I'm all yours (l.s. au)

9. At some point they needed to talk

Since two weeks, Louis has been super distant towards Harry. They only had a little bit of sex, no punishments, they weren't really cuddling, eating together, not even talking that much. And they were sleeping separated again. Louis also got snappy really easily and was often really rude towards Harry. That is, when he was home after all. Because Louis was practically spending his whole time anywhere but his apartment. He was at work really long or went out a lot.

Harry was worried at first, that something was wrong with Louis, but by now, he figured out, what was going on. Harry bored Louis. Louis was getting tired of Harry, he wanted to get rid of him, to find another sub. Harry knew it. He was pretty sure, Louis already had a new one, considering how often he went out. He never saw Louis as a cheater, but now he can't let go of that thought anymore. He tried talking to Louis, but the smaller man always got mad at him. One time, Harry was genuinely scared, that the dom would start beating him up, that's how mad he got.

But Harry still stayed, because he fell in love with the guy. And he didn't want to let go of whatever they had just yet. He wanted to fight for it.

So when Louis came home late night, Harry was waiting for him in red lace panties and high knees, a collar around his throat and he even put high heels on. He looked super hot and he hoped, Louis would like it. But Louis reaction was completely different.
"Harry, what is this supposed to be? It looks stupid, take that off and leave me alone." Ouch, Harry thought. That hurt a lot. That also wasnt a 'bad mood' anymore, that was just plain mean of him. Harry looked down, trying to hold his tears in. He turned around, and as he was about to walk back into his bedroom, he heard Louis calling "red is not your colour. Makes you look even more pale, than you already are!"
After that comment, Harry surely could not hold his tears back. He flopped on his bed and cried into the pillow.

It took Harry years to build up his self esteem, after he was bullied in high school. And here was Louis, tearing it down with one sentence. Harry hated, that Louis had this power, this effect on him, but he couldn't change it. He just wanted his old Louis back. The nice one, that whispered sweet nothings in his ear. The one that cuddled him. That run him baths with lots of foam. The one, that always made him smile. The one, with whom he had amazing bdsm sex. The one, that had the best punishments. The one, he fell in love with.
But that Louis seemed to be gone. Literally, because Harry heard the front door fly shut. Harry just kept laying on his bed, crying his eyes out over a guy, who didn't even care. Well.. not anymore. Because he did, once. Harry was sure of it.

It was already 11 p.m., Harry already had dinner, cleaned the apartment a bit, took a shower, and watched three episodes of friends, but Louis still wasn't back. Harry was getting insanely worried. But then he thought, Louis just needed some air, and that he was gonna be okay. Or he was fucking some other guy in a club toilet. Harry wasn't sure anymore.

So he decided to just head to bed. It was hard, falling asleep, because his mind was clouded with Louis. But around two hours later, he finally fell asleep. It wasn't very peaceful though, because the blue eyed boy also invaded his dreams. Good ones, where he was dreaming of the nice memories they made and a great future together. They were even married and had kids. But also bad ones, in which Louis was cheating on him and leaving him behind. So basically just a representation of reality.

The next morning, Harry was woken up by the sound of something hitting the ground. He rubs his eyes and slowly stands up. He walks out of his bedroom, only to be met with a startled Louis, who accidentally threw the lamp over. Harry expected Louis to be drunk or hungover, or whatever. But he was met with a perfectly clean, nicely dressed Louis, who just arrived this morning. He definitely stayed over somewhere else. Maybe with a guy, he was cheating with, Harry thought.

"Louis what the hell?! I have been worried about you, because you just left yesterday. And you were away the whole night?! Were the fuck have you been?!", Harry was actually mad at Louis at this point. "Its none of your business", Louis snapped, and was about to walk away. Not this time, Harry thought. At some point they needed to talk. And that point was now. So he grabbed Louis arm. "Harry, what the fuck, let me go!", Louis yelled. He strongly pushed Harry away, making the younger boy stumble backwards and hit his head on the shelve behind him. And then everything went black.
