Darling (Larry Stylinson)

18

*Louis' Pov*

I woke up against a large, warm body. Harrys breathing causing me to rise and fall against him. My head resting against his chest.

Stubble was scattered across his chin, nonchalantly tracing my finger across it softly. I traced the finger against my own bare cheek, reminding me that I was a boy and he was a man.

I placed my lips against his, slowly pulling him from his dreams to me.

His emerald eyes sleepily met mine, a smile forming against his lips as I pulled away.

"Morning, baby." He murmured to me, his hands holding my back.

"Good morning, Haz." I whispered back, my hands against his chest.

This was my favourite place; the only place where Harrys heartbeat was against my ear. Reminding me that I was safe and alive with him close to me.

His soft fingers were tracing against my skin, his touch electric.

I felt a small kiss to my earlobe, then gradually getting lower and lower onto my neck.

"You slept well last night, darling." He mumbled into my ear, care in his eyes.

I smiled softly, "Because I'm with you, you're safe."

I could tell he had a grin on his mouth as wide as time.

"You snore though." I teased him, laughing slightly.

"Do not!" He laughed back, a look of mock horror across his face.

"You sleep talk too." I told him, grinning as I felt his hands run up and down my back.

"Really, boo? What do I say, hmm?" He asked me jokingly, his lips ghosting my cheek.

"That you love me, and you wanna marry me!" I joked, leaving a kiss against his chest.

His chuckles vibrated through his body, my own body moving against his.

"Really, lovely?" He whispered softly, his hand playing with the back of my boxer briefs.

I nodded and twirled one of his growing curls inbetween my fingertips, a small smile against my lips.

My small smile was soon caught against his grin.

********************************

We both got dressed quickly, Harry telling me we needed to get the port before the ferry left.

Harry drove as quickly as he could, his palm escaping out entwined hands so he could get us there on time.

I was wearing some tight, navy skinny jeans, Harry the same but in black. My t-shirt was one of Harry's too, the smell of safety against my skin.

I didn't really know what was happening, I just kept a firm grip on Harry's knee. His hand occasionally petting over my own in comfort.

I'd seen pictures of boats before, but never as many as the ones before me.

There were massive ships with people driving on to, and tiny boats that people had for themselves.

"Wh-Where are we?" I asked him embarrassedly, my cheeks blushing.

"It's called a port, baby. It's where you can go and boats to travel, yeah? We're gonna go on that one." He said to me gently, pointing to a large boat ahead of us.

He smiled softly, telling me how we were just queuing to get the car on, then we could walk around the boat.

I nodded, thanking him.

The car soon began to move, and we drove up a ramp so we were inside of the boat.

Harry parked the car and jogged around to my side, helping me unbuckle the seatbelt that I couldn't quite manage to unplug and taking my hand in his own.

"I missed your hands." He mumbled gently, placing a small kiss to each knuckle.

"And I missed your lips." I returned, a smile against my face. Harry being the only one to give me a real one.

We walked hand in hand around the lower part of the boat for about half an hour, soon walking up to the too deck.

Miles and miles of sea met our eyes, the boat surrounded by grey waters. Water rippled around us, never ceasing. Ramps of water rose and fell against each other in an endless pattern, the air crisp and cold and fresh. It was breathtaking.

"It's, It's really beautiful." I told Harry, my gaze drinking in the sight.

"H-Have you never seen the sea before?" He asked me cautiously, his hand rubbing over my knuckles.

"I've read about it, but never actually been before." I said to him, my head leaning against his shoulder.

We walked hand in hand to the edge of the boat, a barrier in front of us.

"What's this for?" I asked him, my finger tracing along the edge.

He stepped behind me and placed his hands against my waist, stepping so my front was against the boat and my back against Harrys chest.

"It's so you don't fall in, baby." He told me, smiling softly to me.

I nodded, everything making sense now. I leaned further against Harry, making sure I definitely didn't fall in the cold depths.

I felt his laughs vibrate through his body. His hands soon found their way around my waist, lifting me up slightly.

"Wh-What are you doing, Haz?" I asked him, laughing with him.

"You'll see, boo." He replied gently, lifting me up and placing me onto the barrier.

My bum was on the top of the barrier, with my legs dangling over the edge.

I shrieked slightly and tried to move back, but Harrys arms were firmly around my waist.

"P-Please don't drop me! I, I'm so sorry! Please I don't want to die!" I murmured to him pitifully, tears leaking from my clenched eyes.

"Baby. I'd never drop you, okay? You're safe in my arms. I just wanted to show you something, okay?" He told me gently, a kiss behind my ear.

"Open your eyes, lovely? I've got you." I heard him whisper to me.

I nodded slowly, my eyes peeking open.

My legs were dangling over the edge of the boat, the waves rippling over each other. The wind was gusting against my face.

It felt like I was flying.

"See, darling? You trust me, yeah?" He whispered to me, his smile against my neck. I nodded quickly.

"It's like I'm a bird!" I told him excitedly, my arms timidly rising beside me.

Harrys arms were wrapped tightly around my waist, so I wouldn't fall. I trusted him fully, I'm safe with him.

"You're free, baby."
