Will I ever get over the fact that the thing that made Harry happiest about getting to tell a fan that he and Louis were dating was that the fan said she knew they were before he confirmed it? And that Harry was probably so happy because it was the beginning of the hard closeting, the careful behavior, but he was happy there were still people out there who 1) recognized what was happening and 2) were happy to hear the truth when they’d been told repeatedly up until this point that no fan would want to show up to their gigs and support them if they were gay/out?
But Harry got an opportunity, a white whale of a moment in March 2012, to tell a fan to their face when asked and she was happy to hear it and that made Harry do this with his face?
That’s a lot.
Fan: Are you and Louis dating?
Harry: [thinks long and hard, decides to nod]
Fan: You are?
Harry: Yup. [looks at Zayn to see if he heard]
Fan: I figured.
Harry: [head snaps up]
Me every goddamn time like it’s the first time:
