Life Goes On

Only you know (3)

"Louis Tomlinson whats on you're mind?" I visibly stiffen in my seat. Damn, My mum is good.

"A lot" I reply simply. She rolls her eyes at me. I sigh as I think of a way to explain why I asked her to come with me.

"Where do I begin Mum?" I sigh dramatically. This would be a lot simpler if I was good with my words. Ive always struggled explaining how I feel. Thats why at the beginning it was so hard for Harry and I. I couldn't express what I was feeling. I had no clue what I was feeling.

"Could this have to do with Harry?" she questions. turning her head to face me. I sigh once again and Nod my head. Silently telling her it did.

"Look Mum, I want to." I start off but she interrupts.

"You want to propose!"

"uh..." I stumble awkwardly. How did she know?

"It's pretty obvious Lou, how long have y'all be together, like five years now. We were all waiting for it."

"Eight years actually, and How should I do it?" I question, biting my lips. I quickly glance at her and then back at my road.

"That's up to you Hun, make it memorable though." I see her smile. We pull up to the mall after about five full minutes of silence. I was to busy thinking about Harry to talk. I think mum knew that too.

"Will you help me pick out a ring?" I question, unbuckling my seatbelt and sliding out of my seat.

"Of course!" She smiles happily. I smile a huge relived smile and hug my mummy. Happy to be back home.

"What about this one?" We were now in the jewelry store and I was looking at some plain simple gold bands. Harry was a man, I'm not going to get home some girly ring. If anyone is the girl in the relationship it's me in all honestly.

I'm the little spoon, I get my way, Harry spoils me, and when we were younger I even crossed dressed. Not so much anymore but on occasions I may wear a little makeup.

"Mum!" I gasp. Shocked by the perfect ring in her hand. The ring was a silver band, with a heart etched into the inside. It left an imprint of a heart when it's off.

"It's absolutely perfect." I sighed. Taking it from her. I smile at the sales lady before smiling lazily to myself. It's just perfect!

"How much for this one?" I question. Already knowing I'm getting it no matter what the price.

"well it's real gold! So it's about 61.06 pounds. 14k is really expensive right now."

(A/N it's 84$ in USA currency) :)

"Perfect! That's not bad at all. Alright so he wears a size eight in rings."

After buying the ring, mum and I walked through the mall. We went to the candy store, because we're both children here, and we bought some yummy looking candy apples for everyone.

We continued to shop and I bought me and Harry a new shirt each. I saw one that was pink with white polka spots, and I just knew he had to have it.

We finally get home about 6:30 that night, and Harry was curled up with Earnie and Dorris in his lap, and the credits of beauty and the beast was rolling. All three were asleep and the older girls were upstairs.

I start quietly cleaning my mums house of any toys they got out when they were playing. When I was finished, I swept into the kitchen and made sure the dishes were done and the board game was put away. Finally I help mom carry the twins to their bedroom and when I walked back towards the living room, I slid into the girls den and hugged them goodbye, pressing kisses to their foreheads. 

I walk to mom and whisper slowly as I pull her in a hug "only you know mom. Do not tell anyone. You know how news travels." I kiss her on the cheek and I move to the living room to my sleeping prince.

"Haz, baby lets go home." I say, shaking his shoulder gently. I could feel moms presence in the room but chose to ignore it while waking him up.

"Harold." I whisper again, and he giggles sleepily. He sits up and stretches before blindly reaching for his old boots.

"Okay love, will you drive?" He mummers, I agree ecstatically and he laughs quietly. We both kiss my mummy on the forehead and wish them a goodnight, before making it back to our car. I slide into the drivers side and buckle up, patiently waiting on Haz to get in the passenger side. Once he settles we're on our way home.

I look towards him, and suddenly I know exactly how I am going to propose to the boy.
