Chapter Twenty Five

Zoe's POV:

"No." I frowned, stomping off the porch. When I passed him, he grabbed my wrist softly.

"Zoe, listen to me." He said softly. I turned to him, and watched his expressions.

"Zoe, it makes sense." He stepped closer, grabbing my other wrist.

"It doesn't!" I exclaimed. He pressed his forehead to mine, and searched my eyes. My frown deepened as I took a step closer.

"You can't be afriad to make frightening choices, it makes life... life." He explained softly.

"We've been together for two weeks, Honesty turns five in two days." I reminded him.

"Don't you think she'd perfer her Birthday in a house, than a hotel? What about Christmas? Do you even have any of her presents with you?" His eyebrows raised. I wanted to take a step back, but when I almost did, his arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me flush against him.

"I can't do this, Louis. It's a huge step." I looked away from his green eyes.

"Zoe, we're technically going backwards. We already have a daughter." He pointed out. My shoulders slumped.

"You know you want to live with me, Zoe." He frowned.

"What is it about you that draws me in?" I sighed in defeat.

"Maybe it's my charm." He smiled cheekily.

"You're stupid." I laughed, kissing his lips slightly.

"You know you love it." He murmured against my lips. I giggled, and pressed my lips against his again.

"I need an official answer." He reminded me, leaning against the car. I sighed.

"Yes, I'll move in with you." I smiled. His eyes brightened, and his mouth found its way to mine again.

"Guys, that's like your fifth kiss, some people are actually hungry." Harry rolled down the window.

"Third time today, Harry." Louis growled. I looked at the moon that was trying to shine. I smiled contently as I placed Honesty in the car. I climbed in after her.

"Do you like that house?" I asked in a hushed whisper.

"I like Daddy." She replied. My heart swelled at her tone, grateful. She was so happy she finally had a Daddy, and I would do whatever it took to keep her feeling happy. I smiled at the sky and watched as the large city came back into view.

When we got to the place, it looked closed. Louis got out the car, and opened the door for me. I smiled and stepped out the car, unbuckling Honesty as I went. Louis grabbed my hand, while his other hand held Honesty. His hand went from tangled in mine to around my waist as we walked.

"I'm all alone." Harry frowned. I laughed, and Honesty wiggled her fingers.

"I'm open." She grinned. My laughter picked up volume.

"Harry?" I asked sweetly. He eyed my suspiciously as we approached the doors.

"What do you want?" He asked, his eyes narrowed.

"Can you please babysit Honesty tomorrow? Pleeease?" I pouted. He sighed, but nodded. We opened the doors to the empty restaurant.

"Hi." Louis smiled at the older woman behind the cash register.

"'Ello love, what will ya have?" She asked.

"Two strawberry milkshakes large, one chocolate milkshake small, one extra large vanilla, and four hamburgers all the way." He grinned. I raised a brow at his quick ordering.
