Four
I think about this and just wonder, are they going to tell their story to their grandchildren, or maybe us?

I watched as Grandpa Louis tried to sneak into the house, unnoticed by Grandpa Harry. But they had some kind of instinct maybe, they just knew when the other one was around.
So just as Grandpa Louis was about to tip toe back to his room, Grandpa Harry stood in front of him -hands on his hips and a frown on his face.
"What did you do this time?" Grandpa Harry said, sighing.
"Why you got to assume I did something bad every time I step out of the house?" Grandpa Louis said, hands crossed on his chest.
"Tell me one time when you did not do something bad, Louis."
"When I took you out on dates?" He answered, but it was more of a question.
"Lies. I was running away from the mall police on our very first date because you just couldn't keep your hands away. Then one time I was kicked out of the restaurant, oh then once I was covered in mud. Then once I had to spend the night at a police station plus I hand been grounded too. So please tell me, how did you not cause trouble on our dates too?"
"Okay I get that, but I promise I didn't do something bad this time, I tried doing something for you-"
"Mr.Tomlinson?! Harry Tomlinson?! Your husband broke our hose!"
"That fucking woman, can't keep her mouth shut for a day." Grandpa Louis mumbled under is bed, making me snicker loudly.
"This is what you tried doing for me?" Grandpa Harry asks, shaking his head.
"Look babe-"
"Hold the thought Louis, I have people to apologise to."
I watched as grandpa Harry talked to our neighbour, apologising every minute.
"God knows how that man ended up with you. You could've done so much better." The neighbour told grandpa Harry and I frowned.
I could see grandpa Louis visibly shrink , like those words hit him hard. That was the first time I saw Grandpa Louis so bothered by what people said.
"I'm sorry for what my husband did, Mr.Walker, I'll fix that hose up for you but it'd be appreciated if you didn't mouthed your irrelevant thoughts. Have a nice day." Grandpa Harry said before slamming the door shut.
He looked over to Grandpa Louis and sighed, walking over to him.
"C'mon love, we'll go nap yeah? Then I'll make you the burgers you like."
That's when I knew this wasn't the first time it was happening. Grandpa Louis had been told he wasn't worthy of Grandpa Harry's love before and I wanted to punch the people who said it.
Grandpa Louis shook his head as in no and sat down on the couch after attaching his video game.
Grandpa Harry sat down next to him, taking the second controller and placing his head on Grandpa Louis's shoulder.
I watched as Grandpa Louis let Grandpa Harry win even though he was shit at it. I watched as Grandpa Louis smiled watching Grandpa Harry smile when he won and I thought how did Grandpa Louis not deserve Grandpa Harry?

"Dinner's ready everyone!" Grandpa Harry called out.
"Wait whose birthday is it?" My mum asked sitting on the table, me and Brendon following suit.
Grandpa Harry frowned, "No ones."
"Then why the burgers?" Mum asked.
"I can't make burgers without an occasion or what?"
"You either make them on occasions or when Dad is....oh got it." Mum says, earning a glare from Grandpa H.
"Thanks Harold!" Grandpa Louis says, sitting on the table.
"You okay dad?" Mum asks, worried.
"I'm okay kid." Grandpa Louis says, smiling.
"These are really good! Not even my grandma makes them this good!" Brendon pipes in.
"You trying to hit on my husband or something?" Grandpa Louis asks and I choke on my water, coughing loudly.
"So dad L tell them about the time when you got dad H in trouble for the first time." My mum says,smiling.
"Oh yes! It was so much fun, you should've seen his face it was like he was dead or something." Grandpa Louis,snickers.
"I wasn't that out of colour." Grandpa Harry frowns.
"So," Grandpa Louis began,ignoring Grandpa Harry,
"I got to know the name of the curly haired boy, when I actually went to our English class. It was Harry, Harry Styles and dear lord did I love it. When I called him by his name for the first time he had the 'wtf look' but meh I didn't care. I walked with him in the hallways, talked to him non stop even though he didn't like it one bit. But I loved it when he was annoyed.
One day I had a plan in mind, which didn't include Harry what so ever.
I decided to vandalise the school property, in broad day light because I wasn't a coward and gave rebel a whole new level.
I was ready, spray paints in hand, a whole new set of rebel pumped through me. I was doing it, colouring the walls black, red and blue when Harry decided to show up.
"What the hell are you doing?!" He shouted.
"Keep your voice a bit low yeah? And if you didn't know I was spray painting the wall." I said and then went back to work.
"Are you crazy?! That's illegal you could fall in trouble!" He said, trying to take the spray paint away from me.
"Care much? Besides I am trouble sweet heart." I said, giving him my best smile.
I saw him visibly shiver, considering it was thirty degrees I knew it wasn't because of the weather but me, I had an affect on him. I didn't tell him that though.
Because before I could, the Principal caught us.
We were in the Principal's office as he told us about how irresponsible we are. Harry was shaking his head frantically, trying to tell him that he wasn't a part of it. The Principal didn't believe him though. I watched as the curly haired boy, grew paler and sweat formed on his forehead.
I didn't like seeing him in distress so I spoke up.
"He didn't do anything. He was trying to stop me. So you should be grateful, because if it wasn't for him your whole school would've been spray painted." I said, leaning on the chair.
The principal looked at me, narrowing his eyes.
"Mr.Styles you can leave." He said.
I looked at Harry and winked, as he looked at me in disbelief before leaving.
Well, I was charged -my family was really-for vandalising a public property and was grounded too.
But then Harry wasn't and that's what mattered in the long run."
"Wow." Brendon said.
I smiled looking up at my grandpas.
People weren't wrong when they said, opposites attract.
