Harry's POV:

I slam the door behind me, tears streaming down my face. I lean against a wall, trying to contain my tears, but it doesn't work, and I slide down the wall, the cool, smooth surfae releif on my hot body.

He had seemed like the Lou I had known for what felt like ages, but only for a year or so. But The way he winced when I touched him... I had broke down instantly.

I bury my head in my elbows, trying to quiet down my sobs. I hear the door open, then close gently. I ignore the person that kneels next to me. I want to be alone.

"Harry," Liam says softly.

"Go away," I say with as much venom I can summon. But he doesn't move.

"Haz, Louis's really upset right now. He looked like he was gonna cry when you left. Please, go back," Liam urges me. But I keep myself clenched down. I can't see Louis right now. I just can't.

"Go AWAY," I repeat, my voice catching at the end, but I didn't move.

"Haz," Liam sighs. I raise my head and look at him, fresh tears threatening to spill from my eyes. "I CAN'T go, Li. Why don't you understand?" I ask angrily. I don't even know why. But going back... I can't.

"No! No! LET ME GO!" somebody screams. I gasp. Not again... please, no, Louis...

Somebody bursts in, staggering. I know it's Louis, and I'm scared to death, though I wish I wasn't. What will he do to me? My mouth aches as if a reminder.

Louis collapses infront of me, and in alarm, I uncurl from my position, and bring his head into my lap. His eyes are rolling in his head.

"Lou? Louis? Louis, can you hear me?" I ask, panickingly. Suddenly, he sits and wraps his arms around me. He's still breathing hard, and I have to hold him up so he doesn't fall.

"Haz," Louis says raggedly. "Haz."

I keep my arms around him. What I was feeling before has vanished. "I'm here, Lou. I'm right here."

"I'm sorry," he gasps. "I - I'm sorry."

"Shhh," I comfort him. I don't care what happened before. "You need to rest, Lou. Ok?"

There's a moment where it's just him breathing. "Ok," he says finally. I hug him tightly, and I look at Zayn, a bit bewildered.

Couldn't stop him, he mouthed. I smile breifly.

That's my Louis.

He finally fell asleep, on the mattress, in my arms, surrounded by us. When he does, Niall jumps up.

"I'm going to get some Nando's."

No surprise there.

"You want anything?"

"Chicken wings," Zayn chirped.

"Mozarella sticks." I say.

Nothing for Liam. "Alright, be back soon." Niall waves goodbye as he takes his sweater and leaves.

"So... what do you think it is?" Liam asks. I clench my hands. I don't want to know what it IS. I want to know how to stop it. Yes, I know how irrational that sounds.

"I think it's sleepwalking. That's why he seems so awake, but not like himself."

"That doesn't explain why he gagged me." I say, feeling angry.

"Maybe he was dreaming aswell," Zayn suggests. I hate discussing this. I lean back onto the bed end, and close my eyes.

"Harry? You aren't going to sleep, are you?"

"Don't be silly," I snap. "I'm resting."

I know I'm being harsh.

"Sorry." I mumble. There's silence for a few moments.

"So... got any more ideas?" I say uncomfortably. More silence. "Maybe he's having nightmares."

I don't like the sound of that. "Nightmares... as in?"

"I don't really know. But it sounds like it might be."

We sit in silence for a while longer. "But - "

We all freeze.

Louis is moving.
