"I REALLY DON'T CARE IF THIS IS THE MOST SECURE PLACE IN THE WORLD ZAYN! I STILL WANT TWO GUARDS WITH HIM WHENEVER EITHER ME, YOU, OR LIAM ARE NOT WITH HIM, IS THAT CLEAR?" Louis exploded on to his best friend. "Zayn I'm sorry, I'm just worried. I think Grimshit really hurt him. I want him to feel safe here," Louis said.

"It's alright Lou, I know you're under a lot of stress right now and I know you also have a little crush. I forgive you," said Zayn with smirk before walking out of the kitchen with his coffee cup.

"Zayn Malik! You get back here! Louis Tomlinson doesn't get crushes!!" Louis shouted after a laughing Zayn.

"Louis?" came a sleepy voice from the kitchen door way. There stood Harry in some over sized clothes looking like a literal angel.

"Oh! Hi Harry, are you hungry? How long have you been awake?"

"A little and not for long, I just came down. I got a bit lost, the house is really big."

"Right, yeah. Remind me to give you a tour later today. Is there anything you'd like to eat? Today's Louis Tomlinson specials are a bowl of cereal but if you'd like something more I can get our chef in here to make something up," Louis said with a chuckle. He was far from being a good cook.

"A bowl of cereal sounds quite fine, thank you," Harry replied with a smile.

After Harry was done eating Louis led him to their movie theater to talk in private.

"So, would you like to talk about it?" Louis asked Harry.

"Um yeah, actually I think would like to a little bit," Harry said and Louis just silently nodded his head. "I had gone clubbing one night about three months back, I was alone like an idiot. And I met Nick, I thought he was cute and he offered to buy me a drink. I accepted and the next thing I knew I was chained up in his room. He never physically hurt me or anything, never forced himself upon me. Just threatened to, it was mainly just a lot of verbal abuse and going without food and stuff. That's sparing the pretty boring details but I just wanted to say thank you Louis. Thank you for getting me away from him. Even if it wasn't due to the best circumstances."

"Of course Harry. I've been pinning to bring him and his family down for some time now. I want to assure that Sonlinmot has no type of dealings with human trafficking. We actually shut a lot of them down and I will do everything I can to help you," Louis said sincerely making Harry beam brightly at him. "Do you have any family? People or a place to go home to?"

"I uh have my dad but we don't talk and my sister too but she lives in the UK. I don't really have anywhere to go," Harry said sadly. He was starting to panic, was Louis going to kick him out?

"Well in that case you're welcome to stay here, but once you enter the world of Sonlinmot-there's only one way out. If you don't want to be apart of this, go now. I can help you get a place, away from here. You don't have to be apart of this. It's your choice," Louis said. He wanted Harry to stay because as much as he hated to admit it, Zayn was right. In a short time, Louis had developed a minor physical crush on Harry. He thought he was extremely fit but needed to get to know the boy more. The last thing he wanted to do though was to keep him here against his will.

"What about that house tour you promised me?" Harry asked with cheeky smile, confirming that he wanted to stay and that he knew of the conditions and consequences. Louis tried hard to hold back his smile. But part of him wondered why Harry was so calm in this environment. Was it because he had only really met Louis and none of the other mob members? Or was it because this sort of situation was familiar to him?

"Yes of course, and after we can go over a few rules of the house."

The two boys headed down to the ground level. Louis showed Harry the basic things like the garages and the living room and kitchen. He showed him where all the bathrooms are as well. He led Harry down a corridor and into the west wing of the house which contained the home offices, the library, and few meeting rooms.

He told Harry which offices were completely off limits but if he ever needed Louis and couldn't find him, that he was probably in his office. And at anytime Harry had permission to come and knock on his door.

Louis also showed Harry around the back yard where there was a basketball court, a pool and a pool house that doubled as a gaming room.

Louis finally led Harry up the stairs and showed him again to the movie theater, as well as their huge state of the art gym. Then he led Harry to the bedrooms. He told Harry that the bedroom across from his own was actually Louis'. And to the left and right of Louis' bedroom were Zayn and Liam's bedrooms. He told him that a few other important capos lives here along at the mansion and told him that their rooms were off limits. He showed him the servants quarters and told him that at the end of the hall was his aunt and uncles bedroom, which was most definitely off limits. Finally, the pair ended up back in Harry's room.

"So what do you think?"

"It's a lovely house, I really like it."

"Since you're staying, tell me anyway you want your room customized and I'll have it done. No hesitations, I want this place to feel like your home because it is now."

"Thank you Louis, I think there are a few things I'd like to change but I'll let you know."

"We can also take you shopping on Monday to get whatever clothes you want and other necessities such as soaps and stuff, seriously whatever you want Harry," Louis said trying to make the boy as comfortable as possible.

"Thank you Louis, it means a lot."

"Alright, now as much as I hate to switch subjects so quickly, we need to discuss the rules," Louis said sitting up straighter and looking Harry in the eyes. He continued talking when Harry nodded his head. "1. Addressing us-when addressing me or Zayn or Liam in front of capos or soldiers, refer to us as Sir. Whenever talking to my uncle refer to him as Boss or Don. Never call the capos by their name, just Capo and their last name. 2.Always ask me before doing anything you're unsure about, even if it's a small thing. Just in case.
3. Do not go into any off limits room without permission, under any circumstance. Other than that you're free to go anywhere else you wish in the house. 4. If not accompanied by me, Zayn or Liam, you will always have two guards with you. 5. You can not just up and leave whenever, you must tell me beforehand. Those are it, the basic rules. Pretty easy right?"

"Very," Harry said nodding his head. And once again Louis was confused why Harry so quickly accepted the rules but decided not to press.

"A few other things-at some point and time when you're ready, I will start training you to work for KT Fashion. You will have no involvement with Cosa Nostra if you wish not to but that doesn't mean you don't have to work at all. And by the end of the week you will be required to take the omertà. Do you know what that is Harry?"

"That sounds reasonable to me," Harry said nodding his head. "Yeah, I do. It's like an oath, my father use-nevermind," he said. Louis wanted so badly to press on about it but chose not to, knowing that Harry's stepfather was dead.

Harry thinks he was going to like it here, he saw how heavily guarded it was and knew Nick couldn't get to him. He also blinded trusted Louis for some reason, he didn't quite know why. But to him he didn't seem like a crazy successful CEO or mob boss, he was just Louis. A cute boy who was showing him the first bit of compassion he's seen in a long time.

"Alright good, that's all for now. Do you need anything else?" Louis asked, content with how well it seemed Harry was going to fit in around here.

"Not really," Harry said shaking his head.

"Perfect. Dinner will be at 6, don't be late. I'll be in my office if you need me," Louis said leaving the room. And leaving behind a daydreaming Harry.
