A Promise Worth Keeping (Larry AU)

Chapter 5

For some weird reason, Louis wasn't enjoying his date like usual. Of course, he really liked Amanda, he had to because if it worked out for her and him then Harper would have another parent in the house, making things easier.

He met Amanda, about five months ago when he went out of the country for a business trip. She was working in a company in London that was partnered with Louis' company, so, therefore, they were both at the meeting and kinda hit it off from there. Louis thought that she was extremely beautiful and sweet. So he asked her out and they started dating.

Today was their four-month anniversary and Louis wanted to take her out. But something was different because he wasn't paying any attention to her really, he couldn't take his mind off of that curly haired boy, to be honest, and it was bothering him. He tried pushing Harry out of his mind and eventually succeeded. He had all his attention on his girlfriend for the rest of the night. That was until he went home after dropping Amanda home, he went to Harper's room to see her and Harry on the bed. His heart melted at the sight in front of him.

Harper never got along with any of her nannies before. She would always complain to him about how mean they are and that she didn't like them. But this with Harry is very different and that made him very happy because if he couldn't be there for his daughter at times, then he was glad that he had someone who could.

He walked over to her bed, pulling up the Disney princess sheets and covering both of them than kissing Harper's forehead, making sure not to wake them up. He stopped at the doorway glancing at them before turning off the lights and closing the door.

He went to his own room, changed into some plaid pajama pants and a white t-shirt. He buried his head in his pillow and quickly fell asleep dreaming about someone. Someone with curls and green eyes to be more specific.

Harry woke up to the sound of giggles whispers filling the air. He groaned a little while rubbing his eyes and when he finally opened them, he saw Harper and Louis standing by the bed, on his side. He took in his surroundings and noticed that he wasn't in his room.

"Morning Harry" Louis laughed while Harper jumped on the bed.

"Louis I'm sorry I didn't me-"

"It's fine Harry, she was telling me how you sang to her last night and how much fun he had with you" Louis smiled then continued "Harper loves you"

"So, you're not mad about the whole me sleeping in here thing?" Harry asked in confusion.

"No, you look cute in the morning" he smiled making Harry blush.

Harry said good morning to Harper then got up. He saw that Harper was already dressed and Louis also. He had on black skinny jeans and a button up shirt while Harper had on a blue dress on, with flats and her brown hair was put in a ponytail.

"wait, did I wake up late? are you guys leaving now?" Harry asked.

Louis shook his head "no, we're gonna wait on you, why don't you get ready then join us downstairs for breakfast?' Louis asked and Harry nodded leaving the room going to his across the hallway.

Harry took a quick shower the got dressed after brushing his teeth. He decided to wear black skinny jeans, black boots, a white t-shirt with a red flannel. He eyed himself in the mirror and figured that he wasn't dressed to formal or too casual. He grabbed his phone and wallet and headed downstairs. He got a text from Niall saying how he hasn't seen him in ages and how he missed him. Harry's only been gone for two days now and Niall being the drama queen he was made it seem like they haven't seen each other for over a year.
