Chasing the Clouds.

Harry’s legs kept accidently bumping and brushing against Louis’. It was sort of a given, considering Harry was already a couple inches or so taller than him, the young man was already so tall for his age and they were seated in a booth at a little restaurant. In light of this, every time his legs did brush against Louis’ legs, the curly-haired young man stammered an apology and his cheeks flushed.

“Sorry… My legs are long.”

“You’re all right, Harry.”

“You-erm, you sure?”

Louis nodded; he stretched one of his legs out to lightly bump the toe of his vans shoe against Harry’s shin. “There, even.” Louis stated, grinning. Harry blushed, not saying anything.

“Have you any clue what you’re ordering, babe?”

“Not too sure… The vegetarian burgers look really good…” He said, trying very hard not to blush when Louis’ vans rested against Harry’s boots. Louis was trying not to smirk at Harry’s reactions to touches as innocent as these.

“Yeah, they’re pretty good.”

Harry nodded.

“Which one do you want?”

“Th-this one.”

Louis frowned at picture of the small “value” burger that Harry’s long index finger pointed at. Harry looked nervous, he was squirming a little and biting his bottom lip.

“Hey. Order whatever you want. Money isn’t a issue-“

“But…But-“

“Shh- it’s okay. I’m friends with the owner, so we’re getting a discount, plus I’ve got plenty of money.”

Harry still looked apprehensive.

“You can get whatever you want. I’ll get you ice-cream, like I promised, too.” Louis said in a soft and comforting tone. If he really wanted to, he could use his powers as a Cambion to get Harry to agree, but he’d never do that to Harry. Not even if it meant saving the whole world and every miserable soul within it.
Harry deserved free will, to make his own choices.

And Louis was selfish. If he had to decide between saving Harry and the world, it would be Harry- every single time.

“Well… Okay.” Harry said, nodding.

“Good.” Louis said giving him a gentle smile.

“I eat a lot, though. So, don’t get mad.”

Harry knew he wasn’t supposed to trust a stranger, as well as he certainly shouldn’t be dining with one. But, Louis was special. His smiles and the way his eyes gleamed and the corner of them crinkled when he smiled were beautiful.

Louis chuckled at Harry’s comment and Harry felt his heart thump. Louis made his face feel warm, his chest tighten a little and his heart beat faster too. Harry always liked looking at auras, but Louis’ was something to behold. It was a masterpiece. A swirl of every single color and it flared mostly light pinks and reds currently.

A waitress appeared.

“Hello, are you ready to order now?”

“Yes.” Harry and Louis answered at the same time.

Louis arched an eyebrow and Harry blushed again.

“Copying me there, love?”

Harry hid face with his hands.

Louis laughed and gently grabbed his hands. “Don’t hide your pretty face, Harry.” He murmured as he very carefully placed Harry’s hands on the table, after giving them a gentle squeeze.

Harry’s eyes were wide, the same flush tinting his cheeks, his lips parted slightly. He nodded quickly, feeling his hands tingling from where Louis had held and squeezed them.

The waitress smiled. “You and your boyfriend are so cute.” She said to Louis.

Louis thanked her and grinned, before ordering.

“Uh, yes to the garlic, red peppers, unions and jalapeños. No bell peppers, though.”

“All right. And you, love?” She said, turning to look at Harry.

Harry quickly picked out his order- a large burger, fries, a milkshake and a side of union rings. Louis didn’t look at him oddly; in fact he was nodding lightly as if in agreement. The waitress nodded, scribbling his order down on a little note pad and left them with a polite smile.

“Oh!” Harry exclaimed suddenly.

“What is it?”

“I-I have to call someone… I left my phone in the dorm.”

“Use mine.” Louis offered, reaching into his pocket, pulling out his iPhone and passing it to Harry. Harry thanked him, feeling sheepish, as this is the fourth or so time that Louis’ had to help him. He then dialed the number.

“Hello?” A familiar voice said, picking the phone up after three rings.

“Liam!”

“Harry? Oh, thank goodness. Are you all right?”

“Yes-”

“Where are you?”

“I was in the hospital-“

“Oh, Harry. Are you okay? Are you seriously injured?”

“N-no.”

“Where are you?” Liam repeated.

“Umm, I was having a panic attack and a man came and helped me, he took me to the hospital for these scratches I got on my arm. Plus, he’s brought me for dinner to cheer me up.”

“You just went with him?”

“Yes-“

“Harry!”

“Liam, he’s not bad-“

“How do you know? He’s a stranger. He could be dangerous, Harry. Do you even know his name?”

Harry felt a rush of anger.

“His aura showed me he was good.”

“Oh, his aura.” Liam’s tone was mocking almost.

“He’s not dangerous and I’m not a child. I can take care of myself. And for the record, his name is Louis.”

Liam sucked in a breath.

“Li?”

“Get out of there and wait for me. Tell me where you are.”

“No.”

“Harry.” Liam said in a warning tone.

