"i saw you looking brand new over night, i caught you lookin' too, but you didn't look twice. you look happy."
Harry was out for the first time in six months. He'd been single for six months, he'd been barely eating for six months, he'd been working from home the passed six months. Harry had been slowly killing himself for the passed six months. Because six months ago, the person he was pretty damned sure was the love of his life, walked out on him. Left him all alone, without a clue why.
His, now ex-boyfriend, was in a tight black black dress, fluffy hair that Harry knew he spent an hour was sweaty, sitcking to his forehead. And that's when he saw the reason his boyfriend left him.
Liam Payne.
Harry had hated the man since they were in high school, and he'd stare at Louis in the bleachers while they were at practise, or at games. Either way Harry would take the boy home, and make Louis wear his jersey, and fuck the boy until he knew who he belonged to. Unfortunately, he can't do that anymore, seeing as Louis isn't his.
But oh God, if Louis was still his, and he was out looking like this, and doing these things, he wouldn't be able to walk the next day, and Harry'd have to buy a new bed frame.
"flashin' back to new york city, changing flights so you'd stay with me."
Harry always did everything he could to please Louis, and keep the boy by his side and this is what he gets in return? Empty promises that Louis knew he'd never keep? Things he knew were pointless?
Louis' gone now, out of Harry's sight. But Harry can make out an idea of where Louis might be.
In the bathroom, on his fucking knees, doing things and letting that dickhead see Louis in a way that only Harry should be allow to see. The asshole probably doesn't do the things Harry did for Louis. He'd never do that here, unless Louis' mind was in the right place, though Harry always prefered to be at home, so he could run the boy a bath, and soothe him until he fell asleep afterwards.
Because ninety-five percent of the time Louis went into subspace, Liam probably doesn't give a shit about that. And this angers Harry, because if not treated properly, Louis goes to a dark place and its hard to get him out of it, and the mere thought of Louis going through it on his own, has Harry seeing red.
That man is horrible for his baby- no.
Louis is no longer his baby, he shouldn't care. Louis was no longer his to reminded that the small boy was very much wanted, and that Harry was/kinda is still in love with him, and that he wouldn't trade the boy for anything. But the problem here is, he knows he still cares.
This pisses him off because he wants Louis to hurt like he did, still is even, but at the same the thought of Louis hurting, or being sad, made Harry ready to kill himself and that isn't good. Louis shouldn't be getting to him like this.
"remember thinkin' that i got this right."
Harry had fucked up so many times as a kid, in his adolescense, and even now as an adult. But if there was one thing that Harry thought he got right, it was Louis.
