Harry pov:
I wake up still with Louis in my arms I looks at the time, it's 7:46. We have been slept for an hour and a half. I look down at Louis, he looks like an pure angel, the way the moon light is bouncing off his cheekbones make them stick out more bringing out the light of his natural features.
I've never seen him like this but I like this. Waking up with him in my arms. Seeing his beautiful face when I wake up. I go to wake him up I gently rub his shoulder saying in a calm voice "hey lou, you gotta get up." He groans in a deep voice. He looks up at me and immediately blushes and turns his face away. A couple seconds late he looks back at me, rubbing his red eyes from crying and in a raspy voice he says "thanks Harry, I really appreciate what you did for me."
I don't say anything but instead just smile. He gets off my lap and climbs back into his own seat, I already miss the feeing of his body against mine. I was about to ask if he wanted me to drop him off but before I could he says "there is a store that sells water just 10 blocks down from here, then we can start the dive to your cabin."
I look at him and ask him if he's sure, he says yes and that he said he would help me so that's what his going to do. I don't know what to say. He just got beat up then cried for an hour and now he's still willing to help me. He's one special boy.

Louis POV:
I wake up to a voice saying that I need to get up I immediately recognize it as Harry's. It take me a second I but I realize I'm on Harry's lap. I groan and look up at him. I can tell that he was asleep too and I blush turning my face hoping that he didn't see that. I compel my self and look back up at him. I can't believe what he had just did for me, caring for me like that.
I look up to him and say "thanks Harry, I really appreciate what you did for me." He doesn't say anything but I get one of his adorable smiles, that smile he never gives to anyone.
I get off his lap and immediately want to curl up on it and stay there forever. I realize I have to make it up to him for what he just did, I tell him that there is a store 10 blocks down and that we can stop there before we head out.

The look on his face is pure confusion, it's kinda adorable. He asks me if I'm sure I say "yes, I said I would help you so that's what I'm going to do." We start the drive to the next store, he parks the car and says "stay here. I don't want a repeat of last time, if you need me call me and I'll come back." And with that he smiles and leaves.
I keep on thinking on how he went from not talking to me at all to caring about me like this. Did something change? Not to mention he has this bad boy personality and looks but he's such a thoughtful person.
I keep on going deep into my thoughts and then I'm interrupted by my side door opening. It's Harry he puts a bag on my lap then goes around to put the water in the back, gets into the driver side and says "I got us some snacks and drinks for the car trip, I don't know what you like so I kinda just guessed." I smile and said thanks.

Harry's pov:
We drive in silence for about 10 minutes then I say "hey..want to talk about what happened at the store?" Louis just looks at me and says sure, I can see the fear in his face and before I can comfort him he starts talking.
"Uh- the per-person who yelled at me w-was my stepdad, after I came out as g-gay he wasn't to happy a-about it." He says through shaky breaths "he-he kicked me out at 18, as-as soon as I graduated. That's why me and Ni are roommates, this wasn't the fi-first time he's done something like this. He's done it before just no one had proof because he did it at my house and there are no cameras there."
I can hear him start to sob, I reach over and grab his hand. He squeezes it and trys to reign his breath.
I tell him he doesn't have to tell me any more if he doesn't want to and in between gasps he says "thanks harry, for understanding." He squeezes my hand and stays silent for the next bit.

Louis POV:
Here I am. Sitting here holding Harry's hand after spilling all my emotions out on him. I haven't told anyone this besides from Niall. Harry seemed so supportive, he didn't rush me and didnt make me tell the entire story, he let me do it on my own time. I look down at out hands, his hand is so much bigger then mine. It has some tattoos that you can see going up his arm, they are blocked by his jumper and I get curious.
I take my free hand and roll up his sleeve, he looks at me weird but doesn't say anything. Once his sleeve is at his elbow I start looking at what tattoos I can see. There are birds, what look like song lyrics, a bunch of little tattoos like a lock and nails.
I start tracing the tattoos, I can see Harry looking out of the corner of his eye every so often and blushing. As I'm tracing one of his tattoos I feel him flinch then giggle. GIGGLE?! I squeal inside my head. I just heard this buff man covered in tattoos GIGGLE!
I couldn't help but smile and do it again. This time he shakes his arm and looks at me with this look that's filled with injoyment and soft look that I've never seen on him before.
He says "stoppp. That tickles." I giggle and stop. I go to turn on the radio. Still smiling at what Harry just did.
