Chapter:10
Grumpy Harry?
After telling Louis to leave him alone for the remaining day, Niall just went straight to his bedroom and stared at the ceiling, sitting on his bed. His eyes open but unfocused.
He thought about everything that life had thrown his way. He thought about his stupid decision of going out that night, his stupid decision of going home with a stranger, his stupid decision of falling for the stranger, his stupid decision of not checking the bin to see if they had used a condom. Basically his stupid decision of living this life.
But what was done could not be undone right?
Sure he could abort the baby and continue with his life, but he wasn't that heartless. He knew he wouldn't be able to live with the guilt knowing that he had killed his own baby.
But at the same time, he didn't want to raise his baby without his other father. He didn't want his baby to think when he or she grew up that his father was a whore ho got knocked up on accident and didn't even know the last name of his other father.
He basically was clueless at the moment.
He had to make a decision soon.
Decisions. Decisions. Decisions.

Louis still looked at Harry with wide eyes. He just wanted to curl up in a ball and hide in a cave and never come out.
"Daddy!" He was snapped out of his thoughts by the shout of his son.
He looked down to find Elijah looking at him with big blue eyes and grinning widely, just happy to see his father while his innocent self was unaware of the fact that his father was dying on the inside.
"Hey peanut!" He said with a weak voice and a half hearted smile.
He bent down to kiss both his sons on their foreheads and then smiled at them softly. He couldn't ignore them even if Harry was standing there, still tightly clutching the bouquet.
With another soft smile he asked them to go inside and them being the good kids they were, left their father on his request.
Once the front door was closed, he slowly got up from his knees and looked at Harry with fear in his eyes.
The fear wasn't because Harry had found out about his kids but because of the expression on his face.
His face no longer held an unreadable expression, but it held one of anger.
Harry's jaw was clenched. Hands holding the bouquet so thought that his knuckles turned white and eyes boring into Louis' own.
"I'm still waiting for you to speak up, you know." Harry said a little too calmly.
Louis was snapped out of his thoughts, and he didn't even have the strength to look into Harry's eyes.
"I...... I don't know what to say." Louis answered so quietly that it came out just a whisper.
Louis could tell Harry had tightened his grip on the bouquet when he heard his knuckles crack.
"Look me in the eye Louis." Harry said with a more firm tone now.
Louis finally lifted his head up to kook into Harry's eyes, not because he wanted to but because it came out like a command when Harry said it.
"You don't know what to fucking say!" He shouted this time which caused Louis to flinch.
"Are they your kids Louis? I already know the answer, I'm not fucking blind. I just need a yes or no answer from you. Are they your kids?" He asked through clenched teeth.
"Y-yes." Louis whispered.
That's all it took for Harry to throw the bouquet and start walking towards his car.
And it was like everything just registered in Louis' mind, like he just realised that Harry was leaving him.
But he caught a hold of Harry's arm before he could go too far.
“W-where are you going?" He asked in a panicked voice.
“Where do you think I'm fucking going? Huh!. I'm not gonna just stand here with a guy who has lied to me all this time. All I wanted was a proper relationship with you and this is what you do? You fucking cheat me! I can't believe I fell for your lies!" Harry said, his voice only getting higher with each sentence.
‘Harry wanted a relationship with me?' Louis thought, and this thought just made him feel even worse about all this.
“I never lied to you Harry. This just never came up in conversation." Louis said. Hus voice still low.
“And now your defending yourself with these pathetic excuses! You're just pathetic Louis Tomlinson." Harry said. And okay he needs to stop shouting.
“Were you ever gonna tell me about this Louis?" Harry asked his voice once again calm.
And that's just confusing Louis even more.
“Harry listen to me, all this-" Louis started but was cut off by Harry.
“Just answer my fucking question Louis. Were you ever planning to tell me about them?" Harry asked, his tone now impatient.
“Of course I was gonna tell you about them. It's just that it never came in conversation when I was texting you or talking to you on phone. And every time I was with you, I was just too distracted to talk about this stuff. Please believe me Harry." Hus voice quietened once again as he reached the end.
“That's not a good enough reason Louis, and you know that." Harry sighed.
“I know it's not Harry, but you have to see where I'm coming from. I'm a single father taking care of my two three year old sons. I have a job to attend to and on top of all this I was trying to make a relationship work. I had a lot on my plate Harry." Louis almost begged this time.
“Which relationship?" Harry asked.
“ US! I just wanted a serious loving relationship with you Harry." He said.
“Louis I want the same thing." The taller said softly now stepping close to Louis. “But you too have to see where I'm coming from. I hate being lied to, Louis." He continued softly.
“I know Harry. I'm just really sorry. Please don't end things this way." The blue eyed lad said with tears prickling in his eyes and he looked up into the green ones before him.
The sight would melt anyone's heart.
“I'm not ending everything Lou." Harry sighed while cupping Louis' face. “I just need some time to think this through."
“O-okay." Louis nodded.
“ I'll call you myself okay? And during this it'd be best if you don't call or text me." Harry said, his voice now soft like a lullaby.
Louis nodded while a small, almost quite sob escaped his mouth.
And this just broke Harry's heart but he was right, he needed some time to think this through.
He pressed one small lingering kiss on Louis' forehead.
And smiled at him when the shorter lad looked up into his eyes.
He smiled back and Harry finally left.
Louis stepped inside his house with small dreaded steps.
He saw his kids in the living room playing with their cars, apparently unaware of all the shouting that just happened outside but Lottie had heard it all as she stood up and looked at her brother with worry clear in her eyes.
“Louis are you okay? I heard him sayi-" Lottie started but her brother cur her off.
“Not right now Lots. I want to be alone, but I'll talk to you tomorrow, you need to explain something to me" he smiled like lightly but added a stern look on the end so she knew that whatever he wanted to talk about was serious.
Lottie nodded and proceeded to leave the house so her brother could have some alone time.
Louis sighed and sat down with his kids so he could distract himself for some time.
He had a lot to think about.
