And My Heart Is A Hollow Plain (Larry Stylinson Mpreg)

"I'm sure it was all talk, Lou, he wouldn't dare kill you." Liam said from where he was sitting next to Louis, running his fingers through Louis' damp hair.

"You know him Liam, and you know his last three wives mysteriously disappeared when they couldn't give him children and now I'm next." Louis said, then took a deep breath wincing when his lower back started hurting again, "He is so stupid to realize that the problem is him, I am sure that if I had married him instead of Howard then I would already have many children. More than I would have been able to handle, the both of us."

"I'm sorry." Liam looked down at his lap, "I tried to warn him but–"

"Doesn't matter anymore Li, he is gone and now my main concern is getting pregnant and staying alive." Louis interrupted him.

"But how are you going to get pregnant if he can't have children, unless..." Liam trailed off not wanting to think about it, getting startled when Louis sat up almost hitting him on the chin with his head.

"If he can't get me pregnant then someone else will." Louis looked around, then slowly turned his head to the side to look at his best friend, his brother, knowing that it was crazy and incestuous but he had no other option, "You. You have to help me Liam, you have to get me pregnant. Please."

"What? Oh no, no, no, no, are you out of your mind Louis!? You're like my brother, no, forget it." Liam quickly got up, leaving Louis alone in his bed.

"We promised we were always going to protect each other." Louis whimpered on the verge of tears, "You can't let him kill me just because I can't give him a baby when it's his fault I can't get pregnant." Louis let a few tears fall, hoping to convince him.

"Louis don't do that." Liam rubbed his hands on his face.

"Please Liam, he'll never find out and-" Louis started.

"I can't do that, you're my best friend, my brother and it's wrong. I promised to always protect you but I can't do that." Liam gave him an apologetic look.

"Liam please, do this for me, just this once. All you have to do is lay there, close your eyes and let me do all the work." Louis pleaded, trying to get up but was stopped by Liam when he hurried over to his side.

Louis looked up seeing him furrowing his brow and chewing on his bottom lip knowing that he was thinking about it, he hoped for him to agree or he was dead. After what felt like forever Louis slowly wrapped his arms around Liam's waist snuggling up to him and that's when Liam let out a loud sigh.

"Just this once, just...I'm gonna help you, but just this time. If- If you...oh god, if you don't get pregnant this time, then I'm not going to do it again. Louis, this is close to incest!" Liam finally agreed, then slowly wrapped his arms around Louis. He Kissed the top of his head and rubbed his back. He would do anything for Louis, even die.

"Thank you, you're saving my life." Louis hugged him tighter, then sat up blushing when he had to make eye contact with Liam, "We can- We could do it right now, he's not home and-"

"No! Not right now, you are still in pain and you need to get better. He will be back at any moment now and he is going to get angry if he finds me here. We'll wait at least a week, he's going to be leaving for a whole day and part of the night this weekend." Liam said pushing Louis on his back so he could rest.

"I promise you that if I get pregnant, this baby will love you. You are going to be its father after all." Louis looked at him with teary eyes, seeing Liam's face falling once he realized what he meant.

He was never going to get to raise his child, his child would never know him as his father much less call him so.

"Don't worry about that." Liam gave him a gentle smile fixing the covers around him, "As long as I see him or her grow up then that's all that should matter."

Louis only gave him a tired smile then closed his eyes falling asleep a few seconds later. With one last look at him, Liam left the room going straight to his own thinking of what he had promised Louis. That night he tossed and turned around on his bed almost regretting it a few times but held it in knowing he had to help him, he had promised him and he wasn't going to break his promise.

A few days later during dinner when Louis was better, was when Howard finally announced he would be gone making Louis a little nervous when the day kept getting closer.

"I will be gone for a full day and half the night, I expect you to behave while I'm gone." Howard said, then grabbed the glass, drinking a bit before putting it back on its spot while Louis wished he could poison his food and be done with it once and for all. But without him, Louis was nothing.

"Of course." Louis rolled his eyes when he had his head down, knowing he couldn't see him, "When do I not behave, at this point I am surprised I still have a mind of my own."

"Do not get smart with me Louis. If you don't want me to beat you then shut up!" Howard snapped.

"That's something I do not understand." Louis continued, completely ignoring his glares and Liam's pleading looks from the corner of the dining room, "If you want me to give you a child, why do you keep beating me? Do you not know you are not supposed to beat a pregnant person."

"That's if you were actually pregnant and you are not. You are just as dry and useless as the rest. I don't know why I keep bothering with you. Should have gotten rid of you years ago, save myself all this trouble." Howard said, going back to eating and expecting Louis to stay quiet.

"Who knows dear, maybe at some point I was but with your beatings..." Louis trailed off letting it sink in. He was almost smirking but didn't even get the chance when he was slapped, making him fall off his chair taking down his plate full of food with him.

"Like you know anything about that!" Howard got up towering over him, "Your petty attempts at saving yourself are not going to work, you have four months."

When he finally left, Louis slowly got up letting Liam help him up as soon as he felt his warm arms around him, then sat down on the chair. He refused to eat when Liam brought him another plate, too busy sobbing as loud as he could now that he had the chance. His cries could be heard around the house, the servants trying to ignore it like they always did even when their hearts ached for him.

The days quickly passed by and when Howard finally left, Louis felt so much better and calm but it quickly faded away knowing what he had to do that night. He spent the rest of the day trying to stay calm but only kept getting more and more nervous when he didn't see Liam all day until that night when he showed up and Louis was thankful he had already prepped himself, not wanting to do it in front of him.

"Are you ready?" Liam asked him, trying not to think about what he and Louis were about to do.

"Yes." Louis nodded from where he was standing in the middle of the room, wearing nothing but his thin sleepwear, seeing Liam gulping before he took a step towards him.

Louis took a deep breath and let Liam take him to his bed.
