Cute Larry gif at the top/side. I think it's adorable. How about you?

Harry shoved his hands into his pockets and looked at his suitcases. It was all so soon, so fast. Just to pack up and leave like that. He didn't want to, not at all. But he had to.

"You alright?"

The familiar voice immediately brought a smile to his face. The curly-haired boy turned to Louis and pressed a chaste kiss to his lips.

"I think I should be asking you that question," Harry says, looking into Louis' blue-gray eyes.

Louis looked down at the ground, hands fiddling with the hem of his shirt. Harry ran his hands through the older boy's hair and planted a soft kiss on his forehead.

"Hey," Harry says quietly. "Look at me."

Slowly, Louis peeled his gaze away from the floor, only for Harry to see that the boy had been crying, the unshed tears shining in his eyes. The green-eyed boy felt his heart drop at the sight of seeing the pain in Louis' eyes. And at that moment, Harry felt the pain too.

"Hey, don't cry," Harry said softly, using his thumb together wipe away Louis' tears.

Louis sniffed and backed away from Harry. He let out a shaky breath and said, "I'm sorry for crying. But you can't tell me not to cry."

Harry looked down. "I know, babe. I'm-". Louis cut him off.

"No, Harry. You don't know," Louis said shakily. "You're leaving me, Harry! And I don't know how long you're going to be gone! You should have expected tears!"

Louis' eyes welled up. Harry took a step forward, enveloping the older boy in a hug. Louis leaned into the embrace, and Harry felt the tears burn in the back of his own eyes. Louis gripped Harry's shirt, nuzzling his face into the soft material.

"Harry," Louis muttered. "Why can't you stay?"

The question caused Harry to let out a choked sob.

"You know know why, Louis," he sniffled. "I need to get away for a while. I can't stand being here, remembering what he did to me."

Louis knew Harry had been abused by his father. He also knew that it was selfish to ask Harry to stay. But he couldn't help but ask, just hoping that maybe Harry would say yes.

Louis nodded, not wanting Harry to go, but understanding why. And after a very, very long hug they pulled away.

"I love you so much, Louis," Harry said before pressing one last kiss to Louis' lips.

"I love you, too, Harry," Louis mumbled into the kiss.

The green-eyed boy grabbed his suitcases and walked into the airport, but not before looking back at Louis. The love of his life.

But also, part of the reason Harry was leaving.

[A/N] So, that was the prologue. I hoped you enjoyed it. Sorry that I took so long to update. I couldn't bring myself to actually walk my ass to my computer. Wow, I'm fucking lazy. Well, yay! It's up now and I hope you liked it. I'm not sure when the next update will be, maybe in a week or two. But until then sit tight!
