Louis walks passed the couch and opens Harry's room, he sighs as he looks around the room of the most dangerous man in Britain. It doesn't look that different to a normal bedroom. Although for a 27 year old single man it's very clean. There is a king size bed that sits in the middle of the room, there is a small window to the left that overlooks the green hills of London. There is a huge Tv on the wall in front of the bed, the ensuite attached has no door, it's huge and has a double shower and sink it's all stone and whites and creams it's actually stunning. Louis walks to the wardrobe and it's as big as his whole lounge room at his old place. Clothes on either side of a huge couch. Harry's suits are on one side and hoodies and sweats on the other, a vast contrast. At the end of the wardrobe though is a huge bay window that looks like a bed the window overlooks London's hills and the snow falling across them, Louis is instantly in love.

He grabs the blanket and pillow from the couch and wanders into the wardrobe. The cushions are big and so comfy and Louis lies sideways sinking into the cushions. He snuggles up and looks out the window. This is his new favourite place in the world. It's just beautiful.

Louis is sore and he's fed up, he's not stupid of course he knew something was going on but he didn't realise how dangerous it all was. He can't belive his dad is part of it all. Louis has never in his whole life seen or heard his dad raise his voice or even get mad, it's so strange, like a double life.

Louis tries his hardest but he can't remember what happened with his mum and if he's honest, he doesn't want too. He's put it to rest and doesn't want to re live the loss, the emptiness, it doesn't matter now anyway, how she died and for some odd reason Louis doesn't feel anger towards his dad, he was only trying to protect Louis. He just hopes his dad is safe and that the boys are all safe and Harry....he doesn't even understand these feelings. Why does he feel like this, why does he even care.

Louis is frustrated and feels like he wants to scream. Instead he cries, he feels so lonely and so confused.

He wipes his eyes when he hears frantic footsteps, obviously trying to find him.

He looks to the doorway and sees Harry who visibly relaxes when he sees Louis. Harry sighs and puts his hands on his hips looking Louis in the eyes. They don't say anything for a few seconds but it's not awkward.

"This is my favourite place to be too" Harry says as he breaks the silence and walks towards Louis

"It's bulletproof glass too" Harry then says winking at Louis

Louis scoffs and shakes his head.

Harry sits next to Louis legs opposite him.

"Want to talk about it?" Harry asks

Louis sighs and looks out the window just as the snow starts falling again.

"What about? The fact your stupid job killed my mum or the fact my dad was stupid enough to come back? Or the fact you're stupid enough to do what you do" Louis asks, he has no idea why he said that, he just doesn't know where to go with any of this.

Harry chuckles

"Ohh darling, you're lucky I like you, I don't let just anyone talk to me like that" Harry says it it's a warning.

Louis sighs.

"I'm sorry, I just" Louis starts but doesn't know where to go

"I understand, even if you don't think I do" Harry says

"I'm sure you do but you kill people for a living, I don't want to be part of anything you guys do and now I'm stuck in the middle of it all" Louis says.

"Well, at least you're safe here" Harry says

"Like a prisoner"  Louis says

"You can go to school Louis, you just need a guard" Harry says

"Well that's not suspicious at all" Louis scoffs.

Harry smirks

"Is my dad safe Harry?" Louis then asks quietly

"Look at me Louis," Harry says

Louis looks at Harry.

"I promise you, we do everything to keep each other safe and protected and that means your dad and you, okay?" Harry says

Louis looks at Harry and sees the sincerity in his eyes

"Okay" Louis whispers and Harry nods

"Now you seem to have taken a liking to my room huh?" Harry asks smiling

"I like it in the wardrobe" Louis says

"Well good, because I like my bed" Harry says Jovially

"You'll let me stay here?" Louis asks both surprised and relieved

Harry just winks as he leaves the wardrobe and gets ready for bed, texting Louis dad that Louis is okay and sleeping on his bay window bed.

Louis is so thankful and he lays down and watches the snow fall as he himself falls fast asleep. 

Louis still doesn't leave the wardrobe very often over the next few days, only to eat very little when his dad makes him come and sit at the table for dinner.  When he does head downstairs to the kitchen for a bottle of water on day three he gets to the fridge and can hear agonising screams coming from the basement.

Louis stops in his tracks as he hears screaming and he doesn't know how much more of this he can take. He doesn't want to know what the hell is going on down there.

He goes to head back up stairs quickly when suddenly he hears a screeching sound and  there are two cars that pull up out the front of the estate and about six men get out of the cars and completely storm the house, guns out. Shots are fired into the roof and Louis covers his ears, he crouches down behind the kitchen bench as he sees none other than Harry, Scott, Drew, Edward and his dad exit the basement and come running in the room guns out. It's a complete blaze of gunfire as Harry and the boys try to gain control.

