Louis Tomlinson is a well respected Doctor whose life revolves around his work and his 8 year old daughter... until he meets Harry Styles, who becomes his daughter's art teacher. Harry becomes a part of their lives, loving Louis' little girl Emma li...
Harry lays awake, the clock close to 3 am. He's kept himself busy by posting photos of their vacation on Facebook and Instagram for the last few hours, tagging Louis in all of them. He's uploaded all of his camera photos so far as well as the ones on his and Louis' phones. He even posts a photo of Louis and himself on the beach, the caption reading: "Paradise with the spouse xx."
He grins a little, going through all of their photos. He sees comments from Zayn and Liam as well as Niall and he chuckles a little.
He glances at Louis every few seconds, watching him sleep, just waiting for him to wake at any second.
That's why Harry's been up for so long; he isn't sleeping through another episode of Louis' nightmares.
He reaches for the tea on the nightstand next to him and turns back to his laptop, scrolling through his newsfeed; he sees photos of Gemma and then some of her cat and he's grinning before commenting on them.
"Love the new hair, sis. Miss you."
He sighs and rubs his face, trying to keep himself awake; he's been fighting sleep for hours.

He gets up slowly, grabbing Louis' cigarettes and walking to the balcony. He leans against the railing, keeping his eyes on Louis in the bed.
He's smoked half of it before he sees Louis moving a little, making noises. And Harry's waiting for him to wake up now... it's only a matter of time.
He puts out the cigarette before he's climbing in bed with Louis, lying on his side and watching him closely.
And when Louis' head turns over on the pillow facing Harry, Harry can see tears on his face.
Harry bites his lip before he's wrapping his arms around Louis... but to his surprise, Louis starts aggressively pushing Harry away.
"Lou," Harry starts shouting, "it's me..."
"Stop! I have to see him!" Louis is still struggling against Harry.
"Louis, I'm right here!" Harry nearly screams, trying to restrain Louis.
"No, get off of me!" Louis shouts before his fist makes contact with Harry's mouth.
Harry falls back a little before he's staring at Louis, seeing his eyes opening slowly and looking in horror at Harry.
"It's me," Harry whispers out, his face still in shock.
Louis stares at him, seeing the blood on Harry's lip and he's sitting up quickly, "Harry..."
Louis can't even get the words out; he's breaking down, placing his hands over his face and crying.
"Lou," Harry starts quietly, "it's ok..."
"I... I was having a dream," Louis stutters out before he's sobbing again, "shit, Harry... I'm so sorry..."
"I'm fine," Harry replies, his eyes not leaving Louis.
