Chapter 16

Louis knew he had to give answers to the lads sometime, he went downstairs and saw the boys sitting there.

All the lads looked at him with confusion and pity. He gave them a weak smile. 'Lads. Look what happened today was not something I am supposed to share, it's Harry's place to tell, not mine. I am sorry but I cant tell you lots." He said with a weak smile. The lads looked at him with eyes full of sympathy. Liam was the first one to speak, "Louis, we understand. Just know we are here for you and Harry." The other two lads smiled and nodded. "Anyway we should be heading home now. Tell us if you or Harry need anything." Zayn said. "Yeah we are happy to help. I just want Harold to be okay." Niall said with tears in his eyes. Louis hugged the lads and said their goodbyes.

He then went to check up on Harry. He saw the boy sitting up in the bed panicking and crying. Louis ran to his side and hugged him. Harry flinched away but when he noticed it was Louis he hugged him back tightly. Louis was stroking his hair and that seemed to relax the curly boy. "I am so sorry Louis. I ruined your and your friends day." He said while looking at the ground. "Hey hey, you didn't ruin anyone's day and they are your friends too. It was not your fault. Understood?" Harry hesitantly nodded. Louis just hugged him again and started to tickle the boy in his arms. "Louuuu stoppp!" He finally stopped but then errupted in laughter.

"Come on let's go downstairs." Louis said and took Harry's hand and went downstairs together.

"Hii boys! Dinner is ready. Take a seat. " Jay said.

*********

"Jay you have to teach me how to cook such a lovely dinner. I love it." Harry said while moaning and let's just say Louis didn't feel shivers when he heard it.

"Harry aren't you a sweet little boy." Jay said while blushing. "I would definitely teach you someday."

Harry just nodded. Dinner went by quickly as everyone made some small talks in betweem. It was Louis's and Harry's turn to do the dishes. So that's what they were doing.

"Lou? What did you tell the guys?" Harry asked hesitantly.

"Don't worry Harry. I didn't tell them anything as it was not my place to say anything. I just told them you will tell them once you are ready." Louis said while washing the dishes. At that moment Harry knew that he had never met such a gentle and kind boy in his whole life. He couldn't be more grateful. He had tears well up in his eyes. He went and wrapped his arms around Louis and rested his head on Louis shoulder. Which sent shivers down both of their spine. But they were so naive to the feelings they had for each other to acknowledge it.

"Thank you. It means a lot. And I will tell the boys tomorrow. Hopefully it will go well." Harry whispered.

"Harry I support you no matter what. I will be by your whenever you will tell them and I can guarantee they will support you too. They all cried for you today. It hasn't been such a long time since we met but trust me we all love you like one of us. Niall is a bit more sensitive for you. He loves you like a brother." Louis said and then planted a kiss on top of Harry's head. The curly lad cooed at the touch.

"Now let's stack these fucking dishes up and head towards the room." Louis said while laughing to which Harry joined.

*********

It was the next day; all the lads were in Zayn's house having a sleepover because his parents were out of town for the night.

"Lads. I want to tell you all something." Harry announced. All the lads immediately looked up to him. Louis was sitting beside Harry. Liam and Zayn were sitting opposite to them and Niall was sitting on the floor beside Zayn.

"Umm... yesterday what you guys witnessed was one of my episodes?" He said more like a question. Louis rubbed his back in assurance.

"I have schizophrenia. It means I get visual and audio hallucinations. There are voices in my head telling me to do things." He choked up at the end.

All the lads got up and hugged Harry. All the four of them. Harry just cried in their arms. They eventually pulled away and Harry's eyes were puffy and red.

"Harry just know we are here for you. Always." Liam said.

"We will be by your side for each and everything." Zayn added.

"You are not alone in this Harry. We love you." Niall said through tears. Since the day they met Niall had a soft spot for Harry. He loved him in a brotherly way.

"We are all here for you Hazza." Louis said and wrapped his arms around the curly lad.

Silence took over the room. A comfortable one. Louis broke it.

"Boys I also want to tell you something.  I-I have Ptsd. I cut myself. I have been doing it since Stan....." Louis said while looking at the ground. Not being able to meet the guy's gaze. Suddenly he felt arms engulf him in a hug.

"I am so sorry guys. I didn't tell you because I was afraid." He said in between sobs.

"It's alright Louis. We love you. We will never judge you." Zayn said while kissing the top of Louis's head.

"I am sorry we didn't know sooner. " Liam said.

"I am so sorry Lou." Niall said with tears streaming down.

They pulled after what seemed like eternity.

"Enough of the sad vibes. Who wants tacos?" Louis asked trying to cheer everyone up. It worked.

Soon Harry pulled Louis aside to another room and clung onto him like a Koala bear. Louis melted into the touch and hid his face in the crook of his neck. They were like puzzles. They fit together perfectly. Like a lock and a key.

"You have no idea how proud I am of you. What you did out there was amazing." Harry said and kissed Louis's forehead.

"I was able to do it only beause you were by my side." Louis smiled against Harry's skin. "Now come on we have to leave for your doctor's appointment in an hour."

Harry groaned and said, "do we really have to go Lou?"

"Yes Hazza. And I looked up some therapists, who can help you cope up. I will be with you each and every day." He said while pulling away.

"You need to go to therapy too. I can't see you cutting yourself." Harry said frowing a little.

"No need to frown Hazzy. I haven't cut in 3 weeks and I will go to my old therapist. For you. Now lets eat then we have to head out" He said while smiling. The smile that broke on Harry's face was the cutest thing that Louis had ever seen.

*******

"Harry Styles." The nurse called. They both got up and headed towards the doctor's room.

"Hello Mr. Styles. I am Dr. Cooper. I will checking your vitals and make sure that you are in good health and your injuries are healing. And who might be this gentleman?" She asked while eyeing Louis. A anger sort of feeling rushed towards Harry and he felt jealous?

"I am Louis. I am his friend. I want to stay with him for the appointments." Louis said.

"It's fine with me. So Mr. Styles......"

********
"See Harry I told you, you are doing just fine. There are many improvements in your injuries." Louis said with a grin. Harry smiled back and nodded. He finally felt happy for a moment. The grin that was spread over Louis's face made his inside float. That moment he knew he had feelings for the blue eyed boy. The feelings he shouldn't have, which could never be reciprocated. Little did he know that Louis also felt the same way.
