"Haz, where are we going? You'renot gonna murder me, right?" Louis asked for the thousandth time.

"Stop all the nagging and whining,Lou. You can be quite impatient, mh?" Harry chuckled fondly.

"Correct. I don't like surprises"Louis kept wailing.

"Why?" Harry hooked, concentratedon his mission.

"Because I don't like the unknown,Haz. Not knowing what's coming my way is terrifying. I prefer to bein control, so I know what will happen when and where and how"Louis explained to him.

For a second, Harry haltered in hissteps. Louis' words had hit him hard. He knew the fear of the unknowncame from his past of abuse. He has never seen it coming and couldn'tcontrol it. He has been powerless. That's why surprises scared him.Harry understood the deeper meaning of Louis' words but chose to staysilent because it looked like Louis didn't mean to hint at that.

"Well, I prefer you being in chargeas well, you must know" Harry decided to say instead.

"Course you do, Princess" Louissnorted amused.

"Princess?" Harry cocked aneyebrow at him bewildered.

"Yes" Louis grinned brightly.

"Why? I don't wear dresses ortiaras. I'm very manly" Harry puffed up to show off.

"Calm down, Tarzan. Of course, youare manly. Very manly, Haz" Louis laughed joyfully.

"Then why would you call meprincess?" Harry squirmed a little bit, the petname kinda affectinghim but he would deny it if you'd ask him.

"Because you are a princess to me.My princess. With your luscious looks, that are growing longer andI'm loving it. Those hypnotising dimples and your pretty face withthose stunning eyes, like emeralds. The total of your magnificentbody and just your whole precious being, Haz. Just like a princess.Special and perfect and beautiful. Precious. You have to be protected24/7 and I'm here to do just that" Louis listed all the reasons forHarry to be a princess.

And if Harry felt like melting righton the spot then no one needed to know that. The love and admirationlacing in Louis' voice made Harry go weak in the knees and all hewanted to do was kiss him senseless for treating Harry like the mostprecious treasure in the universe. His princess.

"Not that you can't protectyourself. Of course, you can. You're a strong and independent young...".

Harry threw himself in Louis' arms,crashing their lips together. A sound of surprise escaped Louis' lipsbut Harry felt him melt into the kiss only a second later. Like everytime they kissed, a fuzzy tingling mixed with a warm and familiarfeeling spread through his whole body. This familiar feeling was hardto put into words for Harry but it felt like home.

"I am your princess, Lou. You aremy prince charming. Or knight in shining armour because princecharming usually doesn't do anything useful apart from looking good.He's mostly useless but you're not. You are my saviour, my protector,my love, my hope, my sadness, my happiness, my everything, Lou"Harry rambled totally out of it and completely gone and in love.

"You are my everything too, Haz"Louis beamed at him with teary eyes, looking unsure for one secondand Harry was wondering why.

"What is it, Lou? What's wrong?"Harry asked directly.

"Nothing, Haz. It's just ..."Louis trailed off, biting his lip nervously. "I just love you sofucking much. It overwhelms me sometimes".

Hearing those words actually leaveLouis' mouth made Harry's heartbeat pick up, his pulse throbbing inhis veins like crazy and he swore he could hear the blood rushing inhis ears. Of course, they had discussed before that their feelingswere mutual and had talked about loving each other or making love orbeing loved but for some reason they hadn't said those three wordsout loud yet. Maybe because they were stupid and awkward. Yeah,definitely. But that's just who they were, right? Stupid and awkward.
