This was requested by ClaireLovesYa I hope it's alright :)

I'm literally streaming walls while writing this so I'm probably going to cry when two of us comes on...

Louis' P.O.V

"Are you sure about this, Ni?" I asked for like the billionth time.

"Yes, Lou. He pranked me yesterday and I'm getting him back." Niall huffed as he dragged me towards the kitchen of Liam's apartment.

"But why do I have to help you? Harry will probably flip off at me and make me sleep on the couch." I pouted as Niall walked over to the sink and started filing up a jug of water.

"Well then Tommo, better grab a spare blanket." He laughed without looking back at me. "Where did Liam go? He was here a minute ago." Niall asked as he turned off the tap and turned to face me.

I shrugged and looked around. "He probably went to his room with Zayn, he got here a few minutes ago."

Niall hummed as my phone went off. "Is it Harry?!" Niall yelled, panic written all over his face. I looked down at my phone and nodded when I saw a text from Harry appear on my screen.

Harry: Hey Lou, I'm almost at Liam's. There better be food, I'm starving.

I smiled dopily at my phone before typing a response.

Louis: Okay, and yes Liam ordered some food a few minutes ago, dont worry, love.

I shut my phone off and turned to see Niall staring at me with wide eyes. "What?"

"IS HE ALMOST HERE?!" Niall yelled as he ran closer to me, still holding a jug of water.

"Yeah.." I mumbled as Niall smacked me on the head with this free hand before pouring the water onto the floor. "What are you doing?" I asked as he stepped around the puddle of water.

"I probably should have told you the prank first." Niall said as he looked around. "Well anyway as Harry thought it was funny to drench me with water after making me think someone was hurt, I'm going to get him back and you're the bait."

I groaned and ran a hand over my face. "Why am I the bait?"

"Because he'll run faster if he knows you're hurt." Niall shrugged.

"But I'm not hurt."

Niall looked around before grabbing a book and chucking it at my head. "Now you are."

"Ow, Niall what the fuck!" I winced and rubbed my head where the book collided with my face.

"Right, so you can stand there and just yell or something when he comes in the door, I will shout that you're hurt, he'll run, slip, and get soaked in water." Niall crossed his arms over his chest and smiled at me.

I wasn't so sure this was a good idea.

"Are sure, Ni. I mean he could get hurt." I mumbled as Niall groaned.

"C'mon, Lou. think of the times in this past week Harry has pranked you." He said with a stern face, he was right though, Harry had been going on some sort of pranking streak with all the boys.

"Okay fine, but if anything bad happens, I'll rip off your left testicle." I deadpanned as Niall gulped.

"Okay, cool, cool, cool. I like Robert better anyway."

"You named your testicles?" I said trying to hold back a laugh as Niall nodded.

"Yup. Right, Robert. Left, Leo." He smiled as I shook my head chuckling. "Just wait here, I will go tell Liam and Zayn not to panic if they here us yelling." He skipped off to Liam's bedroom, leaving me stood in the kitchen debating whether or not to just run out the apartment and pretend I had nothing to do with this.

Harry might murder me. No he wont. Or will he? No. Well... Shit I'm going to be a dead man.
He's going to butter me like a chicken then stab me and serve me to pigs.

Hang on, Louis. What are you on about? Your boyfriend isn't a serial killer, he's sweet, innocent- well not that, but he's sweet and funny, or maybe that's all a façade so he could butter me up and then stab me.

What the hell is wrong with me? I think I'm going insane.

Niall walked back in the room still smiling so I assumed that meant he didn't walk in on anything he shouldn't have. "Okay, he will be here soon so stand back and sound hurt." He shrugged stepping over the puddle and standing next to the door.

I did what he said and we waited until we heard the click of the front door before Niall nodded at me. "Ow shit!" I yelled.

"Lou?" He called into the apartment.

"Harry! Louis fell, he's hurt, its really bad I don't know what to do!?" Niall yelled from where he was stood next to me.

I heard Harry mumble something before slow footsteps were coming closer.

Well that's nice to know, my boyfriend wouldn't run if I was hurt. Now I know who not to call when I get high with Zayn and do something stupid.

Niall realized Harry wouldn't fall in the water if he was walking so he frowned before smiling wide and walking closer to the door. I saw my boyfriends lanky figure appear in the doorway just as Niall yelled making me jump. "BOO!" He jumped out from behind the door making Harry jump and lose his footing, he stepped back and into the water before slipping and landing on the ground with a loud thud.

