It is what it is

HARRY's POV

"Harry, how the fuck did this happen? How the hell was he even able to sneak off? Who was watching him?" The Prime Minister yells at me in his office.

"I sent Jeremy and William with him and 12 other guards sir" I say back shamefully.

I knew I would get an ass chewing about this, I should have insisted Louis stay here.

"Well what the hell are they playing at? They know what Louis and Stan are like....fuck...why the hell was he being so stupid" Ben yells.

We are interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Come in" Ben yells.

"Sir, we just received word from Timothy that Louis and Stan were at the hospital seeing Charlotte" Carl tells us.

"What do you mean WERE Carl?" I ask angrily.

"Well, Timothy didn't know they were missing and that he needed to radio it in, when he found out it was too late Stan and Louis made a run for it. They got into a cab....we've located the cab driver but he won't talk, his GPS shows he stopped near the Lucus's though, about a mile out" Carl says.

"Shit....they have gone to the treehouse, get as many men out there and get them home safely" Ben says, he then turns towards me.

"Harry, please go and bring my son home" he asks me, his tone lower and less aggressive.

"Of course Sir" I say and Carl and I are out the door.

LOUIS POV

I can hear my name being called and it sounds a lot like Harry.

"Louis....Stan"

Stan and I look at each other, Stan is tearing up, probably from fear of what the consequences of us running off will be and the fact that these people who are after me know about our secret spot.

Suddenly Harry and a dozen other guards come running into the clearing on the other side of the treehouse. I see Harry visibly relax when he sees us,we don't move and just stand there shocked. Harry then takes in the sight before his eyes and holds the guards back behind him.

"Jesus" he says.

"Louis, Stan. I want you to listen very carefully, don't move okay. We need to check the place out and make sure it's safe. I want you to stay right where you are" Harry tells us sternly. I can tell he is pissed at me.

I gulp and we both nod, not even daring to move an inch.

When the guards finish looking around making sure everything is okay, one whispers something to Harry and then Harry turns and calls to us.

"Okay, Carl and I are going to come and get you both, don't move" he tells us.

They walk carefully around the treehouse really slowly, watching where they are putting their feet.

Carl gets to Stan first and takes him across the chest and lifts him over his shoulder so he can't walk.

Harry then reaches me, he looks at me in the eyes.

"Are you okay?" He asks, his tone still upset with me.

"Yeah...I'm sorry" I whisper.

"We will talk later, right now I need to get you out of here safely, there is a trap to our left, right next to your foot. I want you to keep your eyes on me, I'm going to pick you up and carry you out of here" Harry tells me.

"I'm not some damsel in distress Harry, I can walk myself" I say sassily, I hate feeling like I'm some precious cargo all the time.

"Louis, for the love of God...I've been in enough trouble in regards to you today. Do you think you could just cut me some slack and do as your asked for once. Unless you're quite happy to be blown up on your own way out" Harry tells me curtly.
