Harry found Louis down by the ocean.

The view of his naked body from the stairs of the beach house was absolutely breathtaking.

He had startled Harry when he had stormed out like that.

He wasn't sure why Louis had gotten so upset.

Could it have been something he had said? He wasn't sure. But he had to find out.

Harry slowly made his way down the stairs and onto the warm sand.

It got more hotter as he neared the patches that the sun was beaming down onto.

Louis didn't seem to hear Harry coming.

He was still stood frozen in front of the waves that washed onto the shore in a steady stream.

"Louis?" Harry said softly as he approached him.

Louis didn't answer.

Harry sighed placing a hand on Louis' shoulder.

"Talk to me..what's wrong?" He asked sweetly.

He could feel how tense the older male was under his palm and it worried him.

"Stay away from me.." he demanded shoving Harry's hand off of him.

Harry felt as if he had been slapped across the face.

"Lou?.." Harry squeaked not sure what to do.

"Please tell me what's wrong I can help.." he begged, stepping closer to him.

Louis stepped backwards more, away from Harry.

Harry was both frustrated and confused with his sudden change in behaviour.

"Don't do that!" He cried tossing his hands up in the air.

Harry glared at him in confusion.

"Do what Louis?!" Harry asked, his voice close to a shout.

Louis was getting on his last nerve with these guessing games.

"Act like you care when you obviously don't!" Louis shouted in anger.

Harry stared at Louis in annoyance.

"Who says I don't care?!" Harry cried stepping towards him.

"I didn't save your life and come back fighting for you with everything I had in me and save your friend Zayn for nothing! And I sure as hell didn't make love to you because I didn't care about you! I do care for you Louis! Don't you get it?! I know we've only met and I know it seems sudden but you mean the world to me! I would never hurt you and I won't let anyone else hurt you either!" Harry told Louis.

He could feel his anger bubbling over and could feel the tears behind his eyes building up more and more.

"What ever gave you the idea that I didn't care about you?" Harry asked. He could hear his own voice crack with sadness.

Louis slowly turned away from the ocean to face Harry.

He looked at him with blood red eyes that were swollen from crying and inhaled deeply.

"I was cheated on so many times..I fell for them so hard over and over again when I knew they'd hurt me.

Niall and Magnus had warned me that if I keep going for guys they way I was, I was going to get more and more hurt. I didn't listen of course and then one day Zayn came along. He seemed like the sweetest person and I tried so hard not to fall for him but I did..and one night when we made love, he left..and the next day he came home a totally different person. I tried to ask him what was wrong but he got angry with me and hit me.." Harry could hear Louis' voice break at the last part.

"He hit you?!" Harry cried but suddenly remembered the guy who had hit Louis wasn't Zayn. It was the demon inside him.

"I tried to escape but he threatened me and told me if I did, he would kill me and everyone I cared about. So I stayed with him and agreed to marrying him when he asked. I thought I'd never be able to escape the marriage but then you came along..and..and I had hope.." Louis explained kicking sand with his foot.

"That night when you came into my room..after you heard me crying..I had to pretend to be upset with you..part of me was a little upset with you though because I was afraid of getting close to you too..he could have killed you too..and I didn't want to take that chance.. but after you left and gave me that rose saying that you were here for me..I made a decision that I would kill Zayn. Even if it meant I die trying. I was sick of it. So when we left that day, I took my chance and I killed him. And then when I noticed that Zayn had been poisoned. I knew I had to take him to you. And thank the angel you were there to save him. I would have never been able to live with myself if he died.." Louis shook his head fighting back more tears.

Harry slowly approached Louis and put a hand on his back.

Louis looked up at Harry and stared at him.

"But after you saved him..I realized that I had no romantic feelings for him whatsoever..I..I looked at you and it felt like I could see my entire life with you..and weird as that sounds.. it's true..I want to have a relationship with you Harry. " Louis squeaked.

Harry wrapped his arms around Louis and gazed deep into his ocean blue eyes.

"That's not weird at all. Because I thought the same exact thing the moment I saw you." Harry smiled.

"I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. I hate that you had to. But I want you to know I'd never ever let anyone or anything hurt you. Ever. I will keep you safe and that's a promise." Harry said placing a hand on Louis' damp cheek.

"I love you Louis Tomlinson." He said wiping a tear away with the pad of his thumb.

Louis reached for Harry's wrist and held it.

"I love you too Arry'." He smiled staring lovingly at the other man's emerald eyes with so much love he thought his heart would burst.

Harry leaned in to kiss Louis on the lips.

Louis gasped in surprise and wrapped his arms around Harry's waist bringing him closer.

After about a moment the two pulled away breathing heavily.

"So..does this make us..boyfriends?" Louis stuttered.

Harry grinned at the shadowhunter and nodded.

"I mean..if you're ready for that step..then yes it does." Harry nodded.

"Of course I'm ready." Louis grinned leaning in to kiss Harry some more. ___________________________________ Hey guys! So sorry for that wait but I've been really busy!
