Hold me

...

After the song...Harry...

Well he froze.

He couldn't move. His brain was still processing the song and he now knew...at least he knew what the main cause of actions was. It was clear as day.

The call...that day. The last day...their last day. He cried. Walking to the backstage. His feel taking him to where they wished. He needed to find Louis. He needed to find his Lou. Now! He needed to hug him, kiss him, tell him he's missed him. Tell him that he's not leaving again. That he knows now, and that he's sorry, they can have another chance. That no matter how hard it would be to swallow their feelings and their past, they could try one more time.

This couldn't be over.

Their story wasn't over.

His feet brought him to the changing rooms. Louis should be there now. He opens the door, but the inside was empty. He panicked and started looking around the backstage, but there was no sign of him anywhere. He asked everyone, looked everywhere, panic filling him even worse.

Had Louis left him again. He had said he was tired of all this, he had said he was tired of having to pretend.

He found James. He went there tears still on his eyes.-"James, James, I can't find Lou? Where is he!?James please! I need to find Lou!"-He said tears streaming down even faster.

He should have believed the letter Jay sent him, he should have believed when Zayn said it was important. He should have asked Louis one more time about the truth, before torturing him and scaring him away. He should had shown maturity. He should had done what Jay told him to do and give him a second chance.

"Parking lot, he's leaving."-James said.-"Harry wait-..."

"I've waited enough. I wanna go home James. I'm tired too now, I just want to go HOME."-Harry almost yelled and ran to the only person he knew was his home. He ran hoping Louis was still there at the parking lot. Hoping he hadn't left him here to perish alone.

He ran almost out of breath and once he was outside he searched the parking lot. There it was! Louis' car driving away. But Harry was not letting that happen. So he ran and ran than jumped in front of the road to stop the car.

Hopefully Louis hit the brakes in time, stopping right at his foot. Petrified of having almost him a human.

Harry waked over to the passenger seat and opened the door climbing inside the car.

"Did you lost you mind? You know I almost hit you with a car?"-Louis said his voice seeming a bit raspy, like he's been crying.

And Harry knows he has. Because he always cries alone, Harry barely ever sees him cry...he always wanted to seem strong. And he was. Oh god Harry cant even begin to imagine what they did to him.

Harry chocked on a sob, he shouldn't had taken the weight all on himself, the could had been strong together.-"Just drive."

Louis was concerned, he didn't know if Harry knew by now.-"Where?"-He asked.

"Home. Please let's go home. We need to talk about this. We need to fix this. I can't bare to lose you ever again."-Harry said now getting into a fit cry.

Louis tried to touch him, and maybe hold him, but he did not want to anger him, so he drove. Maybe a bit to fast.-"Shhh, please we're going home now. It's all going to be alright okay?"

Harry didn't answer. Too overwhelmed by the whole situation.-"I want answers...all of them."

"I will give them all to you, but first I need you to relax."-Louis said softly, and placed a hand on his thigh which Harry felt warm from.

Louis parked the car on the side of the road, and got out, opening the door for Harry.

Harry followed him. They had reached Louis house. It was dark now, probably midnight.

Louis opened the door and got inside. Freddie was not here for the night, as Zayn and Liam accepted to babysit him. They where so happy to hear that Louis was going to tell him that they didn't even consider the fact that Freddie has a big dog too and they'd have to babysit them both.

Harry walked inside, Louis leading him to the living room as than he ran upstairs to get him some proper clothes to change from these uncomfortable ones. He came downstairs already changed for himself into a sportive grey costume, holding some fitting warm looking clothes.-"Change first. I'll make us something to eat."

"I'm not hungry."-Harry said softly as he took the clothes from Louis.

"I'll make us some tea than. With some biscuits?"-Louis said and Harry nodded.-"Go change in my room. First door, on the left side of the corridor."

Harry left to change, and Louis went to the kitchen, starting to prepare some tea for both of them.

Harry entered the room. Louis room. It was a simple room. A huge bed, paintings all over the walls, fairy lights handing around them. Plants on each corner, a guitar over the bed with an open notebook and a pen over it. A framed picture of him and Freddie over the bedside...Simple room, but everything was a part of Louis, he knew Louis picked all these himself. He's changed so much since he left. He just hoped he still knew him as much as to remember him for.

He changed into the grey sweatpants and a white hoodie, both fitting him very well. He placed his other clothes on the side, washed his face on the small bathroom of the room and walked downstairs again.

To find Louis in the kitchen preparing the tea and a plate of biscuits. He took them on a tray and placed them on the living room where Harry was sitting. He sat down and offered Harry one of the mugs.-"Hot tea, with milk and no sugar, just how you like it."

Harry took it.-"Thanks Louis..."

Louis took a sip of his tea and tried to relax. This night had drained him.

Harry did the same, than he placed the mug down and sighted.-"Louis...I need to know-..."

"Harry, not tonight. We've said enough tonight. I'm tired. Can we just...stay?"-Louis said softly.

Harry took his mug from his hands and placed it on the table besides his. He walked over to the side and took a blanket for both of them. He sat on the couch and invited Louis.-"Tonight we stay...but tomorrow you tell me everything and there will be no escape for any little detail."

Louis smiled genuinely and crawled under the blanket and into Harry's open arms.-"I don't want to escape. I'm done running and hiding. I'm already home."-He whispered and rested his head over his chest.

Harry blinked back a set of tears.-"Hold me. Promise me. Be with me."

"Always."-Louis mumbled and held him just as Harry did.

That...that was all they needed, at the end of the day, no words had been spoken yet, but they already knew. That's all they will ever needed.
