The next morning, I woke up in a mix of limbs and blankets. I shut my eyes tightly as the sun beamed through the window. I opened one eye and smiled, seeing Harry still sound asleep next to me. I finally opened my eyes and turned to look at him. He stirred in his sleep and pulled me closer to him and I smiled. There was a soft knock on the door just then and I quickly closed my eyes, burying my face into his chest.
          "Boys? You awake?" I heard Anne whisper and it was slightly embarrassing because it was obvious what we did last night.
          "Harry?" She whispered loudly and Harry groaned. I kept my eyes shut as I clung to him tightly.
          "What?" Harry mumbled out.
          "You boys have school today..." She said softly and I quickly sat up, rubbing my eyes.
          "Shit I forgot!" I said and Anne smiled.
          "I will leave you boys to get ready." She said softly before leaving. I flopped back down on the bed and groaned.
          "I didn't have anything prepared for today..." I said and I heard him chuckle before he wrapped his arm around me and placed a gentle kiss to my collar bone.
          "Just relax." He whispered and I looked towards him, feeling my heart flutter seeing those gorgeous bright green eyes. They weren't rimmed with red and they were just extra bright today.
          "I am going to be in so much trouble today..." I said and he smiled.
          "Makes the pair of us." He said before sitting up and stretching. I couldn't help but stare at the muscles in his back as he stretched. I watched as he got up from the bed, the sheets being removed from his naked body.
          "Enjoying the view?" He asked and I blushed looking down.
          "Come on, lets go shower and you can use my clothes." He said walking round to my side and pulling me up off the bed. He dragged me to his bathroom and ran the shower, pulling me with him. Once we were showered, Harry gave me a shirt and clean pair of boxers and I wore the same jeans as yesterday before the pair off us headed downstairs. We walked into the kitchen to see Anne and Robin sitting at the island and I noticed a brown envelope in the middle. I knew what was in it though...
          "Morning boys!" Robin said and I smiled, watching him smirk at the pair of us.
          "Right, take a seat boys." He said gesturing to the seat in front of him. We both sat down and Harry took my hand in his and squeezed slightly.
          "This is all money you need. You will take it and give it to this boy straight away. Harry, we have booked for you to go to the rehab center after school. You will be doing home schooling there until you are finished. Hopefully you will be better before college next year. That's if you pass of course." Robin explained and i frowned. How long is Harry really going to be in that place.
          "where is the rehab centre?" Harry asked, like reading my mind.
          "here in Doncaster. You are allowed visitors twice a week, and if you behave you spend the whole Saturday with someone." Anne said. They were treating him like a prisoner. What the hell.
          "so that's it then... That's how it's going to be? I get to see someone twice a week? And if I behave I get to spend one day with them? For what? The whole year?" Harry asked and I could tell this was hard for him too.
          "It all depends Harry. Depends how quickly you can recover." Robin said sternly and he looked down to the table. I could see this was effecting him terribly.
           "We better go." He said standing up and taking the envelope before we both headed out to my car. He was silent, not saying a word and it sort of frustrated me.
           "Please say something..." I whispered.
           "I don't know what to say..." He said.
           "it's going to be okay." I said but he shook his head.
           "It won't be. Louis that's the end. That place will be the end of us. The end of me..." He trailed off and I sighed.
          "it won't be the end... The only end that place will bring, is the end of your drug life. It will be a whole new beginning for you..." I said softly and he sighed.
          "I hope you're right." He said and I took his hand and squeezed it supportively.
          "I love you okay. I will stick by you no matter what. That place won't tear us apart, no matter how hard it gets." I said just as I pulled up in front of Niall's house.
          "Promise?" He asked and I smiled, leaning over and placing my lips to his.
          "Always." I said just as the car door opened.
          "Zayn says we can meet him at school." Niall said and I nodded as we pulled out his driveway and headed to school.
          "Mum was seriously miffed at the fact I wasn't at school yesterday." Niall muttered and I laughed.
          "That makes three of us." I said. We soon pulled up at the school and I sighed. As we got out the car, I walked over and took Harry's hand in mine as the 3 of us made our way into the school. Wrong idea because as soon as we stepped through the door, the principle stopped us from going any further.
          "Think you could get away with skipping school yesterday lads?" He asked and I could see the anger in his face. We all kept quiet because we knew nothing we say would get us off the hook.
          "You two, get to class. Tomlinson, with me!" He said and I gulped nodding. Harry squeezed my hand gently and I smiled slightly, following the principle down the hallway to his office. Once we entered, I shut the door and took a seat in front of his desk as I studied his face carefully.
