Just A Lightweight[larry stylinson]

Chapter 6 || Toys and Bad News ||

   There was a horrible feeling of pain and irritation in my chest. I couldn't understand what could have caused it, but I did understand that I hated this feeling!

Telling Mrs. Thompson that I felt ill, she let me go before I could finish and told me to come back whenever I felt alright.

Walking out in the heavy, white snow, I suddenly remembered mum.

SHE GAVE BIRTH TO THE TWINS LAST NIGHT!

That explains the missed calls I received so early in the morning(4:24 am) from an unknown number.

Just then, I walked right in front of a big toy shop that was flooded with children and their parents. The whole store was big and with massive golden teddy bears sitting on both sides of the entrance and no, it wasn't just massive, they were giant, and I mean fifteen to eighteen feet tall that weigh tons.

I walked through the doors and was amazed. There were toy airplanes that hung on the ceiling with string, some airplanes were flying around, the ceiling was painted blue and had glow in the dark stars and moon, the walls were red, there were tons of toys just moving around and books and children!

Quickly catching a glimpse of a Cutesie Plushie stuffed animal like her rabbit toy, I grabbed a pink cat with pink and purple buttons for eyes.

Heading it straight to the cashier, I pressed the bell and a loud ding emitted from it.

Suddenly, a man with curly hair stood up straight from under the wooden, red table.

It was the guy from the super market. This time, instead of wearing a grey jumper, black skinny jeans and grey boots, he wore black skinny(not skin tight jeans like the other ones) jeans, a striped black and white polo tucked in and black suspenders. His red name tag had his name on it written in gold.

" Harry? Nice name. I've seen you before. " I said with a smile.

" You're the one with the kid and Nutella, right? Hey, good to see you mate. For the kid?" He asked pointing at the toy.

" Yeah. Her birthday is this Friday. We have this little celebration on Friday night. Do you want to - err - come?" I asked timidly.

" This Friday night? Sure. Here, have my number," he handed me a card from his pocket. " and text me the time and address. It's seven pounds." he smiled.

" Thanks, Harry. Here, with an extra pound for you." I smirked and winked at him jokingly. He chuckled and took it before putting the toy in a box and wrapping it and giving me the receipt.

" You're awesome.. By the way I never got your name." He mentioned.

" It's Louis, Louis Tomlinson. " I smiled.

" Cool name, I'm Harry Styles... I know you knew my name, just wanted to mention my last name too." He chuckled.

I laughed slightly and nodded.

" Alright mister Styles. I'll call you later. I must go now. Bye." I greeted.

" Bye, Louis." He smiled.

I grabbed the box and walked out and towards my street.

Quickly sprinting in and up to my door, I placed the box on the coffee table and called my mum.

After three beeps, my dad answered.

" Dad? Hi, how are you? How's mum?" I asked with a smile. Suddenly, I heard sobs. I heard his muffled sobs on the other side of the line.

" The babies are okay. Twins and girls.. Your mother, however.. she - she didn't make it. " He started to sob even stronger. Everything was blocked out and slowed down. I felt light headed and my heart ached.

Quickly trying to grip on something so I don't faint, I shook my head and thought about what he said.

My mum's .. dead?

My thumb ran over the end call button and the tears flooded my eyes. I refuse to blink down the tears! I thought to myself.

Quickly getting my eye sight blurred up, I blinked a couple of times and the tears rolled down my eyes and stained my shirt.

Slowly rising from the couch, I headed to the kitchen and opened the fridge only to grab the half filled bottle of whiskey and a whiskey glass.

Pouring the bronze coloured beverage, I pulled the glass up to my lips and opened my mouth to take a sip of the drink I have missed oh so much.
