Oblivion- Larry AU

4.

Louis ran, he didn’t know why, but he felt like it was the right thing to do at the moment. He made it to the park and sat down at one of the benches. He set his elbows on his knees and put his arms over his head, and he kept crying. 

He thought it over inside his head, Harry loved him, really loved him. He was ecstatic, but he didn’t want to think him being the reason that Harry was attacked. If it wasn’t for Harry falling in love with him, then none of this would have happened. Harry would still be the same. But he’s not, he never will be.

Louis stopped crying, it wasn’t like he wanted to stop, but he was all cried out. Even though the tears had stopped flowing, he was hiccuping from the constant screams that came from his mouth as he cried. He wiped his eyes with the back of his hands and finally looked up to take in his surroundings. There wasn’t anyone else in the area, like always, and he loved that he was able to come here and be alone to collect his thoughts.

“Lou?” Louis looked up and saw Cassie.

“What are you doing here?” he whispered as he looked at his hands in his lap.

“It’s Harry-”

“What happened? Is he okay?” He frantically asked as he got up off the bench.

“He is fine, but why don’t you ask him yourself?”

“Wait, what?”

“Louis, he’s awake.” Louis looked to Cassie, he didn’t have anything to say, but he bolted off in the direction of the hospital. “Louis, don’t run I’ve got my car!” Cassie yelled at him and she beeped her car as she quickly got over to get into the driver’s seat. Louis was already eager for her to drive off, and she literally screamed at him to calm the fuck down. He whispered an apology and scooted back in the seat. Cassie got back to the hospital and Louis barely even let her stop the car before he was out the door and in the hospital.

Louis didn’t want to wait for the elevator, so he ran up the stairs, right to the 4th floor. He got to the nurses’ station and he had to brace himself before he went in. He still needed to get over the fact that Harry might be more broken than usual.

He felt a hand on his shoulder. “Lou, don’t worry. Everything is fine with Harry.”

Louis nodded and he sent Cassie a shy smile before he finally walked into the room.

“Lou!” Harry had on a big smile and he opened his arms for Louis to take in his embrace. Louis carefully put his body on Harry and they both hugged, neither wanting to let each other go. Louis was bawling into Harry’s chest, and all Harry could do was rub his back to try to calm him down. In the process, Louis ended up on top of Harry, with his legs in between Harry’s. No word was said between the two. Louis ended up crying himself to sleep. Harry was carding his fingers through his hair and looking at the ring that he had in his hand.

“You know, I don’t think that boy slept more than a few hours a day since you’ve been here.”

Harry looked up at the nurse. “He worries too much.”

“He only has a good heart. He may worry too much, but with good intention. Don’t lose him; he’s definitely a keeper.” Cassie left the room, and Harry looked down at the sleeping boy who curled himself into a ball. He smiled softly and decided to take a nap since there wasn’t anything to do with Louis being a asleep and all.

As soon as Harry closed his eyes, everything came back to him. He didn’t like it one bit, though. He started to scream, and Louis had to literally move on top of Harry more to calm him down because he was thrashing so much. “Harry, love. It’s me Louis. You’re alright,” he calmly spoke to Harry as he held his arms down, careful of the cast that encased his left shoulder, only allowing his elbow down for free movement.
