"and i already told you that i do keep mine. i won't break a single promise i make to you."

louis scoffed. "no one can keep every promise they make."

"and that's exactly why i only make promises i know i can keep. and i know that i can fix you up, lou."

"harry, please. not today."

"then when? you're just going to keep avoiding it."

louis sighed. "fine then."

"thank you."

louis just shrugged.

"can i..?" he pointed to his sleeves.

louis rolled them up himself, looking away. harry let out a sigh of relief, when he saw no new marks. "you're getting there, lou." he said proudly.

he forced a smile. "yeah." he mumbled. "because of you though."

"really?"

he nodded. "see, whenever i want to, y'know, i end up thinking of you, and i don't want to hurt you, so i stop myself."

harry feels his heart beating rapidly, a grin planting itself on his face.

"i'm really glad i'm actually helping."

"didn't think you could, but i think you're kinda proving me wrong, styles."

"told you i would." he said, quickly hugging him. louis was surprised at first, but then hugged him back just as tightly.

"you're a work of art to me louis, just the way you are. you may think that what you're doing is art, but you don't need to use your skin as a canvas. you're already an artwork, even your scars add a bit of beauty to the masterpiece, but there shouldn't be anymore. promise me yeah?"

louis refused to look at him. he shakily whispered, "but i can't make a promise that i don't know if i can keep."
