Louis sat in his bed, his back pressed against the surface behind him. He couldn't even predict the time of day which it was, time had felt as if it had been frozen ever since he left Harry's two days ago.
Megan had tried to get the boy out of the house. She'd laid out one of his favourite dresses and booked a table at his most favourite restaurant, but Louis would not budge- wouldn't even look towards the girl when giving her his apologies. She couldn't blame Louis though. This whole situation has killed the boy inside.
On the third day of Louis not moving, not eating and only just drinking water, Megan knew she had to do something. She had called Luke around the night before when the two came up with an idea. The next morning she made a phone call to the one person who may be able to help.
"I honestly haven't seen him move unless it was to go to the bathroom or take sip of his water its really worrying me." Megan opened Louis' bedroom door.
"Harry seemed so sweet, I didn't think he'd do anything like this." Jade sighed, her hand placed on her chest as she watched her baby brother through the crack in his door.
"We all thought the same. Including Lou." Megan agreed and Jade turned to her. "I've tried everything to get him to move, but nothing has worked, you are literally the last thing I can think of." Jade smiled sadly and gave a small nod of the head, turning back to Louis' door.
She put her hand against the wood and pushed the door open, letting light from the hallway flood the darkened room. "Lou?" She whispered, taking small steps towards the boy.
Louis looked up, his head moving slowly and he eyes tearing away from the wall opposite him. "Ja-de" His voice sounded broken, a crack in the middle of the short name.
"Hey." Jade let out a saddened smile, taking a seat on the bed as close to her brother as she could. Louis almost immediately fell on the girl, his body being wrapped up by hers. "It'll be okay." She hushed. rubbing small circles on his back through his t-shirt.
"It hurts," Louis sobbed, "so, so much." His tears fell onto the fabric of Jades shirt but she didn't say anything. "I love him so much a-and he just threw it all back in my face. H-e lied to me."
"I know, I know, but listen," Jade pulled back, pacing her hands onto Louis' shoulders, keeping him sat upright and facing her. "I need you to try and calm down a little, okay? I'll run you a bath and whilst you are in it, I'll get Megan to order a take-away and then we can talk about it all. But I really need you to have a bath and eat first, okay?"
After a few seconds of hesitation, Louis finally nodded his head, agreeing that a bath was well needed. So Jade gave him a thankful smile and got up off the bed, holding Louis' hands as he struggled to do the same- his body weak through lack of energy.

Once Louis was in the bath, Jade walked into the kitchen, seeing Megan leaning against the side, a worried look on her face. "He's in the bath at the moment, I told him I'd get you to order take-away for when he's out, I hope that's okay."
"Thank you." Megan's face filled with relief. "And take-away, I'm on it." Megan picked up her phone and car keys, walking out of the room. She walked to the front door, slipping on her shoes and grabbing her coat on the way out. On her way down the stairs she dialled her boyfriends number.
Luke picked up a beat later, "hey babe, how's Lou?" Megan smiled.
"Better," it felt so good to tell him that." Jade came over and he's currently having a bath. I have no idea how she got him to move but she did. I'm just on my way out to get food and was wondering if you wanted me to pick you up? I thought you could come over?"
There was a sound of hesitation on Lukes end. "Uhh, I would love to, but I'm actually on my way out, I can pop around after though?"
Megan pulled open the door to the block of flats as her eyebrows furred. "Luke? What are you doing?" She fiddled with her keys as she made her way towards her car. Something in her made her think of a possible thing Luke could be up to. "You better not be going to-"
"Sorry babe, I've got to go, I'll be round later okay, love you!" Megan cursed the boy in her mind, pressed the red button on her phone and opened her car door.
"That little shit." she muttered, placing her phone and coat of the passenger seat before starting the car and making her way out of the car park.
____________________
When Megan arrived back home, she had a bag of hot Chinese food in her hand and Louis, along with Jade, was sat on the sofa in the living room, with the TV switched on. "Hey." Megan made her presence known, taking off her shoes and coat and then walking towards them, placing the food on the table. She looked towards Louis. "How're you feeling?"
Louis gave her the slightest smile. "Better." His voice was quiet, but if she was being honest, she was just glad he was taking at all.
"Okay, we're getting somewhere then." She smiled at him before smiling over at Jade, "I'll go get some plates and cutlery and then we'll eat, yeah?" with a nod from both sitting on the sofa, Megan went to collect both of the said things.
Halfway through eating, the front door to the flat opened, all three heads looked up to the door, not suspired to see Luke standing there. Jade and Louis looked back round to the TV and their food, but Megan squinted at her boyfriend and she hoped she was the only one to see the dried blood on his knuckles. She leant forward, placing her plate down onto the table, "We'll be right back." She said before standing up and pulling Luke by his arm to the bathroom.

