Cupcakes, Curls & Cuddles

Chapter 8

The next morning Louis is woken up to the sounds of little feet padding their way across his bedroom floor and a small body climbing on top of his bed whispering "Dadee! Dadee!" A small finger pokes him in the side. "Dadee who dat?" Louis grumbles smooshing his face in his pillow before turning to slowly open his eyes to a mop of curly hair. 

A smile creeps on his face when he realizes that he is cuddled up to Harry, the younger boys head is nuzzled on top of Louis arm. "Morning munchkin." he mumbles turning to face his daughter. "Dadee who dat?" Cassie asks again cocking her head to the left. 

Louis smiles at the adorableness of his daughter, her dirty blonde hair messily falling out of her ponytail, sleep evident in the corner of her eyes. "Oh love that's Harry, he had a sleepover last night." He explains hoping that she doesn't get too upset. 

That worry was quickly gone, when she let out a loud squeal and climbed off of Louis and onto Harry's back. " 'Arreh!!" Louis hold back a chuckle as Harry looks around in confusion before spotting a small little girl sitting on his lap. "Oh good morning munchkin." Harry smiles sleepily at the girl. 

Cassie lets out a small giggle before getting a serious look on her face. "Goob mowning 'Arreh you habe seep obew with Dadee?" Cassie pouts. Louis frowns noticing the pout on his daughters face. "Baby girl what's wrong? why are you pouting?" He sits up in the bed allowing Cassie to climb into his lap. 

"Me sad, Dadee and 'Arreh habe a sweep obew wif out Cassie and 'uddling wif out Cassie" she sticks her lip out a little more eyes widening. Louis bites back a chuckle and eyes Harry over her head who seems to be doing the same thing. Louis moves Cassie to sit in between himself and Harry who had since sat up in the bed. He allowed her to be snuggled between the two of them. "I'm sorry baby girl, next time Dadee and will make sure you are here for the sleepover with Harry." Louis smiles softly while Harry tickles her side. 

Cassie lets out a giggle, wiggling away from Harry's touch. "Tank you Dadee." Cassie raises to her knees kissing Louis cheek. "I am sorry too munchkin, how about I make a nice breakfast to make up for it?" Harry grins at Cassie, her eyes lighting up at the idea of having breakfast with Harry. "yesh pwease 'Arreh!" Cassie kisses turns on her knees and kisses Harry's cheek. "tan we 'uddle fow a bit?" she pleads. 

Louis smiles over at her "Of course we can love, that okay Harry?" he looks over at Harry raising his eyebrows. "I love cuddling" Harry grins. Cassie claps her hands in excitement, she waits for Louis and Harry to get comfortable on their pillows before settling back in between them, she snuggles into Louis with her back to him, facing Harry. She reaches out to run her hair through Harry's hair, twirling the curls around her finger, her thumb on her free hand into her mouth. Harry smiles allowing his arm to settle across Cassie, landing on Louis, running his fingers slowly up and down Louis arms. 

Louis's stomach feels warm with contentment, he could honestly get use to mornings like this with Cassie and Harry, that partly scares him but also excites him. He doesn't know what is going to happen in the future but he is excited to see what will happen with Harry. Shit he is falling for the younger Curly haired boy already. Louis allows himself to spend the next hour, taking in the green eyed boys features, the way his curls fall gently against his face, his sharp jawline, his eye lashes fluttering against his cheekbones. He listens to Harry and Cassie fall into easy hushed conversations. 

"Lou... you are staring." Harry blushes looking up from his conversation with Cassie. shit... he was caught. "Sorry..." Louis's cheeks heat up. "It's okay I don't mind." Harry giggles and if Louis wasn't blushing before he definitely was now. "What do you say we get up and make us some breakfast now?" Harry asks. 

"I hewp?" Cassie asks looking up at Harry with pouty eyes while pointing to herself. "I would love your help!" Harry grins. With another giggle of approval from Cassie, the three are climbing out of bed and heading downstairs into Louis's kitchen. Louis allows himself to get comfy on the island, where he has a perfect view of his little girl who's smile has not left her face since spotting Harry an hour ago, and Harry the boy who seems to bring smiles to everyone around her.
