Chapter 18

A/n: okay so there's going to be a lot of fluff and a lot of detailed smut. See you all in hell :) x

*flashback*

''Haz, Haz, come here baby brother and wear your god damn Santa hat!'' Gem was pouting as Harry giggled and ran away, bumping into his dad while their mother cursed from the kitchen, ''Gemma Styles, no cursing on Christmas Eve!''

They both looked at each other and broke out into a fit of laughter, holding onto their tummies while they watched their mothers hand disappear into the turkey.

''That looks really funny, mom.'' Harry smiled shyly before his eyes were suddenly covered with a white and red fabric causing him to squeal.

''Harry, you know there always has to be a Santa cap on your head on Christmas Eve. It is a written rule,'' Gemma grinned and leaned down to press a kiss to her 12-year-old brothers cheek.

*flashback end*

Harry's bottom lip quivered as his green eyes switched from Gem to his dad and finally to his mother. He so often wished to talk to them again. To see them. Hug them. But he knew he wouldn't be welcome.

''Pinch me, Lou'' He said very quietly, eyes falling down to his feet as a racked sob made it's way through his chest.

It couldn't be true. His eyes must be playing tricks on him.

''T-They're not really here, a-are they? A-am I seeing things now?'' Harry looked up at Louis with big green eyes as if he believed he'd go crazy. Why would his family be in Louis' home? They hated him, right?

''Harry, my love, shh. I called them.. did a little research. Contacted them and invited them over. They know Harry. And it's okay. I am here..'' He smiled and kissed Harry's cheek causing the younger boy to blush and nod. Louis was there.

He slowly turned his head again, seeing how his mother was all teared up. He probably made a very weird impression on them..

''Oh Harry.. my boy.'' She whimpered lightly and walked over, the other two were following her slowly not wanting to scare the younger boy even more than it was necessary.

''M-mommy?'' He whispered out, voice cracking before he finally wrapped his arms around his smaller mother, hugging her to his chest as he buried his face in her neck and cried as he inhaled her scent.

Louis' heart melted and he blinked against his own tears. It was hard seeing Harry like this. But he knew that Harry was happy.

''I-I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it I-,'' he sobbed out before his mother stroked soothingly over his back and kissed his temple with a soft smile ''Harry, I know. We know. And it's okay.. now. Oh god what did he do to you..'' His mother's fingers were brushing through his long curls as she pressed kiss after kiss on her son's cheek.

She couldn't believe that she had her son back.

''I'm sorry..'' He sniffled again, feeling his sister and dad join him and his mother and soon they all laid in each other's arms, crying and smiling and hugging.

Harry looked up from the chaos to find Louis smiling at them.

''Thank you..'' He whispered to Louis who smiled softly.

''Oh Harry I'm so happy you're back, we tried to find you but you m-moved away and there was no trace of you.. We looked for you Harry, all the time..'' His mother whispered and smiled softly, pulling back to let her son breathe.

Harry smiled shyly and tucked some of his strands behind his hair.

''God you look so handsome..'' His mother cooed and tapped his nose softly causing the curly lad to pout ''mum..'' He smiled though and turned to his dad. He wasn't one to speak much. But when he did, he meant it.
