"Lou, wake up." Harry said softly and pressed light kisses on his neck and shoulders.

"Stop Hazza, I'm sleeping." Louis grunted and then he drew in a sharp breath and sat up. "Holy guacamole! I slept! That's so cool."

Harry burst out in a fit of giggles.
"We really need to work on your expressions. Holy guacamole?"

Louis shrugged his shoulders with a sheepish smile and laid down again to give Harry a kiss. After a light peck, Harry turned his head away.
"Morning breath sweetie."

Louis put his hand over his mouth and breathed on it. He made a face.
"That's awful. Wait, I gonna brush my teeth."

He jumped out of bed with so much energy that Harry rolled his eyes at him. Was this how his life would be from now on? An excited ex-Angel who ran around like a chicken on ecstasy? He still had a hard time grasping that Louis was human now.

He better brush his teeth too so he got up and headed to the bathroom. Louis hadn't locked the door so he stepped inside just to find him staring down his boxers. 
"Lou?"

Louis looked up with fear written all over his face.
"I think my penis broke. It's hard but I'm not aroused."

Harry had to hold back his laughter.
"It's not broken. That happens in the mornings."

"Why?" Louis questioned.

Harry reached for his toothbrush and thought about it.
"I don't know why."

"How can you not know why? You just accept that it happens? It's weird." Louis said, looking upset.

"I can google it if that makes you feel better and Louis? Penis sounds so...there's other words, like dick or cock."

"That sounds vulgar." Louis answered.

"Okay, just say penis then." Harry giggled before he put the toothbrush in his mouth and began to brush his teeth. Louis followed his example.

They sat down to eat breakfast and Louis made humming sounds after every spoon of cereals.
"I love this!"

"Good to know." Harry smiled as he googled morning erections. He hoped no one saw his google history.
"So, morning erections seems to be a combination between high testosterone and the sacral nerve system, part of your parasympathetic nervous system, which controls erections."

"It sounds like a natural cause at least." Louis grinned.

"Yeah. Lou, I have to go to school soon. It's my first day. Will you be okay here by yourself?" Harry asked softly.

"Yeah of course! School is important. Don't worry about me. I'll watch some tv or something now that I can actually control what I want to see." Louis grinned.

Harry got up and kissed him.
"We're gonna figure everything out. You have a whole life of possibilities ahead of you. You just have to find out what you wanna do. I'm gonna take care of you. I love you."

"I love you too but I hope I'll be able to take care of you too?" Louis said sincerely.

"Absolutely." Harry smiled.

He hurried to get dressed and showed Louis how the remote control worked before he headed to his first class. He would spend the rest of the school day worrying about Louis all alone. There wasn't exactly a manual on how to handle these kinds of situations. It wasn't like he had met another fallen angel before. Or maybe he had? He guessed it wasn't something you talked about without being sent to a mental hospital.

In the meantime, Louis was getting bored. He had spent ten minutes watching some cooking show on tv before he turned it off. He was alive for Christ's sake! He wasn't gonna spend his life locked inside a room, waiting for Harry. He knew how the world worked. He wasn't a total moron.

He had watched from the sideline for a very long time. He had attended every class in school with Harry and the ones he guarded before that so he believed he was well-informed when it came to certain things, and others he was on a total loop, like this morning erection thing. Totally fascinating. He probably had a lot to learn when it came to the human body, and mind. Sex, for example, sex between two men. How was that supposed to work? He knew, hypothetically how it worked, but it was scary. Wouldn't it hurt? Great, now he had to poop too.

After a bathroom break and a very strange first experience, he decided to get dressed. He needed to get one of those jobs so Harry wouldn't have to pay for everything. Money was important in a society, which he thought was stupid. Why not just share things? If he had a cow he could give people milk in exchange for things he needed. Very simple. Then everyone could just decide what they wanted to do and the world would be a better place. Maybe he was naive?

He headed outside and strolled down the street, taking it all in. He said hi to everyone he met but only half of them greeted him back. Strange.

He walked into the first coffee shop he could find and marched up to the counter with a big smile on display.
"Hi, I want to work here. When can I start?"

The woman behind the counter gave him a confused look but then she found a form and handed it over.
"Write your information here and we'll get back to you."

Louis got a pen as well and sat down at one of the tables. He looked at the form. He could read and write, of course, but after filling in his first name he wrinkled his eyebrows. He couldn't answer any of the questions, simply because he hadn't an answer to give. He didn't have a surname, he had no address or telephone number and he had no idea what a social security number was. He didn't even have a birthday. He sighed and put the paper in his pocket. Harry would have to help him with that.
"I'll be back!" He informed the woman behind the counter before he went outside to explore the campus.
