    Summary

    "You're scared," Harry accused, frustration edging into his voice. "Scared that if you let me back in, things might not be the same. But I can't live with this distance between us."

    Louis clenched his jaw, battling against the vulnerability bubbling beneath the surface. "It's not that simple. We can't just pick up where we left off. We are not teenagers anymore."

    Undeterred, Harry closed the gap, breath mingling with Louis's. "Maybe it doesn't have to be the same. Maybe it can be better."

    Louis's resolve wavered, his gaze softening, but fear quickly returned to his eyes. "I can't risk it."

    In the charged silence, Harry's gaze fixated on Louis's lips, an unspoken understanding passing between them.

    "Harry…" Louis warned, his voice a barely audible plea, their breaths quickening, anger transforming into a potent undercurrent of desire.

    Louis turned to face him again, their noses brushing. He looked up through dark lashes, deep blue eyes wide and shining.

    "Tell me to go, and I swear I won't..." Harry's breath hitched as their eyes locked, the undeniable physical pull between them erasing the words that had driven them apart. "Please, tell me to go," he begged once more.
