Can We Start It All Over Again? (Louis Tomlinson)

Chapter 5

"What?" I asked and turned to face him.

"I've missed you" He said again.

"Then why didn't you come back after two years and why did you send that letter ending things between us?"

"Because I couldn't face you and then leave you again" He said and looked down at the floor.

"Oh, yeah?"

"Yeah"

"Well..I did miss you. At the start. Then I got over it. Then I got the letter and then I cried every night, not on the days though because of my children. And then I got over that too. Simple as that"

I left him standing there.

In the middle of his sons room.

"Mummy and uncle Harry. This tastes really good"

"Well thank you honey" I said and kissed the top of Troy's head.

"Eeew mum!" He said in a disgusted tone and me, Liam, Harry, Niall and Lucas giggled.

I had just sat down when Louis decided to join us.

"Mummy doesn't like when people are late for dinner" Lucas said looking at Louis.

"I'm sorry" He breathed out. He looked really tired.

"Is everything okay?" Liam asked him.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine" He answered.

"Well...me and Liam thought we'd start working on the songs for the wedding tomorrow" Harry said.

"Wait, I never said yes" I said looking at Harry

"No, but I said yes for you sis. You'll do great"

"Are you gonna sing mummy?" Troy asked me

"Yes honey. I am" I sighted

"I love when you sing mummy. You're so good" Troy continued

"Good thing you said that young man" Harry smirked at me. I frowned at him. "Now we can use that against you"

"That's not fair" I complained.

"Sometimes life's just not fair" Harry smirked at me.

We all went to bed early that night.

Me in my room.

Lucas and Troy in their room

Harry and Liam in one of my guest rooms.

And Louis and Niall in my other guest room.

I laid awake almost all night thinking about Louis.

He doesn't love me.

But, he acts like we're friends.

Or like he does love me.

Does he?

He is really good with the kids.

That's a good thing.

In the middle of my thinking session I must have fallen asleep because I woke up a loud bang and then someone crying. I got so scared and got my robe and then rushed down the stairs.

There, in the middle of my living room, sat Lucas crying with Louis hugging him.

Lucas looked up and saw me and ran to me.

"Mummy"

"What happened?"

"I fell from the couch"
