Niall moved his lips against Harry's as he wrapped his arms around Harry's neck to pull him closer and play with his hair. Harry didn't protest and lay down, their lips not detaching as he wrapped his arms around Niall's waist to pull him impossibly closer. Niall cherished this moment and the feeling of Harry's lips against his. The kiss turned heated quickly and Harry pulled Niall's top off, their breaths heavy as they parted for the mere seconds. He pushed Niall back to lie down and hovered over him, kissing down his neck. They reattached their lips and Niall moaned as Harry shoved his tongue through Niall's lips. Harry's phone began to ring and he pulled away, staring at Niall. Regret, panic and guilt washed over him and he quickly moved to the other side of the bed.

"H-Harry?" Harry shook his head and left the room, closing the door and leaning against the wall, answering his phone.

"Styles". He closed his eyes and rested his head back.

"Harry it's Josh". Harry hummed. "Harry...they found another body..and they think it was Niall".

"It couldn't be him Josh". Harry sighed and looked to the closed door.

"How do you know?"

"Because he was with me Josh. I'll be there in ten minutes". Harry hung up and walked out to the lounge room. "I have to go back to the office. Don't do or say anything to him I swear to god if you do.." Harry let out a frustrated breath as Daniel stared at him. He felt so guilty right now. He just cheated on his boyfriend. "Just don't go anywhere near him. It's just for tonight". His phone rang again as he began to drive. "What's up Josh?"

"Don't come to the office, come to the park. It's around the corner". Harry hung up and headed to the park, knowing full well that this would be where the body was found. Yellow police lines were boxed around the small, lifeless body, several people surrounding the area as they waited for the chief of police. Harry went under the line, walking over to the body and kneeling down. Josh looked at the boy then Harry with worry.

"You were with Niall that whole time then?" Harry nodded. "So he's really not the guy". Harry examined the small, bashed body with the open wounds that were the obvious cause of death. "He's gotten angry now". Harry nodded. The others weren't as terrible as this one. They weren't as injured and torn.

"Maybe this kid put up a fight and he didn't like that. Let's search the area yeah?" Josh nodded and they both stood, walking around the park to find any trace of evidence. The examiners tried to find any shred of DNA on the boy as Harry walked around the park with his torch. He could hear small whimpers and a gasp as he got closer to a large tree, grabbing his gun and quietly walking over to see a small boy, fear written over him and tears running down his face.

"P-please d-d-don't hurt m-me". Harry lowered his gun and frowned.

"I'm not going to hurt you mate. I'm officer Styles". Harry carefully walked over to him and kneeled down.

"Y-you're the p-police?" Harry nodded and smiled warmly.

"Yeah. Why are you out here this late?" He pushed his small brown fringe out of his eyes and looked up to Harry.

"I-I'm scared".

"What's your name?"

"B-Ben".

"Okay Ben, do you want to come with me back to the station and we'll call your mum?" Ben nodded his head vigorously, his brown eyes still glazed over with fear. Harry look the small boy under his arm and tried to warm him up as they walked over to Josh.

"Who's this?" Josh frowned.

"This is Ben. I found him behind a tree. I'm going to take him back to the station and try find his parents. Will you be okay?" Josh nodded.

"Yeah okay. Go ahead". Harry took Ben to his car and began to drive.

"So, why are you out this late Ben?"

"I...me and my brother were playing tiggy and I was it" Harry frowned.

"So, where's your brother?"

"He was far away, he was so fast. I was getting tired and then I hear he scream..a-and I hide behind the tree and a man grabbed Harry and he t-tried to get away from the man b-but the man got a k-knife and-" Harry parked in the car park and looked to Ben with shock. "He tried to tough Harry and Harry kept on trying to get away t-then the man hurt him. He put the knife in Harry a lot and Harry stopped screaming and the man ran away".

"Ben, did you see the man?" He nodded and Harry took him into the building. Harry's phone vibrated and he opened the message from Daniel.

Please come home? I'm sorry xx

Harry sighed and walked Ben over to Caroline.

"I'm going to leave you with Officer June and you're going to tell her everything you told me okay? She's a nice lady. I need to go home now".

