After explaining to Louis that he has a wardrobe full of clothes that he can wear and that Louis is not to feel guilty about them buying him clothes, the boys convinced Louis to change into nicer clothes, Harry not even hesitating to throw Louis old ones out. Louis settled on a pair of grey sweats and a navy blue sweater, with socks on his feet, they are still falling off him which concerns Harry and Edward though, Louis is now sitting on the couch comfortably watching TV.

Harry is making dinner while Edward is in the study making some calls for work, the doorbell rings and Louis jumps off the couch scared and looks at Harry as he dries his hands on the tea towel.

"Relax bug, it's just Scotty, Edwards work partner, he's just coming to say hi" Harry smiles.

Louis doesn't move and watches as Harry answers the door and Scott greets Harry with a smile and a hug, they share a laugh and exchange a few words.

"Headspace?" Scott asks,

"Not now" Harry replies. Scott nods as Harry then leads him inside.

Scott spots Louis and Louis notices Scott has something behind his back, he smiles widely at Louis and comes over to crouch down in front of Louis.

"Hiya there Lou" Scott says cheerily.

"Hi" Louis whispers out.

"I brought something for you!" Scott says as he brings a soccer ball out from behind his back

Louis gasps.

"For me?" Louis asks.

Scott nods and Louis looks to Harry who nods permission, smiling for Louis to take the ball. Louis takes the ball in awe, he absolutely loves soccer.

"What do you say to uncle Scotty?" Harry asks gently.

"Tha...thanks uncle Scotty" Louis says still in awe, he leans down to hug him much to Harry and Scott's surprise.

"You're welcome kiddo" Scott says, returning the hug easily.

Louis stands back and sees Scott and Harry looking at him fondly, Edward then enters the room and Scott gets up to greet him.

"Edward, look what uncle Scott brought me" Louis says happily.

Edward smiles widely, Louis is so shy and doesn't talk a lot so the fact he's making conversation now, especially with Scott around is huge. Even though Louis isn't in headspace, Littles are a lot younger naturally, he's so adorable and small and Harry and Edward cannot hide their fond.

"Wow, Lou, that's amazing, I love soccer, how about we go play outside together a bit later?" Edward says.

"Really? Yeah" Louis smiles.

"Of course, let me say hi to Scott and finish my paperwork and then we can go out together" Edward says.

"Can.....can I go and play outside while I wait for you? Just to kick the ball a little bit?" Louis asks shyly and really unsure

He really wants to get outside to play for a while, Louis loves soccer and it was one thing he was good at and just came naturally, although he never played professionally he did play when he was at school, he doesn't want to get into trouble for asking though,

Edward and Harry look towards each other, the yard is huge with a swimming pool and playground attached and there is more than enough room for Louis to kick the ball around on the grass, the outdoor area leads straight off the kitchen and lounge so the boys can see outside at all times.

"Okay, but stay right away from the pool okay and where we can see you" Edward says.

Louis smiles brightly and goes to leave for outside.
