The next two days without Harry in school were very relaxing and pretty fun... for school. The boys spent every minute together and got to know each other better. They cracked jokes, helped each other in class and just had a lot of fun in general. They were even the first two groups to be done with their music project. They were a great team. 

Zayn got a few confused looks from Liam and annoying questions from Niall as they saw the big Hickey on Zayn's neck but he didn't say a word. He always just said 'I don't kiss and tell'. Every time that happened, pretty often because Niall can be very annoying, Louis couldn't stop grinning like crazy. This situation was actually pretty funny for them. Maybe someday they would tell them, maybe not. 

Unfortunately Harry was back on Friday. You could feel it immediately. Liam was torn where to go and Zayn was still so angry that Louis had to held him back before he did anything stupid. Harry literally ignored all of them or glared their way. It was as if he would take a deep breath before the big attack. That scared Louis to death.

When the bell finally rang and Maths was over Louis couldn't be happier. The lesson was so boring he almost fell asleep. Zayn, Niall and Louis gathered their stuff together and wanted to leave the class but Harry stopped them. 

"I knew you were a complete failure and your poor ass isn't used to nice things but you're a thief now too?" looked Harry him up and down in disgust. The wounds of Harry's punches still visible on Louis. 

"Did you loose your mind now?" had Louis no idea what Harry was talking about. 

"You're poor ass would never be able to afford such expensive things like this or the new watch. Just because you have no money you can't steal them" pointed Harry at a Rolex Watch on Louis' wrist and a necklace around his neck. 

"Harry, don't" wanted Liam to go in between. 

"Was stealing even worth it? It doesn't suit you I might say. The watch is way too big for you and that necklace looks ridiculous on you. Girls wear stuff like that, but you're a boy, or did I miss something?" asked Harry him with a smug look on his face. 

"Say whatever you want, Harry. I don't care what you think about me. Call me a girl or poor, it doesn't matter. But don't accuse me of being a thief. That goes to far" Louis didn't give in. 

"You mean as far as my fist in your face?" smirked Harry down at him. 

"You did not just say that?!" growled Zayn next to Louis, who flinched at Harry's words. 

"Zayn, leave it. He's not worth it" held Louis him back. 

"Pfft, I'm worth everything. You're worthless, fag" spat Harry and pushed Louis against the shoulder. 

"Don't fucking touch me" glared Louis at him. 

"Or what? You punch me with your tiny fists like you did with that pussy Aidan? Or do you prefer crying on the floor like the crybaby you secretly are?" mocked Harry him. 

"That's enough boys. I don't tolerate such a behaviour in my class room. To the headmaster's office you two" intervened their teacher now. 

Without any protest Louis walked out of the class room with Zayn and Niall and made his way to Mr. Cowell's office. Harry was right behind them with Liam. This was exactly what Louis didn't miss the last two days. 

Niall, Liam and Zayn waited outside while Harry and Louis sat down in two seperate chairs in front of Mr. Cowell's desk, who was looking at them with a neutral face. 

"You again, Mr. Styles. Shouldn't you stay out of trouble for a while? Especially in connection with Mr. Tomlinson?" raised Mr. Cowell an eyebrow at him. 

"I did nothing wrong, Sir. He stole a watch and a necklace and I just pointed it out. That's it" claimed Harry and even believed himself. 

"What? I did NOT steal anything. Stop accusing me of being a thief" huffed Louis annoyed. 

"You could never afford those things on your own. You're way too poor for that. So when you didn't steal it where did you get it?" challenged Harry him. Louis stayed silent. He couldn't tell him. 

"Mr. Styles, please wait outside. I want to talk to him alone" asked Mr. Cowell Harry. 

With a groan Harry stood up loudly and left the room. Louis averted his gaze to the floor instead of looking into his headmaster's face. Mr. Cowelll let out a deep sigh. 

"Louis, why do you let him do this to you all the time? First the beating and now this in just one week? Why don't you do something?" asked Mr. Cowell worried. 

"And what? Ignoring him only makes it worse so I talk back but I would never... I can't hurt him. I don't know why but I can't. I just try to live with it and take his bullsh.... his nonesense but it doesn't work all the time, like you can see" defended Louis himself. 

"But why does he accuse you of stealing, Louis? I know you're far from poor. Why does he think you are and why don't you just correct him?" tried Mr. Cowell to understand the situation. 

"I don't know why he's thinking that. I actually don't understand anything he does but I just don't care. I don't feel the need to correct him. Someday I will never see him again....hopefully" shrugged Louis. 

