The summer holidays had officially started. It was quite warm outside, the Payne's love this time of year. Liam always takes a couple of weeks off of work to spend time together.

This was the first summer with Harry.

Harry looked up at Lucy, who was sat beside him on the sofa.

"When's lessons?" He whispered, shyly.

"Harry love, don't you remember? There's no lessons for six weeks now. We're on holiday!" She smiled down at him, he looked confused.

"You get to spend all your time with us. We do lots of fun things. You'll have a great time!" Louis butted in.

Harry smiled. He'd never had a fun summer before, he'd never spent time outside in the summer either, he was always locked up in his hot bedroom, not even a window open.

Just the thought of that made him panic.

Harry cuddled closer to Lucy and hid his face in her chest.

"What's up love?" Lucy asked sensing Harry was upset.

He whimpered quietly.

She pulled him into her lap.

"Harry, talk to me please."

"Y-You not g-going to sh-shut me in m-my room w-when it's h-hot... can't b-breathe." His stutter was really bad. It got really bad when he panicked.

Lucy tried to calm him down.

"Oh god no! Harry... we'd never do that baby. Come here!" She hugged him tightly, feeling him relax slightly, but could still sense he was crying.

"Harry...do you want to read your magazine with me?" Louis asked.

Harry lifted his head and nodded. He wiped his nose on the back of his hand as Louis sat next to them.

Louis got Harry's magazine out and opened it to the page they'd got to previously.

Lucy sat Harry down next to Louis and went to the kitchen.

"He ok?" Liam asked, he'd been eavesdropping.

"Not really. I can't bear to think of what they did to him. Shutting him up in a hot room in the summer, no windows or air. Poor little boy." She couldn't help the tears that started to fall.

Liam wrapped his arms around her, as the other boys came in from the garden.

"Mum?" Zayn said quietly.

"Mum's ok Zayn, just a bit sad, she'll be ok in a minute" Liam smiled at his son.

Zayn nodded and grabbed Niall's hand and they went back outside.

The rest of the day was full of fun.

The boys were in the pool again.

Harry absolutely loved the water, he was getting really good at swimming now.

Harry seemed quiet during dinner.

"Eat up love. You must be hungry after all that swimming." Lucy said, to a very sleepy little boy.

Harry nibbled on his vegetables, not really wanting to eat much more.

He was squirming in his seat too.

"You need the loo Harry?" She asked him quietly, knowing he still gets embarrassed.

Harry nodded. She got up and walked him to the bathroom.

"Tell me when you're done love" she said as she went to wait outside the door, to give him some privacy.

Harry stood at the toilet and pulled down his shorts and pants.

His tummy was hurting a bit as he did his business. He flushed, washed his hands and went back out to where Lucy was waiting.

"All done? Let's get back to dinner." She took his hand and went back to the family.

Once again Harry just picked, with his chin resting on his hand, while the others tucked in. Harry felt like he could fall asleep at the table and his eyes started closing.

His head got heavy and fell off of his hand and his head fell into his dinner plate with a loud thud, waking him up.

It scared him and really hurt, so he started crying.

"Oh my god! Harry love come on let's get you cleaned up." Lucy said worriedly.

Zayn and Niall giggled at what they'd just witnessed.

"You two...stop it now! It's not funny! Harry's hurt, now say sorry." Liam ordered.

"Sorry Harry!" They said together.

"I'm gonna take him upstairs" Lucy said as she lifted Harry up and walked slowly.

They went to the bathroom, where Lucy cleaned the dinner off his face, noticing a big bruise forming on his face.

She took him to his bedroom and set Harry on the bed, sitting next to him.

"Are you that sleepy eh?" She asked.

Harry nodded. He really was extremely tired.

"You want to go to bed now?"

"Yes....need..." He started saying but stopped.

"What do you need?"

"Wee"

"Again? Must be all that water in the vegetables?" She smiled as she took him to the bathroom again.

Once again Harry was in pain as he tried to wee. He rubbed his tummy, hoping that would help, but it didn't.

Once he'd been, he went back to Lucy.

She helped him get changed into his pyjamas, and settled him in bed.

"Goodnight love. I've left the monitor on til Lou comes to bed. If you need anything just shout?"

"Night!" He whispered tiredly. Soon enough he was fast asleep.


Uh-oh looks like Harry's getting I'll again, poor little lamb.

All the love xxx
