Chapter 17

(I don't even fucking know anymore guys. All I can think about is the sequel to this book. TIME TO WRAP IT UP KIDS.)

----

Louis and I held our breath as we made our way to exit the airport. Our hands interlocked. Thankfully, most Paps decided to stay outside. A few were inside, but no extreme push-shove-flash type of photographers.

"Okay, Niall go in front. Zayn to left. Harry, keep a hand on Louis' waist. I'll go on the back. Security can keep a wrap around us. Don't let them touch him." I nodded wrapping an arm around Louis' tired figure. His frames on his face an my jumper giving him mittens.

"Tired kitten?" I quizzed, pushing his fringe out his eyes." He shrugged.

"Tummy hurts. Head hurts." I frowned kissing his temple.

"Don't worry you can cuddle up in bed soon. I'll give you some medicine later too, okay?" He nodded and place his head on my shoulder. 4 guards formed a barrier around us as we began walking out the doors.

Cameras flashed and I yanked Louis in front of me, both arms protectively around his waist.

"Harry did you cheat?"

"What happened in Italy?"

"Have you been dating Louis all along?!"

"How does it feel to be a sex symbol for millions of women and girls."

I grit my teeth and pushed Louis along, feeling his figure shaking in my arms.

"You're okay baby. Almost there." I whispered to him. He gulped but wrapped his fingers around my wrist.

"Niall how does it feel to be cheated on!?"

"Harry how long have you been in a relationship?!"

"Harry was it a publicity stunt!?" We continued to push ourselves along, getting to the car slowly. Zayn tugging Louis in quickly. Bless him. Niall and I jumping in quick and Liam last with a slam of the door. I turned to Louis and Zayn seeing the pair shaken up.

"You go through that every day?" Zayn asked his voice worried. Louis quickly moved into my lap. Hiding his face from the camera flashes around the car.

"Well... This is just the beginning."

-

The car ride home went smoothly. Dropping Zayn at his home. Niall leaving with Liam afterwards leaving Louis and I to cuddle lazily with each other.

As soon as the gates opened and we entered our home, Louis and I practically scrambled from the car. Mostly Louis excited to see who was in the house. Our driver removing our things as I went to open the door. Turning the key and being attacked at the legs by a brownish gray and white pitbull puppy.

"Peanut!" Louis cheered happily, sinking to his knees and petting the soft ball of fur. "You got so big Pea. Where's-?" I spotted Leo's furry tail in the distance, and I shuffled over to pick up the bugger.

"Looking for queen bee I see." Louis smiled happily, holding the fluffy kitten as I handed her over.

"They got so big Hazzy."

"10 weeks." I knelt down beside Peanut having his little paws dance all over my thighs as he lapped at my bicep. "Hello little puppy. How are you my little trouble maker?" I said in a baby voice. He lapped at my hand happily. Giving a tiny high pitched bark. "Soft blue nose aren't you?" I stood going into the kitchen and seeing a note on the counter. "Holy hell." I swore quietly.

"What is it?" Louis quizzed cuddling his beloved kitten.

"21 missed calls from my mum..." I whispered. He set down his feline, only to wrap around my middle.

"She called?" I nodded. "Well that's good right? She wants to talk." I sighed.

"After 6 months of silence?"

"She tries Hazzy. It's not everyday that-"

"People are porn stars, I know Louis." His eyes dimmed as I spun to face him. "I'm sorry baby. I didn't mean to snap at you. How about you and I go watch movies in sweatpants and eat popcorn. Yeah?" He bit his lip.

"Can we take out the sweat pants?" My eyebrows knotted but quickly came into realization.

"Someone got a case of mid-morning wood?" Pink dusted his cheeks.

"Someone might. But we can always cuddle on the couch and watch the lion king... Naked." I smirked pressing a kiss to his lips.

"Not home for 5 minutes and you're already horny?" He shrugged.

"Nostalgia." I nodded with heavy sarcasm.

"Right right, of course. How about you do whatever you gotta do and I'll call the woman who pushed me out of-" He held up a hand.

"Don't say it. I don't need a description of your birth."

"Vagina. Don't be a wang."

"I will be a wang! I'm gay!" I chortled softly, kissing his forehead and watching his form disappear up the stairs.

With a sigh I pulled my phone out of my pocket. My finger scrolling down to 'M' and hovering over 'mummy'. With yet another sigh, I hit her name with my thumb and held the phone up to my ear.

1 ring.

2.....

"Hi mummy."

-

I awoke to the shake of my shoulder, courtesy of Louis. But what woke me up completely was the boom of thunder and flash of lightening through our window. As well as the steady stream of rain hitting the glass.

