Chapter 42: Car Ride

Present

"Hello?"

Louis exhales shakily. "Hey... Can I ask a favour?"

A moan sounds through the phone and Louis shudders, rolling his eyes when realising that Stan had answered the phone while having sex with someone. He clenches his teeth together and waits patiently.

"Kind of in the middle of something," Stan grunts in the phone and then whispering is heard. "What do you want, Lewis?" A sigh of frustration leaves Stan's lips and Louis frowns, heart beating quickly. He looks around his room, mind wandering to the amount of times Stan and him had been in here, both happy memories and sad memories flood Louis' mind. And fearful ones, which sadly outweigh the rest.

"I know this is a lot to ask, but can you help me?" Louis' voice comes out soft and it cracks a little, his nervous persona that Stan brings out in him showing.

"What do you need help with?" He's frustrated, Louis can tell, and this makes the boy feel even more stupid for calling. He bites at his lip and rubs at his face, hearing the girl tell Stan she is leaving and then an annoyed groan from Stan. "What the fuck do you want Lewis?"

"I was wondering if you could pick me up? I am at Rodney's and I didn't know who else to call..."

"You are unbelievable, Lewis. Co-dependant piece of shit. I'll be there when I can." He hangs up and Louis slowly peels the phone away from his ear, swallowing thickly with a frown. He already regrets his decision, anxiety creeping through him and now he can't take it back.

"I'm gonna miss you." Rodney wraps his arms around Louis, pulling him tightly to his chest. "Look after yourself, Louis," he steps back and holds onto his shoulders and looks him in the eyes. "I mean it, okay? If you need anything, call me."

"I will," Louis glances down and sniffles a little, suddenly overwhelmed with sadness at the fact he is leaving his uncle, who seemed to be the only person that genuinely cared now that Harry was gone, besides Niall, of course. "Thank you for letting me stay, I really appreciate it..."

After another hug and another set of goodbyes, Louis is walking outside to the path. He scuffs his shoes along the cracked pavement, eyes wandering around the streets, the familiar sight settling a weird feeling in the pit of his stomach.

Louis hears an awful revving sound and looks to his right, his eyes catching the glare of the sun reflecting off of the familiar car. The dark blue vehicle, the first one Louis had ever bought, clanks as Stan pulls up next to Louis, leaning over to roll down the manual window.

"You getting in or just gonna gawk at me all day?" Even with sunglasses on, Louis can clearly see Stan's eye-roll. He nods quickly and gets into the car-his car, that Stan stole after the divorce.

"Thank you for this," Louis clutches his bag to his chest, eyes trained straight ahead at the road, mouth pressed shut and body subtly shaking a little in the presence of Stan. But after a moment of silence and unmoving, he looks to Stan, who is already staring back at him.

"Why are you here, Lewis?" He asks and Louis begins to slightly panic, hands becoming clammy as they tighten their grip on the bag strap. "And how did you manage to get stuck here? Bit dumb if you ask me."

"I wanted to visit Rodney... And the person who brought me here doesn't like me anymore," Louis whispers the last part, turning his attention back to the road. Stan laughs and fiddles with the keys to start the engine.

"Not surprising." He shrugs and begins to drive out of the side of the road where he parked. "So where's the closet motel we can go to?"

"What?" Louis glares and squints his eyes, head tilting in confusion. "What do you mean?"

"Aren't we going to..." Stan motions to his own crotch, lifting his hips in the air a little with a smirk. "That is why you got me to pick you up, right? 'Cause you wanted me to take care of you like I used to."

Louis throws him an amused look and snorts, turning his vision to the window. "Absolutely not. I called you because I needed a way home and also, I want my car back."

"Not happening." Stan huffs and grips the steering wheel tighter, before groaning and slumping in his chair. "I wouldn't have come if I had known you would not put out. Thought sluts did that type of thing."

"Would you just be quiet for once?" Louis mutters, mouth chatting before his brain could process the words leaving his lips. He stiffens and glances over at Stan, trying to take in his reaction.

"Would you stop looking like you are fucking pregnant? Jesus Christ, Lewis. I thought you were big when we were together." Stan pokes Louis' stomach, finger digging into the flesh harshly.

"Please leave me alone." Louis presses his hand to the throbbing sting of his stomach and tears up a little at Stan's words.

"Where am I taking you?" Stan growls through gritted teeth, glancing at Louis' shoulders moving up and down with soft crying.

"Styles- the building three blocks from that restaurant you always took me to..." Louis tells him, voice thick as he quickly wipes at his eyes.

The car swerves violently and chocked laughter falls from Stan's lips. "Styles?! As in Harry Styles-curly cock sucker?" He laughs more and slaps his hands against the wheel. "This is priceless."

"Don't call him that," Louis growls out, his fists clenching against his thigh. "You are the one who sucks cock like it is your job, so maybe I should start calling you Stan Shaft Sucker?" Louis spits out, stomach churning with anger.

"Calm down, baby," Stan grins and places his hand on Louis' thigh, rubbing it up to his crotch. "Love when you get mad... So hot."

"Don't call me baby!" Louis slaps his hand hard, causing a squeak to leave Stan. "And do not touch me."

Stan's jaw clenches and he purses his lips. "Well if that fag offers to fuck you, you should not let him. You are shocking in bed and even Harry, the most pathetic excuse of a human has better standards than you, you embarrassment."
