NO ONES POV

"Oh Louis," Niall is the first to say before running over to Louis on the ground.

"How much did you hear? Why are you here? Fuck, what time is it?" Louis chokes through his sobs.

"We heard most of it" Zayn tells Louis having Liam nod. "God, I'm so sorry."

"Don't be sorry, love." Harry says walking over to Louis. Harry crouches down and starts rubbing Louis' back as Louis leans into his chest and cries. Each of their hearts breaking hearing the sobs from the small boy they newly acquainted a few days prior. 

"Louis, you really need to tell us everything. We want to help you" Liam tells Louis, they knew he was tired.

"I'm sorry, it's too much. I don't want to mess up our friendship." Louis whispers looking up from Harry's biceps. The only thoughts running through Harry's head of how pretty Louis was even when crying.

"Love, we are fine. We just want you to be okay." Harry laughs making Louis let out a watery laugh. It seemed Louis sat their contemplating if he should actually say everything before taking a breath.

"When I was 11, my parents disappeared and left me and my four sisters alone. I've had to take care of them since. The last 6 years I've managed to have enough money to pay for a tutor to teach all of us. I work every night just so I can pay for groceries and bills. I cook dinner, I pack lunches, I make sure my sisters get their homework done and so much more and it's so stressful. I don't have enough money for a phone and I can't hang out with you guys because of having to do everything as much as I want too," Louis continued for a couple minutes before completely breaking down in tears again. "Lottie is right, it is my fault."

"No it's not your fault love, you can't help what happened." Harry says kissing Louis' cinnamon swirl hair.

"Thank you for trusting us with all of this, Lou." Niall says hugging Louis for what seems like the millionth time, Louis looks at his watch to check the time.

"Shit, I'm gonna be late for work." He says trying to wiggle his way out of Harry and Niall's grips.

"Louis calm down, you aren't going tonight." Harry says causing Louis' eyes widen and his breath quickens. "No, I have too. I won't be able to get groceries next week" Louis says really trying to force himself away from Harry.

"Louis listen to me, my dad owns building. I'm gonna talk to him about letting you and your sisters live there until you can get a job that doesn't include you working all night." Harry explains.

"Haz, you don't have to do that" Louis tells him.

"Haz?" Harry says smirking at the boy in his arms.

"I- I didn't mean that it slipped o-" Louis says before feeling Harry's lips crash against his for the second time today. The kiss last for a couple more seconds before they hear a cough coming from Zayn.

"Come on Lou, were gonna help you cook dinner while Harry talks to his dad." Niall says. They help Louis off the ground and start getting to work.

"I should probably go talk to Lottie also." Louis says. He walks into the girls room closing the door behind him

-----------------

"Hey?" Louis says unsure as he knocks on the door. The twins smile happily as Fizzy replies a quick hey and Lottie staying silent. "Hey, could you three leave. I need to talk to Lottie, you can go sit in the kitchen with Niall, Liam, and Zayn."

The girls nod and leave the room, now leaving Louis and Lottie by themselves.

"Lottie, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to not come home. I was up all night and my friend-" He stops himself after saying friend because calling Harry just a friend is a bit weird, "and he took me to his house to sleep."

"Do you like him?" She suddenly asks catching Louis off guard.

"Yeah, I do," Louis breathes with a smile. Lottie gets up and hugs Louis.

"I'm sorry for being mean Louis." She whispers. 

"It's okay, I understand your frustation." He says.

"Your new friends are cute," Fiz whispers sticking her head in the door. "Are any of them dating anyone?"

"Niall and Liam are together, Zayn is too old for you, ma'am." Louis laughs as he stands up and leaves the girl's room.

"Did it go well?" Niall asks and Louis returns a nod, next thing you know Harry is walking in with a smile on his face too.

"My dad said he will set up a place for you guys and that it will be ready in an hour." Harry smiles having Louis rush over to him and giving him a hug. 

"Thank you so much, Haz."

"Of course Princess" Harry smiles, "Now come on we have to pack up you and your sisters' things."
