I apologize for any mistakes

"Why did you and your ex boyfriend break up?" Harry asked Louis, noticing how his breath hitches.

"It's okay Lou, you don't have to tell me." Harry gives a reassuring smile to Louis.

"Okay thank you." Louis breathes out. He wasn't ready to dive that deep with Harry yet. "When was your last relationship?" Louis asks.

Harry raises his eyebrows and thinks about his last relationship. He didn't want to talk about exes, but since he brought it up first, it was only fair that Louis returned the question.

"My last relationship was five years ago." Louis' eyes widen at Harry's answer. "Yeah, I know. He and I had been dating for three years, we were high school sweet hearts. We liked each other a lot in freshman year of high school, then we dated in sophomore year through senior year. We almost hit four years, but I walked in on him having sex with his dorm buddy. I broke up with him, and I guess I gave up on finding someone after that incident." Harry shrugs.

Louis stares at Harry longingly, before laughing. Harry began to feel insecure, and truly didn't find it funny that someone cheated on him. "I'm sorry, but someone cheated on you?" Louis chuckles.

Harry suddenly doesn't feel insecure anymore, instead he chuckles himself at Louis statement. "I thought that I wasn't going to find someone ever again, so my best friend, Liam, started to set me up for blind dates. My mom was in on it too." Harry further explains.

"Wow. I'm sorry about your ex. How could someone do that to you? You're so sweet, handsome, you're so perfect." Louis says sighing dreamily.

Harry barks out a laugh. "You're funny lovely, but that's not true. I have many flaws. But you're the one whose perfect, you're amazing." He grabs Louis' small hands, looking into his pretty blue eyes.

"But you have it all, I just don't understand." Louis says, tone changing into sadness. Louis couldn't get it through his head that someone cheated on Harry. It surprised him to no end, and maybe it'll always surprise him.

"Some people in this world Lou, are just cruel. They don't care, or have love for other people. They don't have sympathy for others. That's just how people are. People like you and I, are rare." Harry explained to him.

"Well, his name is Jake, he cheated on me so." Louis confesses quietly. He wanted to open up to Harry more, but now wasn't the time.

"Hi dad." A high pitched voice greets just as Harry was about to speak up. The pair look to where Darcy is standing by the kitchen door, her eyes swollen, and her makeup ruined. "I'm sorry."

"Darcy! What the fu-"

Harry squeezes Louis' hand, looking at him with a warning, hoping he'll remember what he said earlier. Louis sighs, motioning Darcy to go over to him. He lets go of Harry's hands to stand up, reaching out for his daughter.

"What's wrong baby girl?" Louis questioned. Darcy puts her face in Louis chest, Louis' chin rests lightly on her wavy hair, caressing it.

"I just want to go home, please." She pleaded. Harry's heart breaks for her, that girl doesn't deserve the hate and pain she is receiving from those assholes at her school.

"Darcy, you have a practice show tonight, you can't skip that. You also have to attend practice before the practice show." Louis informs, looking at the clock near the exit of the bakery.

Darcy pulls away from the embrace, nodding her head, and wiping her tears. "O-Okay." She sighs heavily. "Harry made me feel so much better dad. He saved me." She says pouting a little.

"He did?"

"Yeah. Thank you Harry." Darcy says. She didn't feel comfortable telling her dad what was going on at school, he would go absolutely berserk and worry too much, that was the last thing Darcy wanted.

"Of course dove. You have a show tonight? What do you do?" Harry questions, watching as Louis quietly sighs.

"I'm in color guard. I have a practice show tonight, can you come? I want you to watch my skills!" Darcy says giving Harry a weak smile, despite all the tears she had on her cheeks not too long ago.

"Babes, Harry is working right now, I don't think-"

"No no no, it's fine. My coworker can take over for the rest of the day. What time does it start?" Harry raises his eyebrows, and glances over at the clock.

"It starts at four thirty. So an hour from now." Louis informs the curly haired man. "Are you able to make it?"

"Yeah, I definitely can." Harry nodded. He tried helping his cool on the outside, but on the inside he was giddy, he couldn't believe that Louis' daughter had invited him to an event.

"Okay, four thirty at the school, I will text you the address." Louis stands up, grabbing his keys and phone. "Oh, and don't be late, if you are, don't bother showing up." Louis says sternly.

