SURPRISE! Double update!
This is hopefully a really cute chapter! You have no idea how happy it made me writing it!
And the song above is really cute to me, and I feel like it fits. It's the song later in the chapter. I recommend listening to it when Harry starts singing it, but whenever you want really. Enjoy! :)
Chapter 15:
LOUIS
I walked into Harry's house with a bag in my hands. Zayn had told me where the extra key was hidden, and I decided to use it instead of making Harry get out of bed to answer the door. He needed to lie down and be bundled up in blankets if he wanted to get better soon.
I put the key on the dining room table before making my way to Harry's room, a bit excited to see him again. Okay, a lot excited. He was everything to me, and I loved him so much. It just sucked that we were on friendship terms only. Friends Louis. Friends.
I repeated the word in my head as I approached it bedroom door, but I stopped as I heard his voice sounding a bit troubled. I leaned against the door and listened.
"Mum, please. I do take the business seriously! I just didn't feel well at all today, and I-" He stopped speaking with a small sigh, my guess being that she cut him off. Was she seriously upset with him for missing work?
"I know! But I have never missed a day of anything in my life, and just this once I thought that maybe I should stay home and actually take care of my health before-" He got cut off again, and it was honestly irritating the hell out of me that she wouldn't let him speak and tell his side of things. Screw the business- Harry was way more important.
"Yes ma'am." He said sadly, and I frowned at that. It broke my heart whenever he sounded upset. "I know. I'm sorry. It won't hap- it won't happen again." He choked on his words, and I felt my hands ball into fists. She was making him cry! I wanted to snatch the phone away and yell at her, but Harry didn't even know I was here.
"I-I'm not. I feel better." He said, and I could tell he was lying by the tone in his voice. "I'm sorry. Yes. I- I l-love you, too." He managed to get out. "Bye." He breathed before I heard something hit the wall- most likely his phone.
I heard him begin to cry, sobs racking out from his chest, and I couldn't stand it anymore. I walked into Harry's room, seeing him crying into his knees. I silently walked over to him and set the bag down before wrapping my arms around him and pulling him close. He flinched a bit in surprise before he looked at me. I gave him a small smile and he broke down in my arms.
"Shhh. I know. It's okay, Harry." I whispered against his ear, rocking him back and forth in my arms. This boy was my whole entire world, and I just wanted him to smile. He deserved every little good thing in the world. He deserved to never be hurt. His heart was pure gold, yet it wasn't heavy at all.
"I-I'm sorry. I'm such a cry baby. I just... it hurts so much that she didn't even care. She didn't even listen. Everything's been so wrong today, and I just... I don't want to deal with it anymore." He cried out, and I squeezed him tighter.
"Hey, look at me, Harry." I said, holding his chin in my fingers. He looked up at me, sniffling a bit, but he still looked so beautiful. I wiped a few tears from his cheeks and smiled softly at him again.
"I'm sorry today was such a bad day, but it'll be okay. I want to make you happy now, okay? It'll be just me and you for the rest of the day, yeah? I'll take care of you. Forget about everyone else right now, alright love?" I said, not meaning for the term to slip out, but it was worth it when I saw Harry smile a bit, nodding his head.
