*Harrys POV*

The tingling sensation on my face began to tickle as my eyes slowly fluttered open from waking up.

"Good morning beautiful", Louis spoke while continuing to kiss my face all over. His kisses were sweet and soft against my skin and I loved them so much, but not as much as I love him.

"Good morning gorgeous". I placed a soft kiss to his lips before bringing him in close and snuggling him against my bare chest.

I don't think that Louis will ever understand what he does for me by sleeping at mine. Not only do I feel safer when he's in my arm, but he also stops the nightmares.

Every night for the past 3 years, I've constantly had nightmares. They're all the same but each one has a slight difference every time. Sometimes it's so small that I can't even figure out what it is. The first night that Louis stayed, only a few days ago, was the first night in those 3 years that I didn't have a single nightmare. The first night where I slept in peace and didn't wake up until my alarm went off. That was the best night of my entire life.

I don't think I can ever bring myself to tell him about the nightmares, about the experiences, about...him. I never want to think of him again, never want him to cross my mind but he does, he does every night and I can't control it. Not even my mum knows about the nightmares, I never wanted to tell her that he still haunts me. I know it would just hurt her.

Keeping something this big can be extremely hard and stressful but I've found my ways to feel better, or worse but better, if that even makes sense. I have so many secrets that I don't want Louis to find out, yet I want to pour my heart out to him. Why is life so complicated?

"Hazza, you coming for breakfast?" Louis was now up and had some trackies and a top on.

"Yeah I'm coming". I dragged myself out of bed, and went downstairs, greeted with the smell of my mum's cooking.

She was making a full English breakfast, definitely my favourite thing to have in a morning. The radio was on and 'Addicted To You - Avicii' was playing.

Lost in your eyes

Drowning in blue

Out of control

What can I do?

I'm addicted to you

It reminded me of Louis so much. His blue eyes, the fact that he is all I want and all I need.

Before I knew it, we had eaten and were now dressed. I decided that I would take Lou to a restaurant for dinner, not an expensive one but not a cheap one either. When we got there, a woman came and took us to a table in the corner of the restaurant, hidden away from everyone else. Just how I wanted.

She shot a smile at Louis that looked more like a flirty smile to me, maybe it's just my jealousy?

"What can I get you gorgeous?" She spoke as she winked at Louis. My boyfriend!

Louis glanced at me, knowing that I would be jealous, before looking at the menu once again. "Just some pancakes and a hot chocolate please".

He shot her a small smile which caused jealousy to flow straight through me, but he knows that he's mine and only mine. If he doesn't, I will have to show him!

"And you?" She moved her body to face me.

I stared straight into her eyes as I spoke, "I'll have the same" I said winking to Louis. His cheeks flushed with red and I loved knowing that I caused that.

The women left after she wrote 'x2' next to Louis' order, talk about lazy. The sun was bright outside and for once it was a warm day, actually it was an extremely hot day. Yet I still wore a jumper, I had to cover my arms or else Louis would ask questions and I didn't need that right now.

Our orders arrived in no time and me and Louis ate all the pancakes in a few minutes, drinking the hot chocolate afterwards.

"It's boiling in here" Louis said, rolling up his sleeves and fanning himself. "How are you wearing a jumper?" He questioned.

"I-I don't know. Guess I-I'm not that c-cold?" My stuttering indicated that my nerves were building, causing Louis to stare at me confused.

"Harry? Take it off seriously, you're gonna be roasted to death" he spoke, his eyes still showing signs of confusion.

"Honestly Louis I'm fine" I reassured.

"Harry Styles, you take that jumper off right now! Or at least roll up the sleeves...if you don't, I will come over there and do it for you!" He spoke louder but not in an angry tone.

I didn't know what to do, but I knew that Louis would actually do it for me if I refused. Reluctantly, I rolled up my sleeves and stared at my arms before looking up at Louis.

His eyes were glossy and tears began to fall down his cheeks. His mouth was open and he was purely horrified by the sight in front of him.
