Ignore me Niall I'm a sad person and I'll only end up making you sad too. Walk away from me before I become attached to you but it's too late for that. Your so much better off without me because I am a ticking time bomb that one day I'm just going to explode and destroy everything in my way. You should be thanking me cause I'm saving you a heartbreak.
Then I paused as if I'm waiting for him to agree with me and walk away , but what he says catches me off guard.
"It would be an honor to have my heart abused, crushes, or broken by you because that means you gave me a chance to love you".
Then he pulls me in for a Horan hug and for the first time in years I feel like I mean something to someone. Bit deep down I know one day he's going to leave me whether its tomorrow or years from now cause as much as we hate to admit it were all gonna die one day its unavoidable

Stockholm Syndrome (Larry Stylinson)
My heart was beating and adrenaline was running through my body at a thousand miles per second. My hand wrapped around the door knob, but then I was pulled back painfully by my arm. I was whipped around and was face to face with a pissed off Louis. "Where do you think you're going, love?" He asked, and I gulped at how dark his voice sounded. The sane part of me was absolutley terrified of it, and I didn't like it, but the part of me that thought Louis was incredible was so turned on by his dark side. "Answer the question." He said as he squeezed my wrist tighter, and I winced a bit, but I didn't answer the question. "Were you trying to leave? Were you trying to run away from me?" He asked, and I felt his nails digging into my skin. I gave a small yelp of pain and then he was dragging me harshly by my arm down the hall again. He passed the room that I was staying in before and opened another door that was three doors down. He pushed me inside, and I couldn't see a thing. The room was completely dark. I began to breath faster because I've never been a big fan of the dark. I hated it. I didn't like what I couldn't see. I jumped as I felt a hand on my waist and my breath caught as I felt a surge of electricity run through me. I felt him pull me closer to him until my back was against his chest. His lips rubbed against my ear and he slowly whispered out "You can't leave, Harry. You're never gonna get away. I'm not gonna let you."Complete

He did everything that he possibly could to help me to get to the point that I was at then.

Walk on Water or Drown

There's silence for a moment, and everything is still like the world is holding it's breath and waiting for the right moment to exhale.

He's pulling the older lad's body to his own, sitting him up and wrapping his arms around his shivering frame and rubbing reassuring circles on his back with his thumb and he still doesn't stop because all he can think about is: Louis, Louis, Louis.Complete![Survive [Larry Stylinson]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/29913898-256-k916978.jpg)
