Chapter Nine

Louis went back to his room and curls up in his rather cold lonely bed and couldn't help but worried about what Niall had told Harry or what harry even thought about the small yet meaningful kiss on his head."Why is this so hard?" he mumbled into his pillow, clutching it tight in his arms. He stared for ages at his plain wall, thinking about all the made-up scenarios in his head of what might happened tomorrow. "I just want..."

He was lost for words at this point eyes saddening at the realization.
"...want Harry?"

She frowns a bit as she closed her eyes "I just need to get closer." He mumbled as he began to doze off "and make him mine."

The next morning Harry was already up in the dining room eating breakfast with Louis parents as the three sat in awkward silence
"Yes, Harry." Louis' mum cleared her throat, trying to break the awkward silence. "Hows the training going?""it's going fine" he says as he yawns a bit Because continue to eat. The silence came over the tree again before Louis came down

He was a bit taken aback when he saw Harry seated with his parents but nevertheless offered them all a smile, 'good morning's' exchanged. He sat down beside his mum, face to face with Harry.Harry looks into Louis eyes and smiles as he blushed "good morning Lou." He says using the nickname he decided early that morning.

Louis blushed and smiles happily at the nickname as he nods before turning to his mother and father hearing them say a bit quiet 'good morning' as they observe the two
"Nice day today is, hm?" Louis' dad said with a suspicious glance at the two who kept glancing at each other when one wasn't looking.

"Hm, I do agree father." Louis mumbled as he picked at his toast.

Harry finished eating rather quickly and stood up to leave but Louis mother says, "sit down harry. I have some news to share." Harry was hesitant but sat down "o-okay.'  Louis mother sat up straight with a smile "we decided to go on a small trip in the spirit fields. Like good old time. Remember Louis?"Louis smiled, nodding silently at the news. "I'm guessing you want me to try and do my best being king while you're gone?"

"yes we having Niall to report back to us when we come back." Louis father says as he yawns a bit. "And we don't want the kingdom in ruins by the time we come back." Jackie joked, a warning glance at her son. "It's only a week." "Understood." Louis smiled, getting up from his seat. "Can I go now? Or is there anything else you would like to say?"

Both his parents gave each other nervous glances, making it obvious that something was up. He could have sworn that their gaze was at Harry for a fraction of a second before it went back on him, flckering smiles on their faces.

He could have sworn that their gaze was at Harry for a fraction of a second before it went back on him, flckering smiles on their faces."no I think that's it" Jackie says with a soft smile "just be careful alright?"

"Alright..." Louis took a quick glance at Harry who was almost done with his toast. "Outside for training once your done, okay?"

"Yeah." Harry nodded slowly, watching Louis walk out of the hall silently.

Harry blushed s butt as his rather thick tail wags and he turns to the parents "thank you for the meal " he say  before dashing off to the back yard

He made his way down just as Louis was done bringing down some weapons, laying neatly in a straight line on the grass. Harry watched keenly inspecting them all, ranging from knives and daggers to long swords and bow and arrows."I'm a collector of money things but nothing as fine as these" harry says

"So the stories are true?" Louis questions curious.

Harry nods softly "dragons love treasures especially gold and things that shines perfectly in the light. Or any woman or man as their soon already is lovers."Louis hummed, already having noticed the way Harry's eyes fluttering towards and back from the weapons."I wanna test how you do with weapons because you can't always be fighting your dragon form. It's to big and noticeable " Louis says

Harry nodded, letting his eyes rest his gaze at him. "Can I?"

"Pick up the sword first."

Harry seem like a kid in a candy shop as he grew Excited as he clapped his hands together looking over the weapon before slide his hands over the two rather long dagger blades. He smiles as he picked the two "I'm not a sword person."
Louis just smiled at his excitement, drawing out his own sword in front of him. "Sword fight practice today, I'll teach you."
"dagger fight though" he had a small whine in his voice as he points to the beautiful ocean blue daggers
"Not today, Haz."
Harry sighs as he picks up a sword which rather small compare to harry who was very tall

He yields the sword, copying Louis' motion and was now close to touching swords.

