Louis: Kidnapping (5)

The next morning

Harry POV

Louis was knocked out until the next morning. The doctor was right in terms that Louis was very confused. He didn't know who I was or who the boys were or what was going on. I felt so bad for him and did my best to comfort him but the psychologist that came to assess Louis told me to resist the urge to comfort him as he is not in the best state of mind. He told me and the boys that Ketamine that was still in his system as of last night, mixed with some of the pain meds made Louis' state of mind a lot worse than what it was. He was hoping that he would be better this morning and hopefully come to his senses.

I stayed overnight with him, allowing Niall and Liam to go home. I had called my mum and Louis' mum and dad and they told me that they would be down in the next few days. I woke up early that morning and was super tired, still anxiously waiting for Louis to wake up.

Come on Lou I thought to myself when a nurse walked in. She had multiple things in her hands and even more in her pockets. She placed them on the table and Louis stirred slightly, giving me a glimpse of hope.

"Lou?" I grabbed his hand, but then retracted it, remembering the psychologist's words. Then the nurse spoke up.

"It's normal for him to stir gently as he wakes. I'm going to start to change his meds now." I nodded as the nurse began her work. I noticed Louis' eyes start to flutter then open, looking at the nurse.

"Oh my! He's awake. Can you get the doctor?" I nodded and quickly ran to the hallway, calling for the doctor.

I came back into the room, the doctor following close behind. Then he approached Louis' side as I was pulled out of the room by another nurse. I tried escaping her grasp, but she was persistent.

"Sir you have to let them work. You can watch from the doorway." I stayed silent but obeyed as I watched Louis wake. He started to pull away from the doctor and I couldn't help myself. I ran back into the room and grabbed Louis' hand who was thrashing around, yelling at the people around him.

"Get off of me! Where's Harry? Please I need him!" He was crying now and I grabbed his hand. He pushed the doctor away and I took his place.

"Louis! It's me. Stop." He pushed me back before he realized it was me. I could tell he was in pain from the way his face was scrunched up. "It's okay. Just breathe and let them work."

The nurse went to inject some meds into his IV, but before she could Louis took notice and immediately pulled his hand away.

"No! I don't want any more of that stuff. I just- Ow!" He pulled his hand to his stomach and began to sit up, but I pushed him down before he had the chance.

"Louis you have to let them help you. They just want to help."

"No! Not after what they did to me!" I was confused, but realized that Louis may be having a PTSD episode from what happened during the kidnapping.

"Can we get a minute alone?" The doctors looked at me with a skeptical look. So I plead. "Please!"

"You can have a few minutes, but we will be back. Press the button on the wall if you need anything." They all left shutting the door behind them, leaving Louis and Harry alone.

"Harry! What's going on? Where am I? What happened?" He pleaded.

"Shhh. It's okay. Just breathe. What do you last remember?" I grabbed his hand, trying my best to comfort him.

"I-I was hit, then thrown on the g-ground. There were voices outside and he grabbed me by the waist, pressing on my stomach. He p-pulled out his knife and put it to my throat. My ankle was killing me as he forced me to stand on it. It's all a blur and then there was a sharp pain across my abdomen and then everything went black." He was crying, remembering all the bad memories.

"Do you remember seeing me there?"

He was silent for a minute and then his eyes widened.

"Y-you w-were there. I c-could hear your voice, but I c-couldn't see you. I felt you hold me, but I c-can't remember anything after that." He put his head in his hands and was sobbing. "I just don't want to remember. Please don't make me."

"It's okay. Come here darling." I pulled him into a hug, but he winced in pain pushing me back.

"Ow ow ow. Let go please."

"I'm sorry darling. Can I get the nurse to give you some pain meds?"

"Just the nurse! And no needles. I can't deal with that."

"Okay." I went to the hallway retrieving the nurse, explaining how scared he was, but she reassured me that she has handled it before.

"Hi Louis. I'm nurse Eliana, but you can call me Ellie. I'm just here to change your fluids and give you some pain meds, okay?" Louis nodded and looked towards me with sad eyes and my heart broke.

"I'll be right here. It's okay." I put my hand on his shoulder as the nurse needed to access his IV on his left hand and his right hand was in a cast.

"I'm just going to disconnect this bag of fluids and replace it. Just hold still and I'll be really quick." Ellie quickly disconnected his IV and replaced it with a new one, rehanging his fluids. "I have pain meds for you." She pulled out a syringe, and Louis eyed the needle, pulling his hand away and clutching closer to me.

"It's okay, she's not going to hurt you."

"It's just going into your IV, don't worry. There are no shots. May I?" Louis nodded and placed his hand back. "How about you look at Harry?" She suggested.

The nurse finished up and left, leaving Louis and Harry alone once again.

"Hey the doctor needs to check on your injuries. And there is another doctor that wants to talk about what happened. Can you let them help you?" Louis nodded once again and then I left to get the two doctors. They checked all of Louis' injuries and then the other sat down to talk to Louis. He got Louis to open up about what happened. He talked about everything, including his beatings and everything that happened sexually. Louis was shaking during the whole thing, never letting go of my hand. The doctor left after about 30 minutes.

"Are you okay?" I asked after a few minutes of silence. Louis shook his head and I pulled him into a gentle hug, careful not to jostle him too much. "Do you want to talk about it?"

"It's just-" He sighed. "I was so scared. I-I almost gave up in the last few days cause I couldn't last. The pain was unbearable. They were awful and I just was so scared. I only thought about you and how worried you must have been. That's what kept me sane."

"Oh darling. I'm sorry you went through that." We hugged and kissed. I could then tell that Louis was desperately trying to keep his eyes open. "You must be exhausted darling. Try to sleep for me, okay?"

Louis nodded and quickly drifted off to sleep as his pain meds started to kick in. Liam and Niall came in a few minutes later and we talked in the corner, careful not to wake him. He woke up a few more times during the day, just to get pain meds and dressings changed. The pain meds pretty much knocked him out, so he slept on and off for the next few days, Harry never leaving his side.
