Chapter 3

After the first class ended Louis and Harry decided to skip and head to Louis' house since no one was home, Louis' mum was at work and his four sisters were still in school.

They drove to his house each riding in their own car since it was easier for the both of them plus Harry didn't wanted to go back to school to pick up his car.

When he got there Louis was already waiting for him at the front door, he got out of his car and walked towards him taking Louis' hand interwining their fingers which made Harry have a butterfly party inside his stomach, they walked inside still holding hands.

"Wanna watch a movie and cuddle babe?" Louis asked smiling at Harry.

"Sure Lou!" Harry said

"Ok, why don't you look for one and I'll go make us some snacks!" Louis said letting go of Harry's hand and headed towards the kitchen humming some random tune.

Harry was already sitting down on the couch, 21 Jump Street playing on the DVD player when Louis came back with two bowls of popcorn and two sodas. He gave one bowl to Harry and set the other one on the coffee table along with the sodas and sat down wrapping his arms around Harry and Harry placed his head on the crook of his neck.

They fell asleep, the movie long forgotten and the popcorn left untouched as well as the sodas. Harry woke up a few hours later to the sound of a phone vibrating furiously, he looked around trying to identify where it was coming from while rubbing his eyes and yawning.

He finally located his phone on the floor and picked it up, he unlocked it and saw a new message from Liam

From:Liam

'Where are you? School's almost over and I haven't seen you all day!'

Harry smiled and replied

To:Liam

'I'm with Lou, we decided to skip school, don't worry!'

After replying Harry locked his phone and cuddled closer to Louis taking the opportunity to be close to him as much as possible while it lasted. He was already falling asleep again when his phone vibrated. He unlocked it and read the message.

From:Liam

'He's being nice to you right?'

Harry frowned at the message but soon shrugged it off knowing Louis' antics and Liam was just worried about him.

To:Liam

'don't worry mate, he's being nice'

Harry hadn't even put his phone down when it vibrated again

From: Liam

'Ok then, guess I'll see you later. Love you!'

Harry was about to reply when the phone was snatched away from his hands, he looked up to see a really furious looking Louis standing next to him reading the last text from Liam. Harry got up attempting to get his phone but failing miserably when Louis pushed him down and landed on the floor hurting his left elbow.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Harry screamed getting up from the floor.

"NO, WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" Louis shouted and Harry winced, Louis was livid and a livid Louis was no good.

Harry was about to reach for his phone again when he felt Louis' fist collide with his jaw sending him down to the floor again. Harry turned his head to look at Louis who was glaring down at him, he quickly got up and did something he knew he was going to regret, he punched Louis as hard as he could.

"You little shit! You're gonna get it now!" Louis growled

Harry's eyes widened, he took his phone that was now on the floor and took off towards the front door hoping to make it before Louis could grab him, but all hope vanished when he felt a pair of strong arms wrap around his slim waist.

Louis started dragging Harry up the stairs to his room, Harry realized what he was going to do and started squirming and kicking, anything to get out of Louis' grasp and go home.

"LOUIS LET GO! Please, I just wanna go home!" Harry pleaded, tears already forming in his green eyes. They were already halfway through the stairs when the front door opened with a loud bang and the loud laughs and shouts echoed around the house, Louis' mum looked up at them and Louis froze.

"Say something and you're gonna get it worse!" Louis whispered on Harry's ear and Harry nodded terrified of what Louis would do if he said something.

"Hi boys, what are you doing?" Louis' mum, Jay, asked them

"N-nothing mum, Hazza here was about to leave and I was just walking him to his car!" Louis said tightening his hold on Harry.

"Is that true honey?" Jay asked Harry, already knowing what Louis was like

"Y-yeah Mrs. Tomlinson, m- my mum called and said she wanted me home now!" Harry lied trying not to piss off Louis even more.

"Alright honey, well it was nice to see you!" Jay said with a smile and walked to the kitchen.

Once Louis made sure his mum was gone he grabbed Harry by the wrist and pulled him out of his house, once outside Louis opened Harry's car door and shoved him inside then kissed him violently biting his lower lip.

