POV Louis

After months of waiting and a lot of patience, I can finally schedule Jacob's surgery.

And Harry's, Niall's and Viber's project is almost done. Harry has worked very hard on it, and I am really proud of him. Sometimes there were times when he did too much and overworked himself. But I kept an eye on him and tried to let him relax, every now and then.

We have now reached the point where he sleeps with me almost every night. Harry just doesn't want to take the step to move in with me yet, this is because Niall and Harry have apparently built a friendship over the years with the neighbor Hans. Hans doesn't have much money, so Harry promised to cook for him every night since they came to live in the same building.

He is way too sweet, but that's why I love him.

I never told Harry about Tess, but I have good reasons not to. Harry's panic attacks have become much less, and every day he becomes a lot more confident. And I don't want to bring that down. I also think he really trust me, he is really honest about how he is feeling. Or he admits honest when he had a nightmare. He never really wants to tell me what his nightmares are about. But he doesn't push me away like he always did before.

Nobody knows about the whole drama with Tess, except chief of course. Chief really pushed me at the beginning to be honest with Harry. And maybe he was right, but seeing how well Harry is doing, Chief never mentions it again.

I hear footsteps walking into the kitchen as I sit at the table with coffee.

I feel a smile on my face, when I see a boy with tousled brown curls and still sleepy eyes.

"Morning sleepyhead." I say as I walk towards Harry.

"Oh, no don't kiss me, morning breath." He says with a raspy morning voice, as he tries to push me away when I want to kiss him.

I smile at him and give him a playful slap on his ass. "Don't be crazy, I literally ate you out last night so I don't mind your morning breath."

"Louis!" Harry says embarrassed.

I grab his chin and kiss his soft full lips.

"You guys are fucking nasty." Niall jokes, as he and Zayn join us in the kitchen.

I roll my eyes. "Thats called a healthy relationship." I say, as I look at Harry who's now looking even more embarrassing at the ground with red cheeks.

"Yes, that's what we could hear last night." Zayn murmured.

"Okay! Anyways what are you guys going to do today?" Harry shoots up to change the subject.

"I'm going to the hospital, need some preparation for a patient." Zayn says.

"I wanted to go to the mall." Niall answers happy.

Harry looks at him. "Oh I will go with you, you in Lou?"

I feel warmth in my chest every time he calls me Lou.

"Im sorry sweetheart, I really want to but I really need to be in the hospital. There are still a lot of things that I need to be arranged regarding Jacob." I say disappointed.

Harry shrugs. "No its fine, I get it. Next time we can go."

Zayn then realizes something. "Hey, you guys had to work on the project right? Tomorrow are the results, and someone will be chosen who can assist during the surgery.

Niall and Harry both look at each other caught.

"Yeah, Well you know, it was kind of a lot." Niall murmured, when he runs his hands through his hair awkwardly.
