"I love you." Louis said as he walked into the kitchen.

Harry dropped the spatula, making the pasta sauce splash all over the counter. He turned around with a happy smile.
"I love you too!"

"Good, I wanted to make it perfectly clear that I'm in love with you because we have to talk about this." Louis said softly.

Harry's face dropped.
"Is it the closeting?"

"No. Come on. Let's sit." Louis said.

Harry turned off the stove and they took a seat at the kitchen table. Louis reached out and took Harry's hand.
"I'm okay with the closeting. We could still be a couple in private, right? Like, among friends and family?" He asked.

"Of course!" Harry immediately answered.

"I'm okay with the fake girlfriends and stunts too, I mean, I don't like it, but I wouldn't let it bother me because I know it's not real." Louis continued.

"So, what's the problem then?" Harry asked.

"Well, first of all, I don't want to work for you and be your boyfriend at the same time. That would make me feel like a dirty mistress." Louis smirked.

"You want to be my boyfriend?" Harry asked with a happy grin.

"Well, yeah, if you want me to?" Louis asked.

"I want you to!" Harry shouted and kissed the freckle on Louis's hand.

"I'm glad to hear that, but here's the thing, I don't want to be away from you weeks or months at a time. I mean, you're gonna tour your new album, right? And I don't wanna be a 50's housewife who just follows you around and make you pay for everything because I'm unemployed. I want to have a job too. How will we make that work?" Louis questioned.

"I want you to be able to pursue your dreams as well, and do whatever you want to. It will be tricky. So, what do you wanna do for a living? Let's start there." Harry said.

Louis hesitated.
"This is gonna sound stupid because I have zero experience but I would like to start my own management. Treat artists better, you know?"

"I think that's a wonderful idea and you just signed your first artist." Harry grinned.

"Huh?" Louis asked dumbfounded.

"My contract with my current management ends soon and I want a new one, you to be more specific." Harry explained.

"That would make me your boss." Louis pointed out.

"It sure would. I can't wait to be called into the office when I've behaved badly." Harry winked.

Louis burst out laughing.
"I'm sure you would love that, but all jokes aside, are you serious? I have no idea how to run a management, heck, I don't even have a management at the moment."

"I'm sure you will be great at it and I will help you in any way I can. So, do you want me as a client? You can say no, if that would complicate things, but for the record, I would have no trouble working for you." Harry smiled.

"And that means that I could go on tour with you. I can work from anywhere." Louis smiled. There was actually a way to make this work.

"And, when you're ready for more clients I can tip you off on a couple of more artists that are closeted by their label and management, I mean, if you want a specific clientele." Harry said.

"Yeah! I would like to try and help them in any way I can. Make it more humane or whatever." Louis said excitedly.

"Good. God knows this industry needs it. So, are you quitting as my driver right away?" Harry asked.

"No, we have one and a half month left here. I would like to be your driver during that time." Louis answered.

"What about being my boyfriend then?" Harry asked.

"That too." Louis beamed.

Harry got up and flopped down in Louis's lap and kissed him. When they needed to come up for air Harry cupped Louis's cheek and caressed it with his thumb.
"I'm so happy."

Louis rubbed their noses together before he kissed the tip of Harry's nose.
"Me too. I have never been in love before." He admitted.

Harry broke out in a dimpled smile, knocking the air out of Louis's lungs from how beautiful he was.
"Dinner?"

"I totally forgot about that. Yeah. I'm just gonna heat it." Harry said and jumped off to get back to the stove.

Louis got his phone out and texted Niall.
It went well.

He got a reply in an instant.
Yaay! I'm so happy for you. I can't wait to meet him.

"My friend Niall wants to meet you." Louis informed.

"He knows about us?" Harry questioned.

"Yeah, sorry. I had to talk to someone, but he would never tell anyone." Louis apologized.

"I'm looking forward to meeting him, and I think you should come to the studio tomorrow and meet the band." Harry smiled as he carried the food to the table.

"I already met them." Louis pointed out.

"Yes, but not as my boyfriend." Harry smirked and Louis's stomach turned into butterflies. He was someone's boyfriend. More importantly, he was Harrys boyfriend.

They sat down to eat and they spent the next of the evening making out in front of the tv before they headed to the bedroom and made love.

The next morning Harry dragged Louis with him to the studio. The rest of the band was already there.
"Guys! Louis is my boyfriend now!" Harry announced proudly as soon as they entered the room.

A lot of hugs and congratulations followed after that and Louis was glad that they accepted his new role without hesitation.
"You better play him the songs you wrote about him." Mitch said.

Louis looked at Harry.
"More songs?"

Harry blushed adorably.
"Yeah, do you want to hear them?"

"Absolutely." Louis agreed.

Harry played him three songs named Adore you, Lights up and Sunflower, volume 6, and Louis was absolutely baffled. No one has ever written a song about him before, and Harry seemed to base his album on him. He hugged him tightly and whispered
"Thank you. I love them and I love you."
