Chapter 17: Two Weeks and I'll be Home

As Harry got home he slowly dragged himself up the stairs, trying his best not to wake up his mom. He opened the door to his bedroom and threw himself onto the bed. His eyes felt heavy and his throat felt thick. He was hardly able to breathe or speak. He hated how the night ended. Harry eventually fell asleep after a few hours of him wondering why he and Louis' relationship could never have a full week of no fights. There was always SOMETHING, no matter if it was a tiny argument over who came up with an idea or a big argument over something like this, there was ALWAYS something.

Harry woke up in the morning to his mouth feeling insanely dry and his throat feeling incredibly scratchy -almost like sandpaper- HIs eyes had dark circles underneath them and his curls were stuck to his neck. His eyelashes were attached to his eyelid -he assumed the tears acted like glue and adhering his eyelashes to his eyelids.-

He walked downstairs to the kitchen and grabbed a banana and a cup of milk.

His mom came out from the bathroom and walked over to Harry with a smile across her face. "Good morning my darling. How was your night?" Harry didn't feel like telling his mom about the fight so he avoided the question all together. "Do we have any plans today mom?" Anne shook her head and smiled. She picked up a cup of tea that she had placed on the counter to cool down. "Not that I can think of, why?" Harry shrugged and yawned. "I was just wondering if you wanted to go see a movie or something, feels like we haven't hung out in ages" Anne smiled and ruffled her hand through Harry's curls. "Sounds good to me! I've missed you a ton lately since you've always been with Louis!" Anne furrowed eyebrows and looked towards Louis' bedroom door. "Speaking of Louis... Where is he? I didn't hear you guys come home last night so I expected that you both ended up falling asleep in your room." Harry shrugged and looked down at his cup of milk, picking it up and swirling the milk around so it almost went over the edges. "I don't know," he mumbled.

Anne lowered her head so she was eye level with Harry. "Is there something you would like to share?" Harry looked up at her and shook his head. "Nope." Anne raised her eyebrows but didn't press any further into the situation.

She raised her head back up and finished off her tea before walking it over to the sink and washing the few dishes that were inside it.

"So what movie do you feel like seeing?" she asked as she dried her hands off on a hand towel that was hung on a hook just above the counter. Harry shrugged. "I don't know and it doesn't matter to me so what about you pick it." Anne nodded and turned around. "okay. Now why don't you get up and go shower and do whatever else you need to do to get ready and then we can go grab a bite to eat before we see the movie and then maybe even afterwards we can go shopping or bowling even" Harry nodded and smiled before getting out of his seat and making his way to the bathroom.

Things were a little different over at Louis' house. Louis had woken up and immediately decided to shower since he smelt like sweat. His face was sticky and swollen from crying before he fell asleep.

His pillowcase was stained with tears and so he took off the pillowcase and chucked it in his laundry basket.

"Morning darling," Jay said as Louis walked out of his room. He smiled at her before giving her a hug. "Morning mom." she smiled and swept Louis' fringe across his forehead. "I've missed you so much!" Louis nodded and looked down. "Me too" She smiled sadly and could tell something was wrong. "What's up love? Something's off and I can tell." Louis frowned and looked up. "Nothing" Jay tilted her head and pouted. "Don't lie to me, I can tell when somethings wrong." Louis rolled his eyes and laughed a little. "I knowwww" Jay laughed as well and smiled. "How about you get ready for the day and then we can discuss what's wrong, okay?" Louis smiled and nodded before hugging her one last time and making his way to the bathroom.