"Hazzy?" I rubbed my eyes weakly, sitting up a bit.

"You okay?" He nodded. "Thunder?" He nodded once more huddling into my shoulder.

"I'm sorry for waking you up... It's just loud." I stroked the small of his back lightly.

"What time is it?" I asked rubbing my nose.

"Half 4...." He mumbled sadly. I hummed back and felt his little hands rip at my skin as the thunder clapped again. "I hate rain storms." I sighed.

"Well.... We both know that reason. And I'm not judging you for it baby." He pressed his lips to my chest. "Did you sleep?" He shook his head.

"I was talking to people again..." He stated, his voice heavy with sleep. When are you seeing your mum?" He asked.

"8." I yawned.

"My mum called yesterday finally. She said she wants to see both of us." I nodded. "You're warm."

"You're cold."

"And you're comfy"

"I'm also very sore." He fidgeted slightly against my hot skin. "Sorry I shouldn't have said that." He shrugged.

"You don't have to do films anymore in November."

"Correct you are my Prince... Sleepy yet?" He nodded. I pushed his fringe from his forehead, petting it against his messy locks. "Hush little Loubear don't say a cry. Hazzy's gonna lay with you all night." I sung teasingly. He smiled, closing his eyes. His breathing eventually evening out. Mine doing the same minutes later.

I woke once more, this time on my own at around 7. Louis sound asleep against my side. I maneuvered myself away from him, digging into my drawer and pulling out clothes as well as stepping into the shower. Appreciating the water wiping away the morning fatigue. After letting the water burn my skin red, I dressed and kissed sleeping Louis goodbye, leaving him yet another good morning note and fleeing our home.

-

"Harry?" I glanced behind me seeing the dark haired woman we with rain water standing behind me. I stood with a smile.

"Hi mum."

"God it's good to see you." I pecked her cheek as we parted or limbs. She sat across from me removing her coat. "So... How have you been?"

"Busy. Good. Doing really good." She cocked an eyebrow at me.  

"Why do I have a feeling that isn't the truth?" I chuckled.

"Well he's doing okay. Better I guess you could say." She nodded.

"I assumed. I thought my baby boy was in trouble, turns out it was your version of your baby boy." I smiled.

"He's really something mum." She nodded. "He's just been a bit ill, he's fine though. Just a bit of under the weather stuff." She nodded sarcastically.

"So I've seen pictures of you. Clubbing. Smoking even-" I bit my lip. "Wanna tell me about that Harry?" She asked crossing her arms. "You know you have asthma Harry." I stirred the straw in my cup.

"I haven't had an asthma attack since I was 15 mum." She sighed.

"Well how does Louis feel about this? A little birdy told my you were so drunk you nearly cheated on him." I rolled my eyes.

"Mum, we got back from Italy a month ago. I'm fine. It's not like I'm an alcoholic. I know my limits. And I'm not fighting with you here." She scrubbed her hands over her face.

"Harry, you've been with him for 3 year I can't watch you do this type of stuff... Speaking of Italy, wanna tell me about the proposal so we aren't Down each others throats?" I nodded.

"November 9th. Vow exchange is private. Louis wants white roses. It's indoor due to the weather, and we've already got a venue." She stared at me rather surprised. "Louis is in full angst mode." She laughed happily. "But the proposal was in a restaurant in Italy. He cried and the ring Is engraved with 'love' in script with 2 diamonds side by side."

"2 diamonds huh?" I grinned.

"Only the best." It was silent as I sipped my tea.

"Haven't seen you in forever Harry..." She whispered. I felt a knot form in my stomach. "I missed you." I glanced up at her shiny eyes. "I was mad when I first saw how you were making money lovey it's just... I guess now to see you plastered on magazines and billboards and the telly it's a lot to take in." I watched her face go numb with sadness. "It's not everyday you see your baby boy in a magazine or in the movie theaters. Posing with beautiful girls and all over the internet." I reached out my hand for hers. "I guess I never got a chance to apologise for dropping out of your life when this whole thing happened and popping up on holidays." I watched a tear slowly slip from her face.

"Mum it's... It's okay I didn't expect everyone to be on board. Dad disowned me. You stuck around in someway." She sniffled. "And Gem too. Gem called me and gave Louis and I a congratulations so I know I at least you guys are checking up on me." She nodded dabbing the inner corner of her eye with her index finger. "I missed you mum... " I mumbled. She smiled squeezing my hand.

"I missed you to baby." I stood to embrace her. And for the first time in a while, it felt like old times again.