"O-okay Mr". Harry felt it was best he didn't tell Ben his name, seeing as Ben's younger brother Harry had just died. He smiled at Ben and wrote down his number on a piece of paper, handing it to him.

"If you need anything, just give me a call". Ben nodded and smiled to Harry.

Niall was aggressively lifted on his hands and knees vis his ribcage and Daniel shoved his length into Niall without any prep or hesitation and began to thrust quickly. Niall cried in pain and wanted to scream out but not a sound left his lips as he weakened and wanted to collapse onto the bed. Daniel grabbed his hips and pushed them into Niall hard, surly making finger shaped bruises appear, as he went harder, grunting.

"Fuck you're tight!" Niall whimpered and let more tears drop. "What is even with your disgusting back?" Daniel aggressively pumped Niall's length and continued to pull at it as Niall's knees and arms shook. "Fuck yes!" Daniel thrusted harder and faster as he came and pulled out of Niall quickly, Niall's knees and arms giving way as he collapsed. Daniel pushed him to lie on his back.

"If you tell anyone about this, I wont hesitate to kill you...or Harry. Don't test me". Daniel ran his fingers down Niall's tear stained cheek and smiled, walking out of the room with his clothes. Niall felt filthy and in pain. He sobbed and clenched the sheets through his fingers as a sharp pain shot up his backside and Daniel's cum ran down his legs. He limped down the hall to the bathroom and turned the shower on, stepping in to wash away the dirty, sticky feeling. He didn't stop crying as the previous hour ran through his head over and over. He was hurt when Harry walked away. He was raped by Harry's boyfriend. He couldn't deal with it. Once showered and dried, he got dressed in the room and curled up on the bed.

Harry walked in and Daniel rushed to him, wrapping his arms around Harry tightly. Harry could tell Daniel smelt different but he couldn't pin point it.

"I'm sorry Harry".

"Has Niall come out of the room?" Daniel shook his head.

"What happened?" Daniel asked curiously.

"There was another body". Harry stated sadly.

"Oh". Harry walked to the kitchen with Daniel following.

"Yeah. But this time there's a witness. Poor kid".

"A witness? Did they see anything?"

"Yeah he did. He was terrified. But then you texted me so I left him with Caroline". Daniel nodded. Harry walked towards the front door as he heard footsteps and frowned as he saw Niall standing with his hand on the handle. "Niall? Where are you going?" Niall didn't look away from the door and sighed in defeat.

"I-I'm going home". Harry's frown deepened.

"What? Why? Niall it's freezing outside! I thought we went over this". Niall looked down to the ground.

"I should g-go home".

"Niall why do you keep saying that? It's me! Why are you so uncomfortable and nervous?" Niall shrugged and Harry grabbed Niall's wrist, pulling him to the spare room.

"N-no! H-Harry please" Harry ignored Niall's pleading and pulled him into the room, frowning as he saw the overly messed up sheets.

"I'm sorry about earlier Niall. I had to go to work". Harry walked over to the bed and pulled the covers back, blood drops on the sheets making Harry gasp. "Niall what happened?"

"Harry please". Niall whimpered nervously.

"Did Daniel do something to you?" Niall said nothing and averted his gaze from Harry which gave Harry the answer. He rushed out the room. "Daniel!" He saw the front door open and heard tires skid on the road. Harry rushed out to see Daniel speeding away from the house. Harry didn't bother to go after him and closed the door, walking over to Niall and pulling him into a tight hug. "I'm so sorry baby. I'm so so sorry".

"Harry" Harry kissed Niall's neck softly. "I still love you"

"I know baby" Harry got Niall a coat and put it on him, locking up the house and pulling Niall to the car. "I want to go back to the office but I'm not going to leave you alone so you're coming with me". As Harry drove, he intertwined his fingers with Niall's and Niall couldn't help but smile down at their joined hands. This is exactly what he's longed for all of the three years they were apart. He's afraid to let Harry go. "C'mon Niall. Let's go inside". Harry got out the car and as soon as Niall was by his side their hands were together again.

"Harry! Oh thank god I've been so worried about you!" Harry frowned and Josh raised an eyebrow at their hands.

"Why is that?" Harry asked in confusion.

