I Need You Like A Heartbeat

Chapter fifteen

-Harry-

I pulled the covers away from Louis' face. He covered his mouth while he slept sometimes and was struggling to get air out in his sleep. I haven't told him, but this has been happening most nights. I kissed his cheek and scooted off the edge of the bed, trying not to rustle the covers. I successfully got up and grabbed my phone to walk into the kitchen.

My smile was from ear to ear. I was going to marry my best friend today. I pushed back the other more scary things in the future that I was thinking and focused on the present. I dialed up Liam, who I figured would probably be the only one up this early.

"Hi Harry, everything okay?"

"Better than okay. Do you have a suit?"

"Yeah..."

"Perfect. I'm going to need you to get dressed, nicely, and be here in two hours."

"Harry..."

"Liam, I proposed."

"Oh my god, Harry!"

"I know, so we're doing it today."

"Okay. I'll be there."

"Okay." I grinned.

"See you then."

I hung up and leant back into the chair. Wow. I was really doing it. We were going to get married. Nothing big, nothing special to others, but to us, it will be our whole world.

I scrolled through my contacts until I found Jay.

"Hi hazza boo, how are you?" She answered in a sing song voice.

"I'm doing good, how are you?"

"Well love, I'm doing okay. What's up?"

"I have a question."

"Okay."

"Can I marry your son?" That came our faster than I thought. I could hear her stop breathing for a second. Oh shit. Did I screw up?

"There is no one else I would rather him marry." She breathed.

"Thank you."

"When?"

"We wanted to do it as soon as possible, and we were thinking today." I clenched my teeth. She probably thinks we're crazy for doing it now.

"I'll be there, I'll find a way."

"We will wait."

"Okay love." She sniffed. "Tell Louis I love him."

"I will, I love you jay. Thank you."

"You're welcome honey. Thank you for showing Louis love."

"Thank you for handing Louis over to me."

"Honey, there is no one else in this world that I would rather take care of him. I'll see you soon."

"I'll see you soon."

"Bye bye sweetie."

"Bye."

I sat down the phone. I will call Zayn and Niall in a bit. First, I should probably go check on Lou. I dragged my feet down the hall into our room and peaked in.

"You're up love?" I asked, slowly walking in.

"Yeah." He rubbed his eyes.

"Want breakfast?"

He shook his head.

"You okay hun?"

"Mhmm, I'm fine. I mean we are getting married soon so I'm doing great. We are getting married soon right?"
