Louis' alarm sounds from his bedside table, causing him to sigh before he's moving slowly over to turn the annoying sound off. He rubs his eyes slowly, his mind going over all of his many plans for the day.
His daughter Emma would be running in any second now, she was never late.
He stands up slowly, his phone sounding. "Jesus, already... it's fucking 6 am."
Louis groans and answers it.
"Hey, it's Liam... you're still doing that speed dating tonight, right?"
"Jesus Christ," Louis sighs into the phone, "I forgot to put that on the schedule..."
"Like hell, you did," Liam is laughing into the phone, "I know you, Tommo. You keep a schedule for a schedule."
"Alright... fine, I didn't forget," Louis says slowly, "I guess, yeah... if I can make it out of the office..."
"It's not until 7... surely you'll be done," Liam says, "look, just text me later. I'll be leaving my office at 5."
"The perks of being a nurse and not a doctor," Louis jokes, "alright, I'll text you, Payno."
Louis ends the call the same time his 8 year old daughter is bouncing into the room.
"Daddy, I'm ready for school," she smiles up at him in that Doncaster accent, just like her father's.
"We have to do something with your hair, love," Louis smiles and shakes his head before guiding her to her bathroom down the hall.
She's standing looking in the mirror as he's brushing it slowly.
"Can you drop me off this morning? Or is Ms. Goodwin?" She asks him.
Louis brushes her hair before tying it back, "no, love, I'm taking you this morning. Don't worry."
"I don't like riding with her.. she doesn't even want you talking in the back seat," Emma grumbles and Louis can't help but chuckle at his daughter.
"Well, I can't help it sometimes," he says a little quieter, "I wish I could do it every morning."
Emma smiles again, "can we get breakfast this morning?"
Louis only smiles more, "sure. I wouldn't mind a little McDonald's myself. Just go get your bag, alright?"
Emma's bouncing down the hall to her room while Louis goes back to his room to get ready for another long day in the office.
He loves his job... he really does. Being a pediatrician isn't the easiest job in the world, but it is a job he loves to do. It's a passion he has always had.
