"You're high!" Harry stated and stared at him pensively.

"Well, yeah. No big deal. Let's just get some sleep." Louis said and tried to walk past him but Harry grabbed his arm.

"This is not weed. What the hell did you take Louis?" He asked.

Louis hesitated but he didn't want to lie.
"I tried coke okay? Don't make a fuss about it. Honestly Haz, it's no big deal."

Harry's eyes widened in horror.
"Cocaine? What the hell Louis! I can't believe you. What the fuck are you doing?"

"Not having this argument right now, that's for sure." Louis muttered and pulled his arm away and went over to the bed and laid down.

Harry sighed but climbed into bed as well.
"I'm worried about you."

"I'm fine." Louis answered and turned around so he could spoon his husband.

They didn't say anything more and Louis soon fell asleep, snoring lightly. Harry on the other hand laid awake for a long time. He was really worried about his husband. Louis hadn't been himself since Zayn left. He had been drinking a lot. Harry didn't want to say anything about that. He had been the one out clubbing last year to get away. But now he came home and was high on cocaine? Like smoking weed wasn't bad enough! Louis had also lashed out at the singer Naughtyboy on Twitter after The Daily Mirror had written an article about Zayn doing a collab with him. Louis was in a dark place right now and he didn't know how to help him.

Louis woke up the next morning feeling like absolute shit. After he hurled his guts out in the toilet, or at least it felt like he did, he took two painkillers and brushed his teeth. He looked up and saw Harry through the mirror. He looked concerned.
"Are you okay?"

"Yes. Stop worrying about me love." He answered.

"How can I not? What's going on Lou? You haven't been yourself lately. Please talk to me. I'm your husband!" Harry pleaded.

Louis turned around and walked up to him and hugged him.
"I'm sorry I'm such a mess. Zayn leaving really got to me. I'll do better. Yesterday was a one-time thing." Louis said and decided to not tell his husband if he tried coke again. He had really felt like he was on top of the world, but he didn't want Harry to worry about him. He had it under control. 

He let go so he could look at Harry and caressed his cheek.
"Modest called me yesterday to inform me that they were planning something but they didn't give me the details. Mr. Magee was gloating. I don't like it. Who knows what they have planned?"

"Whatever it is, we'll handle it like we always have." Harry promised and pecked his lips.

"Yeah." Louis sighed but then he smiled. "Come on, let's have some fun! Write a song with me."

Harry smiled and nodded his head. They went back to the bed and sat down, with their backs against the headboard. Louis had grabbed a notebook and a pen. They spent the next hour laughing and giggling while they threw out suggestions, discussing it back and forth, crossing out and adding words until they had a finished song on paper. Louis read it out loud.

I might never be your knight in shinin' armor
I might never be the one you take home to mother
And I might never be the one who brings you flowers
But I can be the one, be the one tonight

When I first saw you
From across the room
I could tell that you were curious, oh, yeah
Girl, I hope you're sure
What you're looking for
'Cause I'm not good at making promises

But if you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms
And if you like having secret little rendezvous
If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do
Then baby, I'm perfect
Baby, I'm perfect for you

And if you like midnight driving with the windows down
And if you like going places we can't even pronounce
If you like to do whatever you've been dreaming about
Then baby, you're perfect
Baby, you're perfect
So let's start right now

I might never be the hands you put your heart in
Or the arms that hold you any time you want them
But that don't mean that we can't live here in the moment
'Cause I can be the one you love from time to time

When I first saw you
From across the room
I could tell that you were curious, oh, yeah
Girl, I hope you're sure
What you're looking for
'Cause I'm not good at making promises

But if you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms
And if you like having secret little rendezvous
If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do
Then baby, I'm perfect
Baby, I'm perfect for you
And if you like midnight driving with the windows down
And if you like going places we can't even pronounce
If you like to do whatever you've been dreaming about
Then baby, you're perfect
Baby, you're perfect
So let's start right now

And if you like cameras flashin' every time we go out
Oh, yeah
And if you're looking for someone to write your breakup songs about
Baby, I'm perfect
Baby, we're perfect

If you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms
And if you like having secret little rendezvous
If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do
Then baby, I'm perfect
Baby, I'm perfect for you
And if you like midnight driving with the windows down
And if you like going places we can't even pronounce
If you like to do whatever you've been dreaming about
Then baby, you're perfect
Baby, you're perfect
So let's start right now

Louis looked over at Harry and smirked.
"Come on baby, let's have a secret rendezvous."

Harry cackled out loud until Louis silenced him with his lips.
