trigger warning: mentions of abuse ((?))

his fists collided with the door over and over again. his cries were loud but not too loud for neighbours to hear. louis knew it was rude to knock this loud on someone's door but he did it anyway.

when anne opened the door she saw louis' body was shaking as the sobs came out his mouth. she automatically became extremely concerned. to see her son's boyfriend, who she cared a lot about, extremely upset like this broke her heart. she pulled him into a tight hug and louis instantly hugged back.

"what's wrong lou?" anne questioned.

"can i talk to harry first?" louis asked to which she nodded and looked at him with understanding. knowing her son though, she knew he'd be infuriated at whoever made louis cry like this.

"he's not here right now but i'll call him. i'm sure he'll come as quick as he can. here come inside i'll fix you a cup of tea." anne said leading louis into the living room. louis knows he must look like a mess at the moment but he didn't care that much. as he sits in the living room tears still pour out of his eyes. after about five minutes anne came back with the tea she said she would bring. "here you go love. i called harry and he said he would be here very soon. i didn't tell him you were crying because i knew he'd end up getting a speeding ticket so all i told him was that you were here."

"thank you." louis whispered taking the tea into his hands. anne sat down and patiently waited for louis to finish drinking his tea. when he was done. she took the cup and walked to the kitchen to wash it. as she was washing it harry walked into the house. "mum i'm home!"

when he walked into the living room and saw louis the smile he had on his lips vanished. he rushed to louis and crouched down in front of him, "baby, what's wrong?"

"harry there's something i haven't told you." louis looked down and sighed just as anne walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs.

"what is it? you know you can tell me anything."

"sit on the couch i have a lot to tell you." harry did as he was told and looked at louis expectantly. "i told you once my mother died from a car accident but i lied. my mother...killed herself." louis bit his lip not wanting to cry anymore. "she was tired of the way her life turned out. she loved me and my siblings yes but my father was what she was tired of. that man hit her until she could barely move. he made her feel weak, he broke her harry." biting his lip did nothing because after that last sentence he had fat tears rolling down his cheeks.

harry sat there sadly looking at louis. it broke his heart to see louis crying. harry was close to tears too but he didn't want to cry, crying was something he did in his room, alone. "i'm so so-"

"no, i'm not done." louis interrupted. he sighed again and said, "after she killed herself my uh father found a new punching bag...me." harry stiffened at that and his sadness soon turned into anger.

"he hit you?!" harry exclaimed.

"sometimes the beatings would be so bad that i couldn't move so i'd just lay on the ground in my own blood wishing i had a father who didn't hit me. i wanted to tell you but i was too embarrassed. yet today i just couldn't take it anymore."

"no you don't have anything to be embarrassed about. i'm so glad you told me. i don't want you to ever have to endure another beating like that. c'mere give me a hug." harry said. louis obeyed and hugged harry tightly. "we're going to your house and we're picking up your sisters and bringing them back here where we will then talk about this to my mum, okay? i would give you an option but i can't let you & your siblings live with that man anymore."

"thank you harry, you're the best." louis said still hugging harry. "but before we do that can you just keep hugging me like this for awhile?"

harry continued hugging him and said, "of course i can. i won't let go until you want me to. i'm sorry you had to go through that, you don't deserve that."

"no one deserves to feel pain. it's just life." louis says sadly.

"mhm that's about right." harry agreed. "i really wish i could knock some sense into your father though."

louis smacked harry's chest and said, "no fighting harry!"

"won't make any promises."

when they arrive to louis' house they get out of the car and louis is a bit nervous. his father is home and he's afraid something might happen. louis unlocks the door and both him and harry go inside.

"louis, that you?" a voice hollers which harry recognizes as louis' dad. harry clenches his fists and takes a deep breath. in a matter of seconds he appears before them. harry only feels pure hatred and anger and he has to keep taking deep breaths so he doesn't attack the man.

"louis go get your sisters & brother."

"but harry-"

"go get your sisters & brother, nothing bad is going to happen." louis nodded quickly and went to get them.

"listen scumbag-"

"excuse me?"

"don't interrupt me. as i was saying i used to have so much respect for you but when i learned about what you did to louis and his mum, that respect was gone. you're an awful human being and if you so much as even get near louis or his siblings i'll end you. i swear i'll make you wish you were never born." louis' father looked speechless but harry didn't want him to speak. he didn't want to hear that guys pathetic voice. so he quickly got them all in the car and drove off.
