I'm Broken but I'm fine

Part 2

I finish washing myself off in the shower and I get out and dry myself, I put my bracelets back on and find my track pants and a Jumper in my bag. My pants are loose and I need to fold them over so they stay up, but I don't care. I sit on my bed and get lost in my thoughts, how am I going to do this for three months. I'm already exhausted.

HARRYS POV

I close Louis door and walk back downstairs to the boys.

"How is he Haz? Is he okay?" Liam asks.

We have all taken a week off to show Louis around and be here for him. It's nice to be all together, usually someone is always on shift. The boys are standing around the stove, cooking a stir fry for dinner. Zayn hands me a beer and I sit down at the bar stool.

"Yeah, he is.....I don't know, he is so sad. He also, he thinks we don't want him here, that we were forced to take him in. I tried to tell him that wasn't true but I don't think he believed me" I say.

"Well we just have to show him that we do want him here" Niall says, sipping on his beer as he stirs the fry pan.

"Yeah, we do want him here, he looks too thin though H and so scared for some reason" Zayn mentions.

"Yeah I know, he wouldn't eat when Niall and I stopped at the burger place, I hope he eats dinner though. I'm not convinced he doesn't have an eating disorder" I say.

"You think he has anorexia?" Liam asks surprised.

"Maybe,I don't want to say anything for sure, he has only been here an hour, but maybe I should talk to Andy anyway" I say.

The boys hum in agreement, Andy is a friend we met in college, he is a doctor and works at London's hospital. He works with teens and young adults who have eating disorders and other issues. We refer allot of our kids to him. Im then reminded of the way Louis acted when I tried to touch him.

"He......he flinched when I went to touch him and I've seen that so many times before guys, at work and it broke my heart. I think......I think he may have been abused by someone" I tell them as I play with the label on my Beer bottle.

"Fuck!" Zayn says.

"Yeah fucks right, well who would do that to him?" Niall asks.

"The kids at school maybe?" Liam says.

"Yeah that makes sense I guess, I don't know. All we can do is keep an eye on him at the moment" I say.

We all nod in agreement and I go to set the table. An uneasy feeling in my stomach.

LOUIS POV

I must of lost track of time, lying on my bed lost in my thoughts as the next thing I know is Harry is entering my room.

"Hey Lou Dinners up, you must be hungry" he says.

I internally role my eyes at him. I know he is trying to care but I don't want his concern, I don't want to eat when I don't feel like it and I want to be left alone. I sigh and sit up on the bed to face him.

"I'm not hungry" I say tiredly.

"Louis, look.... I know you don't want to be here but we are all glad you are and we would really love it if you came to eat with us, even if you don't eat much" Harry says smiling at me.

Ugh, his stupid dimples will be the death of me I swear. He is trying so hard and the least I can do is humour him and the boys.

"Okay" I say and he beams at my response.

He holds his hand out to help me off the bed, I take it and he pulls me towards him. When he lets go of my hand he places his on the small of my back and leads me down the stairs. When we get closer to the kitchen I start to get nervous and I start to play with the bracelets on my wrists. Harry must notice my discomfort.
