"So . About progress stuff ."

Louis whined and dropped his head to rest on Harry's shoulder ; they were cuddled up on the couch at his apartment , watching yet another episode of The Walking Dead .

"What are we up to today ?" Louis asked and sat up , tucking his hands into sweater paws .

Harry moved his hair from his face , "How about we watch a bit of Shark Week on NG ?"

Louis squeezed his eyes shut , lips in a tight line . He didn't want to , really didn't want to , but at the same time he wanted to get over his fear . He felt Harry's thumbs caressing the crinkles by his eyes and on his forehead , he took in a deep breath and nodded . "Okay . But not for long ."

"Not for long , love , only a few minutes ." Harry nodded , Louis opened his eyes to look at Harry , worry and fear evident in his eyes . Harry held his arms out for Louis , who quickly snuggled into him and clutched his jumper in his hands .

Harry reached for the remote and changed the channel , his arms wrapping around Louis tightly . He felt Louis' heart pounding against his ribcage when he saw guys on a boat in the middle of the sea , flinching when there was a cut right to a shark .

Louis sunk into the couch and forced himself to look at the screen , toes curling in his fluffy socks . A minute in Louis stood up from the couch , "I'm done ." He said and walked to the kitchen , his back to the TV .

Harry changed the channel and stood up after him , he wrapped his arms around him from behind as he watched Louis shakily making himself a cup of tea . He took the milk out of the fridge and wordlessly handed it to Louis , Louis took it without looking up and poured a bit of milk into his tea , handing the carton back to Harry .

Louis picked his cup up to his lips , Harry's hand rubbing his back . He took in the scent of the tea before sipping on it carefully , Harry kissed his temple , "Give me a cuddle ."

Louis put his cup down on the counter and turned to Harry's chest , squishing his face against his hard yet soft chest with his arms around his middle . Harry wrapped one arm around his shoulders , the other around his waist , as he swayed them gently side to side with his chin ontop of Louis' head .

"You're doing amazing ." Harry rubbed his shoulders , "I believe in you ."

Louis nodded against his chest and pulled back a little , he wiped his eyes , "This whole thing is giving me a headache ."

Harry kissed his forehead and reached for the tea cup , handing it to Louis . "What do you want for dinner ?"

Louis sipped on his tea , "I haven't gone grocery shopping yet so I don't have much to cook with . Either we order or go out ."

"Let's go out for a bit , get some fresh air ."

"Even though it's cold outside ?"

"We'll warm each other up ." Harry wrapped his arms around Louis from behind , Louis smiled and leaned against him , "I think I'm good , my cup of tea is warming me up pretty well ."

Harry pouted , "Well your cup of tea doesn't kiss and cuddle you , how about that ?"

Louis smiled against the cup before sipping on it , "We just kissed , my cup is a pretty good kisser ."

"Okay stop because you're actually making me jealous of a fucking cup ." Harry laughed and took the cup from Louis' hands , Louis chuckled , "Mission accomplished ."

"You little shit ." Harry smacked his bum , Louis squeaked and giggled , going to his room to get dressed to go out .

~~

"For the ninth time in the past fifteen minutes , Lou - where do you want to eat ?" Harry asked through chuckles , Louis whined , "Stop laughing , I seriously don't know ."

"Want to go get fast food ?"

"Not really ."

"Pasta ?"

"Mm , no , too heavy ."

"A salad ?"

"Don't make me laugh , Haribo ."

"Lou , help me out here ." Harry reached his hand out and prodded his side , Louis laughed and grabbed his hand , holding it in both his smaller ones instead , "Just keep driving around until I see something I like ."

"Want to get pizza ?"

"Not sure about it ."

"Chinese ?"

"Nope ."

"Loueh ."

"Harreh ."

"Pick something already ."

"Well why don't you pick something ?"

"I tried , you said no to everything I said ."

Louis pouted , "Do I have to be the one choosing ?"

"Yes ."

"This is a lot of pressure , Haribo ."

"I swear to god if you don't pick anything in the next twenty seconds I'm pulling over and kicking you out of the car ."

"What !"

"Clock's ticking , love ."

"This is not fair !"

"Seventeen ."

"You're a mean , mean frog , Harreh ."

"Thirteen ."

"Okay , okay uhhh ..."

"Ten ."

"Stop counting out loud !"

"Eight ."

"This is not helping my anxiety , you know ."

"Five ."

"Umm .."

"Two ."

"Burgers ! Let's just get burgers ." Louis slapped a hand over Harry's mouth , Harry grinned against his hand before kissing his palm , "Should've done that ten minutes ago ."

"You're evil ." Louis shook his head and crossed his arms over his chest , Harry smirked , "You love me ."

Louis said nothing , as he was giving Harry the silent treatment . Harry pulled up outside a burgers place , he got out of the car with Louis who was still not talking with his arms crossed . He put his arm around his waist as they stood in line to order , rubbing his side , "Lou ?"