My eyes widened as Niall let out a loud laugh. I would have been laughing too if I didn't see the way Harry landed on his right knee awkwardly, Niall soon stopped laughing when he realized that Harry hadn't gotten up or started laughing.

I ran over to him from where I was stood and knelt down beside him, his face was scrunched up in pain and he was holding his right knee in his hands. "Haz, are you okay?" I rushed out as I moved the hair out of his face.

Niall was stood in shock behind me, eyes wide and hands covering his mouth. "L-Lou." Niall whispered stepping closer. "Look at his knee."

I gently moved Harry's hands away from his knee and saw that his kneecap was definitely not where it was supposed to be. I tried to stay calm as I gestured to Liam's door, telling Niall to go get them. He nodded and ran towards the room while I looked back at Harry's face. "Love, I'm gonna need to take you to hospital alright. I think you've dislocated your knee and they're going to have to pop it back into place, okay?" I said softly as I ran my hand through his hair.

His eyes quickly opened and he shook his head trying to sit up, making his leg move and he groaned in pain. "Hey, calm down. Babe, stop you're going to hurt yourself even more. Calm down. You're okay, I've got you." He wrapped his arms around my waist and leant his head on my shoulder, he was shaking and I could hear him sniffling as I continued to say reassuring things to him.

"It's gonna hurt." He mumbled, tightening his hold on me.

"But then it will feel better, okay? And I will be there with you." I whispered placing a kiss to his curls as Zayn and Liam ran into the room with worried faces.

"What happened?" Liam asked as he looked between me and Niall as Zayn knelt on the other side of Harry, looking at his knee.

"It was just meant to be a prank, Li, I swear. I didn't think he would get hurt." Niall whispered, voice trembling. Liam sighed, clearly disappointed but he put an arm around Niall anyway.

"Zee, can you help me get him to the hospital?" I asked, and he nodded quickly. "Haz, me and Zayn are going to take you to hospital, this might hurt." I said as I picked him up carefully, trying to avoid his right knee as much as possible, he whimpered and tucked his head into my neck.

Zayn quickly stood up and grabbed my car keys before opening the front door and making sure that I don't accidently hit Harry's leg on anything. Niall and Liam stayed in the apartment while Zayn and I reached the car as quickly as possible. We got to the car and we put him on the back seats carefully, Zayn got into the front seat and started the car as I stayed in the back with Harry.

"I'm really sorry, Hazza." I whispered as I wrapped my arm around his shoulders.

"It's not your fault, you didn't mean for anyone to get hurt." He mumbled, eyes closed as Zayn was careful to avoid pot holes and speed bumps.

"Yeah, but I should have stopped him. I shouldn't have gone through with the stupid prank, then you wouldn't be hurt right now." I mumbled, feeling angry at myself that I let this happen.

"Lou, if I say that I'm not mad at you then stop beating yourself up about it. No one could know that I would have gotten hurt, it's just bad luck. And maybe my lanky giraffe legs." He joked, I smiled and kissed his forehead. I was still mad at myself but I just wouldn't let Harry know that.

He whimpered a little when Zayn had to go over a speed bump as we pulled into the hospital parking lot, he said a quick sorry to Harry as he stopped outside the doors. "Get him inside, I'll park the car and meet you in there as quick as I can." Zayn said as he got out and helped me pick up Harry before he got back into the car and drove off to find a parking space.

I walked through the hospital doors and immediately a nurse saw me and got a wheelchair, I thanked her and gently sat Harry down in the chair. She asked what happened and I told her as she signed us in and lead us over to the waiting room. "Okay sir, wait here and you will be called when a doctor can see you."

I nodded, not wanting to say anything as I would probably start shouting about how she's already seen us, so why cant a doctor. I leant back in the chair I was sat in as I looked over at Harry who looked like he was in a little less pain now he wasn't moving. "I'm sorry." I mumbled again as I grabbed his hand and kissed the back of it gently.

"Louis. Stop saying sorry." He said as gave me a half smile. I just sighed and kept his hand in mine.

Zayn came over to us after a few minutes and sat down next to me. "Why is it always so bloody hard to park at a hospital." He mumbled as he let out a deep breath. "How's he doing." He motioned to a half asleep Harry sat next to me.

