I'm in Love With A Criminal

~15~

Hi :)

Short chapter. I'm sorry :( It's been awhile since I updated, and I really wanted to get something out quickly. This is kinda just a fill-in chapter with extra details.

Enjoy!

Harry woke up to the feeling of something, very hard, hitting him in the face.

He opened his eyes slowly, raising his hand to block whatever it was, and saw Zayn standing above him with a pillow. He looked down to see Louis still cuddled against his chest.

As he started running his fingers through his caramel hair, he looked up angrily. "What the hell do you need?" He whispered.

"I need to talk to you," Zayn whispered back.

"About what?" Harry urged. "It's like, 2 am."

"And?" Zayn asked. "Louis sure kept you awake for awhile."

Harry's face grew red as he sent daggers at him and pulled Louis closer. "It was only once." Zayn smirked and shrugged.

"Tell me what the fuck you need, or I'll-"

"It's something about Louis."

Harry closed his mouth. Strangely, he felt a sudden anxiety feeling cloud over him. He slowly unhooked himself from Louis and got out of bed. Zayn led him out of the room and closed the door behind them.

"What's wrong?" Harry folded his arms across his chest.

"Remember when I took that saliva test when he was sick?" Zayn asked.

Harry slowly nodded, already nervous about what was happening. He watched as Zayn wiped his hands on his sides.

"Well, I uh... I found something... that you may want to know, especially if you two are... sexually active now?" Zayn said slowly.

"One. Time," Harry repeated.

"It's still sexual activity."

Harry rolled his eyes. "Fucking hell— just tell me!" He urged.

Zayn took a deep breath. "Alright. Basically, when I tested his saliva, I found some parts in his DNA that is not necessary 'normal'" he said with air quotes, "for a male. Yes, some men have it, but it's rare. I tested him during a time where he is most likely to have this happen."

"If you're trying to hint something without saying it, you're making this harder," Harry said.

"Basically, his reproductive system is abnormal from the common male," Zayn said.

"Dumb it down for me," Harry said.

"God dammit, he's fertile," Zayn raised his voice.

Harry's eyes slowly widened. "Does he know?"

Zayn's face lost color as he looked away. Harry's eyes nearly popped out of his skull as he felt himself fill with anger.

Zayn noticed his jaw clench and back up a bit as Harry stepped closer. "So, you've waited a week to say this, and he doesn't know? He doesn't know his own health and DNA?"

"Yeah..." Zayn wondered off. "Are you upset?"

"Are you fucking mental?" Harry said. He bit his tongue hard to not yell. "I'm not upset that he's fertile. I'm fucking pissed off that you waited so goddamn long to tell me and not even tell him!"

"I was scared, alright!" Zayn yelled.

Harry threw his arms in the air. "This is his health and future we're talking about!"

"How far did you go?" Zayn asked.

Harry scoffed. "Not far, but that doesn't fucking matter."

"Any type of sexual activity-"

"Jesus, just say sex."

"Any sex matters, because any moment, any wrong move, and he'll conceive," Zayn said.

Harry sighed. He slapped his hands over his face and groaned. To say he was pissed would be an understatement.

"The good thing is, it's impossible to get pregnant through oral sex," Zayn concluded.

"Oh yeah, thanks. Great to know," Harry rolled his eyes.

Zayn crossed his arms. "If you want, I can get him some pills. And condoms. And extra lube."

Harry groaned louder. "You have to tell him, cause I'm sure as hell not," He said.

"Why me? You're his lover."

"And you're the one with a doctors degree."

"Touché."

The sound of the door creaks open, and Harry turns around to face Louis, who was tiredly rubbing his sweater paws over his eyes. "What's going on?"

"Nothing, Lou," Harry whispered. "Just go back to bed."

Louis eyes Zayn. "Is there something wrong?"

"I was just telling Harry how you're able to get pregnant," Zayn blurted out.

Louis stared at him with shock. Harry huffed and fought the urge to punch him in the face.

He faced Louis, who had started to breathe heavily. His face dropped and leaned forward to grip his shoulders. "Are you-"

Before he could do anything, Louis collapsed into his arms. He hadn't passed out, but completely lost balance from shock. Harry was quick to catch him and pick him up.

As he walked them back into the bedroom, he sent Zayn one final, dark glare. Zayn shuttered in fear, and knew he made a huge mistake.
