Rock Me (Larry Stylinson AU)

Chapter Six

Chapter Six:

"You leave him alone," I snap back at Nick who was still standing there, on the corner with his arms crossed. He started walking toward us.

"Harry, get in the car. Now," I order him. He quickly gets in the passenger side of my car.

"You think you can take my boyfriend?" Nick asks with disgust. He uncrosses his arms as he walks closer to me.

"He is not your goddamn boyfriend. Leave him alone!" I yell back at him.

"Oh, that's right, you're in love with him, huh? That's how it usually is. A guy falling in love with his best friend, yeah," Nick says and laughs. You can tell he's more high than drunk. He walks just fine but you can see it in his eyes. He took something that's making him seem so unafraid, so ready to kill. He's not alert fully but he is at the same time. It's almost creepy.

"Just leave us alone!" I yell at him. He runs over to me, very quickly. He grabs me and pushes me up against a wall of the building I parked by. He holds me by my jacket against the wall, his face in my face.

"You really think you can come up here and ruin my night?" Nick says with his teeth clenched. He pushes me up against the wall even harder, more pressure.

"Get the hell off me, Nick! You're really asking for it!" I yell at him, threatening to kill him. I try to push him away from me and I succeed.

"Asking for what? This?!" Nick says and punches me right in my jaw. I immediately feel a little blood trickle down my lip.

"No, this you asshole!" I yell back at him and punch him a few times in the face, jaw, forehead, anywhere I could until he fell to the ground, helpless. I walk away when I think I've defeated him.

"You ready to go home?" I say to Harry, who's watching all of this from inside my car.

"No, watch out!" Harry yells. Before I know it Nick jumps on top of me and pulls me down to the ground. He starts beating me and beating me until I bled even more from my mouth. I can taste the metal taste of the blood in my mouth. He was even bleeding too. It was dripping down on his shirt from his lips. I roll him over so I'm on top of him. I start beating him with every last bit of energy I have. He came on me first and I have to defend myself. His mouth is bleeding so much and I know I'm probably not in the best condition either. I can see a little bit of blood droplets on the sidewalk from both of us. I get up, a little shaky, and put my foot on top of his chest to keep him from getting up.

"That's what you get when you mess with Louis Tomlinson," I say to him and push on his chest a little more with my foot. I wipe away the blood from my mouth as I walk back towards my car. I get in and watch as Nick gets up and runs away as quick as he could. What a wuss.

"Thank you so much, Louis," Harry says gratefully. He has so much joy in his eyes and I'm glad that I'm the cause of his joy. I give him a quick hug and we drive off, back to my house.

"I'm going to let you stay at my house tonight. I don't want you staying by yourself after all that," I say to Harry. He pulls the blanket over himself to keep himself warm.

"That's fine. Thank you so much, Lou. I really appreciate it," he says to me with a smile.

We pull into my driveway and into my garage. We get out and step into my house. I turn on the heater so it's nice and warm for us.

"I'm going to change into some cleaner clothes," I say with a laugh hinting at my dirty, bloody t-shirt.

"Alright," Harry laughs. I walk into my room and pull out a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt and quickly slip them on. I look in the mirror to see my lip ring gone and a bit of blood there. Nick must have pulled out my lip ring while we were fighting. My other lip ring is still there but the this one is gone and there's just a hole with a little blood left around it. I wipe off my lip with a wet, warm washcloth. I walk downstairs to find Harry sitting down on my chair, watching TV with the blanket around him. He looks kind of sad but relieved. But I still see some sort of sadness in his eyes though.

"Hey, is everything alright?" I ask him. I walk closer to him and pull up a chair to sit next to him.

"I'm alright. Still a little shaken up after that," Harry says. He doesn't even look at me. I put my arm around him.

"Louis," Harry says, still looking at the TV. I turn to look at him.

"Yeah?" I answer him.

"I don't even know why I ever dated Nick. I never actually loved him," he says with pure disappointment in his voice. He's still not looking at me. This makes me wonder if he loved someone else the whole time. Like, who is it that he really loves?

"It's alright. It's all over now," I say to him.

"Have you ever," Harry pauses with a sigh, "have you ever fallen in love with someone that you know you shouldn't fall in love with?"

I pause myself before I say anything. He has this tone as if he's confessing something to me. I know something is up for sure but I can't quite grasp it.

"Yeah, right now actually," I admit. I don't want to tell Harry that I love him because he's probably in love with someone else. It would hurt me to know that he loved someone else while I tell him that I love him. That's why I need to keep my mouth shut.

"Well, that person, he's a friend," Harry says. He still isn't looking at me. I watch him as he starts fidgeting with the frayed edges of the blanket that's wrapped around him.

"Louis, I love you, alright?" he says. I pause, just taking it all in. He loves me too? I never would have guessed that he loved me.

"I can't believe I told you that," Harry says under his breath.

"No, I'm glad you told me that," I reassure him.

"What?" he replies and shoots his head around to look at me finally.

"I love you too, Haz," I confess to him. I never thought I would feel this great telling him this. I hadn't planned on telling him my secret but I have this great feeling inside me now that I just told him the truth. It's like I'm free.

"You do? I thought you were straight?" Harry looks at me, surprised and a bit puzzled.

"I'm bisexual. I've never really told anyone but my mum. She was the only one who knew. Now you know and now you know that I love you very much," I confess even more. Harry gives me a tight hug but this hug isn't any regular friendly hug. This hug is more of a passionate hug.

"I love you. I've never loved someone as much as you, Louis," Harry says as we pull away.

"I love you so much too," I say to him. We smile at each other for a second until Harry leans forward to plant his lips onto mine. I put one hand around his waist and the other behind his head, pulling him closer. Our lips move together in a perfect motion. This was the first time I have ever kissed Harry and it was just how I imagined it would be. This is exactly how I imagined it in my dreams; everything. It's perfect. He lets his tongue glide across my bottom lip and I let a small moan at the feel of it. We pull away to look each other. His green eyes staring back at me with the most joy. I have ever seen in them. I haven't seen him this happy since we got a record deal. That was the one time I've seen him so overjoyed besides tonight.

We decide to sleep in my bed tonight; both of us. I take off my shirt and get into bed. Harry does the same. He lays right to next to me and puts his arms around me. I put my arms around him and hold him close. I can't believe he's mine now. He nestles his head into my neck and plants a few kisses just under my jawline.

"I love you," Harry says to me as I gently let my fingers slide through his curls.

"I love you too," I say to him. I give him a quick kiss on the lips.

"Goodnight Harry," I say to him.

"Goodnight," he says and he immediately falls asleep in my arms. I hold him there in my arms and lay my head on his. I let myself drift away to sleep, thinking about tonight, thinking about how long I've waited for this, thinking about the beautiful curly-haired boy in my arms. I finally close my eyes and all I can see is Harry staring back at me with those sparkling green eyes and that smile. I'm the cause of his happiness and he's the cause of mine.
