till death...

chapter six

Harry's POV

Louis was right, I needed to get my IV fixed but I was so caught up in the moment and I was gonna get it taken out in half an hour anyways.
——

We just finished sucking each other's face off and I can't stop smiling.

"Why are you smiling?" He looks at me and can't help but smile too.

"I may, or may not, have just made out with one of the hottest guys." We step off the elevator.

"Oh really? Was he at least good?" He plays along with my little act.

"Nah, I've had better." He punches me in the arm.

"Alright , Alright, it was good. Better than good."

"That's more like it." He winks as I open the door.

——

"Harry you better not be walking in here 30 minutes before your supposed to get you IV removed because it fell out." Lisa has her hands on her hips and is giving me a sassy look.

I tell her 'Yes that's exactly why I'm here' with my eyes and she somehow understands.

"Have a seat." She gestures towards a green recliner.

Louis follows and stands awkwardly beside me afraid he's getting in the way. Lisa pulls a stool over for him to sit on.

She starts to unwrap my makeshift bandaging.

"Are you not gonna introduce me to your friend?" She looks up at me and smiles.

"Uh Louis this is Lisa my, uh, my nurse. Lisa this is Louis." I smile back at her sarcastically.

"Nice to meet you." Louis says this so innocently and I can only think about him introducing himself to my mum, this thought makes me feel warm inside. I don't like this feeling.

"mhm." She doesn't even look up at Louis before she continues. "And how did this happen?"

I look at Louis who's looking at me some what panicking.

"I - I um - I just stepped in the cord."

"Oh yeah? Where'd you get the gauze?" She knows I'm lying but I continue my story.

"A janitor walked by and had some on his cart." I'm just pulling stuff out of my ass at this point.

"Well I'm just gonna take it out for now, But when you have your second round tonight I want you to just stay and wait in here."

"But Lisa-"

"No but's." She turns and walks away.

——

I get up and Louis follows me out.

"She definitely doesn't like me." Louis protest.

"Who? Lisa?" I look at him. "She doesn't like any body. She's just a mama bear." I shrug.

"Enough about Lisa. We should do something, something fun." I try to change the subject. I don't want Louis to feel insecure.

"What do you have in mind." Louis looks concerned.

"It's a surprise!"

——

I take him to a park down the street. Everything's covered in snow that's about 3 inches deep. There's two parks near the hospital but I always come to the smaller one since there tends to be less people. Like I suspected there were only three other people, a couple and a woman with a dog.

I walk to the far right of the open field. I pull my hood up and lay down. Louis stares at me.

"What are you doing?"

"Laying in the snow dumb ass." I joke.

He finally lays down beside me.

It's beyond cold but my bodies numb from the walk over here. I look over at Louis and admire him. His side profile is perfect. I'm jealous. It's not long before he catches me staring and smiles.

"Tell me something." I break the silence.

"About what?" His hot breath becomes steam as he speaks.

"You."

"Um okay." He pauses a moment. "My names Louis. Louis Tomlinson. I have Asherson's syndrome. I don't like heights. I'm 17 and I hate living at hospitals."

"Was that good?" He questions.

"It's a start." I laugh.

It's silent again for a few minutes but it's not awkward.

"Aren't you tired?" Louis is serious but I return it with a joke.

"Of you, yeah." He laughs a little. Mission accomplished.

"I'm serious. Aren't you tired of fighting. Like don't you feel like the world is trying to get rid of you and maybe you should just let it?" He sighs lightly.

"Not anymore. I've gotta stay. My mum
couldn't handle it and neither could my sister. Although I am very upset with them right I still wouldn't give up on them."

"what about you?" I return the question.

"Yeah. I'm not getting any better. Every one I love is miles and miles away. There's no point anymore."

"Louis, you promised. You can't break pinky promises." I plead.

"I know." It's quiet for a moment. "You're one of the best things that's happened to me. I know it's only been 2 days but still." He scoots his hand closer to mine and I do the same until our pinky's are touching the slightest bit.