"Did you ever tried to talk it out and get to know why he's acting like that to you?". 

"That's sadly not how it works" sighed Louis in defeat. 

"Is that your moter's necklace?" changed Mr. Cowell the topic. Before you ask, he knew his mother and knows his father. So technically he's a family friend. 

"Yes. I felt the need to have it with me today. It happened so much these last few days" confirmed Louis and let his fingers wander over the necklace. In it was a picture of his mother and him from when he was little. 

"I noticed. You're friends with Zayn Malik and Liam Payne now. How does this work out with Harry though?" checked Mr. Cowell. 

"It's difficult but it works. Kinda. Liam is kinda torn but Zayn just wants to have Harry's head since Monday" said Louis with a chuckle. 

"Understandable. Sometimes I really wonder what happened to him" mused Mr. Cowell distantly. 

"No matter how he treats me I still think there is something good in him. Somewhere deep inside. Maybe that's why I couldn't hurt him back" thought Louis out loud. 

"I think you're right. I remember a time where he was totally different. Now he just causes trouble and bullies people and I have no idea why" remembered Mr. Cowell, making Louis even more curious to find out what happened. 

"Well, I have to let you go now. Your next class starts in a few minutes. I'd say I see Harry in detention today. His behaviour is not okay" clapped Mr. Cowell into his hands. 

"Give me detention too" begged Louis suddenly. 

"What? Why? Until now it would only be Harry. Do you really want to be alone with him in one room for a whole hour?" questioned Mr. Cowell. 

"Not really but if I don't get anything he will ask questions I don't want to answer, so please" pleaded Louis desperately. 

"Well fine. You're really something" chuckled Mr. Cowell and stood up. 

"Thank you, Sir" beamed Louis at him and followed him to the door. 

"Styles, detention with Tomlinson today. If you don't show up I will have your head" announced Mr. Cowell and winked at Louis at the last part. 

Harry just groaned very loud and left for his class. Zayn and Niall went with Louis to their lockers, put out their Chemistry things and headed to their last lesson for today. After Lunch Louis would now go through living hell just to keep Harry away from his life. 

--

The boys were sitting at their table for lunch with Eleanor and that Elli girl from Louis' music course. They were talking, also about what happened with Harry, until they noticed that Zayn still wasn't there. As Louis started to look around Zayn came into the cafeteria with a smug look on his face. 

"Z, where have you been?" asked Louis confused. 

"I was outisde and well I got detention too now" scratched Zayn his neck awkwardly. 

"How did you manage that?" snorted Niall laughingly. 

"Um... I may or may not broke a window totally accidently in front of our headmaster" grinned Zayn sheepishly. 

"Zayn, you're crazy" exclaimed Eleanor. 

"Crazy in love with you" sing songed Zayn. "Can't leave you alone with Harry, huh darling?" winked Zayn at him, causing Liam to frown deeply. 

"Awww, are you crashing windows now to be with your crush?" cooed Harry at them, who appeared next to their table. 

"Nawww, did you actually think you're funny?" mocked Louis him. 

"Shut your mouth, you filthy fag. Be glad you only got detention instead of the police snooping through your poor life" hissed Harry at him. 

"Harry, that's enough. Why do you even bother so much? Just leave us alone when you can't be normal" scolded Zayn him pissed off. 

"I'm so done with you protecting your lover boy, Zayn. You should've taken Liam. He's at least close to your level" rolled Harry his eyes annoyed. 

"Who the fuck do you think you are?" jumped Elli up and faced Harry very annoyed. 

"Stay out of this, bitch. It's none of your business" growled Harry at her. 

"Don't talk to her like that" defended Louis his new friend. 

"Aww, how cute. Such a shame you're too tiny to protect anyone" made Harry fun of Louis' height. 

"What the fuck is your problem? Just stop this bullshit, Harry. Take your pathetic life and leave us alone. No one needs you here. Come back when you can use your brain. Louis is amazing and you don't deserve to even look at him. Just get lost" was Elli losing her patience with Harry right now. 

"I said shut up" hissed Harry at her and held his hand up. 

Louis jumped in front of her as Harry was about to hit her in the face. The next second a burning pain shoot through his cheek as Harry's bare hand collided with his face. He really would have slapped a girl. Louis couldn't believe it. 

Liam, Niall and Eleanor all gasped in shock at the scene. Elli behind Louis automatically looked if he was okay. Zayn was losing it. He walked over to Harry and wanted to show him how this all feels like but Liam held him back gently. 

