Merman In The Water - Larry Stylinson AU Merman!Louis

Chapter 28

[S/N] HELLO ONCE AGAIN AUDIENCE. WHERE WE LEFT OFF, THERE WAS LOTS OF FLUFF AND STUFF. And fair warning. BE PREPAAAAAARED.
[E/N]: BE PREPARED, BE PREPARED, AND UNLESS YOU’VE GOT A SPARE, YOU’VE GOT ONE LIFE SO HANDLE IT WITH CARE. (Hoodwinked, anyone? Yes? No?)
[S/N2] I was actually going for The Lion King. But that one works too! That freaking goat, man. He is my homie. ANYWAY…
[E/N2] Thirty-seven years ago, a witch done put a spell on me…
[S/N3] TURDY SEVEN. We should probably start this chapter. What say you guys?

"I think I'm going to go check out the town, see how much damage it did," Liam said, slipping on some flip flops. They all had been sitting in the living room with the back door propped open, cranking the radio to try and figure out of the storm truly had gone. And it had. It had completely vanished. Weather reporters were calling it a phenomenon. "And maybe try and see what people think made the storm vanish."

"I'll join you," Paul nodded. "Don't want you getting lost in case Louis' dad decides he's not done with his fit of rage."

"Can I come?" Niall asked, excitedly.

"There's going to be salt water every where, my boy," Paul interjected, watching Niall's excited face fall. "But I suppose you could go if you wore closed toe shoes and long pants."

"Yes!" The blonde boy cheered and Liam, chuckled as he grabbed Niall gently by the elbow and led him down the hall to change.

"I'll tag along, too," Zayn announced, turning his gaze onto Harry and Louis. They had taken up Liam and Zayn's usual place on the loveseat, and they were squished together on one side of it so they could have their limbs tangled together. "Mainly because I don't think these two are going anywhere and I don't want to be here alone with them."

Harry simply pressed his face happily against Louis' bicep, and Louis placed a fond kiss to Harry's hair. Paul chuckled, "That's alright. They can stay here in case anyone else shows up here to do what we're doing."

Eventually Niall and Liam returned from the hall, Niall in jeans and Converse that he clomped around the living room in, "These feel so heavy compared to the others. And there's no coolness getting to my toes!"

"You just have to wear them while we're out walking about. Seawater will be everywhere because of the storm, we don't want you sprouting a tail," Liam explained to the lad.

Paul went and pushed the back door open wider, removing the shoe keeping it from shutting. Zayn and Liam hurried out onto the deck, and Niall happily stomped after them. Paul chuckled, turning his attention back to Louis and Harry, "Alright lads... will you be alright here?"

Louis nodded, "I think we're good. Are we okay, Harry?"

Harry smiled at Louis, and then he smiled at his uncle, "Yeah Uncle Paul, we're good! I'll open the door and tell people where you are if they're asking. Do you think we'll be out of power for a while?"

"I'm thinking so, lad," Paul nodded. "But you've got candles, although the sun is out now, so I'll leave the door open to let some light in. We'll take the hurricane shutters off once we're sure the storm really is over."

With that, Paul and the other lads were walking off the porch and towards the front of the house, most likely in attempts to see if the golf cart was drivable. Louis turned his attention to his human, grinning largely at him, "Hello!"

Harry wrapped his arms tighter around Louis, "Hi, merprince."

"I love cuddling with you," Louis said slowly.

The curly haired boy only nuzzled closer, "I love cuddling with you, too."

"But I have to pee..."