I looked over and sighed at the fact that even though he was practically asleep, I could still see the pain on his face. "He's in pain." I mumbled, rubbing my thumb over the back of his hand.

"Y'know it's not your fault right?" Zayn said as he looked at me with a stern face.

"Of course it fucking is, Zee! We wouldn't be here if I hadn't gone thought with Niall's stupid plan." I whisper-shouted, trying not to wake up Harry.

"I know that even if you refused to do the prank, Niall still would have gone through with it and he would have still gotten hurt." Zayn said, eyes not leaving mine.

"I just can't help but feel guilty."

"And that feeling will go away when Harry's okay, especially as he isn't holding a grudge. So stop holding a grudge against yourself, you twat." He laughed a little, making me smile a little and nod.

We had been waiting in the hospital waiting room for 2 hours, Zayn had gotten Harry some food just over half an hour ago and even know we were all done eating, no doctor had come out to see Harry.

He'd been given pain killers but they weren't doing much, I mean his fucking kneecap was sticking out.

I had began walking up and down the rows at least ten minutes ago and I was about to turn around to walk back down the row when Zayn grabbed my shoulder and yanked me back. "Stop pacing." He whispered, keeping an eye on Harry.

It wasn't like he was going to run anywhere.

I just huffed and looked around at the doctors passing us. "Why has no one fucking come to see him yet, we've been here for almost three hours." I mumbled.

"Because they're busy Louis, but they will get to him soon." Zayn shot back. "So stop fucking pacing and go sit your ass back down with your boyfriend who doesn't need to watch you pacing up and down." He said sternly before pushing me in the direction of Harry.

I sighed but knew he was right. I sat back down in my chair next to Harry who had been awake for a while now. "How you doing, love?" I whispered, entwining our hands as Zayn smiled and sat down next to me.

"It hurts." He mumbled, closing his eyes and leaning his head on my shoulder.

"I know baby, I'm sorry." I kissed his temple and gently ran my hand through his hair as he relaxed under my touch.

"Stop saying sorry."

"Sorry"

"Louis."

"Oh, I didn't even realize, sor-" Zayn slapped his hand over my mouth before I said it again, but he quickly pulled away when I licked his hand.

"Gross, Lou." He muttered, wiping his hand on my shoulder.

I smiled and leaned back in my chair and Harry kept his head on my shoulder while Zayn was texting Niall and Liam.

It was fairly quiet for a few minutes before Harry whispered something to me. "I'm scared Lou." His voice was shaky, and I moved making him move his head so I could look him in the eye. "It's going to hurt, isn't it?"

"Yeah, sweetheart. It's going to hurt I'm afraid, but they are going to give you lots of painkillers and Zayn and I will be there the whole time." I said in a soothing voice as I tucked a strand of hair behind his ear.

"promise?" He whispered, his eyes were full of worry.

"I promise. I'm not going to leave your side, love." I smiled reassuringly at him as he nodded and leant his head back on my shoulder letting out a sigh.

~

It had been half an hour and I was about to fall asleep when I heard Harry's name get called into the waiting room. I jumped up, confused to where I was before Zayn elbowed me and I quickly realized and walked behind Harry. The doctor started walking as I pushed the wheelchair behind him as he lead us down the white corridor that smelt strongly of sanitizer and rubber gloves.

He walked inside one of the rooms and pointed to the chairs in the corner of the room. Zayn and I sat down as the doctor typed something on his computer before turning around to face us with a big smile. "Hello lads, I'm doctor Norton, how can I help you?"

I was so close to swearing at him, is he dumb? My boyfriend's knee is purple swollen and the kneecap is not where its supposed to be, I'm no doctor but I can see that. It's not like Harry had jeans on either, he was wearing shorts so you could easily see the massive bruise and swelling.

Luckily Zayn spoke up instead of me. "We think Harry has dislocated his knee and we wanted it popped back into place properly." He spoke as the doctor nodded and moved his chair closer to Harry who was looking at me nervously. He held his hand out for me to take which I happily did as the doctor put some new gloves on.

"Alright Harry, I'm just going to have a quick look and it might be a bit painful." He smiled and moved his hands to Harry's knee. He gently pressed around the bruised area making Harry squeeze my hand tighter, and it made my urge to shout at this doctor grow but I didn't because I know he's just doing his job. I just hate seeing Harry in pain.

