Autumn Rain {Larry Stylinson Book 2}

Chapter 16

Louis' mind isn't at work at all. All he can think about is Harry Harry Harry. He has missed him so much these last few days. He will not admit it to him, but the guy can say whatever he wants later. Louis will come back and never leave again. These last few days were torture for him. He couldn't eat, couldn't sleep. The only thing he could think about was Harry. He misses his boy so much and it scares him how depended he is on the younger boy.

"Hey, Lou are you okay?" Luke walks towards Louis. He only gives him a small nod, not really wanting to talk. Luke is being really close lately and a bit touchy, too touchy according to Louis. When he was touching his shoulder in front of Harry earlier pissed Louis off. He has already problems with Harry. Their relationship isn't at the strongest for the moment. The last thing he needs is his touchy boss to make things worse.

"Do you want to talk about it, darling?" Luke touches Louis' cheek. The boy flinches immediately and takes a step aside.

« No thank you. I'd rather just finish up so I can go home. Harry is waiting for me." He explains while washing some glasses and putting them on the shelf behind him. He is cleaning everything up in the kitchen right now.

"I thought you broke up with mister popstar?" Luke's tone is harsh and it doesn't pass Louis unnoticed.

"No. We were just in a fight. We still are actually. I'm going home so we can talk it out. That's what adults who love each other do." Louis is a bit annoyed and it's clear in his voice.

"Or you could go home with me. You know there is always place for you, gorgeous." Luke gives him a wink and it disgusts Louis. He feels his stomach turning.

"Thank you for the offer." Louis answers politely. "But I don't think my boyfriend would appreciate that. I'd rather just go home. It has been a while and I really miss him."

"I don't get it, Louis. You are so damn gorgeous and sweet yet you stay with that boy after all he has done to you. He is way too possessive. He is a liar. He is Rude. He uses you. He doesn't show you off. Oh, baby if you were mine I'd let everybody know." Luke pushed Louis against the wall. He can't say a word.

The smaller boy is shaking, tears from fear welling up in his eyes. "Look at you, Louis. Always wearing those tight jeans eh, trying to get everyone's attention. Showing off that cute ass of yours." Luke whispers in his ear.

"Please, Luke. I want to go home." Louis' voice is shaking. He has never been this scared in his life.

"Don't act like this isn't what you wanted. You have been flirting with me since the day you started to work here. Even though it is really a turn on, you don't have to act so innocent, Tomlinson. You are basically gagging for it, aren't you?" The boy starts to kiss Louis' neck while caressing his sides, hands slipping under his shirt.

Louis wants to throw up right there and then. The only man that is allowed to touch him is Harry. Thinking about the curly lad he that he loves so much gives Louis courage. His fear gets replaced by anger. He uses all his strength to push the tall blond guy from him, giving him a kick in the balls.

"I said I don't want you to touch me. I'm not interested in you, I'm interested in Harry. You are a sick fuck. Leave me alone. I can't believe I thought we were kind of friends."

The blond guy looks with open mouth at the brunette. He didn't expect this reaction. He was actually convinced this is what Louis wanted.

"Louis? I'm sorry I didn't know that you really didn't want this. I would never..." He asks.

Louis puts up his middle finger without looking back. "Fuck you. And if you didn't know this either: I quit."

Louis steps in his car and tears fall down now. He doesn't have to put up this act anymore. He feels disgusted that Luke touched his skin. He is disgusted that another men's lips caressed his neck. Louis opens the door of his car and he starts to vomit. He feels so dirty.

It's 2 o'clock in the night. Louis finished an hour ago. Normally it takes Louis a 20 minutes – half an hour to come back home. He still isn't here. What if he changed his mind and he doesn't come back home?

"Hey, Haz. Is Louis still not here?" Niall asks when he enters the living room. "No, he isn't. I'm worried about him. Normally he never comes home this late. What if he changed his mind and doesn't want to talk? Or worse! Maybe something happened to him. God, Niall I'm going crazy. He's my baby. Should I call him?"

Niall shakes his head. "No. Louis told you he would come so he will. He is a man of his word. If he isn't here in half an hour give him a call. Anyway, I'm going to sleep. I'm really tired. I will see you tomorrow, Haz. If there is anything going on with Louis please let me know okay?" Harry nods and the Irish lad disappears into the guestroom.

Harry is biting his nails while watching every minute pass by on his phone. Louis is still not here. Just when he is about to call him, he hears a knock on the door. Harry jumps up and runs towards the door.

"Lou? Lou baby what happened?" Harry's heart breaks when he sees the boy in front of him. He is hysterically crying and shaking. He is in one of his panic attacks. Harry picks the boy up and puts him on the couch, making him sit partly on this lap.

"You know what you have to do, baby. Breath with me. Breath in, breath out. That's it. You are doing so good, boo." Harry kisses his head and rubs circles with his thumb on Louis' back. His arms are wrapped around the smaller boy and he places kisses in hair, whispering sweet nothings. He won't ask Louis now what happened. He will tomorrow morning. Now the smaller boy needs rest.

Harry picks him up bridal style and walks him to their bedroom. He puts him softly on the bed, covering him with blankets. Harry wants to go to the couch. Louis and him still haven't talked anything out and he doesn't want to intrude. He wants to respect the boys' boundaries.

"Hazza?" Louis' voice is raspy from the crying.

"Yes, baby. I'll sleep on the couch if it makes you feel better, okay? If you need anything just call me. You can wake me up anytime."

"Please stay with me." His voice is barely a whisper but it warms Harry's heart. Louis still wants to be near him and he still trusts Harry to be near him.

"If that's okay with you, there's nothing more I want." Harry walks towards the bed and the second he is laying down, Louis clamps himself tightly on Harry. Harry automatically caresses his hair.

"Thank you for not asking any questions now. I promise, I will tell you tomorrow. Just now, please hold me okay?" Louis whispers. Harry is the only thing he wants right now, needs right now. His touch calms him down. Even when Harry hurt him so badly, deep in his heart he knows he is loved by the curly lad. He feels save in his arms. That's what Louis needs now after what happened with Luke, safety.

"That's okay, boo. Try to sleep now, okay? I love you." Harry kisses Louis forehead and nestles his head on Louis'.

"You hurt me, Harry. But I love you too. Always will."
