I'll say, will you marry me?
I swear that I will mean it
~~~~~
"You want… To leave Brian be in a warehouse?"
Louis cringed "There will be around the clock security, he will never be out free and the votes came in and a lot of the others agree"
Zayn stayed quiet then stood up "Ok"
Louis' eyes widened "Didn't think you'd agree this fast" He mumbled
"But if he escapes, you'll be the one running after him to catch him. I want him dead Louis, and I don't want his age to kill him"
"Zayn-"
"You and everyone who voted will be responsible to find him, and you'll have a limit of 6 months"
Louis hesitated "6 months until….??"
"Until I go crazy and murder everyone who agreed to this"
~~~~~
"Whelp. We are screwed"
Isaac snorted "You are screwed. I chose for him to stay"
Derek sighed "We were worried about Zayn"
"Doesn't mean you aren't screwed" Harry said leaning against the wall
Theo looked at Louis "He wouldn't know who voted what…. Right?"
Louis looked at him "Theo, I think we all know that an angry Zayn is terrifying"
Dunbar sighed "Where is he anyways?"
Louis dropped his head back and looked at the ceiling "On the phone with C"
~~~~~
"I still think he deserves to die"
Louis' eyes widened and he slowly turned to Trisha "I thought you were a sweet kind lady who is against violence"
She smiled and turned to Louis "Darling, when you have kids one day, and someone hurts them, you'll realise you're all against violence until someone hurts them, then all that shit flies out the window"
Louis stayed quiet then sighed "I…. I see someone as a daughter" She nodded "I love her like a daughter" She nodded "I would die protecting her, because I couldn't kill who hurt her the first time"
She smiled "Why isn't she your daughter yet?"
Louis looked at his hands "Well, we are technically at war, and I wouldn't want her to be in the middle"
"This war will end Louis, but you won't get your time with her if she's taken by someone else"

Harry was sitting across from Zayn, discussing strategies when Louis burst into the room
He was breathing heavily and his eyes met Harry
"Let's adopt Darcy"
Harry's eyes widened "What?"
Zayn sighed and stood up "This is a private conversation"
"No Zayn stay" Louis rushed out Zayn gave Louis an unimpressed look as Louis poked his head out the door "NIALL!!"
Louis walked into the room, and once Niall was inside he closed the door
"I know, I said I wanted to leave this world behind before we adopt-" Louis seemed to hesitate before he continued "But I don't want to wait, it'll take months for the process to be continued and someone could take her before we get the chance."
Harry relaxed and smiled "Lou-"
"I can't see our house without her, she's part of it-" Louis pointed at Niall "He saw us with her"
Niall slowly nodded "She's like a mix of you both, crazy and calm"
Harry laughed quietly "Why does Zayn need to be here for this?" Zayn blinked looking at Louis
Louis looked at Zayn "I need someone blessing to marry him" Harry's jaw dropped and he looked at Zayn "You're the closest thing he as to a family right now, you've known him for the longest and bringing his parents into this is risky-extremely risky"
Zayn opened and closed his mouth before he nodded "You have my blessing" He said then stood up "Niall let's let them have their moment" He said before he and Niall walked out
Once the door closed, Louis and Harry stayed quiet before Harry stood up
He walked towards Louis and cupped his cheeks "That was a grand gesture" Louis laughed quietly under his breath
"And he just threatened to murder me." Louis mumbled before he looked into Harry's eyes
"Marry me Harry…. Marry me and be mine forever, I don't care if we don't get a piece of paper that says you're my husband but I-" He rubbed his thumb over Harry's cheeks "I want you to be my husband Harry Edward Styles, be mine forever?"
Harry laughed and nodded "Oh god yes, always"
Louis froze "Waw I thought you'll say you need time to think" He mumbled making Harry laugh harder

They don't do much celebrations, mostly because they're all so focused on finding what they've lost and taking down the fuckers who helped
They barely have time for proper celebrations
Birthdays are just blowing a candle, and holidays are mostly spend quietly
Yet for Louis and Harry's (very rushed) pre-wedding, they all agreed would be a new beginning
December 20th, a quick fuck you to everyone as they enjoyed their time
There were laughs, there were cheers and the moon was at its highest
Darcy was there, seated beside Estrella who is now her best friend
They didn't tell her about adopting her just yet, as the process would be long and they knew in order for it to be…. Real they didn't want to point a gun at someone and force it to be rushed
There was, of course, a shit ton of security. They secured the perimeter and nobody could go in and out without being seen
Louis and Harry never wanted to let each other go, they got married in sweatpants but swore they'll have another ceremony when everything is better
Harry said it was fine but Louis told him he deserved better
There were no speeches, there were no special guests, no aisle to walk down
But that's all for another day. The 20th is just letting everyone get excited for what's to come
There was a photo that Louis put in a frame, it was chaotic, nobody was looking in the same direction, Niall had cake smashed on the bottom part of his face from when he ruffled and messed up Zayn's hair but they were smiling (somewhat), the 2 little girls were in unicorn onesies and running off frame with their faces blurred, Derek, Stiles, Theo, Isaac, and Dunbar were in the process of falling
Louis was on Harry's back, with his face in Harry's neck and Harry was in the middle of a laugh
The only 2 who looked fine were Trisha and Yaser, smiling and laughing, not a smudge on them and not a hair out of place
There were other photos, but Louis chose that one because it describes his family
Chaotic, crazy and absolutely insane
Yet he couldn't help but wonder if his family would ever be complete