"Harry...Ben wanted to see your office...so I took him in there and he suddenly looked terrified. I asked him why and he pointed to the photo of you and Daniel. He said Daniel was the man who hurt his brother". Harry's eyes widened.

"What!? There must be some sort of mistake!" Josh shook his head.

"Harry...a-after he did.."

"What?" Harry looked at Niall with concern.

"He t-told me if I tell anyone h-he'd kill us". Niall let a tear drop and Harry pulled Niall into him, hugging him tightly and rubbing soothing circles over his back.

"Josh, he raped Niall and when I found out he sped away. I don't think he'll be coming back either because he knows Ben saw him". Harry whispered in a hushed tone, trying not to make Niall cry harder.

"Shit".

"Mr! You back!" Harry smiled as Ben ran towards him and lifted him up.

"Yep! And I came with my friend too. Ben this is Niall".

"Hi Ben". Niall shyly smiled. Josh gave Harry a 'I need to talk to you' look and Harry nodded.

"I'm going to leave you with Niall for a few minutes okay? Why don't you tell Niall what toys you like?" Ben nodded and Harry set him down, walking away with Josh. "What's wrong?"

"We asked Ben what his last name is to find his mum and he told me it was Craft but...come here". Josh led Harry over to the computer and Harry read through the article.

"Tragedy struck as a drunk driver, 35, crashed into a family car, instantly killing David and Kate Craft as they were driving home from a night out with friends.

With major head injuries and open wounds, Kate instantly passed away at the scene and David passed away in the ambulance.

The driver will remain anonymous but will be charged with reckless driving and manslaughter.

Their two boys Ben, 2, and Harry, 4, were sent to an orphanage as they had no other family that could look after them"

Harry looked up at the date and saw it was two years ago.

"So he has no one?" Josh sadly shook his head. "Shit".

"I don't know what to do Harry. His mother and father passed away two years ago and he just witnessed his brother get murdered. No four year old deserves this". Harry nodded and looked back to Ben sadly. He smiled as he saw Niall admiring Ben as he explained something. "And what about Daniel? How are we going to find him now?" Before Harry could say anything else, the doors opened and Daniel was pushed in with his hands behind his back, smirking as his gaze met Harry. Niall and Ben looked at Daniel with fear as he was led into a dirty cell and sat on the wooden bench. Harry took a deep breath and walked over to the cell.

"Hi babe". Daniel smirked and winked at Harry.

"How could you do this?" Daniel rolled his eyes.

"Why not?" Harry just looked at Daniel with wide eyes.

"Was any of it real?" Daniel's smirk faded. "Did you really love me? Or were you just using me?" Daniel shook his head.

"It wasn't like that. I did love you. I do love you".

"Then why? Why did you do this?"

"I just...I hate them! They're such a pain! I fucking hate kids! It's all about them! What about us? Kids aren't that fucking special!"

"You killed them!"

"I couldn't just let them live Harry. They think they rule the world!"

"You killed a six year old boy today! He has a brother who was watching you kill him. He now has literally no one! He's an orphan!" Daniel looked down at his hands.

"I lost control. I just...I hate them".

"Niall doesn't even do what you did!" Daniel frowned.

"Why are you bringing him into this?"

"He has problems where he gets scared or frustrated. He's my ex boyfriend. But he would never hurt someone".

"So what? I'm not that freak!" Harry frowned.

"He's not a freak"

"Oh please Harry!" Daniel scoffed.

"If anyone is the freak, it's you. I hope you rot in jail Daniel. You deserve what's coming for you". Harry turned and walked away, over to Niall who was holding Ben. Niall watched Harry with concern.

"You okay?" Harry pulled a small smile and nodded.

"Yeah".

"You sure?" Harry nodded and pulled Niall aside.

"What would you think of taking Ben home with us?" Niall frowned.

"Um, what?"

"Would you like to buy a house with me?" Niall's frown deepened.

"I don't understand". Harry let out a frustrated breath.

"Niall goddamn Horan! I'm still in love with you and I want to buy a house with you and we can grow old together and I'm asking you if you want to take Ben home with us".

"But what about Dani-"

"Forget about that asshole! Niall I'm trying to tell you that I love you".

