Chapter 4
The doctor opens the door to Louis's room and takes a step back so that the boys can come throw. Then he closes the door, leaves and lets them be alone.
They all walk up and stand around the bed, except for Harry. He sits himself down on a chair next to the bed. The boys look at Louis with happy and confused eyes, except for Harry. He just looks down. A little tear of joy and sadness runs down his cheek, but he quickly wipes it away before anyone can see it. Louis looks at them with sad and sorry eyes. He didn't want for it to happen, it just did. For a while nobody says anything. Everybody wants to say something but don't.
After a long while of silence Louis opens his mouth, but then closes it again. He didn't know the answer to the question they were all dying to ask. Why? Then Niall breaks the silence.
"So Lou how you feeling?" he says with a big smile on his face but worried eyes.
"Feeling a lot better, thanks" Louis says to Niall with a smile. He was happy that Niall broke the silence. Nobody says anything.
"The doctor says we have to keep you away from sharp objects for a while." Liam says without looking a Louis. He didn't know why he said it. Louis was looking at Liam with eyes it was more like starring. Confused. Was that what was going on in their minds?
"I'm sorry, I really am" Louis starts quietly. Harrys head shoots up as Louis says this. Did harry tell Louis about his dream? No? He wouldn't. Not to save himself, he wouldn't.
"I just …" Louis continues.
"I was just lost." Louis pauses, and looks down at his hands. The other boys wait for the rest of the expiation. But nothing comes. Harry was still starring at Louis confused. All the other boys were to, but not quite the same way that Harry was. There was another long silence before Louis starts again.
"You know Eleanor broke up with me yesterday" Louis smiles a bit but quickly washes it way again.
"She said I was useless and so unserious." Louis carries on
"And that I had been spending so much time with you guys and no time with her." Louis looks down at his hands, playing with a bit of the bed covers. And smiling a half smile with his mouth shut. All the boys come a bit closer to Louis and start saying stuff like
"It's okay, it was her loss." And
"There are other fish in the sea." And stuff like that. Expect for Harry. He had sat himself down again and put his head in his hands, looking down at his feet. Louis was not really listing to what the others were saying. He didn't really care much. He was mostly looking a bit over at Harry. Why Harry upset? Why would he be? Was the only thing Louis was caring about at this moment.
When the boys stop trying to make him feel better there seemed to be better air in the room.
"It was not because of her I-" he didn't finish his sentence, and just looked straight at the white wall.
"Oh and sorry guys that we missed the rehearsal because of me." Louis said while looking from boy to boy, with a sorry face.
"It's fine, don't worry about it." Zayn said while smiling at Louis. After a moment of silence the doctor comes back in and says that there time is over and that both Harry and Louis should get some sleep. The doctor tells Harry that they could push an extra bed into the same room as Louis or he could get his own. Harry politely says that if it wasn't too difficult if they could push the bed into the room. The doctor shakes his head and says that they do it all the time and that there's no problem. While the doctor goes out to get the bed the boys say there good byes and leave.
Harry and Louis just lay there on each there bed in silence, both just looking up at the ceiling. Harry broke the silence with a small voice.
"Please tell me Lou. Tell me every little detail. Please" harry turned his head to look at Louis. And Louis turned his head to look at Harry. Louis sighed, and looked up again loosing eyes contact.