"Okay, you've definitely dislocated your patella." Doctor Norton said as he moved back over to his computer and I resisted the urge to say 'No shit his kneecap is practically out of his leg.'

"I'm going to pop it back into place in a few minutes, I just want to get some medication to take some of the pain away. I'll be back in a few minutes." He smiled and walked out the room shutting the door behind him.

"I could have told him that it's dislocated." I mumbled, still not letting go of Harry's hand.

"Louis, you're impossible. You complain when no doctor sees him, yet you still complain when the doctor is seeing him." Zayn shook his head trying not to laugh.

"Well I don't like him." I huffed before looking over at Harry who looked slightly pale. I immediately forgot about the doctor when I saw how scared he looked. "Hey, love?" I whispered and he hesitantly turned to look at me. "You're okay, we're right here. Zayn can hold your hand too if you want when he puts it back into place?"

Harry nodded and Zayn stood up and walked so he was stood on Harry's other side, he just leant against the wall waiting for the doctor to be ready.

The doctor walked back in a few minutes later with an ice pack and some other things in his hands, he hands the ice pack to Zayn and told him to gently rest it on Harry's knee so it can numb it a little bit more, then he gives Harry the pain reliever.

He talks to Harry about what he's going to do to pop it back in while the ice continues to numb his knee. Doctor Norton then turned around to type something on the computer leaving the medication and ice to take affect.

After a few more minutes the doctor stands up and speaks again. "Okay I want to do this soon if not now as I want to make sure that it hasn't damaged any ligaments or anything like that. So Harry, are you ready?"

Harry looked up at Zayn and I anxiously and we both gave him warm smiles and Zayn sat down on the chair next to Harry before taking his hand in his own. "Okay." Harry whispered quietly.

Doctor Norton nodded and knelt down on the floor in front of Harry as he moved his leg gently out in front of him as Harry squeezed mine and Zayn's hands tighter. He then very slowly bent his leg making Harry bite his lip and screw his face up in pain, I soothingly ran my hand down his back as Zayn held his shoulder as he was starting to move and he needed to stay still.

His leg was straightened out once more but it still hadn't popped back into place, and Harry had tears in his eyes now. "Okay, Harry I'm going to try once more and I need you to relax your leg as much as you can. If it doesn't go in this time I'm going to need to fully sedate you so I can get it back in without causing you more pain." Doctor Norton said as Harry looked down.

I noticed that he still looked incredibly nervous, especially after hearing that, so I squeezed his hand making him look up at me and I gave him a reassuring smile as he half smiled back. He was still in a lot of pain as well, you could see it all over his face.

"Alright, Harry, Just relax your leg as much as you can for me, allow all your weight to rest on my arm." He said and Harry nodded just before the doctor was moving his leg in such a way, trying to get the kneecap to go back to its rightful place.

Harry whimpered as he tightened the hold on my hand again, he screwed his eyes shut just as doctor Norton straightened his leg out and Harry immediately let out a deep breath and let his head fall back against the wall. I looked at his knee and luckily there was no longer a bone sticking out the side, it was still bruised and slightly swollen but I could tell the worst of the pain was gone. I wouldn't have needed to see his leg to know that, you could see on his face that it was back in place.

Harry let go of Zayn's hand but kept hold of mine and Zayn ruffled his hair a bit before pulling out his phone, probably to text Niall and Liam. I leaned down and kissed the top of his head as the doctor gently rested his leg back down and stood up.

"Well done Harry, I'm just going to grab a brace for you that you will need to wear to make sure that the kneecap is stable and to prevent it form moving again. You will have to wear it for at least 4 weeks, but we advise that you keep it on for 6 weeks just to ensure that it's healed properly." Doctor Norton said as he took his gloves off and walked out the room once again.

"Well done, baby, It's over now." I whispered, kissing his head once more as he smiled and turned his head into my chest.

"I thought you were going to break my hand for a minute there, H." Zayn chuckled and Harry gave him the death stare. "Sorry" He laughed stepping back with his hands up in defense as the doctor walked back into the room.

He helped show Harry how to fit the brace onto his knee and then told him that he could book physiotherapy if he needed it, then he handed me some more medication to give Harry once we got home. I put the medication in my pocket before Zayn and I helped Harry stand up, he said that it hurt a bit but not too much, probably because of the amount of pain relievers he's had in the last 3 hours, but with help from Zayn he was able to walk quite easily.

