The Sweetest Boy | l.s ✔️

-23-

Harry returns to waiting room, seeing his friends crying in while holding each other. He looked at them with teary eyes and realized he ruined everything, all of their lives and they don't even know yet.

He wasn't thinking, all he wanted was revenge on people who wanted sex with him. But these four people in front of him.. they didn't deserve it. They heard Harry sniffle and they separate and turn to him.  He starts crying heavily, everyone but Louis rushed to his side.

"It's okay, we will make it through." Luke whispers in Harry's ear as they hugged. Harry knew they would make it but as of for him, he's unsure.

"So... Harry huh? All these years and I never knew the real name." Ashton chuckles as he embraces Harry.

"Yeah.." Harry sighs and pulls away. "I haven't been fully honest. My past is very... messed up. And I wanted to change everything about myself. I wanted to move on.. but I can't."  Harry sits down and hangs his head down.

"What do you mean? What haven't you been telling us?" Perrie asks as they all sit down next to him. Louis decided to sit down in his old seat.

"How about we go home and I'll tell you...everything." Harry suggests, while looking at Louis.

"Okay.. I'm exhausted anyway." Ashton replies.

They decided to go to Louis place, Louis offered. They didn't want to spend another second in that hospital. So the doctor said he would call when he got the results. Louis was basically silent on the way there, everyone exchanged a few words but he just kept to himself.

Louis crashed on the couch and everyone followed, Harry sat on the carpet because there was no space left on the couch. Perrie, Luke and Ashton were looking at Harry, as if they were waiting for him to begin.

"Okay.." Harry sighs and prepares to go down memory lane, hopefully the second to last time. "I'm going to start for the very beginning."

And that's what he did, he sat there for 45 minutes telling his deepest secrets and everything about peter and his mother. About how the school found out some weird things about him and turned against him. Everything.

And they just listened, no one said anything, no one could find the words. They thought they have heard everything but what harry was telling them sparked a new feeling of anger in them. This is a person they have known for three years, they have been through hell together and have made memories together. And to hear that he was hurt so bad by people who were supposed to protect him, infuriated them.

"What a sick fucking bastard." Ashton growls in anger, while shaking his head. Harry had ended the story about thirty seconds prior. And the other two were trying to process all this new information.

"I.. I am speechless." Perrie says shakily. "How could any.. human do something like that."

"I wanna kill 'im" Luke says and rubs his forehead in frustration. "I mean, how could have just left without smashing his face in?!"

"I was dumb, I should have caused him as much pain as he caused me." Harry replies and Louis decided to finally interject.

"Then why don't you tell them about your plan to find him and kill him?" Louis gave no fucks at this point.

"What?" Perrie asks in confusion and Harry sighs.

"Thank you, Louis." Harry says sarcastically. "Yes, I brought that idea up to Louis and.. Zayn. I have so much anger built up in me, so much unfinished business. Not just with him but my mother. I wanna do the absolute worst things to him, torture him for days on end, I want his death slow and dragged out. I want him begging for me to kill him because he's in so much pain. I want him to suffer."