Harry locks eyes wth Louis first

"Louis stay there, stay down" Harry stresses

Louis isn't stupid enough to move and he's terrified so does what he's told.

Harry's security then come flooding into the room about 20 men in suits, like the secret service. It doesn't take long for the gunfire to stop and all six men to flee, wounded. Louis having no idea that the ones alive are working for Tony and now have proof and a visual on Louis. He is real and is James son.

"All clear" one of the guards says and Louis gets up to flee. As he does though he comes face to face with what looks like a murder scene. There is blood everywhere obviously from the wounds Harry's team inflicted on the men who raided the house.

Louis breathing becomes irregular.

"Lou, kiddo, look at me" He hears his dad say from in front of him.

"I....I...." Louis shakes his head, he closes his eyes trying to breathe

"Let me take him" Harry says to James

"Harry, I....." James says upset

"J, let me take him, help the boys. I've got him, he's safe" Harry says and James nods. He kisses Louis on the head and Harry picks him up like a child

Louis grips onto Harry, his smell relaxing him. Harry puts his hand on the back of Louis head in protection as he's led by eight security guards upstairs.

The guards are stationed outside Harry's door and he brings Louis inside and straight to the wardrobe. Harry manages to take his shoes off and with his feet and sits down on the comfy pillows getting Louis comfortable in his lap. Louis breathing has somewhat settled but Harry can sense his tears. Harry just let's Louis cry as he does something he just never does and he comforts Louis. Harry never lets his guard down, would never do this for anyone but for some reason he feels an overwhelming need to protect Louis, to comfort him and be there for him, he craves it.

"I've got you darling, I won't let anything happen to you" Harry tells Louis.

Louis eventually calms down and leans back and he and Harry stare at each other

"I'm sorry you had to see that" Harry says

"What happened?" Louis asks scared

Harry sighs.

"Gang raid, I'm assuming Tony, security should have stopped them entering but someone's let them through, we will sort it, nothing for you to worry about" Harry says

"By sort it you mean kill someone?" Louis asks

Harry smirks

"Best not to ask questions darling" Harry says

"Does that happen a lot? You don't seem scared" Louis asks curiously

"I don't get scared sweetheart" Harry smirks "but it happens sometimes, not for years, I became to comfortable with security and I shouldn't have, that's all" Harry says.

"You could have died, all of you could have" Louis says as his eyes well up.

"They didn't do it to kill us, they did it to scare us, to warn us that Tony is back. No one would have died, those men were Tony's expendables" Harry says

"So he knew they could have got hurt or died?" Louis asks

"Yes, he sent them in knowing we would wound or kill them, but they would have had orders not to shoot us, just to scare us. It's all part of the game" Harry says seriously

"I don't like games" Louis says

"Oh I don't know, some games can be fun!" Harry says and there is teasing and lust behind his voice as his eyes sparkle.

Louis just stares at Harry curiously

Harry thinks Louis looks beautiful, so innocent, with his red rimmed eyes, red bitten lip, he's Devine and Harry doesn't know what comes over him as he leans in and kisses Louis on the lips.

Louis is shocked at first but he doesn't stop Harry and responds back as they share a slow intimate kiss.

Harry reaches and places his hands on either side of Louis face as he deepens the kiss and asks for entrance with his tongue.

Louis allows it, Harry's lips feel incredible, Harry's smell and dangerous masculinity is all around him and he's being devoured. Louis submits so easily and Harry just can't get enough.

"Ugh" Louis says as things get heated

"Fuck sweetheart...shit" Harry leans back to say before he's leaning in to kiss Louis again. Both of them out of breath.

They are interrupted by a knock on Harry's door and Harry pulls back and comes back to reality

"I'm sorry...I shouldn't have done that Louis" Harry says

Louis looks at Harry confused, Louis feels a pit in his stomach. That moment was everything to him, he felt it, the spark, it was incredible and now Harry is telling him he shouldn't have don't it

"I...." Louis starts

"I took advantage of your vulnerability, nothing more, I'm sorry" Harry says as he gets up.

Louis looks on helplessly, feeling the tears come back.

"I have to get back to work. Stay here you'll be safe" Harry says

"But I" Louis whispers

"Do as I've asked" Harry says sternly.

He huffs as he grabs his shoes and leaves a confused and upset Louis behind.

Louis is so confused about everything, he feels like his life has been turned upside down in a matter of weeks and it's been insanely crazy. He won't cry though, he falls asleep against the window feeling absolutely useless and overwhelmed.
