Ch.3

"Harry," Louis sobbed as he ran out the store and into the huge middle of the mall, he messed up.  He screwed up really bad, now Harry'll never come home with them. "Liam, Niall!" Louis shouts and that makes them look at him, their faces happy but then they look concerned as the tears slowly fall down Louis' face. 

"Have you guys seen Harry?" Louis asked in-between sobs, thinking he lost him. Liam pointed over to the front entrance, where Harry was sitting on a bench strumming a guitar.  "We bought him it, he wanted it and he was sad." Liam said and Louis thanked him, before running over to the front door and opening it, about to walk over to him but he realized there was some type of journal in his lap and he heard an angelic voice singing. 

"Down to Earth, keep on falling when I know it hurts
Going faster than a million miles an hour
Trying to catch my breath some way, somehow.

 Down to Earth
It's like I'm frozen, but the world still turns
Stuck in motion, and the wheels keep spinning 'round
Moving in reverse with no way out

 And now I'm one step closer to being two steps far from you
When everybody wants you
Everybody wants you  

 How many nights does it take to count the stars?
That's the time it would take to fix my heart
Oh, baby, I was there for you
All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah
How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
Lie awake only hoping they're OK
I never counted all of mine
If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity
Infinity, infinity, yeah
Infinity  

 Eyes can't shine
Unless there's something burning bright behind
Since you went away, there's nothing left in mine
I feel myself running out of time

 And now I'm one step closer to being two steps far from you
When everybody wants you
Everybody wants you  

 How many nights does it take to count the stars?
That's the time it would take to fix my heart
Oh, baby, I was there for you
All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah
How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
Lie awake only hoping they're OK
I never counted all of mine
If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity
Infinity, infinity, yeah
Infinity, infinity, infinity  

  How many nights does it take to count the stars?
That's the time it would take to fix my heart
Oh, baby, I was there for you
All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah
How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
Lie awake only hoping they're OK
I never counted all of mine
If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity
Infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity, yeah
Infinity"

Harry finished the last 'Infinity' with a beautiful high note that left butterflies in Louis' stomach, his heart broke as he saw tears falling down Harry's face rapidly. He wrote down some stuff in his journal before beginning to strum his guitar again, this was when he thought he should speak. "That's a very beautiful song," he said and paused as Harry stopped strumming but didn't look at Louis, "Did you write it?" he hoped he would get some type of response.

After a few minutes of awkward silence, Harry nodded his head slowly. "You have a very beautiful voice," Harry sighs at that and shrugs as his ears weren't noticeable. Harry wipes at his eyes and Louis walks over.  Harry soon looks up and he looks worried for a second before he gave Louis a slight glare. Louis let out a sob, breaking down all over again.

"T-That song was about me, wasn't it?" Harry slowly started crying again and looked away, Louis sobbed into his arms and collapsed onto his knees. "Harry, I know I fucked up. I know, I shouldn't have snapped. I'm so sorry, fuck i'm so sorry." Louis cried. 

Harry started strumming his guitar again as a loud sob escaped Harry. "Loo," he sobbed, still hurt. "Hurt 'arry." he muttered. Louis looked at him confused and Harry sighed, "Loo hurt 'arry." he said altogether and that made Louis' heart break, that was the longest thing he's ever said since he got him and that was telling him how hurt he was.

"'Arry protect Loo." he continued, "Loo hurt 'arry in 'turn."  he finished as he sobbed. Louis gasped, "You were protecting me?" Harry nods.

"Ed bad man, hurt 'arry when kitty." he again spoke up, "Ed smirky when Loo get mad at 'arry." Harry explains. That made Louis cry harder, he had no idea. Ed was a guy he knew since he was five, he didn't know he hurt Harry when he was younger. He didn't even care that he was talking to him a lot, all he cared about was the fact that Harry admitted to being hurt.

Loo hurt 'arry.

Loo hurt 'arry.

Lou hurt 'arry.

Harry's voice rang in his head, Harry just stared at Louis. "Oh god, Harry! I had no idea, I am so fucking sorry!" he was angry too, but his heart was broken. All he could think about was Harry, right now. Harry just shook his head and started to strum on his guitar.

"'Arry had 'nough." Harry, again, spoke up which surprised Louis. Louis' jaw droppd, Harry had enough of Louis already? "'Arry had 'nough hurt. 'Arry heart take no more." Louis sobbed, apologizing continuously. Harry continued to strum his guitar, humming a tune Louis never heard before. 

"Shut the door, turn the light off, I wanna be with you. . . I wanna feel your love,  I wanna lay beside you, I cannot hide this. Even though I try," Harry began to sang but his eyes went wide and his jaw dropped as he heard the famous three words come out of Louis' mouth.

"I love you."