We thanked doctor Norton before helping Harry out of the hospital, I waited with Harry out the front while Zayn brought the car to us so Harry wouldn't have to walk that far. We all got into the car and Zayn started driving back to Liam's apartment, I was just going to tell him to take us home but Zayn was driving my car and I left my stuff at Liam's.

Harry was leaning on me as he drifted off to sleep, I had a hand on his thigh in a comforting manner as he curled his body into mine as much as he could while wearing a seatbelt.

~

After 30 minutes Zayn was parking the car and handing me the keys as we got out, I said Harry could stay in the car but he said no and got out with us. "Thanks for helping me, Zee." I said as we helped Harry up the stairs.

"No problem." He smiled back as we reached Liam's door and walked straight inside without knocking.

"Oh my god, Harry I'm so sorry, I didn't meant to hurt you, I feel so bad, please don't hate me!" Niall exclaimed the minute we walked into the apartment. Harry just chuckled and hugged Niall, I stood behind with a hand on his hip making sure he wasn't going to fall.

"It's alright, Ni." Harry smiled once he pulled away "It probably would have been a good prank if I didn't dislocate my knee." He laughed trying to make Niall feel better.

"I still feel bad, I'm really sorry Harry, I am." Niall frowned as he looked down at his hands.

"Niall, it's okay. I don't hate you, and don't feel bad, accidents happen." He smiled reassuringly at him as Niall nodded and hugged him once more.

Then Liam walked over and gave him a hug. "You alright now mate?" He asked and Harry nodded. "How was it?" He asked Zayn, probably referring to the hospital trip itself.

"Lou nearly argued with a nurse and a doctor. Oh and some lady who was apparently 'looking at us weirdly'" They laughed and I punched Zayn's arm making him shut up.

"She was." I protested, arms crossed over my chest.

"Sure, Lou." Liam laughed walking away, I was confused before he returned holding my stuff I left earlier. "I'm assuming you two are going to go?" He asked as he handed me my bag.

"Yeah, I'm knackered  and so is crippled over here." I nodded towards Harry who was leaning against the doorframe.

"Alright, we'll stop round yours tomorrow afternoon. Hope your knee feels better, Haz." Liam smiled at him as Niall and Zayn said goodbye before Harry and I were walking back down to my car.

"Is your knee still numb?" I asked Harry once we got in the car.

"A little, it hurts a bit more now though." He mumbled as he put his seatbelt on before I started the car.

"Alright, love. I'll give you some more pain relievers when we get home." I told him as I pulled out of Liam's apartment building. Harry nodded and closed his eyes as he rested his head against the cool window.

I kept looking over at him the whole drive home, just making sure he wasn't in too much pain. Luckily I dont think all the medication had worn off yet.

We arrived home after around 15 minutes and I walked round to Harry's side as he was fast asleep and didn't know we were home. I opened the door, careful of his head, and gently picked him up before carrying him towards our front door. I managed to open the door with one hand and I walked inside without bothering to close the door behind me.

I set Harry down on the couch slowly before kissing his forehead and walking back outside to grab my bag and lock the car. Once I had everything inside I closed the front door and got the pain killers out of my pocket, I grabbed a bottle of water and walked back into the living room where Harry was beginning to wake up.

"Here you go, darling." I said as I sat down and he opened his eyes and sat up. He took the pills from my hand and put them in his mouth before taking a big gulp of water. He mumbled a quiet 'thanks' before shuffling closer to me.

He wrapped his arms around my waist and laid his head on my chest as I put my arm around him, brining him impossibly closer. "Can we watch friends?" He asked as I turned on the tv, I nodded and kissed his forehead before scrolling through Netflix and continuing from where we left off in season 6.

"I love you, Lou." He whispered against my chest, eyelids fluttering closed.

I smiled and moved a piece of hair out of his face. "I love you too."

He hummed happily before letting his eyes close as he listened to the sounds of the tv and cuddled closer to me. I still felt bad but I never meant to hurt him and Harry already assured me that I don't need to be sorry. But now I'm going to make sure nothing hurts my very fragile boyfriend again, he's too precious to be hurt.

~~~~~~~~

I hope that was alright, but now I feel bad bc I kept laughing while writing it.... I'm a terrible person.

Anyway remember to eat something even if its small and have a drink :)
