Behind Closed Doors

Harry's p.o.v.

"So how do we blackmail Levi?" I asked Liam. He tends to plan better than the rest of us so we all looked at him for guidance.

"Well... I don't think you're gonna like it H..." He looked down making me nervous.

I was fuming with anger but I had to keep it all in. The fact that anyone could hurt Louis like this was making my blood boil.  Heat was radiating off of me from the anger I had within.

"I don't care if I like it. I'm here for whatever it takes so spit it out." Everyone looked at me a little shocked. I never snap at people like this, but I couldn't help it. Louis had become my person and he can't even be mine.

"Okay... So uh.... Louis," he shifted his gaze to the boy above me as did the rest of us, "so we know Levi is... aggressive..." he spoke so softly trying not to worry Louis.

Louis nodded his head averting his gaze from us. I could tell he was embarrassed that he let it get this far. I wish my words could help him realize he hasn't done anything wrong, but I knew this was a battle he had to fight alone.

"What usually causes him to get like that?" Liam was trying his hardest to speak calmly so Louis felt safe. I could feel Louis tense while he held me but he took a deep breath and relaxed a little.

"Uh it usually happens if I'm not compliant." He sighed embarrassed to even talk about it. I cuddled closer before giving him a little kiss of encouragement on his cheek. He smiled.

"Take your time," I whispered to him. He nodded before continuing.

"If I raise my voice, insult him, or talk about wanting Harry."

I couldn't help but feel guilty. I introduced Levi and Louis. Had I just stayed in my sweaters and button ups Levi would've never talked to me and we all would've avoided this. I started dressing like this as a 'fuck you Louis'. I wanted to be petty but I ended up hurting Louis. Revenge is never as sweet as it sounds.

"So Levi is going to be at your house around 1 right?" Liam asked. Louis nodded confirming. "Well... I was thinking we could have a person sit in your closet while Levi is over. You could go up to your room with him and start intentionally pushing his buttons..." I already didn't like where this was going, but Liam continued. "The person in the closet could film it. We need to catch how he acts behind closed doors. I think that's the only way we can get him enough that he'll end his sick twisted game." Liam seemed unsure of his own words as he finished what he was saying.

Silence quickly consumed us as we all began to feel the weight of Liam's plan. I hated this idea. He wanted to put Louis in danger to catch Levi in the act of his abuse. I wanted nothing more than to argue and yell, but I didn't know what else we could do. Levi is playing a sick game and unfortunately we have to play along. I felt queasy just thinking about what it was we were all agreeing to.

"Okay," Louis broke the silence, "let's do it."

"Louis you don't have to we can think of something el-" Louis interrupted me.

"Haz, what other way? Levi is a master manipulator." He sighed. "So who's waiting in the closet?"

"Me," the word fell out of my mouth before I had time to catch it. Everyone looked at me with rather wide eyes. "I will." I stated.

"Harry I don't know if that's a good ide-" Zayn began.

"No, it should be me. I started this mess by bringing Levi into your lives. I want to take this son of a bitch down, for Louis." I looked up at him. I could see the nervousness slowly creeping up on him. "I need to do this. Please?" I needed Louis to agree because what I was going to witness was going to be extremely vulnerable.
