“Are you telling me that your proposal went--like viral or something?”
“Well--I mean--if I had to say--viral? I would maybe call it--popular amongst--”
“Amongst who, Harry? The entire city of Chicago?”
“Ummm--well, maybe viral is a better word for it because it’s definitely not just Chicago. So uh--I guess Zayn doesn’t really tell Enes everything?”
Louis narrows his eyes even though no one is in the room to see it. “Why?”
“Because he tweeted about it? And linked Sam’s instagram post. And so some--sports people? Seem to have retweeted that? Some sports people who are not just in Chicago?”
Louis looks at the post briefly before quickly swiping out. “Jesus fucking Christ.”
“I mean, I turned off my notifs on everything, so I’m not really sure anymore--” Harry trails off. “Did you know Enes knew LeBron James?”
Oh god. His chest tightens, and he feels like he can’t catch a breath. Is this what dying feels like? “Please tell me this is not a relevant question,” he manages to say in a strangled voice.
“Mmm. It’s a little relevant.”
Louis starts pacing the room, his mind a tumble of thoughts that he can’t piece together into a coherent sentence.
“Do you remember seeing Jennifer Hudson there? Because I don’t remember seeing her and--”
“Please just--stop talking.”
