As Luke walked through the apartment he still remembered well, Niall came out of his room, stopping in his tracks when he saw Luke.

"Luke? What are you doing here?" He questioned, gently grabbing one of Luke's shoulders, a look of concern on his features.

"I'm going to be staying here for a bit," Luke mumbled, looking down at the floor; he wasn't able to look him in the face.

"Luke, you know how bad Li-"

"Niall! Leave him alone!" Liam's voice rang through the apartment, sending a shiver down Luke's spine.

Niall looked at the other boy with a sense of utter panic and horror washed over it. "Listen, you need to leave. Now. I don't wanna see you put yourself through this again. It was bad enough the first ti-"

"WHAT DID I SAY?" Liam shouted, stomping over to them. Neither thought his voice could have gotta any louder than the first time he yelled, but apparently it obviously could.

"Liam," Niall said in a warning tone, looking at him sternly. "You can't force Luke to stay here with you-"

This time it was Luke's turn to cut him off. "He's not forcing me."

"But I thought-"

"I called him; asked for help," he confessed, fiddling with his fingers nervously.

"Why? You were so abused last time-"

"Niall, leave him," Liam demanded, gripping Luke's arm, beginning to pull him to his room.

-

"Just as good as I remember," Liam whispered in his ear as he drifted off to sleep, snores escaping his mouth in heaves.

Luke slowly got out of bed, not wanting to wake the guy, for he had seen him when he had been, and it wasn't pretty. He headed to the bathroom, the light blinding him for a second when he turned it on.

With his fingers tangled in his hair, he looked himself over in the mirror, rethinking his current situation.

He hated the feeling that he once again had. He hated the feeling of being violated.

Not only was his mind filled with terror, but also self-hatred and pity. Tears sprang in his eyes as he began to feel his bum already becoming sore.

"Goddammit," he muttered to himself as he sank to the floor, curling into a ball in the corner.

The weighing fear on his shoulders was enough to break him- per usual; just like before. Before, when he would stay over, this is exactly how it end. Him just quietly breaking in private. Sometimes he would be lucky enough to have Niall wake up by chance, and have him sooth him, but most of the time that wasn't the case. Just like this time.
