Beaten and Bullied (Harry Styles fanfic) RESTORED!

Chapter 28

Chapter 28-

Time just froze as everyone stared at us in shock, seconds passed then Louis broke the silent by laughing. Either he'd misheard us or clearly had too much to drink. He continued chortling while everyone looked at him flabbergasted.

Finally Louis pulls himself together and speaks "I wish I could have took a photo of all your face, come 'on guys they're obviously joking. If it was true then they would have told us by now" he says shaking his head.

"Louis, we're being completely serious" Harry says slowly.

Eleanor takes in a sharp intake of breath while looking at us while everyone stares at us dumbfounded.

Louis looks like he's going to laugh again but then looks into Harry's eyes and sees the seriousness and stops.

"No.. you would have told me," Liam says shakes his head in disbelief.

"Yeah, you would have told us" Louis says shakily.

"I only found out myself a few days ago" Harry admits.

Louis turns to me "How is this even possible, I thought Harry bullied you throughout high school. I though you hated each other before?"

Harry winced slightly at his choice of words but doesn't say anything.

"Yes but we were drunk and you' know..." I say not wanting to go into details.

Louis looks at me "So you just kept this from us" he says bitterly.

"Yes" I admit "But at the time I was scared of what would happen if I told you guys".

"So you lied to straight to our faces, we must mean so much to you then" Louis says sarcastically while glaring at me.

Harry defensively pulls me closer to him "Back off Lou, Cheri's had it hard too, having to bring up Lily on her own".

"But that's her own fault" Louis says fiercely "I can't believe you're taking her side Harry, she lied to you".

Harry shakes his head "But for a good reason".

"So you're just going to forgive her?" Louis says incredulously. Harry nods.

"Your both nothing but a pair of back stabbing liars" he says before getting up angrily and stalking off to his room while slamming the door.

"Leave him to calm down", Eleanor says quietly before anyone can get up.

"But what's going to happen to all of us?" Liam asks while pointing to the rest of the boys.

"What do you mean?" Harry says, his eyebrows knitting together.

"Well you're a dad now, how are you supposed to look after Lily and go on tour" Liam says slowly, raising his eyebrows.

"I can fit in around the tour, that's not a problem," Harry says coolly. I lean my head against his shoulder, happy that he's not totally going to abandon me and Lily.

"How?" Zayn says.

"Well if Lou can do it will Lux then I'm sure we can manage with Lily" Harry says calmly like he's thought this through.

"Well anyway I don't think anyone can top Cheri on this round" Niall says while talking a big gulp of his drink. Everyone nods in agreement, I think their still trying to get their head round Harry being Lily's father.

Eleanor gives a small laugh "Yeah my secrets look stupid compared to your ones now".

Zayn stands up slowly "Well I think I'm going to call it a day, this is too much for one night" he says giving us a small wave. Niall follows him into the guest bedroom leaving me, Harry, Liam and Eleanor.

"Harry if they're talking the guest bedroom then where am I going to sleep?" I whisper, wondering if I'll have to sleep on the floor.

"You can share my bed" Harry says giving me a warm smile.

Eleanor shakes her head "I still can't believe your parents" she says giving us a small smile as well before standing up.

"I'm going to talk to Louis, he obviously didn't mean what he sad, he was just angry", we nod in agreement as we watch Eleanor's retreating figure go into Louis room.

"Well I guess I'm taking the sofa bed then" Liam says smirking.

We get off the sofa so he can pull it out.

"Hey I'm just going to get I drink but I'll meet you in your bedroom okay?" I say softly to Harry who nods.

I leave Harry and walk in to the kitchen. I decided to have a snack as well since I am in the kitchen after all. I quickly make myself banana, peanut butter and crisp sandwich- it sounds weird but surprisingly tasted amazing.

Just as I was going to take another delicious bite my phone started to ring.

I looked at my phone in confusion, who could be calling me at this time of night?

I cautiously answered the phone since it was an unknown number.

"Hello?" I say into the phone.

"Hi Cheri, it's Mike?"

"Mike?" I say puzzled, do I know a Mike?

"Mike, the plumber" he says slightly irritated.

"Ohh" I say feeling slightly stupid, how could I forget about my house being flooded.

"Anyway, the house has been drained and the burst pipes has now been replaced. You'll be able to move back in around tomorrow afternoon," Mike says thinly

"Oh okay that's great," I say trying to sound at least a bit happy, when in actual fact I'm not. I had enjoyed being here and I didn't want to go, I actually liked having Harry in the house. Though I'd never admit it to him. In some ways I wished the pipes had taken longer to fix.

"The bills for the work will be sent over, I don't except it'll cost too much", Mike

says before he cuts off without even saying bye. Rude.

"Bye to you too" I say sarcastically before slipping my phone into the font of my pocket. I finish eating my sandwich quickly before making my way into the hallway. The guest bedroom is quiet but I can hear murmuring coming from Louis's room, I wonder what they're saying. I walk past quietly and stop in front of Harrys bedroom door.

"Harry?" I whisper while knocking quietly, since I don't want to walk straight on to see him getting changed. That would be a tad awkward.

When I get no reply, I knock a bit louder. Why can't he hear me?

I put my ear against the door to see if I can hear him. Maybe he's not even in his room. I hear some snuffing and try to listen harder, what was he doing in there?

Finally I can make out small sobs coming from the other side of the door, was Harry crying? I knock one more time but I still get no reply.

"Harry" I say quietly before I open the door to see Harry curled up in a ball on the bed. Tears where rolling down his face and little whimpers where coming out his mouth.

"Harry?" I whisper.
