Harry's Pov

I hummed softly under my breath, running a hand through my long locks to ruffle them out.

"Ready, love?" Louis called out from the living room and I made my way to him. It was currently the day after we had the meeting with our mums. Today was the day we were going to visit Louis's old childhood home since they've never moved out of Doncaster.

They lived near the outskirts so it was not so near the actual city part and was on the opposite side of town from our home in the woods so it would be a long drive.

"Yeah," I called back, walking towards the door where Louis stood on his phone. He looked up and pocketed it so he could open the door for the both of us.

Louis had told me he was nervous and I completely get it. I told him if he ever wanted to leave, we could. He told me the same because I would be meeting his whole entire family too. For the both of us, it would be like walking into a whole group of strangers but we had each other's backs.

I was also nervous to see Gemma again. I don't know how she'll react to me and Louis being together or to me in general.

The ride there was silent, leaving me and Louis giving each other comforting glances, knowing the other would understand. Soon, we pulled up to a house.

The house was big and beautiful with a great garden decorating the front with various of flowers. It was a two story, fit to hold a huge family.

"This was your childhood home?" I gawked, turning Louis. He stared at the house with a distant look, eyes haunted.

"Yeah," he said emotionlessly.

I took his hand, pulling his eyes to mine. "He's not there anymore, remember? Your mum said he was arrested."

He nodded, taking a deep breath. "Its just hard seeing it."

"I know," I took his hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze. He returned the squeeze and gave me a smile before climbing out of the car.

I followed after him and he took my hand as we made our way to the door. He raised a hand to knock and a second later the door swung open wide to reveal a beaming Jay.

"Louis! Harry! I'm so glad you made it! Anne and Gemma aren't here yet but come in," I tensed at the names of my mum and sister but returned her welcoming smile as she led us in.

"Everyone is excited to meet you guys! All of the siblings, I swore cried when I told them that you were alive and that I met you and now they were going to meet you! Lottie and Fizzy were the only ones who truly remember what you looked like and everything and everyone is so excited, Louis," Jay beamed at Louis and he gave a shy smile back.

"I'm proper excited to meet them and see Lottie and Fizzy. I'm surprise they remember though. He kept me away from them before," Louis trailed off and by the way Jay's eyes had softened, I knew she understood.

"Let go of that," She brought him in for a quick hug. "They're excited and thats what matters. You are back now and thats what matters. With a new addition to the big family too!"

She beamed at me when she pulled away from Louis, surprising me by bringing me in to a hug that which I returned wholeheartly. I chuckled and Louis smiled at me.

"Come on! Everyone is waiting!" She pulled away and quickly pulled us to where everyone waited.

Louis's Pov

My mum pulled us into the living room where everyone was and before I could get a good look, everyone was standing with great big smiles.

My mum opened her mouth to speak just as I was trying to take everyone in but suddenly two bodies were crashing into me.