“Don’t you ‘Harry’ me! I’ll come home when I feel like it.” Harry interjected harshly.

“Harry.” Liam sounded appalled at the young man’s angry tone.

“What, Li?” Harry asked, rolling his eyes.

“You’re in danger-“

“I was in danger when your friend Zayn attacked me.” Harry snapped and ignored Liam’s exclamations as he ended the call. He felt the twisting feeling in his gut, his body was warm and he was scowling. Harry was angry.


Louis was livid. He told Zayn to give in, to feed. Zayn attacked Harry- his Harry. He blamed himself.

“You all right, babe?” Louis asked as Harry handed him his phone.

“No.”

“Was that your boyfriend?” He asked.

Harry looked disgusted. “No. He’s like my brother.” He stated, biting his lip as he tried to calm down.

“Ah. Was he worried?”

“Yes.”

“Go easy on him. He’s just concerned. I’d be too.”

Harry frowned but nodded.

Just then, the waitress came with their food. “Enjoy! And get me if you need anything.” She said cheerily. They nodded politely in response and Louis said, “okay” while Harry thanked her.

After a few moments, of quiet eating Louis paused.

“Where do you want to go after this?”

Harry grabbed a napkin to clean a little ketchup that lingered on the corner of his mouth. “Ummm…” he murmured, thinking. He took quite a while doing so, mumbling little noises such as “umm” and ”erm”.

Louis didn’t pressure him and let him think. Had Harry been anyone else, Louis would’ve snapped at him or her to spit it out. Howevver, since he was Harry, Louis patiently waited.

“Anywhere.”

“Not home?”

Harry shook his head.

“S’not safe.” He replied.

Louis nodded.

“Where to then?”

“Dunno.”

“Where’s the furthest you’ve been from Cheshire?”

“Uhhmm. Not too far. Doncaster, perhaps.”

“Ever seen the ocean?”

Harry shook his head.

“No?”

“Never got the chance.”

“You trust me, Harry?”

“You haven’t given me a reason not to, Louis.”

“I’ll take you to Brighton if you’d like.”

“Right now?”

“Yes, right now- if you’d like that, is. We could go after you finish your food. We’ll take another taxi to go to mine and get my car. You can nap in it while I drive. And we’ll take a stroll ‘round when you wake.”

Harry’s green eyes were gleaming and he was nodding.

“I’d love to.” He replied.

Louis smiled.

He knew that Harry was truly his old lover, there wasn’t a single doubt in his mind. Now, he hoped that taking him to the place where they first met might jog a few memories- the very same place where they shared their first kisses. Where Harry lay underneath him, his heat cycle overtaking him with lust.

It may have only been because Louis was the only living creature for miles, close enough to angel, human, whatever that could have sated him. Harry had been crying, he had heard of the heats, but this was his first. And Harry knew Louis had owed him for saving his life, also that he wouldn’t refuse him.

So, the young angel begged the cambion to take him, ease his pain... As ignoring one’s heat often brought discomfort-

“Louis.”

“Hmm?” Louis said, snatched away from his thoughts just as he tried to remember what his lover’s sweet sighs, whimpers, and moans of pleasure sounded like.

“I’m done. I just asked the waitress for a takeaway box.”

“Ah, okay.”

“Thank you so much, you’re incredibly kind.”

Only to you, only you showed me kindness. You taught me how to be this way. So, only you were ever deserving of kindness.

Louis smiled.

“It’s the least I could do.”

“What d’you mean?”

“I just found you so alone and scared… and you reminded me of someone I loved. Someone I lost.”

“I’m so sorry.”

“It’s fine. No need to apologize.”

“Well, they’re always with you. It’s like they’ve never left. They’re always going to be by your side. Not matter what. And here too-” Harry pointed his index finger to his own chest. “Always in your heart.”

“Very true. You’re wise, Harry.”

“Thank you.” Harry replied, blushing.

“I shall never leave you.”

“I cannot believe that.”

“Why not?”

“You are half demon.”

“So?”

“They all lie. Why not you too-“

“Nothing will come between you and I.”

“How d’you know?”

“Because, I’m always here.” Louis said gently, taking Harry’s hand and making him stretch out his index finger before pointing it to his own chest. Harry looked at him, perplexed.
“Always in your heart.”

Louis guided Harry’s hand to point at his chest now.

“And you-“

“Louis?“

“Shh, little love." Louis shushed, pressing a kiss right on Harry's collarbone, making the young angel sigh." You are always in my heart.”

Notes

(Warning: Do NOT steal my fic. I worked hard on coming up with it and writing it. If my story gets stolen, I will stop writing it.)

Please comment and rate! It'll make me update faster.

Louis and Harry had a little date and made some plans! Larry fluff was fun to write. This is a little filler, I suppose. I would've updated yesterday, but I had some wifi issues.

Next chapter'll have Liam and the others!

Anyways, hope you liked it. Thank you for reading.

Lots of Love!
