Butterflies (l.s)

🦋3🦋

Hey Hazza! How are you today?

Harry's eyes lit up when he got the notification from the kid. He didn't send him anything because he really didn't want to seem like even more of a pedophile, having a conversation with a child but it was Lou that had reached out, again. He just wanted to make sure they were okay. It's not every day a person that young slides into your dms. He only felt glad his recent posts weren't raunchy.

Lou, it's great to hear from you
Was a bit worried from last time

Why? :-)

Cos you didn't tell me about your parents and all

Could we talk about something else?

I just want to know if they're taking care of you, little one

They always have so why wouldn't they now?

Guess you're right
Didn't mean to strike a nerve, I just had to make sure you were okay :)

It's alright Hazza thank u for caring <3

You're welcome <3
Buttttt I do have one more question for you and then we're done, yeah?

Uh ok

You said this is your phone but your account has pics that certainly aren't of a kid

Uh oh

Mhmm, uh oh. I don't like to be lied to, Lou

I wasn't trying to lie honest! It really is my phone!

Okay, fine then, your phone that you share with your dad...? Brother...?

I don't like these questions Harry :(

OK, OK, we can leave that conversation for another time, yeah? How are you? Found any new butterflies, today?

Louis' face broke out into the biggest smile because of course, he wanted to talk about the pretty creatures.

You don't find butterflies silly! They find you! Or they just go on their pretty way and you see them on their way to like work or something!

Work? Never seen a butterfly in a suit before 🤔

Well of course not who would make the teeny suits?

Fairies, maybe?

Oohhhhhh have you ever seen one before?

I think I saw a glimpse of one once
But they slipped away into their teeny mushroom home :(

Why didn't you go after them?!

Cos I didn't want to be a bother

But Harryyyy they could've invited you for tea you're so silly!

Hmm what would fairy tea even taste like?

Honey and nectar and yummy things! Honey is from bees and nectar is from flowers! And butterflies get nectar

You are so smart, Lou, well done

Thank you, Hazza <333
Learnt it all in school, I don't go anymore but I've got it all in my brain

You don't go to school, anymore?

No, why?

Lou, you should be going to school. You're seven.

Well I'm smart and don't need it

Don't your parents let you go to school? Or are you homeschooled?

Pls don't bring em up again?
It makes me really really sad
I don't wanna be sad again Hazz
Let's just keep talking about butterflies

Okay, love, that's alright
But still, I understand you won't trust me right now cos I'm a stranger but I promise you you can talk to me about whatever is going on

It's too much Hazzy
M gonna go now

Oh, alright. Don't be upset, okay? <3

While Louis had gotten out of that headspace and practically shrieked, throwing his phone to his bed and rushing to get himself a glass of water, Harry just facepalmed. He'd overdone it, clearly and might have even blew his chance to help. He just really worried this child wasn't safe.
