Merman In The Water - Larry Stylinson AU Merman!Louis

Chapter 13

[A/N]: Hiiii! We may live in the same room, but we apparently still suck at updating D: We're sorry! ANYWAY this chapter is dedicated to ILIVEANDBREATHEFOR1D for making the multimedia! Woo! Onward!

The lads gradually left the pier, taking the mermen back to the rocks in the golfcart.  Zayn and Liam said farewell to the two departing boys, telling Niall that it was nice to meet him. As they ruffled Niall's hair and joked with him a bit, Harry clung onto Louis, a frown evident on his face.

"So you'll be back tomorrow?"

"Definitely," Louis agreed, inhaling the smell of Harry's hair deeply to try and ingrain it into his mind. "I had a lot of fun today!"

"Today was one of the best days of my life," Harry said softly, brushing Louis' fringe off of his forehead. "We're um... you're my boyfriend now. That's so weird to say."

Louis frowned, "Do you not like it?"

"Oh God, I love it! Good weird. It's a good weird."

"Alright, new lovebirds," Zayn chuckled. "Louis and Niall have to go back now."

Harry sighed heavily, "Too bad I don't live down there with you..."

"Harry!" Liam said in exasperation. "You've only been officially together for a day, you can do this. It's going to be okay."

Louis chuckled, wrapping his arms tightly around Harry's waist and pressing his face against the taller boy's neck, "But I will be back tomorrow, even if my dad tries to make me stay in the castle. Will you bring me clothes to change into?"

"Me too!" Niall crowed. "I want some clothes, too! And shoes, maybe?"

"Yes," Zayn laughed. "You both will have clothes and shoes."

Harry nuzzled his face into Louis' hair, nodding, "As long as you come back."

The younger boy felt lips press against his jaw in promise, "I will. I'm going home to sleep, Harry, not going to fight in a war against the swordfish."

"Don't do that either," Harry laughed, and Liam and Zayn shared confused glances.

Niall started stripping his clothes wobbly, "Well... it's now or never, Lewis! Let's get a move on!"

Louis gave Harry one last tight squeeze, but Harry grabbed onto his hand, "Wait... can I kiss you again?"

"You don't have to ask," Louis murmured, scooting closer and craning his neck to gently brush his lips against Harry's.

Harry smiled softly as Louis pulled back, "Tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow, Harry," Louis nodded.

Niall huffed, "Louis."

Louis rolled his eyes, starting to shed out of his clothing. Harry cheekily stepped up to unbutton Louis' pants, and the older boy giggled slightly, "Well... this is a lot sooner than anticipated."

"No," Liam scolded. "None of that, not this soon. Give it a few months. Or years."

"You and Zayn did not wait that long!" Harry accused, laughing as he gave Louis more privacy to strip down.

"I'm out," Niall groaned, falling dramatically into the water with a splash.

"We did so!" Liam said firmly. "Right Zayn?"

"Um..." Zayn pursed his lips. "I think after about three weeks I gave you a-"

"Don't listen to Zayn," Liam interrupted. "You two should be heading back down."
