Harry.

I ran as fast as I could. I ran past the few teachers that shouted for me to slow down. I ran past the school parking lot. I ran through the serial neighborhood I could hardly recognize. I ran to the front gate of the place I'd called home the night before. I ran along the bare trail to the hay field. I ran until my lungs and legs couldn't handle any more of it. I plopped myself onto the soft patch of grass and hay that Louis and I had slept on. I honestly felt so broken and all I could do was wait. Wait for everyone to notice I'm gone, wait and cry. I knew I wouldn't have to wait too long before Louis notices, he'll come find me. I won't even need Niall to be there for me, I have Louis and he's going to be with me forever.

I pulled out my phone and stared down at the text messages between Niall and I. It only made me tears flow faster. I then stared at his contact and looked at the picture he'd been under. It was one we'd taken at the beach when Zayn took us last summer. I smiled at it but soon remembered all the cruel things he'd said. He knew how bad my mother's death can hurt me whenever mentioned. It pained me to remember that he'd mentioned my year of depression and suicidal thoughts. That was private, something only he knew about and he went shouting it at school. Fed up, I deleted his contact. Although, it was no use. His phone number was memorized in my head. It made me realize that no matter what, the memories we had will always be there.

Louis.

I hadn't been able to pick Harry up from any of his classes since the hallways were absolutely hectic and I couldn't seem to find him anywhere. Soon enough I decided I'd just wait until lunch to meet up with him. I also hadn't seen Liam. He told me that Niall would be walking him to classes, it was only safe to assume that Harry was with them since he hadn't texted me once all morning.

At lunch I waited at the table we'd sat at the day before only to see that it was empty. I was confused as to why Harry wasn't there waiting but I soon found Niall and Liam sitting a few tables down. I approached them, Niall must know where Harry might be.

"Niall, have you seen Haz?" I asked placing a hand on my brother's shoulder. "Hey, Li. You having a good meal?" Liam nodded.

"Get the fuck out of my face." Niall growled. Anger built up inside of me almost instantly. Calm down, Louis. I tried telling myself.

"Look buddy, I'm just looking for my boyfriend." I chuckled awkwardly, trying my best not to lose my temper.

"Don't call me your buddy, fuckface." Niall glared at me. I found myself picking him up from his seat and throwing him to the floor. Niall groaned causing Liam to whimper.

"Louis have you taken your meds?" Liam asked frantically.

"Not now, Liam!" I yelled before jumping on top of Niall.

"Get the fuck off of me, asshole!" Niall shouted in my face only causing me to punch him.

"What the fuck did you call me?"

"You're a fucking piece of shit, you deserve that dumb little prick you call your boyfriend." Niall literally spat then began throwing punches at me, he managed to hit me in the nose. He managed to throw enough pressure into it to cause my nose to start bleeding. I got off of him but as he was begging to stand up, I kicked him to the floor.

"What did you fucking say about my boyfriend?" I screamed, kicking him relentlessly. I watched as blood began dripping from his nose and mouth. A few students had crowded around us and they all watched as Niall cried in pain. I continued kicking him before noticing Liam standing up and using his stick to locate Niall's body.

"What are you doing, Li? Get out of the way before you get hurt!" I shouted at my younger brother.

"Stand up you piece of shit! Fight like a man, you're such a fucking kid."

"I-I happen to be older than your virgin boyf-friend." Niall groaned in pain. I managed to kick him once more before Liam threw himself in front of the turd.

"Move, Liam!"

"Stop hurting him! You're not yourself, you haven't taken your medicine, Lou. Please calm down." Liam begged me.

"I just want my boyfriend, Li." I sobbed, tears suddenly falling from my eyes.

"I know, it's ok. You'll find him just stop hurting Niall."

"Okay, okay." I nodded. "I'm going to go look for Harry, stay here with Niall and phone an ambulance or a nurse. Just do whatever."

I tried calling Harry but he wouldn't pick up, he must've turned his phone off. I even tried going to his house, neither him nor his parents were home. I tried the bus stop, he wasn't there either. There was only one place left that I could think of.

As I found myself walking along the pathway leading to Harry and I's 'home' I saw a small body curled up in the middle of the field. I grinned before running up to him. He was sleeping peacefully with his phone in one hand and a bag of gummy bears in another. I couldn't help but laugh at how utterly adorable he looked. I eased myself onto the ground and snuggled myself against his sleepign body before closing my eyes.

I hadn't realized I had fallen asleep until Harry shook me awake. I smiled up at him but soon frowned at the sight the bags under his eyes and his tearstained face.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Why is your nose bleeding?" Harry asked me.

"It's a long story we both said simultaneously.

"We've got time. What time is it?" I questioned, checking my phone to see the it was five-thirty. School ends at four, not only that but I had thirteen missed calls from Liam.

"How could I have been so stupid?" I shouted, standing to my feet and grabbing Harry's hand.

"What is it?" He asked but I didn't answer I only began running back to school, dragging him along with me.

Halfway to the school, Harry stopped us. "What's going on?"

"I forgot Liam." I said before pulling us along. I hoped with all my heart that Liam would be waiting for me on the bleachers at the football field. Tuesdays lacrosse practice didn't start until six so I'm sure he knew to wait for me there. Sure enough, once I'd arrived at the football field I found Liam sitting on the bleachers with one of my teammates.

"Liam!" I called with a huge smile as I ran over to them, Harry right behind me.

"I took the liberty of escorting Liam here after the little blonde fellow was sent to the nurse." Greg notified me once I was done hugging and apologizing to my baby brother.

"Little blonde fellow? Why was Niall sent to the nurse?" Harry asked.

"You must be Harry, I'm Greg Steinbeck." Greg smiled, holding out a hand for Haz to shake.

"Nice to meet you, what happened to Niall?" Harry asked once again, Greg glanced but stayed silent.

"Lou?" Harry looked up at me with the most innocent look I'd ever seen, at that moment I lost all sense of assertiveness.

"He got into a fight." I said half-truthfully.

"What? With who? Is he arlight? Is he hurt?"

"For God's sake, Louis is the one who beat him up." Liam groaned causing me to stare at my feet in shame.

"Is that true?" I could feel Harry's gaze on me but I was scared to see the look of disappointment in his eyes.

"Let's give them some space, eh Liam?" Greg then led him and my brother to the field. Once they were out of sight, I looked down at Harry.

"Baby, listen."

"How could you?" He cried but I could see the anger is his eyes.

"You should have heard the things he was saying about you, baby I was defen-"

"Don't call me that!" Harry shouted before shoving me to the floor and running away from me. I chased after him but halfway accross the field he stopped in his tracks and turned towards me.

"Don't step any closer! You come anywhere near me and I swear to God I'll never speak to you ever again! I just need some time." He then proceeded running away. I nodded, tears streaming down my face as I felt my heart break. The thought of losing my Harry killed me.

I really fucked up this time.

I actually loved writing this chapter the first time, that is until half of it was erased due to a wattpad glitch. I rewrote to my best knowledge though. Anywho, I'm so happy that everything is finally starting to fall in to place and develop the plot a bit more. Just an FYI, this story is nowhere near over. I have much more planned. -weirdo x
