This is what Harry's room looks like in the past chapters. Remember it. It will be important for the present chapters to come.

He runs up the stairs of the Castle in Eroda, bursting with excitement because he gets to spend more time with Harry. He reaches Harry's door but before he turned the knob he heard talking inside so he stopped and leaned his ear against the door and listened.

''He's like obsessed with you''

''Yeah Alexander is right. He's like in love with you or something''

''I mean.....you guys are not wrong. He does follow me around everywhere.'' The familiar voice says.

''Is he not annoying? Like he's in love with you and he pestering you.'' Prince Avery's voice asks and Louis's heart sinks. He knows who they are talking about. He knows who they are referring to.

They are talking about him. His eyes get glassy but he doesn't react and instead he just listens. His body frozen in time. He hopes that Harry would defend him. Stand up for him but the next thing he hears shatters his innocent heart into millions of microscopic pieces.

''Yeah you guys are right. It is annoying. I agree. I think he's in love with me-'' Harry says with a laugh that felt mocking, insulting and uneasy and that was it. Louis didn't need to hear anymore.

Louis foolishly fell in love with a boy. Harry was affectionate towards him all week. He led Louis on and then dropped a bomb. Louis ran. He ran past Ed on his way out and Ed looked at him confused.

''Where are you going?'' Ed asks clearly seeing the tears streaming down Louis's cheeks.

''Home''

He ran right out of the castle and kept running down the familiar roads until he reached the Royal airport.

Tears streaming down his cheeks, he boarded the jet.

''Take me home Robert.'' Louis tells the pilot still crying.

''Your Highness, you know I can't do that. Not without the permission of the King.'' Robert says but Louis is too hurt to care.

''Just please... I-I can't stay here another minute Robert...please'' Louis pleaded and for some reason although reluctant and hesitant, moments later they were up in the air and on their way home.

A few hours later, they reached the airport. Louis's things were still in the room at Harry's Castle. He had left them behind but he had plenty back at his own Castle.

''Thank you Robert. Thank you.'' Louis says tears still streaming down his cheeks. He had been crying the whole flight. About 6 hours. He never knew one could cry so much.

''I'm going to get in trouble for this but anything for you You Highness'' Robert says a worried look on his face.

''I'll make sure nothing happens to you Robert'' Louis says trying to compose himself but he is unable to do so.

''Do you want me to call a vehicle?'' Robert asks his worry mixed with fear.

''No....I want to walk back. It's only a short distance'' Louis says exiting the jet and walking away.

As he walks towards the Castle gates, Earl is standing there pacing back and forth. Worried and scared and Louis naturally assumes that Robert had informed him. As he sees Louis Earl, a man Louis has never seen run, ran towards him and hugged him. Earl's hug was comforting so Louis held on, the tears now falling faster.

''Your Highness, are you alright? Where is the King? Where is everyone else?'' Eark asks.

''They'' Louis sniffled.

''They are...they are still there'' Louis says crying. ''They don't know I came back'' Louis says gripping onto Earl's tailcoat tightly.

''Oh Your Highness. What is the matter? Why are you crying? You never cry. Who did this to you?'' Earl asks as they walk into the castle, Louis's body exhausted from crying. Louis was still crying and he avoided the question. Earl didn't press it any further but just comforted Louis.

Louis walked into his bed chamber and stayed there. He cried for a week straight. He did not come out of his bed chamber and he barely ate. A week passed and his family was still not back although they were informed of Louis's abrupt departure but Louis knew his father had work to do.

A week was all Louis cried for and after that, he had no tears left in him. His heart hurt. His sensitive heart was shattered. He fell in love, was led on and then talked behind his back by the person he fell in love with and although to another it may seem a silly thing, for the young Prince who had never experienced love and friendship of someone close to his age, he needed an invisible wall to protect him. He needed the wall to be very thick and unbreakable and in order to do that he had to cut all emotional ties with people. If your first friend and love were to do this to you, imagine the people to come. It was a form of protection in Louis's mind.

Finally when all his tears had dried up, he rang for Earl.

''Your Highness, we are all very worried for you. Should I inform the King?'' Earl asked Louis. Earl had not already informed the King as Louis requested him not know.

''No. He has more important things to tend to'' Louis says his voice going cold.

Earl looks a bit shocked but doesn't comment on Louis's tone. Earl knows Louis is hurt. Louis's never been hurt before.

Louis felt something switch off in him. A flame went out. It was blown out and just like that the coldness and darkness took hold of Louis. Something he never knew he had in him. Earl watched it unfold. Helpless and unable to do anything.

''Are you alright Your Highness?" Earl asked.

Louis looked around his light green bed chamber. He looked a bit disgusted.

''I want everything redone Earl'' Louis's voice was icy. ''Everything is to be black.'' He says. He remembered his colourful clothes and such and his face curled in disgust. ''Give my clothes away Earl. I don't need them. Every single one. I'm getting new ones.''

''Your Highness-'' Earl is cut off by Louis.

''Before I turn 18 in a few weeks time'' Louis says now finally getting off his bed and reaching his bathroom. He opens the door and turns to Earl once more.

''Even the bathroom is to be redone in black'' Louis says and enters the bathroom.

He is no longer the loving and caring Louis. He's no longer the sensitive and emotional Louis. No. He's cold, icy and sharp. Heartless and emotionless. To Louis he is a monster. A monster created by none other than Prince Harry Styles of Eroda.

When his family came back, his room was redone. They had done it in a week. The King although shocked was too busy to mind and so was the Queen. His mother. Louis didn't feel anything. His 18th birthday was not grandly celebrated at his request but instead a small family celebration that Louis felt nothing at. He felt unchanged.

Louis discovered the deep Web in the hidden room he had done himself and there began the evil. The darkness manifested deeply in Louis. He ran every morning until his legs gave away. It had become routine. He took the lives of the evil people in the world and although he was doing good, he was still taking the life of another. It didn't haunt Louis's conscience but he still saw it fit to punish himself. His food intake dropped down to nothing. He ate only his lunch as not to arouse suspicion amongst his family.

I hope this explains why Louis is the way he is and I know it's a small event but to young and innocent Louis, it was crushing. You can understand how sensitive Louis's character was when he was young through this. What does it mean by Harry's laugh was uneasy? Does Ed tell Harry that Louis was crying when he left?