"Expect me at your house tonight babe, I know your mum is on a business trip and Gemma is spending the night with his boyfriend. And you better not see Liam today or I'm gonna beat him! Got it?" Louis said and Harry nodded

Louis shut the door and walked to his house, as soon as Louis was out of sight Harry let out a breath he didn't even knew he was holding, as fast as he could he started his car and drove to his house.

Once he was inside of the safetiness of his house he ran to his room and threw himself on his bed crying, a few minutes later he felt his phone vibrating in his back pocket, he grabbed it and opened the text from Liam

From:Liam

'Hey Haz, are you ok?'

Harry started crying harder asking himself why was he with someone like Louis, at first he thought it was because he really loves him but now he wasn't sure why, Louis was slowly killing that feeling. He decided it was best to reply before Liam had a panic attack.

To: Liam

'yeah I'm fine! I'll see you tomorrow at school Li!'

Liam immediately replied

From: Liam

'Alright Haz :)'

Harry put his phone on his bedside table and reached to touch the spot where Louis had punched him earlier, he gently poked it and winced at the pain, he felt more hot tears streaming down his face. Louis' actions were more painful than the actual bruise and Harry wasn't sure if he could take it any longer. He finally decided to take a shower while he was still alone.

~*~

Harry was sitting on the couch in his living room waiting for Louis, deep in thought weighing his options and trying to decide whether what he was about to do was the right choice or not. He was interrupted by someone ringing the door bell like a maniac, he got up and ran to the front door to answer it. He was greeted by a Louis with bloodshot eyes who immediately threw himself into Harry's arms and began crying, his shoulders shaking violently.

"Lou, what's wrong?" Harry said hugging Louis, guiding him to the couch

"I-I'm sorry babe! I didn't, God I'm so stupid, I'm such an idiot!" Louis wailed hopelessly trying to cuddle closer into Harry's chest.

"No you're not! Why would you say that?" Harry asked already knowing the answer but still waiting to hear it from Louis' lips

"I'm such a screw up Harry!! Look what I did to you because I c-couldn't control my anger!" Louis said pointing to Harry's jaw were a dark bruise was already forming.

"It's nothing!" Harry said.

"Don't tell m-me it's nothing Harry, I don't get it you know! I'm always hurting you in every way I can and you always put up with it. Everytime I hurt you in any form I always hate myself after it but I c-can't stop Haz!"

"I can help you, you know. I can help you change Louis!" Harry said with hope in his voice, he had already changed his mind and he wasn't going to lose his Louis.

"No Haz!! I-I-I can't change. that's why I made a decision. as much as I love you I have to do it!!" Louis sighed wipping off his tears.

"Do what Lou?!" Harry said beginning to panic

"It hurts Haz! I love you so much it hurts and that's why I have to do it because I don't wanna keep hurting you!"

Harry began to cry sensing what was coming but still hoping for it to be something else, he watched as Louis opened and closed his mouth trying to form the words.

"It's best if we break up!" Louis whispered

Harry felt his blood turn cold and his heart breaking making his chest hurt

"W-what?" Harry asked expecting Louis to start laughing and tell him it was a just a joke, a cruel joke but that moment never came

"I can't keep hurting you Harry, its for the best! You deserve someone who treats you right like Liam, not some shitty screw up like me!" Louis explained

"NO! Please Lou, please don't do this! I promise I won't do anything to make you angry but please don't leave me!" Harry sobbed grabbing Louis by the shirt.

It broke Louis' heart seeing Harry like that but it was for the best. What had happened earlier was a reality check for him and he didn't wanted to hurt Harry anymore, he was in love with him and that's why he had to let him go even if it pained him to do so. He pushed Harry away and his heart broke into millions of tiny little pieces.

"I'm sorry Harry, Please find someone who treats you right and forget about me!"

"Please don't leave me!" Harry said grabbing Louis' hand with both of his hands

"LET GO!!" Louis yelled yanking his arm out of Harry's grasp, he took a step back and reached for the door opening it.

He stepped outside and started closing the door but not before taking one last look at Harry regretting it immediately. He closed the door and left Harry's house, leaving Harry sobbing on the floor.