She made sure that the door was closed before saying anything to her boyfriend. "Care to explain?" She spoke with her voice low and just above a whisper.
"I went to see Harry." Luke shrugged his shoulders.
"I've guessed that much Luke, but your hand? Did you expect me not to notice the blood and the fact that its swollen? Because if so, I think you can tell, I noticed." Luke looked down to the floor.
Luke shut the door to his car, pressing the lock button on his keys before looking up at the house in front of him and letting out a large breath. He walked up to the gates, opening to walk through one and closed it behind him. Slowly, he made his way to the front door, looking in the drive again, to see no cars except Harrys.
He waited no longer than two minutes after pressing the door bell before the door opened. "I ju- Luke?" The blonde gave no warning, no hesitation and no sympathy before pushing on Harrys chest and swinging his right fist into the tall boys face. Harry stumbled back, his hands going up to cradle his jaw, looking up from the floor to the slightly shorter boy in his home. "I guess I sort of deserved that." Harry sighed.
"Sort of? Bullshit. You did deserve that, Harry, and there was a line of people wanting to do it. You destroyed my best friend. Crushed his heart, made him not want to eat, move or even speak. Please, tell me how that feels?!" He paused, but didn't give enough time for Harry to speak back. "Shit. That's how it feels to be watching and unable to do anything to help. He loves you so much and you threw it all away for someone else who would never be able to give you what that precious boy could have!"
Harry looked down again briefly, "Its awful." he looked back up, tears streaming. "Its unbearable, I don't know how to even put into words how bad I feel Luke. I love him. I really, really do love him, with more than I could ever show. I fucked up and I know I did. Id give anything in the world to make things right. id give up anything if it meant that Louis would be happy and that none of this would ever had happened. But I cant change it, no matter what I do, I cant go back in time and stop this from happening. And it kills me."
Luke scoffed. "If you are expecting sympathy, you can think again or look for someone else because you're not getting it from me."
Harry shook his head, "I'm not. I don't deserve it, I know that. But I want you to know, for Lou to know, I never wanted this. I was drunk, I cant even remember anything from that night, I woke up in a bed with a note beside me and a missed call from an unknown number. Ever since I've had calls from a girl who claimed to be the girl I slept with. But I cant tell you the truth, because not even I know it. Whatever it was, its cost me the best thing that's ever happened to me and ill never forgive myself for it."
Luke looked over at Harry, scanning his body language and noting how it was similar to Louis'. How he looked like he really had just given up. "Why didn't you block the number? Call the police for harassment? Why didn't you stop her? Just tell Louis the truth?"
Harry sighed, sitting down on the hallway floor, he back pressed to the bottom stair. " I was scared, terrified I'd loose him. She claimed that if I blocked her she would tell Louis everything and the same with the police, she knew where I lived and I couldn't risk that. And with telling Louis- it was so early on in the relationship and with him already finding it hard to trust people, I knew it would end things straight away and I really liked him and didn't want to screw things up when I knew they could be great."
Lukes shoulder relaxed slightly, and he suddenly realised the stinging pain in his hand. "I think the thing that has crushed Louis the most out of all of this is who you slept with. A woman. That was his biggest fear you know? To be left for someone of the opposite gender. He was always scared that he'd fall in love with someone who just didn't find him to be enough. "
Harry didn't think it was possible for his heart to break any more. "He was more than enough. I wanted him to be to be treated as if he was my own personal treasure. I never thought it was possible to love someone so much, to hurt for someone so much in such a little amount of time. But Louis was always enough for me. I didn't want anything more than just him."
"But he doesn't know that. And with this all happening, if you don't try hard enough, I don't think he ever will. Because you're the only one who can tell him that and at this moment in time, he doesn't even want to see your face never mind hear you out."
And with that, Luke left the Styles household, closing the front door behind him.
Harry stayed sat on the floor, his eyes scanning the floor for nothing, before his head shot up. He had a plan.
(Words 2174) I really struggled to find an end point for this chapter so I'm really sorry if it seemed rushed or not amazing, i might come back and change it a little but for now, this will do.

The Triumphs and Tribulations of Kai Jameson
Kai Jameson is an average everyday young man. He still lives at home with his parents after having just graduated from college. He loves playing video games and his job at the local Buy More is tolerable. Of course that all changes the moment the system arrives and the Earth is connected to the Nexus. Turns out Kai was trapped in time for about eighteen months while the people already here got a headstart on him. He lucks into being rescued by some people from a town called Donnyton and learns that if he wants to survive in this New Earth he'll have to work harder than ever before. The rewards are worth it. This is Kai's story, the moments of his triumphs, and the moments when he feels that things couldn't possibly be worse. Thanks to puddles4263 and his story The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound for the inspiration on the world this is set in. If you have never read that I highly recommend it, and if you have read it and enjoyed that story then I hope you'll enjoy mine as well. This is the first story I'm ever putting out for public consumption so reader beware on that. Any constructive criticism is always appreciated, simply leaving a half star review tells me that you're a moron who doesn't know how to use words. I'm constantly trying to improve my writing and feedback and criticism on what works and what doesn't is the only way to do that at the point I feel I am at. Last, I just marked all the content warnings because you never know where a story will take you and I don't want to exclude anything (though there will never be a harem). I am going to release 1-2 chapters per week on Fridays. Thanks and enjoy.
