345 Dannys POV
"Danny, calm down, look, lets give it a rest for a few hours. We'll try again later." Harry tried to pull me away but I couldn't! Not while Tom was in there, by himself, so upset and alone, not knowing the truth! His heart was breaking in there, how could I go away? At least Tom wasn't crying anymore, I don't think. "no! I've got to stay! I have to stay here until Tom knows!" I cried, trying to pull away, I couldn't just go away now! "Danny, come on, give him a break. We've been trying to get in for hours. You're losing your voice now, just try and calm down a little." Harry tried, managing to keep hold of me, pulling me away from the door, the door keeping me from my poor lover. The poor lover who thought I was cheating on him, who didn't think he was loved, who was so fragile and in need of my love.
"no! I don't want to! Let me go!" I writhed, never managing to get out of Harrys hold until he let me go on the sofa, forcing me to sit down. "Danny take a minute to breathe, okay? Just breathe, we've been at this for hours, so just calm down before you hurt yourself. We can try again later." Harry reasoned, I forced myself to calm down, trying to breathe and calm down. "fine, but, I hate this! I can't stand it! Toms upstairs, thinking that we're having an affair when we're really not, and he thinks that we don't love him! He thinks that I don't love him, when I love him so much." I whimpered, wanting to cry, I couldn't believe I was stupid enough to do this. I should have stayed at home, I should have just cuddled up to Tom on the floor, and held him until I either fell asleep or forgot about my want to cut and that stupid nightmare!
"Dan, stop scratching, you can't scratch right now." Dougie grabbed my hands, paling terribly. "sorry, just, feel like hell right now." I admitted, dropping my head, knowing I shouldn't be scratching, but I couldn't help it. There were so many emotions running through me, I needed to release some of them, as soon as possible. "just try to breathe, we can sort this, we always do." Harry advised, rubbing my back gently. "but what if it takes a long time? Tom can't be left by himself for too long! He isn't well enough to be left by himself, especially while he's so upset!" I worried, Tom couldn't be left by himself for too long, god knows what he would do! "I'll keep an eye on him, don't worry." Carrie smiled, luckily, I trusted her, so I knew she would keep an eye on her brother and help him out a little.
I couldn't help but worry all night, Tom didn't make an appearance at all, I could hear him moving around, but he never came downstairs. Tom stayed upstairs all night, hiding in his music room and his bedroom, refusing to be around us from what Carrie said. "Carrie, please, go back up there and tell him that he's got it all wrong! We never did anything, explain what happened last night." I pleaded, needing to see Tom so badly. I missed him, even though we didn't hug much anymore, or do anything really, I missed Toms presence, seeing his beautiful face somewhere in the room, even when it was covered in tears and panic. At least then I could hug him, and tell him it was okay, but I couldn't here, not while I was the cause of this problem.
"alright, give me about half an hour." Carrie sighed, going back upstairs again. There was silence for 20 minutes, all of us listening intently, just to hear Tom. Then, finally, Carrie came back down again, looking defeated. "I'm sorry, but Tom is not having any of it. He really doesn't want to talk right now." Carrie leant against the door, she looked so tired. "are you sure? Whats he up too? Is he okay? What is he doing right now?" I asked, needing to know what Tom was doing right now, so I knew how he was coping. "Toms drawing at the moment, he's pretty calm all things considered. Then, you get mentioned, and he looks like he wants to cry. He has a message for you too." Now Carrie looked like she wanted to cry. "what? Whats the message?" I stood up, desperate to know what Tom wanted, but terrified over what to wanted too.
"Tom says to...leave him the hell alone. Don't talk to him, don't touch him, don't do anything to him. He's only seeing you when you have band duties, and only then. Don't try and talk to him about other things either, cause he will just ignore you. While you are in public he'll still act like everythings okay, and that is the only time you're allowed to be a couple, because he does not want to hear your lies every again." And that was the moment the room went black for me.
346 Harrys POV
As soon as Carrie stopped repeated Toms message, Danny passed out, this whole thing getting too much for him, he just collapsed. I barely had time to catch him before he hit the floor. "whoa! Dan don't faint on us!" I managed to get him on the sofa, seeing just how much paler Danny looked, his freckles looked almost black. His face was still contorted with pain, like this was too much for him to handle, so not even passing out was helping him stop thinking about this.
"well, d*mn, what are we going to do?" I sighed, just hearing that message second hand was enough for Danny, what was going to happen when they actually were around each other? I wasn't sure Danny was going to cope if Tom decided to be really mean, or just plain ignored him unless we were in public. "I don't know, but, we'll think of something, we'll get them together again and get everything explained." Carrie encouraged half heartedly, fiddling with her necklace, like she had already given up.
"yeah, hopefully, look, I think its best we take Danny home now. Having us here isn't exactly helping Tom or anyone at the moment. Plus its probably best to put him in his own bed for a while, and keep an eye on him there." I picked Danny up again, so he was cradled in my arms, hopefully in an not too uncomfortable position. "makes sense. I'm going to see if I can get Tom out and see if he'll eat something, or listen to me." Carrie agreed, standing up and seeing us to the door, where we walked in silence down the road to Dannys, where I tucked him into his bed. "I don't want to have to go out tomorrow." Dougie whimpered, falling into my arms, pushing his face into my chest, meaning tomorrows round of interviews. "I know, neither do I. But, hopefully, we can sort this out tomorrow, while we're out, you never know. We could get through this and work it all out tomorrow." I was gripping at straws and I knew it, but it seemed like it helped Dougie a little, which was a help.
"we better. I'm scared, this could ruin everything we've worked for." Dougie whispered, staring at Dannys arm, meaning his healing cuts. There were now scratches on his arms, but nothing too deep, no skin was actually broken, which was a good thing. "well, we'll have to stop it, won't we? We can do that, and anyway, Dannys strong, he'll come to us, I know he will." I managed a smile, rubbing my tiny little boys back. "but what about Tom? Whose going to stop him?" Dougies hands tightened on my shirt. "Carrie, and us. We'll keep him out of trouble during the day while we're with him, and Carrie will keep him safe the rest of the day. Toms strong too, he's been managing perfectly well up until now, he'll carry on doing just as well. We're just in a rough patch, it'll be over before you know it." I squeezed Dougie close, trying to give him the best reassurance I could, hoping it would actually come true.
