Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles have been friends ever since they met each other in the hospital in Doncaster. Louis was crying in an empty waiting room when Harry came in. Both boys were four years old when they saw each other for the first time.

When Harry saw Louis crying, he immediately had pity for the unknown boy. Without a word, Harry sat down next to the boy and wrapped his arms around him. Then he pulled Louis on his lap in a comforting hug.

"Shh, it's going to be alright." Harry whispers in the boy's ear, just like his mother did with him when he was sad. He tried to calm the boy down because Harry didn't like to see people upset. After twenty minutes, Louis was finally calmed down enough. He looks up to the stranger who comforted him. Louis didn't know who the boy was, but was very grateful.

"Thank you." Louis said very softly. The other boy's green eyes were then staring into Louis beautiful blue ones, which are now red and puffy from all the crying.

"Can you tell me what happened? Why are you so upset?" Harry asked with true curiosity written in his eyes. He swept the tears from Louis' cheeks with the sleeve of his sweater. Louis looked sadly to the ground as he answered. "My mother died today. She had lung cancer." A new tear found his way down across Louis' face but was once again swept away by Harry.

"You do know that your mother will Always be with you, don't you?" Harry asked.

"How so?" Louis asked while he looked up to look at Harry with confusion in his eyes. Harry smiled slightly and placed his hand on Louis' chest on the place where his heart was.

"You will carry her with you in your heart." He said. His mom told him exactly the same words when his grandmother died a few months ago. Hary didn't even know if the words he said were true, but he didn't like to see Louis upset so he said that words, hoping that they would comfort Louis.

"Thanks, Curly," Louis said with a smile on his face and embraced his new found friend in a solid hug.

"Curly?" Harry asked a little bit confused.

"Yeah, I don't know your name and you have curly hair, so I call you Curly. My name is Louis." The blue-eyed boy said and held out his hand, so Harry could shake it. Laughing, Harry shook Louis' hand.

"My name is Harry, but you can call me Curly."

And that was the start of a beautiful friendship. That day in the hospital, they learned to know each other better and better, until Harry's mom told her son that it was time to leave. The two boys were too young to have a cellphone, so they didn't have a way to keep in touch with each other. Two years, they didn't see each other or heard each other, 'till the day came that they both were put in the same class together in the first year of primary school.

Harry was very nervous for his first day in primary school. He hoped to make many friends and for a good class for the next six years because in nursery school he was bullied.

When he walked through the school gates he was met by a way to enthousiastic teacher.

"Hello there, big boy. Can you tell me your name?" She sais very cheerily and Harry muttered silently his name. The teacher looked at her list and then she yelled. "Harry! You're in my class. You were my last student so come on, you can meet the rest now." And she dragged Harry with his arm to a classroom, which was already filled with pupils. Harry was too shy to look at the other students in the room, so he just looked at his feet.

"Okay class, on each table is a sticker with a name on. If you find your name, please sit down at that table. The person who sits beside you will be your friend for the rest of this year. Now, go find your seats." The teacher smiled as everyone in the classroom started to search for his or her seat. Only Harry thought it would be a good idea to wait a bit. When everyone was seated, he walked over to the last empty place and indeed the sticker with his name on was attached to that table.Quickly he sat down on the chair and looked at the person who sat next to him. It was a boy who was wearing a striped shirt with suspenders. His eyes were blue and his hair brown. He looked familiar to Harry. Very familiar.

"Louis?" He asked with disbelieve. The boy beside him turned his head and when he saw Harry, a huge smile plastered on his face. "Curly!" He yelled and tackled the curly haired lad in a hug. They both fell to the ground with the force Louis launched himself at Harry. The entire class was staring at the two friends, who found each other again after two long years.

The rest of primary school was a good time for the two boys. They became the best of friends and nobody had ever seen a friendship as strong as theirs. When they went to high school they were still together. The principal gave them the same classes. Even after school, they were inseparable. One week, Harry stayed at Louis house. The next week, Louis would stay at Harry's house. 

In their first year of high school, they got more friends.

First, Liam Payne joined their group. He was a friendly, brown-haired lad. He was the kind of boy with straight A's or what girls see as the hot kind of nerd.

Then, halfway through the first year, Niall Horan moved to Doncaster and decided to go to the same school as Liam, Louis and Harry. He was Irish and immediately joined the group. His hair was dyed blond and his eyes were blue, but another sort blue than Louis' eyes. 

And then, somewhere in the beginning of year two in high school, Zayn Malik joined their group. He was the school bad boy and hadn't had any friends before, but when Louis and Zayn had to do a project together for English they became friends. The bad boy was actually a sweet and caring lad. 

