"Are you nervous?" Harry questioned, looking down at Louis as he sat against the front of his office desk
"Nah" Louis replied, shrugging at Harry from his position in the large chair; they were facing each other, only a meter apart "I already know what's going to happen"
"And what's that?" Harry asked, tilting his head sightly at Louis
"M'going to be in here forever" Louis stated, no emotion evident in his voice
The tone brought Harry back to a time where he couldn't understand Louis at all; a time where Louis didn't trust him at all
"Don't say stuff like that" Harry replied softly "M'not going to let that happen to you"
"Don't" Louis said firmly "Please don't make promises that you can't keep"
"I will keep it" Harry stated "I promise you that you're going to get out of here"
"Harry, please" Louis replied "Please don't"
"Louis, baby, look at me" Harry commanded "I will not let that happen, alright?" He questioned and Louis nodded uneasily "I simply won't let that happen"

In court, 12/1/19
"Ready?" Harry quizzed, looking down at Louis who was dressed in a suit that Zayn had leant him
The smaller boy nodded softly, swallowing "Help me?" He asked softly, gesturing to his tie. Harry smiled at him, hands going to the fabric and sorting it out "I can- I can do it, it's just-" Louis cut himself off, looking down at his hand "I'm shaking" he whispered, eyeing his hands
"It's aright" Harry said softly "I've got you"
Louis nodded again, still nervous "I didn't think that I'd care this much" he admitted "Now that I'm here, I just want to get it all over with" he said
Harry smiled at him "All you've got to do is tell the truth" he said softly "Alright?" He quizzed
"Alright" Louis repeated softly "I will" he said "A-and if I can't, you have to keep your promise" he added "You can't tell them about anything if I don't say it"
Harry nodded slowly "I promise" he said
They both broke their promises
The hearing was going smoothly until Louis looked up towards the jury, every single member staring at him with judging eyes
He couldn't do it
When he was questioned by the opposing lawyer, he couldn't say what had happened to him
Not in front of all of these people
And so the judge frown in confusion but agreed to end the trial with the admission of a guilty plea
"You're sure there's nothing else?" The judge pondered
Louis gulped and shook his head, his Adams apple bobbing before he replied "No, nothing"
"Well, I therefore sentence Louis Tomlinson to capital punishment" The judge spoke
The room fell silent, the guards at either side of Louis tightened their grip on him as if he would try to run. But Harry knew that he wouldn't
The two boys locked eyes and green eyes met blue once again, maybe for the last time. And through his eyes Harry could see fear and also regret
"Wait" Harry called out before he could comprehend his actions "I have something to add"
