Fix You (Larry Stylinson AU)

Chapter 6

He steps into the tub and then I realize, when you take a bath, you kind of have to be naked. I mean, I've seen him naked multiple times before, but this time it might be just a little different considering that I just confessed my love for him.

"It's fine." He must've noticed my thought process.

"You sure? I can leave or something.."

"No, don't go," he says quickly, "It's fine. I promise." He gives me a small, reassuring smile before tugging down his boxers, throwing them to the floor near the door.

Louis cheeks blush a deep red, goddamn beautiful as always.

There's cuts all down his thighs, the blood crusting and scabbing. I hate that our first somewhat intimate moment is under these circumstances. His body is still as beautiful as ever, even with the angry red gashes covering nearly half his arms and legs.

"You're beautiful." I whisper as he sits down in the tub, making the water ripple, slowly turning pink from the blood.

He looks up at me, meeting my eyes.

"I'm the least thing from beautiful.." He says, barely audible.

"Louis..you're the most beautiful person I've ever laid my eyes on. Don't ever think anything different. I love every single fucking thing about you, and I mean it." I pick up a wash rag and dip it into the water.

"You really mean that?" He says, slightly whimpering when I squeeze the water out of the towel, running it over his forearm.

"With all my heart." I run the water over his arm until its clean from the blood.

I do the same with his other arm, running the water over it until the blood is washed away. I then place a gentle kiss on both his wrists.

After dipping the towel back into the now pink water, I continue to wash the blood off of him, now working on his thighs. After Both are clean, I look up to him, silently asking for permission to kiss him there as well.

When he nods his head, I dip my head down and plant gentle kisses on his soft thighs.

"Kiss me" he whispers, "on my lips."

I move up to his mouth and kiss the corner of his lips before giving him a full kiss. His mouth opens immediately and his hands go to the back of my neck.

The music that he had been blasting is still playing, only I had turned it down to a background level when I found him. "Satellites" by Sleeping with Sirens is now playing through the small speakers.

My eyes stay closed for moment after Louis pulls away, ending the kiss. When I'm out of my daze, I stand up and grab a towel, wrapping it around him once he's out of the bathtub.

"Now, lets get out of this bathroom." I say, taking his hand again.

"Agreed."

I lead us into my room. "Oh, you need clothes. Stay here, ill grab some." I say before exiting the room. I find a box of his clothes and grab some boxers and a t shirt.

When I walk back into my room, the sight of Louis captivates me. He's sitting on the edge of my bed, wearing only the towel, with drops of water glistening on his skin.

"Is something wrong?" He says, realizing that I've been standing in the doorway, staring at him.

"No. Nothing at all." I shut the door behind me and walk over to him, handing him the Articles of clothing. "You're just so beautiful."

He smiles and stands up, turning away from me to hide his flushing cheeks. Man I love the way he looks when he blushes. I have to force myself to look away when he drops the towel from his hips. He's so pretty.

He pulls up his boxers and throws on his shirt before exiting the room without even looking at me.

What is he doing?

He walks back in moments later wearing a jacket.

Oh. He wants to cover his arms.

He slowly walks over to the bed and sits on the edge. I do the same, but instead of sitting on the edge, I climb under the covers and lay down on my side.

"Lay down. You need rest." I pat the other side of the bed. "Get comfortable."

He nods his head and pulls the covers back, laying down on his side also, facing me.

Theres a small silence, the both of us just staring and admiring each other.

"So..was..was what I did in there okay?" I slowly ask, my nervousness showing through my tone.

Louis stays quiet for a moment, a small smile playing on his lips. "Yes. It was more than okay...it was..it was perfect." He blushes, covering his face with his little sweater paw. "I mean if you were okay with it too.." He continues, unsure.

"Of course I was." I smile. "I've been dreaming of that moment for years. I can't believe I actually did it.." I trail off. "Um..so where do we go from here?" I pick at my fingernails.

"Well, what do you want?"

"I'm asking you."

"Um..well.." He starts picking at his nails as well, "I think we sh-should take it slow? I don't really know, I haven't really been in a lot of relationships or anything..I mean, if that's even what you want.." He rambles off, clearly nervous.

"Of course that's what I want, if you want it too, that is." I smile, scooting closer to him, taking his hand.

He looks down at our hands and then back up to my eyes and he seems to have forgotten what he was going to say. "I-I um.."

"Mhm?" I mumble, intertwining our fingers. A perfect fucking fit. God i need him. "What do you want, beautiful?"

His face flushes once again and whispers, "you.."

I scoot closer to him, our chests touching, "what's that?" I whisper into his ear before lightly sucking on it. "What do you want?"

He shivers under my touch. "I..I want you, Harry."

"That's what I thought." I nearly growl, grabbing hold of his waist and pulling him closer to me.
