TW: SELF-HARM AND SUICIDAL THOUGHTS

~~

Harry woke up in a bed, he forgot where he was for a few moments. He woke up in a cold sweat, he got the familiar itching, burning feeling in his arms. He didn't want to do it, but his body got up and walked to the kitchen. It was all kind of a blur, he was sitting on the floor in the dark kitchen with a knife in his hand and a bloody forearm, and a glass on the floor shattered.

Louis woke up when the glass shattered, he got up and walked toward the sound. He turned the light on and saw Harry on the floor with blood dripping from his arm, and a knife in his other hand. Harry looked up at him "Please, help" he whimpered, he held out his shaking hand with the knife wanting Louis to take it away from him. Louis walked to Harry and got down on his knees and took the knife away "Come here darling" he said as he held his arms out for the boy.

Harry let out a loud sob, not making any movements so Louis moved next to him and pulled him over on his lap. Harry sobbed louder "I don't want to hurt myself anymore" Louis kissed his forehead "I know... I'm going to help you alright?" Harry nodded slightly, "Please don't give up on me, you're the only person I have" Louis let a tear fall down his cheek "I will never give up on you, I promise" 

Louis held Harry as he cried, he sat there for hours, listening to Harry cry. Once Harry was calm enough Louis cleaned up his arm and wrapped it up. Louis picked Harry up bridal style and carried him back to the bed, laying him down "Please stay, I don't want to be alone" Louis slides under the blanket "I'm here and I'm not going anywhere love".

Harry was curled up on his side and he moved closer to Louis, "Harry" he whispered, making the green-eyed boy look up. Louis connects their lips "It's going to get better, I promise" Harry presses his face into Louis' chest, not saying anything back. Louis held him tight and kissed his forehead.

It's been a month and Louis was working late, again, Harry wanted to cuddle with Louis. He was having those thoughts and they were getting louder. It was late and Harry was at the bridge, sitting on the ledge. He didn't know what time it was, but it was pitch black out and there were no cars in sight.

After a few minutes, a car starts driving across the bridge. It was Louis he was doing his nightly midnight drive and he saw a shadow sitting on the ledge in the middle of the bridge. As he got closer he recognized it was Harry, he immediately stopped the car and got out.

"Harry, get off the ledge love," he said walking closer, he heard quiet sobs "No, I c-can't" Louis took a step closer, "Baby-" Harry cut him "Why should I? Why should I get down?" Louis let out a breath "Because... I love you and I don't want to lose you" he said it, the words he's wanted to tell Harry for a whole month. Harry turned his head and saw Louis walking closer and grabbing Harry's waist pulling him off the ledge. 

The blue-eyed boy wraps Harry in a hug and Harry buries his head in the crook of Louis' neck "I love you, Harry" Harry let out a sob, "I love you" Louis tells him again. Harry squeezes him tighter, he hasn't heard those three words in a long time, and he hopes that Louis will never stop saying them. Louis makes Harry look at him "I love you so, so fucking much. Don't ever and I mean ever forget that" Louis tells him as he looks into his eyes as tears fell down their cheeks, Louis wipes Harry's tears with the pad of his thumb. 

Louis brings Harry to his car and sits him in the passenger seat, once he sits in the driver's seat he starts the car. As he drives Louis grabs the younger's hand and intertwines their fingers, "Louis... I love you too" he whispered, he looked down at their intertwined fingers and smiled. Louis brought Harry's hand up and kissed the back of his hand "I love you more" Harry shook his head "I love you a lot more than you could ever know, you saved my fucking life... so, so many times. Every time you would give me a hug, a kiss on the cheek, a peck on the lips when you play with my hair, you give me reassurance that someone cares about me, even if you don't know it... you've saved me countless times" 

Louis kissed the back of his hand, "Baby, you are the kindest, loving, sweet, adorable, beautiful person I've ever met and you deserve all the love in this world. I love you, Harry, you are an amazing and beautiful person, I'm so lucky to have met you" Harry smiled, "God what did I do to deserve you" Louis gently squeezed his hand "You listened to me"

After a few more minutes of driving they arrive home, Louis opens Harry's door and helps him out of the car. They walk in and Louis has sit on the couch, "I have something for you, wait here darling" Harry blushed at the nickname and sits on the couch. About a minute later Louis comes back with a small bag in his hand, "I hope you like it" he says as he hands Harry the bag and sits down next to him.

Harry smiles as he takes out the wrapping paper, he finds a small box at the bottom of the bag. He takes out the box and opens it "Oh my god, it's perfect I love it Lou" it was a small gold locket with a picture of him and Louis on one side, and on the other, it said I love you. Louis smiles "Lou?" Harry blushed and looked away "Sorry it just kind of slipped out" Louis grabs his hand "It's okay, I like it" Harry giggles softly "Have I ever told you, you have the cutest giggle ever" Harry giggles again "Yes, all the time Lou"

"It's because it's true" Harry giggles, Louis takes the necklace and takes it out of the box. He pulls Harry toward him and turns him around to where his back was facing him, he put the locket on the green-eyed boy. After the locket was on Harry turned around and hugged Louis tightly "Thank you for everything, I know I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you" Louis kissed his lips "I love you, now and forever" Harry smiles "I love you too"
