*LOUIS' POV*
I heard Harry running towards me. "Hey again" he said laughing, his breath uneven. "Hi" I chuckled underneath my breath.
After catching a few breaths he said, "where do you live,Louis?" I told him the address. " oh that's like a 5 minute walk from my place!!" He said excitedly, jumping up and down. 'God he looks so cute when he's excited...wait what?!' I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Harry, "Well can I walk you home?" He said, showing off his dimples. "You don't have to.." I replied looking down. "But I want to!" Said Harry, hopefully looking towards me. "M'Kay" I flashed a smile.
We passed by Harry's house and he showed me the front. "Fancy" I said. Harry just smiled and nodded. Soon we reached my place,followed by laughs and talks.
*HARRY'S POV*
Louis stood there at his door way and smiled "Thanks Harry,school was somehow amazing with you." He said shyly. "Your welcome Louis, by the way, here my number." I said as he quickly took out his phone and noted it down.
"Done—" he said when we got cut of by a huge crash from inside the house. I looked behind him, "That came from inside, let me check—" I said grabbing Louis' upper arm. I don't know why but I was so protective over Louis,he seemed like an innocent boy. I tried walking closer to open the door, when he wiggles out of my grasp, "it's f-fine, I got t-to go, bye!" He stuttered an slammed the door behind him as he hopped in, leaving me confused. I walked home 'He always stutters when he's nervous or something...today was a good day, but I still feel like I don't know him..' thinking Harry reached home.

"I'm home!" I screamed. "Hey haaz, the food's on the table, my friend's over.." replied Gemma, politely. "Thanks, Gem" I said, taking the food upstairs.
As soon as I closed the door behind me, I took off my shirt, kicked off my shoes, and threw myself on the bed, " finally!" I signed. I got up and stared at my food, I didn't feel like eating, I just couldn't help but worry about Louis, when suddenly my phone went off. It was a text by Louis, I smiled as I opened it.
*texting*
Louis- Hey Harry!
Harry- Hi Louis, I was just thinking about you..
Louis- really? What about?
Harry- those noises..is everything okay?
Louis- yeah, I'll tell you later, gtg bye!

I signed as I put my phone aside ' Louis is such an amazing person to just sit and admire what he's like, but there is something mysterious about him..' lost in Louis' thoughts, I drifted to sleep.
*THRID PERSON POV*
"Get down here!" Screamed Brent, his voice deep and demanding. Brent was Louis' dad, after the death of his mother, Brent became and alcoholic and mistreated Louis. "Y-Yes dad?" Louis replied weakly.

*LOUIS' POV*
"P-please, I don't l-like this.." I sobbed as Brent caressed my cheek. I didn't like to be touched like that. He suddenly pulled me forcefully on his lap and ran his hand through my thigh. I couldn't help but let a few sobs escape my month. "Be good for daddy.." I desperately tried to get out of his grip, when suddenly he lifted me up and slapped me so hard that I tossed on the ground. Brent grabbed his keys and jotted out and slammed the door hard, leaving me alone.
I lied there holding my cheek, which was still aching from the pain. I gathered all my strength and walked towards a near by mirror. Fresh tears rolled down my cheek,as I saw a dark blue bruise appear on my cheek. "WHY ME?! WHY CANT I BE STRONG?!WHY CANT I FIGHT BACK?! WHY?!!" I yelled at the mirror, like my reflection would actually talk back.. I took a few deep breaths, sighed and stumbled towards my kitchen. I felt weak, I needed something to eat. But as usual there was nothing. 'I don't even have any friends I could go to.." I mumbled, when I suddenly remembered "Harry! I'll go to him!" I said excitedly, somehow the thought about him got a little energy Back in me. "But I'll seem needy.." I said, I signed and giggled, " I should really stop talking to myself.."
I ran upstairs and changed into some better clothes, I wore a black sweat pant with a white tight T-Shirt and put on some joggers , I was starring at my reflection,when it hit me to message Harry first.
*texting*
Louis- hey, can I come over?
Harry- Yes, sure!
Louis- I'll be there in 10.
I grabbed my jacket, applied some makeup on my bruise to cover it up. " perfect" I said, seeing the now purple bruise seem a little lighter because of the makeup. I signed and rushed down stairs and out of my house making towards Harry's.

* HARRY'S POV*
I don't know why but I felt so excited about Louis visiting me. I already changed, nothing special, just a pink T-Shirt and white jeans. I looked around my room and quickly made my bed. It was weird as I never made my bed, maybe I just wanted to set a good impression cuz it was Louis' first time visiting me, I shrugged. I stopped as I heard the door bell and quickly rushed downstairs. I signed as I saw my sister show her friends some pictures of a boy, " Girls" I said, rolling my eyes. "I heard that.." Gemma replied in a annoying tone. I laughed and opened the door.
*LOUIS' POV*
"Hi Louis!" Harry jumped in excitement, his eyes,shinny. "Hi!" , I tried to match his excitement, but I felt so weak and the walk didn't help. "Come on in!" He said smiling politely. I followed Harry upstairs to a room. " I'll be back" he said,leaving me alone. I looked around, " fancy" I mumbled under my breath, he had posters, guitars and what not! The door fell open. "Mum made some steak before leaving,here" said Louis holding out one of the plates towards me. As much as I wanted it, I didn't wanted to appear needy. "No thanks, I'm full.." I lied.
*HARRY'S POV*
I knew he was lying, he looked so weak. "Please" I insisted and he grabbed the plate from my hand and flashed a weak smile. I sighed and sat besides him, as he put the plate on his lap.
I dont mean to intrude or something, but the way he was eating..it looked as if he hasn't eaten for days. My thoughts got interrupted as I heard his say, " OMG this is so good!!" He said Loudly, stuffing a mouthful of mash potatoes in his mouth. "I'm glad you liked it." I smiled and watched him as he ate. I noticed something as he put the plate down on the table. "What's that?" I asked, concerned. I saw how Louis tensed up and got nervous as I asked that question.. his eyes were filled with..fear?
