:38pm)
Hey no pumpkin
Don’t talk about yourself like that
1/ you aren't stupid. You’re the king of excel and all that boring shit
Heeeeyyyyy
2/ Annoying ? You? You’re the most interesting, fun, weird guy I know
I’m blushing
Stop
Sometimes you’re annoying but I think it’s what makes you kinda cute
I mean funny yk
🙄
(3:39pm)
3/ Ugly? You don’t sound ugly
I’m sure you’re pretty
(3:45pm)
Is your bf pretty ?
(3:54pm)
Lou?
You’re leaving me on that
Nice 😒
Ni 🙄☘️
(3:55pm)
He thinks I’m pretty 🥰
(4:02pm)
And I think this isn’t fun anymore
(5:28pm)
???
(5:32pm)
This whole thing with Louis’ being your crush AND being my friend’s roommate while I can’t say a damn thing
It’s getting on my nerves to lie to Liam
(5:33pm)
Wow
Okay
Sorry Ni
I didn’t think of that
I know, boo
But don’t you think it’s time to be a little upfront about some things ? With Louis?
About what?
Idk
Anything
But please stop making me lie
I’m not sure if it’s going to end well
Fine
Your chat with H @cellrryZ
(5:35pm)
Right
So
You want to hear something funny?
I live in Birmingham
Ah
I live in the same fucking city as you
Funny, right?
(5:36pm)
Maybe we already bumped into each other
Maybe we took the same bus
Maybe we danced together at a party
Maybe we have common friends
Maybe we already fucked
(5:38pm)
But I don’t remember fucking a Louis so probably not
And apparently I’m only fucking with the B letter lately…
But yeah
The cat is out of the bag !!

Liam
Payno
Lima
Where the fuck are you??
(5:41pm)
Are you playing with your balls?
(5:42pm)
Bowling balls I mean
Not your own little balls
Even though I don’t know if they’re little
Fucking hell
Come here
(5:43pm)
Liam James Payne
I need you
(11:20pm)
Fuck. Where are you?
I can’t sleep
(11:28pm)
What happened?
Where’s Ryley?
Asleep. Always out after an orgasm
Ewww
Everything is going well on this side
Ok, what is it then?
He lives in Birmingham
Ryley?
Yes I know.
Not Ryley
Harry
Ah, should’ve known it was about Harry.
And?
And he’s know for weeks that’s where I live and he didn’t tell me.
And?
(11:29pm)
We’re supposed to be friends.
He should’ve told me.
Ok
Would it have changed things if he did?
I don’t know
Maybe?
What would have changed?
We could have met already
(11:30pm)
And for what?
You already have a boyfriend.
Omg stop with that
Harry is a friend
or so I thought
A new friend you’re talking to every fucking day, even during a romantic weekend with your boyfriend?
Well, I’m texting you too
Yes. About Harry.
(11:31pm)
It doesn’t matter
Did he tell you on purpose that he lives somewhere else even after you told him you live in Birmingham?
No.
I told him a couple of weeks back and he didn't say anything
Or even hinted that he also lived there.
And this afternoon, boom!
(11:32pm)
He drops the bomb.
The bomb 🙄
Oh, fuck off!
I mean, what do you want me to do?
And why is it so important?
Ugh you don’t get it 😑
Clearly I don’t
Your chat with H @cellrryZ
(11:40pm)
I’m starting to panic a little
Lou?
(11:57pm)
Please text me asap
Don’t leave me on read 🥺
Ni 🙄☘️
(11:57pm)
I told him where I live six hours ago, he used his safe word and never replied
Fuck!
(12:04am)
His safe word?
Not explaining to you
It’s about Louis?
It’s always about him lately
Ugh 😣
Ok, boo
Give him time. I’m sure you’ll be back to being in love by tomorrow
😑😑😑
Tell me if you need anything
Thanks 🥺
Are you alone?
No