"Harry..." Harry's smile faded. "You haven't even broken up with him officially! I can't just move in with you and get a kid when you just got out of who knows how long of a relationship! I'm going to ring Greg and tell him to pick me up. Here's my number". Niall handed Harry a piece of paper. "In a few weeks, just text or call me. Just take some time to think about things". As much as Niall didn't want to do this, he couldn't rush into things that fast. Harry needs time and Niall knew that but he also knew that this wasn't forever. Just a few weeks for Harry to sort himself out and maybe they would be together again. "I do love you Harry. I haven't stopped loving you since the say I told you to leave. I haven't even tried to find another boy and I haven't even thought about another boy. You're all I ever think about, you're all that I can think about. I've been a mess this past three years Harry. I started to really scare Greg and Theo. Making you leave that day was the worst mistake I have ever made. I'm so sorry. I thought I was doing what's best for you. I love you Harry. I love you so much. But I need you to take a few weeks to think about everything. Greg still lives at the same house. I've been living with him so if you need me. Ever. And I don't answer your calls or texts just come and see me. I love you, okay?" Harry nodded and Niall kissed him softly. "Bye Ben. Maybe I'll see you again sometime"

"Bye Niall!" Niall left the office and harry stood still, watching him walk away. "So, Mr, is your name Harry?" Harry smiled down at Ben and kneeled down.

"It is. How would you feel about coming home with me?"

"For a sleepover?" Harry chuckled lightly as he looked at Ben's curious brown eyes.

"How about you come and live with me?" Ben's eyes widened.

"Really?" he asked hopefully.

"Yeah. How does that sound?" Ben looked down, unsure.

"Will you hit me?" Harry's eyes widened and he shook his head.

"No! Never!"

"Nancy hit me lots. You won't be like Nancy?" Harry lightly pushed Ben's hair back and smiled slightly.

"I promise I will never ever hurt you".All Harry could think was how coincidental this was. Harry saving a boy from ending up as frightened and scared as Niall was now. He would be saving Ben from the countless years of torture and scars.

"You're a nice man". Harry's smile widened and he nodded.

"Thank you Ben. Let's go and get this sorted yeah?" Ben nodded and Harry walked over to Josh. "I'm gonna go now. Adopting Ben...It just feels right". Harry shrugged and Josh smiled.

"Go ahead. I got this all covered". Harry smiled gratefully and pulled Ben to his car, driving to the orphanage. As soon as Harry walked in with Ben, Nancy scowled and went to grab Ben, not even noticing Harry's presence. Harry quickly pulled Ben behind him and Nancy looked up in shock.

"Hello Nancy. I'm here to adopt Ben".

"Where's Harry?" Ben whimpered at the mention of his older brother.

"He was killed Nancy. Maybe if you took better care of him this wouldn't have happened. Now, I would like to adopt Ben". Nancy looked at Harry in shock. "Are you going to get the papers? I will not let you do to Ben what you did to Niall".

"Niall?"

"Yes. Niall Horan. Surely you remember him? You are the reason hundreds of scars cover his body". Nancy hurried to get papers and put them on the desk.

"Just sign here, and on this page and you can go", Harry quickly signed and told Ben to get his things.

"If you touch Niall again I will get you arrested. Don't think I'm bluffing".

"How are you going to do that?" Nancy smirked.

"I'm the head of the police force. Try me". Harry smirked as Nancy's fell. "Come on Ben. Let's go home". Harry hadn't thought twice about taking Ben home. Ben was a sweet kid. Harry was devastated Niall hadn't instantly said yes but he knew Niall was right. He had to have a few weeks to think about things. He just can't believe Daniel was hurting all those innocent boys right under his nose. And he stupidly enough went home to talk to Daniel about it all. He just felt so stupid and clueless.

"Do we live here?" Ben stared in amazement at the house and Harry nodded.

"Yeah. We will for a little bit but we'll move into a different house as soon as we possibly can, and maybe even with Niall too". Ben took Harry's hand as they made their way into the house.

"I like Niall".

"I like him too". Harry watched Ben in admiration as the four year old explored the house. Soon Harry hoped Niall would be there too and they'd be in a different house, living happily. That's all Harry wanted. Niall was and always has been his one and only. And that will never change.
