"Harry, I-I'm so sorry..." Louis stutters out, trying to keep his voice level and even, to portray a depiction of strength, but with the way Harry is looking at him, staring at him like he has a personal passage way straight to Louis' soul, it's so hard, nearly impossible.

That simple opening phrase, that short introductory acknowledgement that is often rushed out so easily, painlessly, at a safe distance. Giving a doctor the ability to portray empathy without true emotion, without feeling the full brunt and sheer force of the underlying pain itself.

But Louis feels it, he feels the crushing agony laced behind the phrase, he feels the weight of the painful words slipping from his lips, the cause and effect that the three-word expression holds. The distantly empty "I'm so sorry" that doctors throw out in self-preservation, isn't at all empty for him. Louis recognizes it, he understands it, he feels it.

✚☤✚

a fated story of two broken and battered boys who barely survived the unimaginable and how the love of one little brave girl defies all the odds and somehow puts them back together.

TWIST H.S. by unfuckwitary
36 parts Ongoing Mature
Harry once asked me what was the most painful thing I've endured in my life, I couldn't answer to him back then but, hearing his desperate plead for me to hold on I got my answer now. ¨Hold on please, darling.¨ And for the first time since knowing him I wanted to listen to him only now I physically couldn't but I forced myself for him, for my ray of sunshine, for my angel. It took everything in me to open my eyes but I mustered all my energy and weakly opened them to see my favorite shade of green staring back at me, and almost as a reflex ever so slowly my lips curled up at the sight of him. However, at the sight of me grief washed all over his face. I'm here but it's as if he was mourning me. I've never felt so helpless in my life, I wanted to assure him that this isn't his fault, I wish I had the strength to. ¨I'm sorry baby, I'll get us out of here.¨ Watery eyes and a determined face promised me and the only thing I could muster was a weak smile. And with that he turned to face our aggressor. ¨My house, my chair, my wife,¨ At the sound of the last word my heart literally skipped a beat and I swear my eyes almost budged off my face when a second ago I could barely keep them open. ¨You better kill me before I fucking get free, you're on borrowed time and I fucking swear I'll have the time of my life making you pay for what you're doing to my wife.¨ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's not the most ideal thing to be a mafia leader with two kids, and it surely isn't the most logical thing to fall in love with your enemy. -------------- A dark Harry fic with a little twist. Or maybe two.

Nina gets obliged to move from her home town. Leaving her family, friends and most importantly football team behind. After being the captain of her team she gets put face to face with the hardships of starting it all over again, from scratch, from ZERO. Will she get back on her feet? What would Louis Tomlinson have to do with her recovery journey? What will happen if she fails? Will she go back leaving her new experience behind? ↭ "For how long have you been fucking him?" I heard from behind me and rolled my eyes. "You back at this again?" "I never left it Nina. You know what really hurts is that I genuinely thought you had a little bit of sanity and cared in the slightest way about me. My feelings!" He said. But I do care, I like myself around him. "Okay even if I did that's none of your business! It was long before I even started liking you!" "What the fouck is that supposed to mean? You were going out with me while shagging another lad?" "I wasn't shagging!" I gritted. "I even turned him down because I'd feel guilty" "Yes were!" "Fine! He was a better shag at least, he's not making a big deal of everything and shouting all the time!" I retorted impulsively, as soon as I realized what I just said Louis's eyes were looking down. I didn't mean it. "I'm sorry, this is over. You can go back to him, you don't have to feel guilty for me." Louis said tumbling. "L... Louis" I tried. He walked away. I lost him. ↭ Cover by~ KattyMonsmert Thanks alot bbe, I can't thank you enough.

"Come on, do it, curse, scream, yell at me, hit me, do whatever you have wanted to do all these years." He just stares at me, not doing anything. "Do something! I made a mistake, and I am paying for it, and as if watching you, letting go of yourself as I'm not able to do anything is not enough! I have to watch our friends suffer the consequences of my mistakes. Our friends are done with our bullshit, Harry. And quite frankly, so am I..." Silence. "Say something for God's sake!" I yell, and I look up just to see him with his head bowed down and his shoulders shaking as he sobs . This is all my fault. This is my mess. ... "I believe you, just like I should have from the start." He says gently, and I just cling on him more as I feel his warmth and hear his heartbeat. "Your heart is beating so fast..." I whisper as if it was a secret. "It's beating for you... Always for you, it never stopped beating for you."