"Zayn, don't. You're better than that" said Liam softly and Zayn calmed down immediately. 

"Louis, are you okay?" asked Elli worriedly. "Why did you do that?".

"Better me than you. Slapping a girl is disgusting" held Louis his red cheek but smiled at her bravely. 

"Slapping an innocent girl, really Harry? What has gotten into you? I thought you were better than that. You should leave. You already have detention and just got suspended. Don't make it worse" Liam couldn't believe it. He was speechlees. 

Harry looked at Louis one last time and for the first time in forever they really had short eye contact that wasn't filled with pure hatred. Louis saw something in Harry's eyes for a split second but he couldn't put his finger on it. It was gone as soon as it was there. Without a word Harry left and it fell silent around them. 

---

Detention was literally the most boring thing in this school. You were just sitting in an empty classroom and did absolutely nothing. The teacher even left for a while for whatever reason and now Harry, Zay and Louis were just sitting there waiting that the time was over. You weren't allowed to do your homework in that time because it was a punishment. That was so stupid. Homework was a punishment too.

Harry was sitting bored at one table far away from Zayn and Louis. The two boys were sitting close to each other with their heads low, whispering and giggling all the time. The events of that.... encounter on Louis' bed hadn't changed anything between. Well, except from being a little bit more dirty and cracking sexual jokes no other would get. 

"Did I tell you that I think the necklace suits you very well? It fits your eyes" flirted Zayn jokingly. 

"Zayn, my eyes are blue. It's silver" ruined Louis the moment on purpose. 

"C'mon, give me break. I'm bad at this, Tommo" groaned Zay loudly. 

"This explains why you're single" scooted Louis closer to him. 

"Is that good or bad?" asked Zayn seductively. 

"Well, it's good for me" winked Louis at him, stood up and sat down on the table right in front of Zayn. 

"Then its good for me I see" lay Zayn his hands on Louis' hips and moved closer to him. 

"You know Zayn, maybe you should keep making your bad attempts of flirting. This will keep the bitches away" wrapped Louis his arms around Zayn's neck and could barely hold in his laughter. 

"Mh you would like that, huh?" wiggled Zayn his eyebrows weirdly. 

"Oh yeah I would" breathed Louis into his face, cracking a smile. 

"Eww, God, get a room. I really don't need to see this" gagged Harry at them. 

"Well, we have a room. Not my problem you're in here too" shrugged Zayn and pulled Louis down on his lap. 

Louis let out a suprised yelp but Zayn steadied him so he wouldn't fall down and Louis tightened his grip on Zayn's neck. "Uh, you're very eager today, honey" chuckled Louis. 

"Always for you" joked Zayn with a wink. 

"Can you keep it down?" groaned Harry annoyed. 

"Why? Are we bothering you?" grinned Louis smugly. 

"He's just jealous he gets no attention from some half naked girl right now" snickered Zayn evilly. 

"At least I get it later. You only have him" shot Harry back.

"C'mon, just stop it. We're not twelve any more" intervened Louis now. 

"But you still look like it with that glasses and colourful pants, just saying" countered Harry unbothered.  

"Urgh whatever" waved Zayn him off and focused back on Louis. 

"You know he's wrong, right?" checked Zayn in a whisper. 

Louis only nodded and faked a smile. Harry had often insulted him for his glasses or choice of clothes and it really hurt Louis a lot. He wanted to change who he was so badly but that wasn't so easy. He was still willing to do it. 

Shortly after that the teacher came back in but didn't comment on Zayn and Louis' position. They were talking quietly in a whisper while Harry was glaring at them until the hour was over. Harry was the first to sprint out of the room. Zayn and Louis just shook their heads at him and then left too. Today they had to seperate their ways sadly. Everyone went home alone. 

On his way home Louis decided to go into the city instead. He entered the mall and walked throught the different shops. He hadn't went shopping in forever. For hours he looked through everything and bought a lot of new clothes and snapbacks and beanies. 

Back at home he went up to the attic and searched for his old skateboard. After a long search he finally found it. He dusted it off and went back down, glancing at that one spot up there. He walked back into his room, opened his closet and tossed things around in his room. He stripped out of his clothes and put some of the new stuff on. In front of the mirror he styled his hair into a quiff for the first time and then looked at himself. 

"Well, hello new me" sighed Louis dissatisfied and unhappy and tossed his glasses to the floor.
