"Mm , morning ." Harry snuggled into Louis' back , kissing the back of his head . "Let's stay in bed all day ."

"I have an evening shift today ," Louis sighed , his fingers running up and down Harry's arms that were wrapped around him , "We could stay until noon ."

"Mm , good enough for me ." Harry craned his neck to kiss Louis' cheek , "I'm going to vlog today , alright ?" Harry pulled back from their cuddle and grabbed his camera from the beside table , turning it on .

"Hey , everyone , Harry here . I didn't really have an idea for a video for this week , and my next video I'm collabing with Troye but only next week . So today , Lou and I are going to be lazy butts and stay in bed all day ."

Louis giggled slightly from next to him , Harry smiled at him and leaned to kiss his cheek .

"You know what , I have an idea ." Harry's smile grew as he started getting up from the bed , "You know those couples filming themselves being all cute and cheesy ? We're going to be doing this today ." Harry took the camera's stand , positioning it so the bed could be seen .

He jumped back on the bed and turned Louis to face him , pressing their lips together , "Is that okay with you ?" He asked quietly , Louis nodded shyly and tucked a few curls back behind Harry's ear . Harry smiled and cuddled into him , "Mm , you're warm ."

"You're cuddly ." Louis giggled , Harry chuckled and tucked his hand under his shirt to trace patterns on his back , "You love it when I'm cuddly , admit it ."

Louis giggled and nodded , hiding his face in Harry's neck . Harry grinned and squeezed him closer , "You're even more adorable than a baby kitten ."

Louis blushed deeper , the smile never leaving his lips . He pulled his head out of Harry's neck , "You're a cheeseball ." He giggled quietly .

Harry cupped his cheek and rubbed his thumb on his cheekbone , leaning down to press their lips together , "You're the cutest ."

"You're the sweetest ." Louis bumped the tip of his nose with Harry's gently , Harry pecked his nose , "You're perfect ."

"You are ." Louis fought back .

"Don't fight me on this ." Harry pointed a finger at him , Louis linked their index fingers together with a sweet smile , "But you are ."

"Don't get me started on you ." Harry turned serious , "I can go days upon days , telling you how perfect you are , telling you how I love every single thing about you ."

The blush returned to Louis' cheeks , he brought Harry's face closer to his and pressed their lips together . Harry smiled into the kiss and moved ontop of him to pepper kisses all over his face .

Louis giggled and moved his head side to side , trying unsuccessfully to avoid his lips . He blindly grabbed a pillow from near his head and hit Harry with it a few times until he stopped , only to grab a pillow and hit Louis back .

"Pillow fight !" Harry called and stood up , pulling Louis with him . They hit each other playfully , both laughing . 

Louis turned his face away from Harry and hit him , when he heard Harry groaning in pain . He turned his head to see Harry cupping his lower area , falling on the bed . Louis threw his head back in laughter , falling on his knees next to him .

"Are you okay ?" He giggled , hand on his shoulder . Harry groaned again , "Next time you hit me there I'm never going to have kids ." It made Louis giggle even more .

"You think this is funny ?!" Harry leaped from his curled position and tackled Louis to the mattress , "You can't beat me on this , I'm stornger than you !" He started tickling him .

"S-stop , Harry ! Please !" Louis pushed at his hands , "I-I'm str-stronger !" He kept giggling and squirming .

Harry chuckled , he stopped and let Louis flip them , Louis straddled Harry and held his wrists near his head . "I won ." He grinned , still giggling from the tickling .

"I let you win ." Harry chuckled , loving how wide Louis' smile is .

"That's what they all say ." Louis sassed him , giggling as Harry raised his eyebrow playfully .

Harry lifted his head from the bed and pressed their lips together , pulling Louis down with him to keep the kiss going . When he was sure Louis is fully distracted he flipped them , Louis let out a small squeak and giggled once again . He still had his thighs around Harry's hips , with Harry smirking down at him .

"Looks like I won ."

"I let you win ." Louis stuck his tongue at him .

Harry raised his eyebrow , "I see you haven't had enough of the tickle bear ?" He tickled him again , Louis pushed at his hands and chest as he laughed , both from the tickling and at Harry's silliness .

"I h-had enough ! S-stop !" He called through his giggles , Harry stopped and pecked his nose , "You're adorable ."

~~

"Come on , I'll drive you ." Harry grabbed his car keys as Louis put on his jacket .

They got into the car and Harry pulled out of the driveway , "Okay , so since you're my baby , I want you texting me every hour to tell me you're okay , I don't want anything to happen to you ."

"Harry ." Louis giggled , "I think you're a little overreacting ."

"I'm not overreacting , I'm trying my fucking best to keep you safe ." Harry snapped .

"O-okay . Sorry ." Louis' smile vanished , looking down to his lap .

"No , baby . I'm sorry , I shouldn't have snapped ." Harry took his hand , pressing a kiss to the back of it . "I want you safe , I want to know no one is hurting you , in any way ."

"I know ." Louis nodded .

"So please , text me , so I can stay calm . Okay ?"

"Okay ."

Soon they reached the store , Harry pressed his lips to Louis' , "I love you ."

"Love you too ." Louis gave him a small smile , he pecked his cheek before getting out of the car .

