the day it happened.

𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘱~
louis looked horrified as he saw the letter and pictures of him and harry scattered around his table. his father had found out.

mark grabbed the back of louis' neck and pushed onto the table. louis' eyes were filled with tears threatning to fall on the pages below his face. one. two. three. the droplets were falling like the rain outside. and they were not stopping.

nor was the constant sound of insults coming from mark's mouth. "i told you to stay away from people like them" "fuckung faggots" "i dont want you to be one of them" stuff like this was creating a layer around louis' head and before he knew it. everything went black.

the next time when louis woke up, he was on his bed and his mother was sitting beside him with his hand in hers. louis stirred up from his laying position. jay noticed the sudden movement and saw her son waking up. she placed a small peck on louis' forehead. "i'm so glad you're okay" she said. "what's wrong mum" louis asked still a bit shocked from the previous events.

jay looked at him for a small fraction of time, unsure of what to say. " yo- you had a panik attack love" she started "i was downstairs when i heard your father shouting, as i ran up the stairs i saw him standing beside you and asking you about something very angrily. as soon as he dunk your head on the table, i ran to you and pushed him off but by then you were already passed out" she gave out a shaky breath before continuing all the while louis looked at her almost emotionless. "with the help of some staff, i tucked you in thw bed and i haven't lett you since but-" "but what mum?" "b-but you were saying something in your sleep." "you said something like; 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦, 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵. 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬, 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦; and then you went quiet again."

louis not wanting to let the words affect him, shut his eyes tightly and cuddled into his mother. jay comforted him till he fell asleep again. when jay was sure louis was asleep, she quietly slid out of the room and went over to hers. she saw mark siting on his rocking chair with a glass of wine on the small table beside him. 'it's now or never' she thought.

"mark" she whispered slowly, mark looked up to her with a complete emotionless look. "what" he said coldly.
" i- i wanted to talk to you about something "
"and?"
" well i've been seeing how you have treated louis for the past couple of day and i don't think it's good "
"what are you trying to say?"
"what i'm trying to say? i'm trying to say that it's not okay for you to just go to him beat him up for something as simple as love" jay replied her voice raising a bit.
"you really expect me to believe that i'll be okay knowing that my son likes guys instead of a normal human?"
"there is nothing ab-normal about a guy liking other guys. it's completely normal. why do you not understand this?"
" it's not so fucking normal for me okay? i hate people who like the same gender. is it so hard to get it through your mind?"
"yes it is mark. my child is there crying his eyes out for something as simple as love and you are here with a bigger ego than love for your own fucking son"

by this time both of them were shouting at each other. jay trying to make things better and mark trying to tell her that he did nothing wrong. in mark's eyes, it was wrong for people to like the same gender and he was being stubborn about it.

after alot of fighting and shouting, jay couldn't take it anymore. she stormed out of the room and towards louis. as she entered the room, she saw a really scared lottie clinging onto louis with tears streaming down both their faces.

jay's heart broke into a million peices seeing the scene in front of her. she sat by louis and hugged both of them mumbling a 'sorry' every now and then. soon enough both the sibling were asleep exhausted by the things that took place.
