The Aftermath

Louis POV

It's been a rough few weeks. Harry is not the same anymore. He is super paranoid everywhere we go and he is also really quiet. School is the worst part of it all though. When he is class, he has major episodes and is always sent home early. My mom gave me permission to stay with Harry until he is better. Anne has been helping me also in the process. There have been so many times where I wanted to break. Just to have a big breakdown and cry all my feelings out. But I have to be strong for Harry. I have to.

Right now I am driving to Harry's house since I just got out of school. I invited the boys over because I know they are missing Harry. He has been so distant to them. He is a little distant from me but not a lot. I am not mad about it either. He went through a lot and now he feels all that coming back. I walked into their house and went upstairs to Harry's room. I opened his door and saw Harry crying on his bed. I ran to him.

"Hey babe what's wrong?" I asked him. He was shaking so much in my arms.

"He's here. He was standing at the edge of my bed. He smiling at me." he said and I looked at him with sorry eyes.

"Babe you are hallucinating. He was never here." I told him but he shook his head no frantically.

"B-b-but it looked so real. How is it not?" he said and I just shrugged my shoulder. He nodded his head and started crying more. I held him until he fell asleep. Once he fell asleep, I laid him down on his bed and covered him up. I leaned down and kissed his head before leaving his room and going downstairs. I was doing my homework for about 30 minutes when I started hearing yelling.

"NO NO GET OFF OF ME!" Harry screamed. Oh no he is having another nightmare. I got up from the chair and started running up the stairs. "LOUIS HELP ME! LOUIS" he was yelling frantically. I opened the door and ran to him. I started shaking him awake.

"Harry open your eyes!" I told him but he was still fighting me off. "Harry wake up!" I yelled and he finally opened his eyes. He looked at me and started bursting into tears. I held him.

"I thought you weren't going to come. I was so scared" he said. I held him tighter.

"I'll always come to you Harry." I told him and he nodded his head. It's been like this for the past 3 weeks. He hasn't slept at all and when he does, he always has nightmares. I don't know what to do. I want this to all stop. That's how the rest of the afternoon and night went. Harry having nightmares and me comforting him after. To say I am stressed and tired is a major understatement. But I don't really care because I will do anything for my Harry.

Harry finally fell asleep again and this time it doesn't look like he is having a nightmare which is good. I stripped my clothes and got into bed with him. As I was about to turn around and hold him, his phone went off. I turned around and saw he had a message. I opened it and I was confused.

Unknown Number: Hey Harry. Have I ever told you that you look so pretty when you sleep?

Unknown Number: Man those nightmares look pretty crazy.

Unknown Number: Oh btw it's Nick :)

Unknown Number: I know you are probably thinking "how the hell did you get my number?" Well let's just say I met up with a friend named Ed. He didn't talk much at first until I beat it out of him.

All these messages are taking a spam of a few weeks now. He has been getting messages from Nick and he didn't say anything. That's probably why Harry is so paranoid all the time. Nick has been taunting him.

Unknown Number: So Harry I know where you live and I have been watching you for a few days now.

This one is from tonight.

Unknown Number: I can't wait to have you back in my life. God I miss you so much Harry.

Unknown Number: I know you are seeing these so I am just going to say it.

Unknown Number: If you don't leave Louis, something bad will happen. Maybe someone will get killed? Maybe jumped? Maybe Zayn? He seems like a fighter huh? Niall and Liam too. Oh and let's not forget about your precious Louis. Hmm. I'll get him good.

My blood ran cold.

Unknown Number: but yea I'll text you tomorrow.

Unknown Number: Oh and Louis, stop reading your boyfriend's messages

I froze. I turned around and looked at the window and I saw someone standing across the street.

Unknown Number: byeee

What the hell am I going to do!? I didn't sleep that night. I wanted to make sure Nick didn't come in here during the night. Harry has been getting messages from him for weeks now. Why didn't he tell me? No I am not mad, just disappointed. I need to come up with a plan. This can't go on for longer. I am going to stop Nick for good. I am going to do this for Harry.