~

Louis was sitting behind the desk , looking through his phone , when the store's door opened . He looked up and his breath hitched , making him drop his phone .

"I'm here to finish what I started ." Nick locked the door behind him , marching towards Louis , who had nowhere to run .

He choked him and lifted him up against the wall , "You need to stay away from Harry , you hear me ?" He growled .

Louis was holding onto Nick's arms to try rip them from his neck , his legs kicking lightly . He was losing air .

"I'm going to come back , and by the time I come back you'd better break it off with Harry , Or else -" He pulled a switch knife out of his pocket , pointing it to Louis' stomach . 

Louis stopped moving , waiting to see if he does something . Nick put the knife back in his pocket , "You're warned ." He put him down , only to punch him two times , creating a black eye .

Nick left the store , leaving Louis on the floor , tears were streaming down his face and he was gasping for air .

He sat there for fifteen minutes , debating with himself whether he should call Harry or not .

He wanted to tell him , to make Nick go away , but he didn't want to seem weak and dependent .

Eventually he picked his phone from the floor , dialling Harry's number .

"Hey baby , are you okay ?"

Louis didn't talk for a few seconds .

"Love , are you okay ? You're getting me worried . Please talk to me ."

"P-please come ." He whispered .

"I'm on my way ." Harry said quickly and hung up .

Louis pulled himself up from the floor , going to the small kitchen-room at the back of the store . He grabbed some ice from the freezer and wrapped it in a towel , pressing it to his eye and hissing in pain .

He walked back to the front desk , sitting on the chair behind it .

Soon Harry parked the car outside the store , rushing out and locking it . He walked into the store to see Louis with dry tears on his cheeks , holding the ice to his eye .

"Baby , what happened ?" He rushed over to him and kneeled in front of him , carefully removing the ice from his eye to see a bruise formed around it and on his cheekbone .

"N-nick ." He whispered , not having any enerjy left to speak up .

Harry growled at the back of his throat , "Fucking hell ." He ran his fingers through his hair , when he noticed Louis' neck is red aswell .

"H-he choked you ?" He asked quietly , Louis nodded , embarrassed .

Harry let out a long breath before pulling his phone out of his pocket , dialling Alberto's number .

"Hello ?"

"Al , I need you for something , this is really important ."

"Sure , what is it ?"

"Can you come to the record store where Louis works ? This is not something to talk about over the phone ."

"Alright , I'll be there in a few ." He hung up .

Harry turned his attention to Louis , "Alberto is going to help us through it , because I know myself and if it were up to me , I would go and beat the hell out of Nick ."

"Please don't ." Louis grabbed his hand , Harry squeezed his hand comfortingly , "I'm not going to , that's why I called Alberto , he has the best solutions ."

Soon Alberto walked into the store , he walked over to Harry and Louis , "I'm here , let's talk ."

Harry explained the whole situation with Nick , from what happened in the US , to the other time Nick came , then the event that happened the same day .

"I really need a restraining order against him , please tell me this is a good enough reason to get one ." Harry finished .

"This is , we need to go to the police , report the situation , fill some papers , have a lawyer for the court case , get him judged and let the judge decide the order ."

"God , that sounds freaking long ." Harry ran his fingers through his hair , "But it's worth it . We'll go tomorrow , yeah ?"

"Okay . For now , I suggest you call Louis' boss to tell him you're closing early and explain the situation so you can take him home ." 

"Yeah , I will . Thanks Al ." Harry gave him a hug , Alberto patted his shoulder and turned to Louis , "If you need anything you can always come to me too , yeah ?"

Louis nodded , "Thank you ."

Alberto gave him a smile and a light pat to the shoulder , "I'm going to go now , I'll talk to you tomorrow morning ."

"Okay , thank you again , have a good night ." Harry waved at him then turned his attention to Louis , "Give me your phone . What's your boss's name ?"

"Tim ." Louis answered and pressed the ice back to his eye .

Harry found Tim's contact and called him , explaining the situation . Tim agreed for Louis to go home , and talked to him to make sure he'll be okay .

~~

"I'm glad you called me ." Harry kissed very gently around Louis' bruised eye , "I hope you know you can trust me with everything ."

"I know ." Louis nodded gently , having a slight headache from the pain of the punch .

Harry smiled lightly and pressed a kiss to his lips , "I can get you Bear and Milo for a cuddle while I shower ."

Louis smiled a little , "Okay ."

Harry pressed one last kiss to his lips before going to get Bear and Milo .

Bear jumped on the bed , Harry placed Milo on the bed aswell and pecked Louis' cheek , watching the two dogs cuddling up to Louis .

While Harry was in shower Louis's eyes felt heavy , he crawled under the covers on his side of the bed , Milo cuddled into himself at Louis' feet while Bear lied himself right next to Louis , nuzzling him comfortingly .

When Harry walked out of the shower in sweatpants Louis was already fast asleep , he smiled at the three cuddled up to each other . He took a picture and posted it on snapchat , making sure Louis' bruise isn't visible , not to track attention .

He moved Bear away , "Now it's my turn , sorry buddy ." He kissed Bear's head and crawled under the covers aswell , pulling Louis closer to him . He pressed a kiss to his forehead and his nose , "Good night baby , love you ."
