Part 9

Rest

The boys went down the elevator & went back on the now dark streets that were only lit by lamp posts and store lights. Harry hooked his arm on Louis' and walked closely to the older boy. The older boy smiled as he and Haz slowly walked along. "Not scared are you?" Lou asked teasingly.

"No!" Harry said with a hint of nervousness in voice.

"It's ok Haz. I'm here so no need to be scared." Lou smiled as he gave Harry a quick kiss on the cheek.

"I know. I just don't appreciate being shot and I don't want it to happen again."

"Oh...oh that...well we're almost at the hotel ok?" Lou's said but his voice a little unsteady.

Harry nodded "I'm sure I'm just worried over nothing."

"No you're not...I understand why you're scared. It's ok." The boys soon made it back to the hotel and took the elevator to their room. Louis opened it with his key and they walked in. Harry smiled when they got inside and plopped down on the bed. "You tired Haz?" Lou asked as he sat down at the edge & turned around to face him.

"Just a bit."Harry shrugged. "That's the most I've moved for days."

"Oh yea that's right. Sorry for moving too fast today..."

Harry shook his head "Don't be. You just wanted to get there on time."

Louis shrugged. "Well ok." he said crawling over to Harry's side. "But you're ok right? It doesn’t hurt?"

"Not that bad... Thanks for asking."

The older boy nodded & scooted closer to Harry. "Well thanks for putting up with me today...have you thought of a surprise yet?" Louis smirked.

Harry shrugged, "Maaaybe."

"What is maybe supposed to mean, Curly?"

"It means that I could have something planned, but I also may not."

"Hm ok Secretive-Hazza." Lou said as he gave Harry a kiss on the cheek.

"If I told you it wouldn't be a surprise silly!" Harry grinned.

"Yes I know! Haha" Louis stuck his tongue out at Harry.

Harry laughed. "I can do that too!" He said sticking his tongue out too

Louis smiled. "If you couldn't stick your tongue out, I'd be worried! Haha, silly Curly."

Harry rolled his eyes. "Me too, Louis!"

"There! You rolled your eyes again!" Louis pouted.

"Whatcha gonna do?" Harry smirked

"Weeeelll what do you think I'm going to do?" Louis smirked as he moved his head to Haz's neck & nipped it.

Harry giggled "I should roll my eyes more often."

"Haha you should if you want me to keep doing that!"

Harry backed away from Louis before looking straight into the older boy’s eyes and rolled his own dramatically. The older boy laughed a little then moved towards Harry's neck again to give him two nips this time. Harry stifled a giggle and brought his shoulders up, blocking off the sides of his neck. "Hey!" Louis backed up to look at Harry's face & playfully glared. "You don't want me to, Curly?"

Harry dropped his shoulders down. "It just tickles that's all."

"Oooh." Lou smirked and lightly poked Haz's stomach. "Does that tickle?"

Harry giggled "Maybe a little"

The older boy smiled and gave Haz a quick kiss then rolled onto his stomach, burying his head in a pillow. "Louis what are you doing?" Harry laughed, wrapping his arms around the older boy's waist.

Louis moved his head up a little to peak out and said "I don't know but this pillow is fluffy." plopping his head back down.

Harry reached up and felt the pillow. "You're right it is fluffy!"

"Yes very fluffy...it's so comfy...I think...I might fall...asleep..." Louis said his voice drifting off.

Harry giggled and buried his face in Louis side. "Good night Boo Bear."

"Mmmhm" Louis said in reply, reaching his hand down to pat Harry's head then soon fell asleep.
