So you guys think that you can spot a murderer?

You think you could point out a psychopath?

Well, here's a chapter to make you think a little bit. Because you were all so quick to side with Louis, and you were all so quick to trust a murderer

Louis was manipulative

He was born to manipulate

He did it without even realising and he used words that he knew would effect people without even trying to

Harry, however, didn't know this. Maybe Harry didn't really know Louis at all; can you really get to know someone within the space of a few months?

"Louis" Harry spoke up finally, making the smaller boy raise his head

"Yes?" Louis replied, licking his lips softly and making sure that Harry saw him

Harry squirmed slightly, fidgeting with his hands "I need you to sign something" he said

"Sign something?" Louis questioned, making sure to widen his eyes innocently

"About the trial" Harry clarified "Liam has gotten you a great representative for your court date and I need you to give a signature to hand over all right to him"

"But I do-"

"Wait baby, you haven't heard the best part" Harry cut him off with a broad smile

"What's the best part?" Louis questioned, looking up at Harry with wide eyes

"I'm your representative" Harry stated, a cheesy grin on his face

Louis' eyes lit up at this involuntarily "You are?" he nearly squealed and Harry nodded "How?" he questioned excitedly

"Well it's rare that someone other than yourself can represent you in court but I'm qualified in criminal offenses and I've been working with you for a long period of time so I sent off a form to request rights to represent you, and I got approved" he said proudly

"Really?" Louis asked once again, just to make sure

"Really" Harry confirmed

"Th-this is the best thing that could have happened" Louis admitted "I'm not so scared anymore" he added quietly

"Don't be scared" Harry replied "I won't let you down"

"I didn't want to hand everything over to a stranger" Louis told him "But I trust you" the boy promised and Harry couldn't do anything but smile at this

"Mr Ordale" Harry greeted with a smile, shaking the mans hand before leading him to his own office

"Mr Styles" the man replied gracefully, striding into Harry's office and looking around the room briefly

"Please, sit down" Harry said politely, gesturing to the chair opposite his desk

"Thank you" Mr Ordale replied, taking a seat opposite Harry

"So you came about Mr Tomlinson's court date?" Harry questioned and the man nodded

"You recently got the approval to be his representative in court, I've heard" he started

"Yes" Harry replied "It was a struggle, but it's finally been approved" Harry explained "Why do you ask?"

"As a psychiatrist on the prosecution team, I'd like to give you a head up on what I'll be talking about in the case" he explained

"Don't we need a witnessing judge for this?" Harry questioned, eyebrows furrowing in curiosity
