“Would you ever,” Louis mumbled against his skin. His lips moved higher, brushing Harry’s ear, his body grew warm with the feeling. Louis smiled against his skin as he spoke again, “Would you allow me to court you, if I could?” “Is there a way?” Harry asked hopefully. Louis pulled back slightly and Harry’s head dropped as his eyes bore into his unwavering gaze, their breaths caught as the unanswered questions, a lingering of hope left them in the moment. “No,” he finally spoke and Harry nodded but didn’t move his eyes from him. “But if there was,” he urged. “If there was, would you allow it?” “Yes,” Harry responded without hesitation. A smile grew to his face and Harry reached his hand forward, giving his knee a gentle squeeze, “In fact, I would be most upset if you hadn’t.” “With you darling,” Louis whispered. “With you, the joy of your presence vastly outweighs the fear of rejection... you, my Harry, are always worth the risk.” “And you, my Louis,” Harry chuckled as he leaned towards him. “Are always worth the wait.”
