Hey, writing this to particularly satisfy my depression. Last week I lost one of my pets. She started having neurological problems in the afternoon and passed away by 8pm on the same day. That's kinda why I've been MIA. Hopefully I'll get back to writing! Please always dm me requests if you have them! Even if you don't have anything specific and just want something vague ( like "I want fluff, or I want angst") that works too!
Also... modern AU

Louis rubbed y/ns back as her wet hands covered her eyes. Tears had started to settle in the crevices of her fingers, the little wrinkles like streams. Y/ns sobs had become louder and more frequent. The convulsions between cries also grew in frequency. Louis didn't particularly know what to say to make her feel better so he just sat there and used his touch.
Y/ns hands removed from her face and she looked at Louis. Her eyes had black tracks of sorrow running from them and her nose was surely running. Louis blotted a tissue on her face and she hummed an agreement to his action. Louis looked at her and waited for her to do something. She didn't move.
"Do you want a hug?" Louis asked, not daring to speak above a whisper. She just nodded and leaned into him. They both laid back on the couch and y/n cried into his chest as he held her.
"It'll all be alright." He cooed as he tried to stroke her delicately.
Her sobs had now turned to a silent cry with some convulsing breaths. Louis shirt had a soaked spot on his shirt where the tears had pooled. She started to slow even more and her crying seemed to stop.
Y/n looked up at him with her red eyes and he looked down at her. He had to crane his neck, giving himself a double chin and he moved her hair out of her face gently with his fingertips. He pushed the rebellious strands behind her ear and smiled at her.
"Are you tired?" He asked softly, still trying not to disturb her mourning period.
She just nodded and wiped her nose with her sleeve which was crumpled up in her hand.
"Okay, maybe we should head to our room."
Louis grabbed her and brought her up to their shared room.
"Let's go to sleep."
"I can't." She stuttered out.
"Then just lay with me." He still called just as soft.
Louis felt the weight on his chest gain as y/n laid on him. He rubbed her side as she started to slow her breathing.
"Wanna talk about it or no?" Louis didn't know what to say in this situation so he just tried his best.
"No. Not really."
"Okay. I just want you to know that they are so much better now. They are in a good place."
"I know. It just hurts. How am I supposed to live without them? They were my baby."
"I know. But time will pass, all wounds will subside in pain."
Louis felt as y/ns fingers shakily ran along his chest. Louis took his free hand and grabbed her hand that ran along his chest and kissed her fingertips.
"I love you so much."
"I love you too." She shakily replied.
