"Harry!" Louis jumps back
"Lou?"
"I- I swear, I can explain!"
Harry has tears rolling down his face and he leaves the room
"Shit, no Harry! Harry wait, please come back!" Louis shouts from down the hall, quickly rushing after him
"Save it Louis! You told me you were going to stop! You promised me!!" Harry was full on crying now
"I- I'm so sorry... Harry please don't go"
"That's not fair of you to ask Lou"
"I know. But I love you Harry. I can't stop loving you. You're everything to me" Louis was now crying
"If you really loved me... you would've never done that again."
"I promise I love you! I love you so much I'm so so sorr-"
"How long Lou? How long?" Harry asks
Silence
"TELL ME!" Harry shouts, tears flooding his eyes
"... I- I swear, it's the first time since we talked, i swear" Louis said looking down at the floor
"Why?!"
"I'm so sorry"
It feels like that's all he's able to say at this point, because he doesn't want Harry to know it's because of what he just found out
"Tell me!"
Louis is still looking at the ground
Tears fall down his face and they hit the ground. His blood quickly following it

Harry and Louis are at Harry's place because Niall isn't home. They're on the couch watching a movie together when Louis reaches out to grab the popcorn from the table in front of him. He didn't notice that his sleeve had rolled up
"Louis... what's on your arm?"
"Oh ummmm... it's nothing. Don't worry about it darling"
Harry grabs Louis' arm
"Lou...?" Harry looks up at Louis, tears filling his eyes
"These- these are fresh" Harry says
"Yeah... it's just, idk I've been doing it for five years now"
"Five years?" Harry questions, more tears fill his eyes
"I tried stopping but it's just- it's just so difficult"
A silence falls over them, Harry quickly gets up and goes into the bathroom
"Are you mad at me?" Louis asks from the other room
"No Louis, I'm not mad. But I do have to tell you that I can't be with you if you aren't going to get sober" Harry replies, walking back over to Louis with a few bandaids in his hands
