Louis stayed home with his family the summer after his first year of university. It was a bit chaotic, but Louis loved it all the same. 

By June Noah leaned to crawl, which was a big challenge for Louis because he could look away for one second and Noah would be somewhere totally different. Noah also began babbling. It was early June when Noah said his first complete word.

"You look so much like your Papa, Noah." Louis said to the little baby sitting on his lap. He hated talking in baby talk. He thought it was dumb and would hinder Noah's speaking abilities.

"Papa's curly hair," Louis said playing with a curl. "Papa's cute lips," he said. "Papa's face in general!" He exclaimed softly, smiling widely at the gurgling baby.

"Pa!" Noah shrieked.

Louis laughed. "Yeah baby, Papa."

"Papa!" Noah shrieked again. "Papa, Papa, Papa, Papa!" He shrieked, although it just sounded like a long repetition of 'pa's Louis was tearing up.

Louis was smiling so wide his face could have split in half. He scooped Noah into his arms and walked into the room he was staying in while at his family's house. On the beside table was a photo frame. Louis sat down on the edge of the bed and placed Noah on his lap again, with Noah's back against his chest, and picked up the picture. Louis held the photo in front of Noah and pointed at Harry's face.

"Papa." He stated.

Noah giggled at slapped his hand on the glass repeatedly.  Louis smiled, his eyes filling with tears. A mixture of sadness and happiness was coursing through him.

"Hey Noah, can you say daddy?" Louis said looking down at his son. 

Noah giggled again and continued to repeat 'Pa'. 

"I love you baby boy." Was all Louis said.

Louis went back to school in August for his second year. Noah stayed with Liam most of the time because he wasn't allowed to enter the preschool division until he was two. Louis was struggling but he managed, and Noah no longer waking up in the middle of the night helped a lot. Sometimes he even regarded him as his little alarm clock because Noah woke up at exactly the right time Louis needed for him to get ready for his classes.

Noah's birthday in November was spent with Liam, Niall, Zayn, and Louis' mother. They had a small cupcake for Noah to destroy and a small cake for the grown ups to eat. Noah received a terrifying amount of toys from his uncles and grandparents, Louis was wondering where they were going to fit all of it. He was a spoiled little child, but Louis hoped he could teach him to never be ungrateful.

The rest of the year passed smoothly Louis was still caught up about Harry, but he put on a brave face for everyone. 

Noah learned more words and started to walk. It was troublesome for Louis when Noah learned to crawl, but now with the walking. It was a nightmare. Louis pretty much had to follow him everywhere to make sure that he was safe. Louis even went through extra precautionary measures and made the entire house baby proof. Fragile items up high and corners and edges rounded. It was his first child, he didn't know what to do.

Noah and Louis went to visit the family again for Christmas and Louis 19th birthday. 

For his birthday Louis received a scrapbook of Harry and Louis, and some of Noah from his sisters. The pictures were ones taken from when Harry visited with Louis and some secretly taken pictures by Liam. Louis laughed, and cried which made Noah walk over to him with a pout on his face, and Louis just cried some more because his little precious boy that was a gift from Harry was the sweetest little boy in the world.

Christmas was good. Louis sisters played with Noah all day so Louis could take a break and chat with his parents, and they had a wonderful Christmas dinner.

Louis and Noah went back home the day after new years so Louis could start school again.

"Daddy!" Louis heard Noah yell from the living room.

"Yes baby. I'm in the kitchen, one second!" Louis yelled back. He was fixing a small fruit bowl for snack time before Noah went down for his nap.

"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!" Noah screamed. 

Louis quickly walked into the living room.

"What baby? What are you screaming about?" Louis said exasperated holding the small bowl of fruit and a fork.

Noah was standing and pointing cutely at the bookshelf, his tiny wings expanding slightly every time he bounced in place.

"Pesent! Pesent!" He shouted, still pointing to the shelf where a small tiny bow wrapped box was sitting.

Louis chuckled at his sons eagerness. He set the bowl and fork on the coffee table and walked over to Noah who was looking up to him with his mouth in the shape of an 'o' and his eyes wide. Louis picked him up and placed him on his hip.

"That present is for Papa, baby. Papa's birthday is tomorrow, but he's still on his trip." Louis said with a smile.

"Papa, trip." Noah repeated. Louis nodded.

"Yeah, a trip." Louis said to himself. "So! How 'bout some fruit for my cute baby boy?" Louis asked Noah.

"Yay!" Noah shouted with a grin. Louis flinched from the sudden volume change, but laughed none the less.

"Then it's nap time because my baby boy needs to rest." 

"No!" Noah pouted elongating the 'o' sound.
