It's Complicated

Chapter 16

Hey there! 
Look it's sweet sixteen.
Ok just read it before I get even more weird.

Louis's eyes flutter open when the sunlight coming from the window hits him. He rolls over onto his back and a stupid grin automatically takes over his entire face.

His mind reels back to what happened the other night. It was like they were on a second first date with the nervous giggling, awkward hand holding and small kisses.

Louis touches his lips, trying to convince himself that what happened last night was not a dream, even though it felt like it.

Louis remembers the way their lips moved against one another, and how good it felt to have Harry in his arms again. Pink lips and big green eyes start to take over his mind and now all he wants to do is go see them again.

Louis looks over to his alarm clock which read 7 am back to him, which is a time he never wakes up at, but he knows this is the exact time Harry is awake.

"We'll talk about it in the morning."

Those words echo in Louis's head, making his body vibrate with anticipation. He knows Harry probably didn't mean to talk this early in the morning, but he couldn't wait.

Louis jumps out of bed to get ready for the day. He brushes his teeth, combs through his hair and slips into a pair of grey joggers and a random Arsenal jumper.

Before he leaves, he takes one last look in the mirror. Besides the grey hairs and extra wrinkles; the man staring back at him, reminded Louis of a much younger and happier image of himself.

Louis knows that they probably won't mend everything in one day, but talking it out was a good start.

Nevertheless, Louis was in a terrific mood and he had a feeling that today was going to be a good day.

When Louis enters the main house, all his kids were already lounging in the family room and Anne was cooking breakfast in the kitchen.

"Good morning beautiful people!" Louis exclaims brightly, proceeding to kiss everyone. He even goes over to Anne and hugs her from behind, giving her a huge peck on the cheek.

Anne laughs, amused at his actions. "Good morning to you too. You're in a good mood."

Louis hooks his chin over her shoulder, and just shrugs as a response.

"So I'm guessing last night was okay?" Olivia looks over in interest.

"It was great, but we missed you all at dinner." Louis looks at them knowingly.

"Sorry, the movie ended late so we just went home, but we're glad you and papa had a good time." Beckham smiles at him a little too innocently.

Louis shakes his head, amused. His kids were something else.

"Yeah okay. Speaking of your papa, where is he?"

"He's still upstairs I think," Olivia answers him.

"Really? He's usually awake by now."

"Well he did come home really late. I wonder why that was." Anne smirks at him, knowing full well what transpired between the two of them.

Louis can't help the blush that takes over his cheeks. "Alright well I'll go wake him up then." He slowly retreats up the stairs.

"You go and do that," Olivia said with a wide smile.

Louis just rolls his eyes and runs up the rest of the way up the stairs.

After navigating through the halls, Louis somehow finds himself in front of the master bedroom. He knew Harry wasn't in there, but for some reason his legs brought him there.
