Say Something

Chapter 28

PRESENT

The machine is still going crazy, there is nothing the nurses or Harry can do. Harry feels helpless all he wants is for Louis to say something, anything.

"Louis keep fighting baby. You got to keep fighting. We are gonna be free. We're almost free. Just keep fighting Louis so I can hold you in my arms. Louis say something please, I'm giving up on you. Louis!" Harry says holding Louis's hand

The machine flatlines.

Louis dies.

"Time of death 24:28," the doctor says looking at the clock.

Harry's body goes numb, he begins to cry. The guys are attempting to comfort him but it's not working. Harry is frozen still holding Louis's hand.

"Mr. Styles I need you to let go of his hand now he's gone." The doctor says

Harry stays frozen, as all his memories of him and Louis flash around his head. He sees the day they met, their first kiss, their first date, living together in Princess Park, singing together, all their sweet moments together, their wedding, their first fight, their breakup, them getting back together, and fighting for their love. 

"Mr. styles I need you to let go of his hand now, it's time we cover his body." The doctor says

Harry snaps out of it and lets go of Louis's hand, he stands up and proceeds to walk out the door when he looks at Louis and sees the doctor covering him up. Harry loses feeling in his legs and collapses to the floor, Liam catching him. Liam holds Harry as he cries, the rest of the guys run to his aid to comfort him. Eventually, Harry gets up and they walk out of the room, he is distraught with tears flowing down his face. Liam looks at Harry worried, they walk into the waiting area, all of Louis's friends and family stare at Harry, he begins to cry and looks at Liam.

"I can't, I can't tell them," Harry whispers.

"I can tell his family Harry, so you don't have to," Liam says with tear-filled eyes

"Thank you, Liam."

"Louis is dead," Liam says bursting into tears.

The waiting room is filled with cries of those who loved Louis. Harry stands looking at his shoes, Anne walks over to him.

"Oh Harry, oh my H. I'm so sorry, Louis loved you. Oh, I hate to see you hurt like this." Anne says

Harry looks at his mom and cries, his mom holds him in an embrace only a mother can, as he cries. Lottie has her arms around Daisy and Phoebe, Harry lets go of his mom refusing to look at Louis's sisters. Lottie walks over to Harry.

"H, H look at me."

Harry looks up at Lottie and starts crying.

"Lottie I'm so sorry! I'm sorry Lottie! You lost your brother. I'm so sorry."

"H, H shhh. I'm gonna be okay we're gonna be okay. My brother loved you so much, he fucking loved you. What can I say you two were soul mates. We're gonna get through this and we will never forget him." Lottie says crying

Everyone shares hugs and sympathy; they all trickle out of the hospital. Liam and Harry are the last to leave. Liam is driving Harry home; they get in Liam's car and Liam looks at him. 

"I'm going to stay with you H. You shouldn't be alone tonight." Liam says

Harry nods as Liam drives off, the car ride is silent. They arrive at Harry's house and go inside. Liam makes a bed on the couch. 

"Harry, if you need anything wake me up, cause I'm here for you."

Harry nods and walks to his room; he gets in his bed too mentally exhausted to take his clothes off. He looks at a picture of Louis and him hugging that sits on the nightstand.

"My boo bear my precious boo bear may you rest easy," Harry says looking at the photo as the tears drip down his face.