(7:32am)
Hey
OMG
Hey!
Why are you up so early ?
Didn’t sleep well
What’s your excuse?
I let your notifications on
Hmmm
(7:33am)
So.
What the fuck?
I’m so sorry
I panicked when you said you lived in Birmingham.
Why?
Idk… it felt too real all of the sudden
And then I didn’t know how to tell you.
(7:45am)
Lou?
(7:48am)
Again.
What the fuck?
You had plenty of occasions to tell me.
I panicked
Yes, you said that
I’m sorry
(7:51am)
What else do you hide from me ?
Maybe you’re really a bald 40yo or something.
Who knows?
Not me
I’m not.
But it’s not technically a lie, right?
Huh?
I mean, I just didn’t tell you.
Right.
(7:52am)
Look, I know nothing about you except that you study numbers.
Oh and that you work part-time at a cafe.
And you cannot commit to more than hookups.
Ouch ok.
The rest is all things I think are false bc you made jokes about it
You don’t live in Paris
You are not bald
Niall is not a real fwb
Do you see how it looks to me?
Yes I can imagine
But I promise that what I told you is true.
I just didn’t say that I live in Birmingham.
I swear, Lou.
On Irma’s life.
Maybe don’t involve your pet in this convo.
I told you a lot about my life
And you couldn’t even say “oh I live there too btw” when I told you I live in fucking Birmingham.
(7:53am)
Is that why you didn’t want to give me your number?
Yes
Fuck
In a way
I was scared
Have you ever seen me on campus or anywhere?
No. I don’t think so.
How would I know anyway?
I don’t know what you look like
(7:55am)
Are you really mad?
(8:03am)
Honestly, I don’t really know how I feel.
I’m so sorry Lou.
Yeah
I know you are
(8:04am)
Look, I don’t think I can do this right now.
Ryley is waking up
So, I’ll go enjoy my weekend with my boyfriend.
Talk to you later I guess.
(8:04am)
Ok
I’m just glad you didn’t block me tbh
I wouldn’t
Ni 🙄☘️
(10:21am)
Sorry for last night.
Hope I didn’t wake you up
Also, I talked to Louis earlier.
He didn’t block me 🎉
But he seemed mad
(10:30am)
Oh well.
Can’t wait for him to find out you know his roommate.
This will go very well
Niiiiiiiiii
😩😩😩😩
What?
Am I wrong?
(10:31am)
No 😩😩
I’m proud of you for telling him part of the story though.
Now you should work on the rest.
Yeah I know
Can I wait a bit longer?
…
Not sure he’s going to talk to me for a while anyway.
Do what you think is best, Haz
Yeah I know

(8:31pm)
Hey
Still alive
No news from you for a day so I’m starting to get worried
Everything’s good
(10:30pm)
Sorry we were out all day
(10:35pm)
How is it going ?
With Ryley?
Who else?
Of course!
Great! We’re having an amazing time
The rental is really nice
I don’t want to come back home
Then don’t
But Batman is going to miss you
Just Batman?
(10:36pm)
Me too
A little
Yeah
Sure you’re okay?
Yeah
Just tired I guess
(10:41pm)
Have you talked to Harry?
Yeah
And?
Yeah
Okay
When you’ll be ready, I'll listen
(10:55pm)
Thanks

Hey Lou
It’s been four day
Hope you got home safely
(5:07pm)
Yeah I’m back
Oh Hi!!
Hey
So…
How are you?
Great!
Good
(5:10pm)
Going to see my family tomorrow with Ryley
Oh
Wow
That’s quite a commitment
That wasn’t planned, right?
No but yk… Our romantic seaside getaway made me want more with him
(5:13pm)
That’s good
So I asked him and he was on board !!
Now that we’re in love, I don’t see why I should wait
Sure
So…
Sorry pumpkin
But I’m gonna leave *our* city again for a few
Ni 🙄☘️
(5:14pm)
He’s so pissed 😭😭😭
I can feel the daggers he’s sending me through the screen
And he’s fucking in love
I should stop texting him while I can still back down from this mess
RYLEY
(5:14pm)
Weekend in Doncaster? Are you in?
And meet your family??
Why not!
I’d love to! But that’s a lot of pressure
They know about you
They’re gonna love you
I love *you*
Me too
Your chat with H @cellrryZ
(5:16pm)
Enjoy!
Hope you’ll have a great time
(5:17pm)
We will
Ni 🙄☘️
(5:21pm)
Tell him the whole truth, boo
You’re digging your own grave here
I don’t know if I still want to
Fuck
Boo?
You’re right

(11:06pm)
Are you sleeping ?
No
Can you come over?
I thought Ryley was here
Are you asking me for a threesome ????
🖕🏻
No
He left an hour ago
(11:07pm)
What’s going on?
I need a Lilo cuddle
Lilo???
Shhhh
Bring some ice cream and come cuddle me
🙄🙄🙄
One day I will say no to you
No you won’t
No I won’t
