Harry had been gone for a week already and now Louis was on the plane back home. The past week he a had spent it with his family and Val and Shane in Dubai. It had been easy to forget for a while all that had happened surrounded by the love of family and friends. For long periods of time he could forget the pain or more likely the pain was numbed by his mother and grandfather and his six siblings. He had missed his family so much.He especially spent a lot of time with the little ones, Doris and Ernie. They were growing up so fast and he was missing out on all of it so he took this time to focus on them, play with them, take care of them and spoil them rotten. And Jay, even though she didn't believe in spoiling children, had let him.

Val and Shane got along very well with his family and Adam was quite happy to spend time with his youngest twin siblings. He had baby sat all three of them while his mother, Dan, Shane and Val had gone out on dates. He knew perfectly well that his mother was picking Val's brain to try and find out how her son really was but he was safe knowing that Val would not reveal anything he didn't want his mother to know and would only tell her things to put her mind at ease.

Louis was happy to sit by the pool, sip a beer and watch his happy family enjoy the life he could so easily offer them. He watched as the twins Daisy and Phoebe splashed in the pool, Fizzy sunbathing, his mum and Dan with Doris and Ernie in the kiddie pool, Lottie who was somewhere with her boyfriend Tommy and he felt a surge of love for them and was content that he could treat them all to this life. He remembered how much his mother had sacrificed to raise them all and Louis just wanted to giveback.

He tried not to think too much about Harry. Two days ago he had said goodbye to Anne and Robin who had stayed on for a few days at the insistence of Jay. She and Anne were really close and they had missed each other very much.Louis knew they were both hurting for their separation too and it killed him that their families were hurting as well. Anne had hugged him really tightly and told him not to lose faith in Harry, that Harry will always always love him no matter how hard the situation right now might be. Robin had clapped him on the back and told him simply that love always finds its way back to love. Gemma had left right after the concert. As soon as she saw how her brother had been rendered yet another mess at his hands, she just flew back home and not said one word to him.

But at night, when his parents where in their own room, his siblings all tucked in bed and he returned to his empty suite, it was then that the real torment began. It was then that Harry came back to life and his memory tormented Louis while his mind conjured up images of Harry in Jeff's arms until he cried himself to sleep every single night, calling out for Harry in the dark of night but Harry never came.

As soon as the plane landed in Heathrow, all Louis wanted was to get home. The home he still shared with Harry. He was a bit reluctant to go back there but he figured that he had enough memories of Harry in his head that a few more connected to the house they once called home weren't going to hurt him anymore than he already was.