Louis had to comfort his disappointed daughter when Jake said he would make it to her shows, or her practices, but he never did, and Louis didn't want to go through that again.

Harry nods his head, confused at Louis' demanding tone. "Bye guys, see you later!" He dismisses, watching as they walk out of the door.

"She's cute." Harry turns around, facing Elijah. He squints his eyes at the teenage boy, and shakes his head. "What? She's pretty cute, and she's really sweet!" He says.

"Stay away from her, she doesn't need a boy in her life right now. No more boys, boyfriends. Boys suck." Harry sassed and pushes Elijah back into the kitchen by his shoulders.

"That's cap!" Elijah exclaims.

"The fuck is cap? Either way I don't give a fuck, no boyfriends!" Harry teased him, slapping the back of Elijah's head.

Harry got a hold of Nancy and got her permission for him to leave work early. He went home and got dressed to get ready to attend Darcy's practice show.

All he could think about was Louis, and how everything between them had gotten more chill by the second. He liked the fact that everything came so easy when it comes to Louis. He wasn't afraid to be himself around Louis, and the same went for the older man as well.

*~*

"Darcy you did amazing kiddo!" Harry cheered from afar. He watched Darcy the whole time during her practice, he was amazed by the girl's talent.

Darcy shoots her head up as she heard her name being shouted, once she spots Harry she runs up to him, giving him a hug. "Did you see that? I actually did really good out there!" She giggles breathlessly and shaking Harry's body.

She pulls away, jumping, really excited about how she killed her practice show. Niall and Liam walk up from behind Darcy, their smiles wide. "Darcy, you did great out there, like always." Niall compliments, ruffling Darcy's wavy hair.

As the two of them converse, along with Louis joining in; Liam looks at Harry surprised. "Hey mate. Didn't know you were here." He says.

"I didn't know you were here either. Niall invited you?" Harry asked.

Liam nods. "Yeah he goes to Darcy's shows most of the time. I'm assuming Lou invited you, no?" He smirks. Ever since Harry mentioned Louis for the first time, Liam has made nonstop comments about the both of them.

Harry lays his eyes on Louis, watching him interact with his daughter, Noah, and his best friend, the toddler settled perfectly on his hip. "Yeah he did." Harry responded.

During the show Noah kept glaring at Harry, and said some rude comments Louis scolded him to stop. He didn't listen, but Harry wasn't too bothered by it. He just enjoyed the show, spending time with Louis and Joesph.

"Why did you come here?" Harry snaps out of his trance. Noah was standing in front of him, arms crossed over his chest, and his eyes narrowing. It was pretty obvious that Noah didn't take a liking to Harry, the curly haired man never knew why.

Harry smiles lightly at him. "To support your sister. She was amazing out there!" Harry replies.

"It's my dad's job to come to her shows, not yours." Noah growls. Noah wasn't stupid, he saw how Harry and his dad were flirting, it made him angry for his own reasons, no one had to know.

"I know, but it's okay for me to support my friend's daughter." Harry's eyes wonder up into the pink dust sky, not wanting to speak to Noah anymore.

Harry has tried to be civil with him, but it's not working. Now he's just really starting to piss Harry off, and he can't show him that he's doing it.

"What's going on here? Everything alright?" Louis' soothing voice chimes in.

"Yep." Harry nodded his head, arms crossing over his buff chest. "I gotta go Lou. It's getting late." Harry told him.

Louis furrows his eyebrows. "We're going to go to get dinner, want to come with us?" Louis invites, silently giving Harry puppy dog eyes.

Harry stares at Louis dumbfounded, he thought about the invitation for a while, he was tired, but he also wanted to spend some more time with Louis and his kids...so

How could I not say no? Harry thought.

~*~

They ended up going to a wing restaurant, and have been at dinner for a while now. They got seated in a booth, underneath a dim light.

Niall speaks to Noah about school, while Liam interacts with both Darcy and Joesph. Louis and Harry are just lost in their own world, laughing and conversing without any interruptions.

That's until Liam taps on Harry's shoulder. "Hey dumbass. Guess what?" Harry turns to face his best friend, humming in response.

