At the Doorstep (again)

...

Harry was having a great time, reading peaceful on his couch with Clifford curled up in his lap.

It had been three weeks since Cliff had been at his as Louis had been busy and out of the city for a while and he was left to take care of Cliff.-"Busy dad, yours huh."-He would whisper to him when he came around for cuddles.

Harry was aware that Louis was making a big step in his life, everything was indicating it. Shocking he had even broken up with Eleanore. His stunt-beard. How does the management team afford such move.

"There is something I am not seeing there Cliffy, isn't it!"-Harry asked his dog lowering his book and placing it on the table.-"What am I missing?"

It was weird, it looked like Louis all of a sudden was braking free, but from what and who? Why now? Why in such rush? Why so suddenly he was everywhere, as if screaming "I'm free!"

"Guess we can't have all answers can we."-Harry sighted at his dog.

He remembered the short letter from Jay that Zayn brought in... It had messed up with his mind so much, and he didn't understand half of what it meant.

...

Dear Harry!
I know when you'll be reading this, time might have passed and so have I. And I know one thing for sure a lot hasn't changed since the day they separated you and Louis from each other.
You might still be mad at Louis, and I am sure he hasn't told you anything yet...I know my son and I know you just as much.
But listen Harry, when the time comes and you two are free again, give a second chance to those who deserve it.
Trust me, you won't regret.
I love you as much as my son, and if Louis would had broken your heart on purpose I wouldn't have kept his side, as you too are just like my own.
There are things that you can't see for now, but once you know, you'll connect the dots yourself.

Forgive and Forget!
Love endlessly!
Jay.

In the beginning there where seasons that made Harry think it was written by Louis, but than again, he wasn't that desperate as to use such a sentimental person as a bridge to reach him.

But he was missing something, a big part. Something that happened the last time he saw Louis happy, years ago.

...

Flashbacks! (Harry's Pov.)

It was a sunny morning, they had lazily gotten up from their bed and where eating breakfast. The last breakfast. Harry remembered it clear as day.

"But Lou, I want babies!"-Harry had said sitting on the counter.

"One step at a time love!"-Louis said kissing him on the lips sweet and passionately than smiled that cheeky smile that Harry missed most.

But Harry could barely remember what happened next. Ringtone...Phone? Louis phone buzzed loudly. Yes a phone call!

"Take it Darling."-Harry had said going back to his pancakes keeping a narrowed look at Louis who went white as a sheet for a second. He ran to the balcony and after a short time he ran outside of the house.

Who had called? What made Louis so disturbed?

Than he remembered when he came back, with red eyes, tired and really touchy.

Louis opened the door with his key, slowly rolling the doorknob.-"Hi Sun."-He said his voice clearly shaky.

"Hello Love! You left in a hurry everything alright?"-Harry said knowing something must have happened but Louis isn't saying.

"Nothing Love, girls called, thought they had a problem thats all."-Louis said going over to Harry and kissing him in every corner of his face, Harry knew this was just for distraction but went with it.

"Why are you attacking me Louis!"-Harry said kissing him too.

"Why can't I love my angel?"-Louis said.-"Let's go on a dinner date! Remember that ferris wheel I said I hate, lets go ride that!"-Louis said his eyes clearly red, had he been crying?

End of Flashbacks.

...

What happened after Louis left the flat that day after the mysterious call? Who called Louis, and was it related to what happened the next day?

"Tell me Cliff what is your dad hiding from me!"-Harry asked his dog who whined softly.-"I don't know too."

Liam was supposed to come one of these days to take Cliff to Louis, but Harry figured out Louis was probably too busy with whatever he had started and didn't have time for Cliff.

"Your dad is weirdly mysterious."-Harry whispered at Clifford.

That's when the doorbell rang demandingly. Clifford curled on the sofa as Harry stood up to open it, his housekeeper had a day of today, he might as well open it himself.

The doorbell rang again and again becoming really annoying.

"Coming Coming."-Harry said as he opened the door slightly.

Speak of the Devil.

"Hi!"-The one person he would had never predicted to come on his doorstep, stood there with a guilty smile plastered sadly on his face. The pain that smile held agonized Harry for a second, than he became conscious of what was happening, not letting the blue eyes distract him again.-"Louis?"