          "Care to explain why you were bunking off yesterday?" He asked calmly.
          "Sir... Its rather complicated." I said and he sighed.
          "Louis, you are supposed to be the role model of this school! People look up to you for help and inspiration! Not bunking off because things were complicated! That is the very reason you were nominated to be student body president and the soccer captain!!" He snapped and I looked down.
           "Sir it won't happen again." I said but he shook his head.
          "I know it won't! Because I am taking your positions away from you! You will be like every other student in this building!" He said and I frowned.
          "But sir..." I began but he held his hand up.
          "No Louis. I have had enough! Signing yourself out, bunking off school, a B on your last math quiz?" He asked and I frowned.
          "So you are taking my titles away because I got a B on my maths quiz? and bunking off one day? I have a good but complicated reason for that sir! And signing myself out, I had family problems. Phone my mother if you don't believe me!" I snapped trying to defend myself.
          "Then give me the reason Louis!" He shouted and I glared at him.
          "Harry is a drug addict!! Okay?! He had a bad spell yesterday and Zayn and Niall helped me!!" I shouted but regretted it straight after.
          "A drug addict?" The principle asked slowly.
          "Don't worry about him, he is fine. He is going to get help, thats why he is being pulled out at the end of the day!" I said standing up.
          "Louis sit down." He said but I shook my head.
          "I'm sorry sir. I am sorry for putting my best friend and lover before everything else. I am sorry for everything I have done. Just keep the damn captain and student body president. Its not like I needed that extra stress in my life!" I snapped walking out the door.
          "Louis!" The principle called and I stopped just outside the door.
          "I'm sorry." He said but I just shook my head and walked out. I walked back down the hallway and looked around, seeing all the students crowding the halls and looking at me. I caught sight of my two friends and boyfriend standing by my locker. Harry looked over at me and frowned slightly. I turned and walked out to the soccer field. I went into the locker room and changed into my ugly gym shorts and a plain white t-shirt. I got the old trainers out and put them on before shoving everything else into my locker. I had no reason to go to class today and I couldn't get in trouble for it. I walked out and plugged my headphones in before running round the track. It was the only way to keep my emotions in check.
          "Louis!!!!" I heard suddenly and stopped running, catching my breath, and looking around. My eyes landed on coach and I groaned before running towards him.
          "Yes coach?" I asked and he looked at me with a slight frown.
          "Shouldn't you be in class?" He asked and I sighed.
          "Whats the point?" I asked sitting down on the grass and wrapping my arms around my legs. The coach sat next to me and sighed.
          "Its not as bad as you think." He said but I sighed.
          "Coach I have lost everything I have worked for! All in one day! Basically for getting a B on a maths quiz and not coming to school yesterday due to certain reasons. How is that not bad?!" I asked and he sighed.
          "Louis, there is a lot more to life then some silly title of Student body president and soccer captain. So what if you got a B on a quiz or bunked off? Now that you don't have the titles, you can do whatever you want. Louis I am just the coach, I don't care what you get up too, just don't miss practice." He said and I smiled.
          "I never thought of it that way..." I said softly and he chuckled.
          "I will write a note, excusing you from each class. Just do what you want today but class tomorrow." He said and I smiled, nodding.
          "Thank you coach." I said and he smiled before getting up and walking away. I groaned and lay back on the grass, staring up at the grey sky. Everything was running through my head. How could I let this happen? And why do I feel like a huge weight has been lifted?
          "Lou?" I heard and sat up on my elbows, looking in the direction on the voice. Harry stood there with his bag slung over his shoulder and a small frown. I smiled and gestured for him to come join me. He sat down, dropping his bag next to me as I lay back down.
          "What happened?" He asked and I sighed.
          "I got my positions taken away. Student pres and Captain." I said  and saw him frown.
          "Why?" He asked and I sighed.
          "Something about not being a good role model." I said as he lay down next to me, resting his head on my chest.
          "You are a good enough role model for me." He whispered and I smiled.
           "You should be in class." I said and he chuckled.
           "Lou when do I pay attention in class anyways? Beside, its my last day here." He said and I sighed.
           "I wish it wasn't..." I said wrapping my arm around him. I was going to miss him so much.
           "It will be fine Lou, remember what you told me this morning? Don't let me go back to negative thoughts again." He said sitting up slightly so he was looking down at me.
          "Promise to stick together?" I asked and he smiled, placing his lips to mine gently.
          "Promise." He said and I smiled...
          "Oi Styles! You got the money yet?!" I froze hearing that voice.