"I want to ask Niall to move in with me, do you mind if we use your apartment? Instead of our shared one? I just want him and I to have a new fresh start in a new area." Liam explains gazing at Niall fondly.

"Aw that's cute mate! Yes, of course you can move in my apartment. You know I don't really go in there anyways so, knock yourself out. I do have a few things, but I'll move it out whenever you're ready to ask him." Harry responds.

Harry has three roofs to live underneath. He had his shared apartment with Liam, his own apartment that he's now giving up for Liam and Niall (that's if Niall says yes), and last but not least, his house.

Harry hasn't told Louis about it, and he wants to come clean, but he wasn't ready to tell Louis the truth yet, and that was okay. He just hoped everything stays the same as it is right now.

"Well what I want to do is-"

Liam's voice fades away slowly, as Harry pays attention to the small hand that's resting on his thigh. He shifted a bit, but that only made Louis' hand rest a bit higher up on Harry's thigh.

"Mate are you even listening to me!" Liam teases, shaking his head. "I'll just talk to you about it tomorrow." Liam says.

"Okay, sorry mate." Harry continued to look at Louis, wondering what game he's playing. He noticed how the small hand moved up higher and higher, resting dangerously close on Harry's crotch.

After that night of having sex with the blue eyed man, Harry had gotten off multiple times thinking about it. The way Louis' lips parted, how his back dangerously arched off the bed, and his noises when he came.

It was a sight Harry found himself liking a little too much, and he wouldn't mind seeing it for eternity. Porn isn't even on the list anymore, it was Louis and the parts of Louis that Harry took a liking to.

Just thinking about it, Harry grew a semi hard on, flustered. Louis finally looks at Harry, smirking when he sees the man's cheek pink.

Harry leans down to Louis' ear, "What games are you playing at babe?" He whispered.

Louis grins, shrugging. "Not playing any games. What are you talking about?" He plays dumb.

Harry inhales a sharp breath, trying to compose himself. "Meet me outside, by your car." Harry commanded pulling away from Louis. He asks Liam to scoot over so he can exit the booth to go outside and wait for Louis.

As Harry exits the restaurant, he received a notification from his phone. He heads straight to Louis' car while opening the text message from his mother.

Mom:
Hey honey, are you safe?

Me:
Yes, I am mother. Are you okay?

Mom:
Yes baby, I am. Just needed to know if you are safe. Good night, love you😘

Me:
Okay, good night mom, love you too💓

read 8:49

Harry and his mother had a close relationship, and almost every night he would text her just to see if she was safe. He wanted no harm done to his mom, and he also didn't want to worry too much while he was away.

"Hi." Harry smirks when Louis' high pitched voice greet him. His small hands reach for Harry's phone turning it off, and handing it back to the curly haired man. "You wanted to meet outside?" He asks.

"You really just want me to take you right here, hm? Is that what you want?" Harry pushes Louis against the car, leaning down in his ear, pressing small soft kisses to his jaw. "Hm?"

"Y-Yeah." Louis breathed out, body trembling due to how much dominance was radiating off of Harry.

"You got me hard babe." Harry presses his hips against Louis'; making sure the smaller man feels his hard on through the fabric. "Do you feel that? You got me like this, got me going crazy for you." Louis' knees become weak from hearing Harry's dirty talk.

"Please Harry.." Louis pleads weakly, looking up at Harry through his lashes. Harry found the sight unholy, kissing Louis' lips roughly. They both make out aggressively, their lips smacking against one another and tongues exploring each other's mouths. After a few minutes they pull away from each other, catching their breaths.

"Not now lovely. Are you going home after the dinner?" Harry asked him.

"Yeah I am. Do you wanna come?"

"Wait, really?" Harry furrow his eyebrows, praying that this isn't a dream.

"Yes really silly. We just gotta make sure the kids don't see you!" He says smiling. "Please."

"Yeah, yes of course, yeah." Harry giggles like a school girl. Louis laughs at Harry's giddiness, tugging the curly haired man down for a kiss.

"You're beautiful Lou." Harry compliments the smaller man, causing him to blush.

"Shut up you sap. Let's go back inside." Louis purposely presses his hips against Harry's to get a feel of his semi-hard on, before walking off swaying his hips.

"Fucking tease." Harry grumbled, adjusting himself.
