The sound of the door slamming shut made Louis jump in shock from where he's seated on Harry's couch. He's been staying at Harry's flat for the past few days because there was something wrong with the pipes at his place. Louis looks up to see Harry pulling his jacket off with pursed lips, body tense as he mumbles angrily to himself. Louis frowns and tilts his head in confusion. He had the day off while Harry had a shift from 6am to 8pm so he doesn't know why Harry would be so angry.

He was okay when Louis kissed him goodbye this morning. Louis pushes himself up off the couch and walks over to Harry who moved into the kitchen. Louis hops up onto the counter and watches Harry rip the fridge open, grabbing a bottle of water before he slams it shut. Louis twitches at the loud bang and stares at Harry worriedly. "H, what's wrong?" Louis asks him while he leans back on his hands. Harry doesn't even glance at him and instead slams the water bottle down onto the table.

"Be quiet, Louis." Harry mutters, catching Louis by surprise. He didn't do anything and he's a bit hurt that Harry is talking to him that way. Louis clears his throat and shifts a bit, tilting his head down. "Harry, why are you so angry?" Louis whispers quietly and flinches when Harry grasps his chin, flaming green eyes meeting blue. Louis holds his breath as he looks at Harry, watching his eyes flicker slightly.

"Stop talking, Louis. I'm in a bad mood, it was a shitty day at the hospital and frankly I don't want to hear your voice. Or see you for that matter." Harry snaps while Louis stares up at him in shock, eyes stinging painfully with tears. Why is Harry acting like this? Louis refrains from talking in fear of angering Harry further, watching the man walk away to the living room. Louis blinks back tears and sniffles before retreating to Harry's bedroom, slipping under the cold covers. He can hear Harry curse loudly in the other room and flinches.

Louis wipes his eyes with shaky hands, breathing out slowly. He decides that he doesn't want to be here when Harry is like this and gets up to collect his things. He'll just spend the night at Niall's place and wait for Harry to cool down. Harry rubs his temples as he breaths in deeply through this nose, exhaling through his mouth as he tries to calm down. He knows he's being an asshole and for some reason he can't control it.

The hospital was extremely busy and Harry was swamped with patients. He got pulled into another appendicitis surgery and had to deal with an angry parent who was against the idea of anesthesia. Then to top it all off Harry had to listen to some asshole doctors talk about Louis as if he was a piece of meat. It infuriated him, this was his omega they were talking about. God, the things he wanted to do to those scumbags. He could have killed them if he really wanted to, he hates when people talk about Louis at all. So to have them speaking so lowly of him really frustrated him.

Harry also knows he shouldn't be taking it out on the fragile omega but it's like he's lost control. He just feels this anger bubbling and he doesn't know to release it. Louis walking into the living room with his bag catches Harry's attention, causing the man to stand up quickly. He walks over to Louis and tries to lock eyes with him, failing at it when Louis avoids eye contact. His hand wraps around Louis wrist and he holds onto it firmly, his other hand gripping Louis' chin so their eyes connect. Louis eyes were brimmed with tears and Harry's heart broke but the anger remained.

Harry studies Louis' features and frowns when he sees the sliver of fear that shows itself within the depths of cerulean eyes before Louis masks it over. "Where do you think you're going?" Harry asks gruffly while moving his hand down Louis' thin wrist to grab the bag from him. He chucks it to the side, the bag slamming against the wall. He slides his arm around Louis' body, pulling him closer to his chest.
