"Oh no. Hope she feels better soon Lou. Send her all our love. Ok. Bye." Liam ended a phone call from their hair stylist, Lou.

"What's wrong with Lux?" Niall asked.

"She's got chicken Pox. Poor thing. She's itching like crazy." He answered. "She was just checking that we'd all had it as it's very contagious."

The boys had babysat for her a short while ago.

All the boys said they'd had it before, so there was nothing to worry about, especially as the tour was due to start in two weeks time.

But....a week later....

"Harry...you have to get up now, the car is picking us up in an hour for the tv interview." Louis said as he stepped out of the shower in the en suite.

Harry groaned. He had woken up ten minutes ago, feeling like shit. The last thing he wanted to do was sit in a stuffy studio talking about the tour again.

"Come on lazy!" Louis pulled the duvet off of Harry.

"Leave me alone Lou. I feel like crap."

"Aww poor baby. You need a shower love, up you get."

Louis pulled on Harry's hands as he sat up.

"What's this on your back Harry?" He asked.

"I don't know. I don't have eyes in the back of my head. What is it?"

"Oh shit Harry!"

"What? Lou...what is it?" Harry was worried now.

"I could be wrong, but this looks like chicken pox to me."

"What? No! It can't be. I'm sure I had it when I was little." He replied.

"I'm pretty sure it is. I've seen it when my sisters had it. Plus, remember Lou said Lux had it?"

Harry fell back on to the mattress. That's why he wasn't feeling well then.

"You're kidding right?" Zayn said trying not to laugh. "He said he'd had it."

"Well...he obviously didn't. I'll get our doctor to confirm. If it is, he might not be able to do the start of the tour."

"He's gonna hate that." Niall said.

The doctor was called. He confirmed it. Damn.

🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣

"You sure you'll be ok?" Louis asked. He didn't want to leave Harry, but the rest of them needed to do the interview without him.

"I'll be fine Louis. It's not like I'm dying." He fake smiled. He was feeling more and more itchy and sick.

"Ok. Well I'll leave my phone on. Text if you need me. We won't be more than a couple hours. You rest." Louis kissed him goodbye.

Harry feels so rough. His skin has blisters all over now, they just appeared so quickly and they are driving him crazy. Louis told him not to scratch them in case he got scarred. Louis had shown a couple of scars he had from when he had them.

He lay in bed, but the sheets were uncomfortable against the blisters, so he got up and decided to take a cool shower, hoping that maybe it would help the itching.

After ten minutes, he had enough and got out, he dried himself and just put some boxer shorts on.

He went downstairs, turned the tv on and found a film to watch on netflix.

He opened the windows as he was sure he had a bit of a temperature.

He laid on the sofa and tried watching the film, but ended up falling asleep.

Two hours later, the boys were home, they walked in the house talking loudly.

Louis spotted Harry on the sofa. "Shhh...Harry's asleep."

The others went into the kitchen while Louis checked on Harry.

"Oh God. Look at your beautiful face." He whispered as he gently moved some curls from Harry's forehead. He could feel the heat radiating off of his skin.

Harry fidgetted, trying to rub his blisters on the fabric of the sofa. Louis placed his hand on Harry's arm.

"Hey love. Try not to do that." He said quietly.

Harry's eyes opened slowly and he smiled up at Louis. "Hi."

"Hello gorgeous.  How are you feeling?"

"Awful. Hot. Itchy. Fed up. Glad you're home." He replied.

Louis smiled back at him. "We popped in the chemist on the way home. Got you some calamine lotion for the blisters. You want me to put it on you?"

"God yes. It's driving me nuts."

Louis helped Harry to sit up and sat behind him.

"It's gonna be cold, but hopefully it'll help."

Harry nodded as he heard Louis open the bottle. He put some on some cotton wool and dabbed it gently onto Harry's hot skin.

"Ahh...god that feels nice." Harry groaned. Louis smirked.

"Oi oi...get a room you two!" Niall said as he happened to walk in right at that moment, Zayn and Liam behind him.

"Fuck off Niall" Louis laughed.

The boys sat down and put the football on the tv.  "How are ya Hazza?" Zayn asked.

"Feel like I have ants crawling all over me. But...oh god that feels so good." He groaned again as Louis continued with his dabbing.

"Oh please Lou...just fuck him!" Niall said, laughing.

Harry blushed. Louis tried to hide his giggle.  Liam rolled his eyes.

"What do you think Haz? You up for it?" Louis whispered in Harry's ear.

Harry gasped. "Um...maybe. later?"

That made Louis happy.

Half an hour later, Harry was asleep, his head on a cushion on Louis' lap.

"He looks pale." Liam said, concerned. "I mean paler than normal."

"Poor lad. You take care of him Lou." Niall said.

"Course I will. They don't call me Doctor Lou for nothing."

"Doctor Lou?" Zayn laughed.

"Shhh. Don't wake him up."

Harry fidgetted again. "Urgh stop itching!" He grumbled trying to rub his back.

"Try not to love." Louis said, taking his hand.

"Can I go to bed?" Harry said. Louis looked at his phone. It was only 4pm.

"Bit early love. But yeah I'll take you up." He helped Harry up off the sofa.

"Get well soon Hazza." The boys said together.

He smiled a little and walked upstairs with Louis.

"Will you stay with me?" Harry said quietly as Louis tucked him in the bed.

"Um...yeah ok. As long as I can put the tv on."

Harry nodded.

Louis got into the bed and laid down next to Harry. He moved closer until he was close enough to wrap his arms around Harry's body.

He soon fell into a restless sleep, cuddled up with the man he loved.





Oi oi

How's everyone?

Hope you're all safe and well.

All the love L
