Chapter 76
Tuesday March 14th
Harry's POV

"You look so pretty" I complimented her.

It was early, and Lennon was standing at the bathroom sink getting ready for her day of work. I woke up alongside her, and decided this morning I just wanted to hang out with her. I love spending time with her, whether we're intentionally hanging out, or just keeping her company while she's straightening her hair. I would do anything if It meant I would be with her.

"Thank you" her cheeks flushed red.

"I was thinking of taking the kids to the indoor trampoline park, is that okay?" I just wanted to double check after yesterday's fiasco.

"Yeah of course" She turned to smile at me. "You don't have to ask"

"I just figured I would after yesterday, and cause you're mom" I shrugged.

"You're dad" She raised her eyebrows at me.

My mouth went dry. "W-well yeah but like, the twins, so I just"

"What about them?" She tilted her head at me, a sly smile on her face.

"Well, I'm not their dad" I looked at her.

"You're so cute" She giggled, getting closer to me and kissing my cheek.

"Are you okay with this?" I furrowed my brows at her. We've briefly discussed the fact that I'd be the babies stepdad, but in my mind, I still just feel like Harry to them. Now she's standing here implying that I'm dad, and I didn't expect it. I mean I'm honored and I know Lennon has been making great progress recently with her grieving journey, but I didn't want her to do too much all at once. She took off her ring, got into a relationship, and now this?

I'm insanely proud of her, I just wanted to make sure it was on her terms.

"I am. Obviously, I would want for them to call you what they're comfortable with, but clearly we know how Delia feels" She chuckled. "But you're the person I trust most with them. I mean that"

"That means a lot to me" I cupped my hands around the back of her neck, my fingers running through the underside of her hair. I leaned down to reach her height and kissed her softly. I'll never get over how perfectly her lips feel alongside mine.

After a couple more quick kisses, she insisted she had to finish getting ready so she could leave us for the entire day. I took my spot back on the toilet seat and waited for her to be done, just making meaningless conversation.

She left shortly later, leaving the house quiet for now. It won't remain that way once the kids are awake, but for now I'll relish in it. I laid down on the couch and scrolled through my phone, I had about an hour until they would wake up. I also went through the list of promotion opportunities that Olivia had given to me and debated some of them.

Ultimately, I didn't find any that I felt strongly enough about to do, especially after what happened yesterday. I'll do the one talk show with William Spicer as I already told her I would do it, but otherwise, I want to lay low until the movie comes out. Then I'll attend premiers and all.

I heard the sound of a door opening and knew it was either Theo or my mum. Due to Theo never wanting to leave his bed in the morning, I figured it was more than likely my mum who had woken up this early.

"Good morning" I was correct, it was my mum.

"Hey mum" I smiled. "You're up early"

"Time change and all of that" She smiled, and went to the kitchen to make some coffee. "Everyone still asleep?"