Louis ignored him as he looked up at the menu , he already knew what he wanted to order but needed to busy himself or he would give into Harry's pouty lips and wide puppy eyes . 

Harry wrapped both his arms around Louis from the side , his hands laced together on his hip . He kissed his cheek , "I'm sorry , baby ."

Louis almost , almost gave in , but he was stronger than that . They took a step forward in line , Harry kept one arm tightly around Louis' waist as he told the girl behind the desk their order . Louis' heart warmed up when Harry remembered his order .

As he was taking his money out to pay Harry caught his hand and shook his head before handing the girl his money , Louis huffed and stuffed a few bills into his jeans' back pocket . Harry shook his head in amusement and accepted his change from the girl , taking Louis by the waist to the side to wait for their order to be ready .

"Talk to me ." Harry uncrossed Louis' arms and put his hands on his waist , Louis looked to the side as Harry pecked his cheek a few times . Harry rubbed his nose against his cheek , "If you don't talk to me I'll have to tickle you , and you'll fall to the floor and be embarrassed ."

Louis' insides flipped as he bit his lower lip to stop himself from smiling , he took a few steps back from Harry but Harry walked closer with a smirk and wrapped his arms around him . He giggled quietly even before Harry managed to get his hands on his stomach , making Harry giggle along.

"Talk to me ." Harry grinned , and as his hands were placed on Louis' sides Louis gave in .

"Okay okay okay okay , don't , please . Stop it , you're pulling attention ." Louis laughed as quietly as he could while pushing Harry's tickling fingers away from his sensitive sides , cheeks red with blush . Harry laughed and stopped , "Atleast you're talking to me again ." He kissed his cheek .

~~

Louis laid back on the pillows on his bed , his phone pressed to his ear . 

"It sounds really good . But knowing Nialler he would probably find out about it and be like 'haha I knew there's surprise party bitches' ." Louis said , talking to Zayn , "And knowing that idiot he's expecting a bigger party than the one we threw for Liam last week ."

"Oh yeah , for sure ." Zayn laughed , "But also don't forget Niall is an idiot , wouldn't be that hard keeping a surprise party from him ."

"I know . When Harry comes back I'll tell him ."

"Alright mate , I'll text you all on our groupchat tomorrow . Have a good night ."

"You too , lad ."

They hung up , Harry walked out of the bathroom after brushing his teeth . "What did Zayn want ?"

"It's Nialler's birthday next week so he and Liam are planning a surprise party , and we'll help them ." Louis said , watching Harry crawling on the bed and settling ontop of him , his head on his stomach .

"Oh , sounds good ." Harry nodded , smiling when Louis' fingers tangled in his hair .

"Yeah , he's going to love it . We'll get him a really nice cake , party all night , you know what I mean , pretty much what Nialler loves . We just need t-to - need to make s-sure -" Louis was cut off by his own giggles , looking down at Harry who lifted the hem of his shirt up and started pressing kisses to his stomach . "What a-are you doing ?"

"I want your belly ." Harry mumbled against his skin , smiling at Louis' soft laughter . Louis' soft , tiny belly was one of his favourite things in the world .

Louis put one hand over his mouth to quieten his laughter , the other hand tried pushing Harry away ; his belly was really ticklish . 

His laughter got breathier when he felt Harry moving down to the side , biting on his skin until it was red . When he realized where Harry was aiming his heart skipped a beat .

Harry felt Louis' body tense , he pulled back from his third lovebite and looked up , "You alright , love ?"

Louis sighed , "Yeah , yeah I'm good ." He nodded , though Harry couldn't miss his thick swallow . He sat up a little and put both his large hands on Louis' tiny waist under his shirt , "Talk to me ."

"I - I just . I never - had it , before ." Louis shook his head , "It was either because the other person was grossed out , or - or I wasn't comfortable ."

"It's alright if you don't want it ." Harry said , Louis rubbed his eyes , "But - but I do . I just - I'm just shy about it . And nervous ."

Harry smiled softly and leaned down to kiss him , "You're cute . Tell me if you want to stop , alright ?" Louis nodded and smiled when Harry kissed him again .

 Harry had a soft smile on his lips as he trailed his fingers up and down the curve of Louis' waist under his shirt , he never thought Louis would be so shy after . It's been twenty minutes since Harry blew him and Louis returned a handjob , and Louis still had his face stuffed into his chest .

How can someone be so adorable even after being intimate , Harry thought to himself as he kissed the top of his head .

"Lou ?"

Louis hummed into his chest , Harry smiled , "You alright , baby ?" He asked , and Louis was lucky his face was still hidden in his chest because he blushed even harder . He nodded , Harry chuckled softly , "Give me a kiss ?"

Louis pulled back only a little bit , shuffling up and pressing a shy kiss to his jawline . Harry scrunched his nose , "Not what I meant ."

"Well then I don't know what you meant ." Louis teased in a shy voice , hiding his smile in Harry's neck . He squeaked when Harry rolled them over and lied ontop of him , pressing their lips together .