"Right, that's how you yield." Louis mumbled, giving him a small smile. Harry grinned too soon for Louis suddenly made his move, managing to push him around and pressed his sword smoothly against his neck, smirking at the sharp intake of breadth he took.

"Another lesson here, is that you should always pay attention, Harold." Louis tutted, quickly pulling away from him.
Louis spent some time trying to teach Harry what he'd just did, patiently helping him with his hand moments as the lad stumbled about with his bambi legs being a struggle for him.
Soon they took a break and harry took his shirt as his shirt was already began to sweat through
Louis gulped silently, making himself busy as he tried his best not to seem like a creep. Harry didn't seem to mind or either didn't bother to comment, who knows.

"can we do daggers now?" He asked

"Why so interested in daggers?" Louis questioned, eyebrows raised."because they are a lot easier to handle than swords

"So you want to learn them just because its easier?" Louis scoffed, already picking up his dagger. "Lets see what you'll think of it once we're done."

He picks it them and takes a deep breath as he the daggers in a different style than normal as he dashed forward before kicking him down down got close holding the dagger to his neck

"Strike two." Louis whispered against his ear, smirking wide at the wide eyed lad.

Harry stares into his eyes before gently kissed his forehead "break time." He whispered before getting off and blushed and sets the daggers down before opening his wings to come out and flew up

Louis watched him silently as he flew off, focusing on his breathing instead. He needed to get a grip of himself or else Harry would find out.Louis held his forehead where harry had placed his soft lips and smiles at himself as he blushed.But all good things must come to an end. Before he could even move to his feet, he spotted Niall quickly making his way over to him already aware of what he's about to say.

"Come on, time for your duties oh your highness." Niall drawled out, exaggerating his bow and putting on a cheeky grin. "You can talk to your lover boy after."

Louis groaned scrunching up his nose and looked around for Harry, spotting him on the other side.

"Harry! I have to go now, you'll be fine by yourself yeah?" He called out.
Harry landed in front of him "just hurry back before I set the garden on fire" he says as he stares him down before breaking a small smile before walking off
Louis shook his head, a fond smile on his face while he watched him go, Niall already noticing the interaction between the two. They walked back to the castle silently, Louis preparing himself for the days work ahead.It took longer than expected as there was a large problem with harry staying at the kingdom

There were now a large group of people who had made it their mission to get the dragon out of their kingdom, not on board with such a 'dangerous creature' living among them. Louis suspects that all they want to do is make a fuss over nothing when clearly Harry hadn't caused any harm whatsoever to any of them.

But that changes when he saw a man pushed forward, hand wrapped up and still bleeding thoroughly through it, a pained expression on his face.

"What happened?" Louis questioned, immediately by the man side and looking at him to give some assurance.

"It was last night...I don't remember much but I was pushed while walking across the fields and assaulted..." the man had wide scared eyes that refused to look him in the eye, still shaken up by the events. "There were claws...my necklace that has been in my family for centuries..gone!"

There was silence in the court as everyone absorbed the new happenings, immediately set on who the criminal was.

"Its that no good dragon!" A man roared shaking his fist in anger. "He did this!"

Everyone began to yell and blame the dragon for the attack as the man who was injuried yelled out before he was taken away to tend to his injuries.

Niall looks at Louis with a frown as Louis looked back him as the two didn't believe what happened.  "Everyone settle down!" Louis yelled as he stood up causing everyone to grow quiet and turns their attention to him.

"We will have a trial for the dragon and the man." He sags "but as for right now he must rest! And heal! Before being able to do anything. So please! Leave the castle and go back to your home."

The people were quite for several minutes, as if debating what to do, before finally leaving with frowns upon their faces. Louis sighed sitting down in his throne with his head in his hands. Just something that would happened, he was expecting it too.

"Harry would not do this." Louis muttered, looking up at Niall with desperate eyes. "Right?"

"Of course not, it has to be someone else." Niall agrees, pacing about. "But we still have to question him, at least for the peace of mind for hurt man."

"Probably.." Louis was in distress, mind whirling with thoughts about Harry and how he didn't want him to ever trust him. About how dragons love treasures, like the necklace that was probably gold or diamonds.
