*Harry's POV*🐸

"Are you sure you're alright?" I ask Louis as I see him wince in pain as he sits down on my bed

"Yes, Harry I'm just a little sore," Louis says

I had decided to take Louis to my house after I found out that people had been bullying him. I wouldn't give those jerks any more opportunities to hurt my baby.

I was sitting in my desk chair while Louis sat on my bed. He had tried to avoid talking about what had happened but he wouldn't get out of it now.

"Well you wouldn't be sore if those idiots hadn't hurt you," I say angrily

"Harry really It's fine, it's no big deal. I'm not that important anyway" Louis says  looking down at his lap, fidgeting with his fingers

"No, it's not fine Louis. How could you ever think that people hurting you is fine? How could people hurting the most wonderful, funny, gorgeous, precious boy ever be fine" I say standing up and cupping his face in my hands forcing him to look at me.

"You are so important. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise." I say looking into his deep blue eyes.

I see his eyes begin to tear up and he nods his head. I give him a kiss and wipe away a tear from his cheek.

"You tired babe?" I ask him as I caress his cheek

"Yea I'm just physically and emotionally exhausted," he says

"Let's sleep then," I say motioning for him to scoot over so I can lay next to him

He already changed when I was cleaning up his injuries. I lay down next to him and pull him close. I hold him gently almost as if I'm afraid he'll break.

"Harry" Louis whispers after a few seconds of silence

"Yes, Lou?" I ask quietly, afraid to break the sudden comfort washing over me.

"Don't let me go" Louis says so quiet I barely hear it

"Never," I say pulling him impossibly closer

Slowly we both drift into sleep feeling content in each other's arms.

"Are you sure you don't have something smaller?" Louis asks as he pulls up the sleeves from my jumper he's wearing

"Louis, you look adorable don't worry. Plus now people will know you're mine. You know? I've marked my territory." I say going over and grabbing our backpacks

Louis snorts and says "Mark your territory? Really? It's not like anyone's trying to take me from you."

"Oh? Have you forgotten about Eleanor already? Good that proves you don't care about her" I say wrapping my arms around his waist

"Eleanor doesn't count. I'm gay remember?" Louis says placing his hands around my neck

"What!? You're gay! You're telling me my boyfriend is gay?" I ask sarcastically

"Oh shut up you know what I meant," Louis says rolling his eyes

"I do," I say looking at him fondly

"Boys hurry!! You're gonna be late!!" Anne says walking into the room

"Sorry," Louis says releasing himself from my grip on him and finishing getting ready

"Harry honey, I need your car today mines in the shop," Anne says apologetically

"It's fine me and Lou will just take the bus," I say holding Louis's hand as he settles next to me

"Okay, well I've got to get going. See you boys after-school" Anne says walking out of the room

"We can walk to my house to get my car if you want" Louis says fidgeting

"No it's fine we can just ride the bus" I say walking us out of the room and into the kitchen

"Are you sure?" Louis asks playing with his sleeves again

"What you embarrassed to be seen with me Tomlinson?" I ask playfully

"Yeah right, if anything you should be embarrassed to be seen with me" Louis says looking down

"Louis I'm not embarrassed to be seen with you. I wanna show the whole world that you're mine" I say squeezing his hand

"I just don't want you to get hurt, I mean the bus is where things are the worst in terms of bullying." Louis says sadly

"Well better me than you" I say

"Harry" Louis says warningly

"What? Someone's gotta teach those assholes that they can't treat you like that" I say angrily

"Why can't you just leave it alone?" Louis says suddenly his voice filling with frustration

"Because Louis, it's not right!" I yell at him frustrated

He flinches away as I yell at him. My expression softens as I remember what the boy in front of me has been through.

"Let's just go to the bus stop" Louis says walking ahead of me and leaving the house

I groan in frustration and follow him outside. As I step out of the house I see that he's waiting for me. I walk up next to him and we begin walking.

"Decided to wait for me after all?" I ask cheekily

"Didn't know where the bus stop was, that's it" Louis says sassily

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have yelled at you" I say

He nods his head but doesn't say anything. We continue to walk to the bus stop in silence. As soon as we get there people start staring at us. I grab Louis hand as a reflex. I wouldn't have people hurting him again.

"Aw look the queer is here! What? Did daddy take away your car for being queer Tomlinson?" A boy named Ryan called out.

Most people laughed but there were about 3 people who looked at us sympathetically.

"Shut the fuck up Ryan before I break your jaw" I snarl at the boy taking a step forward

"What's this? Harry actually cares about the little queer?" Ryan says crossing his arms

"Seriously Ryan if you know what's good for you, shut the fuck up" I say clenching my jaw

"Really why are you even dating him? I heard it was because he threatened to kill himself if you didn't. Well if you ask me he should kill himself" He says wickedly

That's when all hell broke lose

Sorry for the long wait, I was having authors block and was super busy. So I'm sorry if this chapter isn't as good as the rest.