Even though they were all friends, Louis and Harry's friendship had always been stronger than their boundings with Zayn, Niall and Liam. And of course was no one surprised when Louis and Harry announced they were a couple. Louis and Harry had finally confessed their feelings for each other. They were in the last year of high school when Louis fell on top of Harry. They were in Harry's room and Louis, being the clumsy one he is, had stumbled over his own feet and fell on top of Harry. Both boys were staring into each other's eyes for what seemed like ages and then Louis had Leaned down. When his lips touched Harry's the firework had started to erupt into both boy's bodies. 

"I love you." Louis had whispered between two kisses and Harry said the same. Three days later, Harry had asked Louis to be his boyfriend in front of the whole school and when Louis said yes, the whole school started clapping.

The end of that year, they both graduated and then, they decided to live together in a flat. The lovers were very happy together and got a job in a restaurant. Yup, they both had the same job in the same restaurant.

When Louis turned 21 he got sick. He had a fever and was coughing a lot. Harry insisted that Louis visited the doctor. Finally, Louis gave in and went to visit the doctor. This time without Harry. And he was glad that his boyfriend didn't come with him. The doctor took photo's from Louis' lungs and the results were bad. Louis had lung cancer and it was expanded through whole his lungs. The doctor said that he would die in three weeks. A treatment wouldn't help anymore.

When Louis came home from the doctor he didn't say the truth to his boyfriend.

"It's nothing major, just bronchitis. It will be over in three weeks." Louis said with a smile on his face. That night, Louis and Harry had sex for the first time. It was the best night of their lives.

And now, three weeks after that day. Louis and Harry are lying in their bed, watching a movie before they go to sleep. Suddenly, Louis starts coughing uncontrollably. He jolts up and runs to the bathroom, where he bends over the toilet and throws up. And not vomit, but blood. 

Harry comes in and sees Louis vomiting blood. He knows something is wrong and walks closer to his boyfriend. 

"No, not now, I still have one day." He hears Louis muttering.

"Louis, what's going on?" He asks desperate for an answer, but he doesn't get one. Louis collapses on the floor. Rapidly Harry grabs a phone and calls an ambulance.

"Quick, my boyfriend... I don't know what's going on... Please come soon." He yells in the phone and not much later, paramedics come into the room. They take Louis with them in the ambulance.

Harry drives as fast as possible to the hospital. When he arrives, he storms into the intensive care and starts yelling for Louis. A few nurses calm him down and say that he needs to wait in the waiting room.

The five minutes in that room were a hell for Harry, not knowing what's going on with his boyfriend. Then a nurse comes in and takes Harry to the corridor in front of Louis room.

"His cancer has expanded and ... It's time to say goodbye. I'll leave you two alone now" The nurse says and walks away.

Harry just stands there. Shocked. Lung cancer? Since when? Then he walks into the room. Louis is lying on the bed, his eyes closed and barely breathing.

"Lou?" Harry asks, not believing that this is his boyfriend, the boy with who he grew up. Louis eyes open and he turns his head. He smiles as he sees his boyfriend.

"Lung cancer? How long did you know this?" Harry asks as the tears start to fall.

"Since I went to the doctor three weeks ago. Don't be mad at me, Hazza. I didn't tell you because I wanted you to be happy in the last three weeks. And I got cancer from my mom. I don't blame her. But Harry, I don't have long left. When I'm gone, I don't want you to cry over me. I want you to move on and search new love, but don't forget me. You see, three weeks ago I wanted to ask you something, but when I heard the results of my photo's I decided not to do it. If I had asked you I'm sure you would have said yes, but... I guess you can keep this now as a goodbye from me." He reaches to a small velvet box on the bedside table and gives it to Harry. Harry opens the box and a ring comes into his view.

"You were going to ask me to marry you?" Harry asks and Louis nods.

"Yeah, but don't wear the ring on your finger. I want you to search new love. Wear it as a necklace." Louis eyes close and when they open again they lost all their energy and colour. For the last time, Louis looks to Harry. "Goodbye, Curly, I'll miss you." Then his eyes close for good.

The heart monitor stops beeping and Harry snaps.

"No, Louis, I love you! Don't leave me! I can't live without you." He shouts and several nurses run into the room. They grab Harry and try to make him leave the room. The closed eyes from his dead boyfriend are the last thing he sees before the door closes.

"LOUIS!"

That's how a beautiful love story ends in the place where it all started.
