Louis, My Lovely Kitty (larry stylinson fic)

Chapter Eighteen

A few weeks later

Louis woke up in the middle of the night, feeling really thirsty. His body was tangled with harrys' it was quite tough to get out of bed without waking him up. He had his arms wrapped around louis very tightly, and his face buried in his neck. When louis moved a little bit, harry sighed in his sleep and tightened his hold on louis. However, after a few more minutes his grip loosened a bit, so louis slowly got out of bed, successfully avoiding waking his boyfriend.

Harry always kept the dim lights on in the hallways and in living room, so it was easy for louis to go to the kitchen for some water. They keep a bottle filled beside their bed every night, but last time both of them forgot to fill it up after cleaning and drying it. So Louis had to go to the kitchen.

When he was there at the kitchen, he turned on the light. He made his way to the table where glasses and jugs were filled with water. He filled his glass with water and drank from it. When he was done he put the glass at its place and was about go upstairs but suddenly a dog from their neighbourhood howled very loudly. louis jumped at the sudden sound and accidentally his hand touched few plates and glasses on the table and before he could do anything, all of those fell on the floor and broke instantly, causing a huge sound. He got so startled and scared that he couldn't help but scream at the top of his lungs which caused harry to wake up from his sleep instantly.

As soon as harry woke up from his sleep he saw that louis wasn't there. He ran towards the kitchen as he realised that the sound came from there. Somehow he managed to climb down three stairs at one time without having any accident and reached at the kitchen.

when he saw the scene in kitchen, his eyes widened in horror and worry.

Louis was crying and whimpering in pain as he was trying to gather the shredded glass pieces with his bare hands. Harry could already see his hands bleeding badly, who knows how many cuts he has by this time.

" Baby don't do it! " When harry tried to get louis away from the glass pieces he backed away from harry and tried to save himself like someone was gonna beat him, while whimpering through his heart breaking sobs, " P-pwease no hu-hurt lou! p-pw-pwease! lou s-sowwy, so-sowwy! p-pwase no! "

Harry was confused at first, but then he realised that louis thought he is angry on him and was gonna hurt him. It just broke his heart because louis had all these fears because of what happened in the past with him.

Harry stayed in his spot and gently tried to help his boyfriend relax, " lou, i'm not gonna hurt you, ever. you're my boyfriend, how can i hurt you kitten? and its alright, i'm not mad at you baby. But you're hurt and scared, i need to clean your hands and you gotta relax, babe, everything's alright, come here, love, its okay, "

At his assuring words louis looked up at him slowly with his tear filled blue eyes, they looked so blue now that even an ocean won't be able to compete with them. But harrys' focus was more on louis' bleeding hands and scared mind.

" N-not gonna b-beat lou? lou ish s-sowwy ! "

" No baby, i would never ever do that! and you don't need to be sorry , kitten, accidents happen. its alright." harry assured him again, before cautiously moving towards his scared and hurt boyfriend.

He gently picked louis up, mindful of his bleeding and hurting hands. After sitting  him on a chair, harry brought his first aid kit quickly . The he gently washed louis' hands and then bandaged them, luckily there was no glass piece stuck inside his hands' skin. It was a great thing that harry knows a lot of first aid stuff.

While harry was wrapping his hand with bandages, louis said something that made his eyes get dark with an implausible amount of  anger.

" W-when lou was with m-meanie, meanie  beat lou so much... cuz lou b-br-break a bowl. meanie beat lou an'- an' hurt lou an' no give food so long. meanie keep lou in the m-meanie room ( punishment room at his 1st masters' house), an' beat e-everyday. When lou was d-die, meanie let lou go an' give a little food. meanie h-hurt lou s-so much! " louis cried out at the horrible memory.

Harry felt anger rushing throughout his body, making it so tough to keep his control over it and to not find that asshole and put him in his fucking place. But he has louis, now, his number one priority. So he closed his eyes and took deep breaths, before opening them and hugging louis tightly, pouring out care, love, affection and safety in the hug for his one and only boyfriend.

Harry rubbed louis' back to calm him down and when his cries turned into small sniffles, he pulled away a little bit so that he can focus on his lovers' face. he kept one of arms around louis' body  and used the other hand to wipe away his tears. He looked him in the eye and started to speak gently yet with full of sincerity,

" Lou, whatever they did, is nothing you should go through, no one should experience such a thing. Actually they are the ones who must be punished. I'm really sorry that I couldn't keep you safe at that time. But now, I'll keep you safe, till my last breath, I promise. And I would never let anything bad happen to you, I would never hurt you, lou. You are my first love, my last love, my one and only love, I'll always protect you. I love you so much baby, " when he finished, he gently kissed both of his lovers' eyes, which were now puffy from all the tears, with a hope of soothing them. Then he kissed his temple and his kitten ears, followed by peppering his whole face with little, affectionate kisses which caused his face to shine with his brightest smile, while little soft giggles escaped through his lips. When harry was done kissing his face and successfully making him laugh, he kissed his boyfriends' soft, red lips passionately, expressing all of his love and care through the kiss. Louis kissed backed with the same love and care, expressing all of his feelings towards his lover. They had to pull back after a while when louis yawned in the cutest way possible.

Harry chuckled fondly at him and scooped him up in his arms bridal style. He carried him upstairs to their bedroom.  Then he took him to the bathroom and wiped his tear stained face with a wet towel and splashed some water on his face carefully. When they were done, harry went back to the bedroom,  lied him down and tucked him in, before quickly going back to the kitchen and cleaning up the broken glass pieces.

After only a few minutes, he was done. He came back and snuggled with louis, wrapping his arms protectively around his boyfriend, with a promise of keeping him safe and loved under any circumstances.
