The dinner was filled with smiles and meaningless conversations...Louis never got tired of saying that Monica's food was the best in the world, and Monica smiled proudly.
Monica had seen the transformation of Louis and Zayn from two teenage stars to great men. She loved them as if they were her own children.
Monica and Celine had joined the four at the dinner.
Emma looked at everyone seated around the table, it was not just her father who was happy. At that moment, she realized how much her father was loved, and she had the feeling that as long as Zayn was happy, everyone at that table would be as well.
"You should have seen Harry when he saw the article about our movie, Mon." Louis laughed as he ate his delicious mash.
"I can imagine. I'm so happy for you, my son." Monica smiled, extending her hand to Harry, who took her hand and kissed her next.
"Harry will be famous." Emma said, banging her cutlery on the plate excitedly. Everyone smiled.

The dinner was great. Celine went back home while Monica said goodbye to everyone and headed back to her place, the house at the backyard of the mansion.
Emma slept in her godfather's arms as they watched "Frozen, a freezing adventure", the favorite movie of Louis, Zayn and Harry’s favorite child.
Harry took Emma in her bedroom, leaving Louis and Zayn alone in the living room.
"We can stop watching this movie already." Louis said, getting up and looking for another movie on the DVD shelf. "Why did you turn so still all of a sudden?"
"I'm thinking about my family." Louis stopped looking for a movie and looked at Zayn. "I'm so happy, I had a great time today. But I wish they were here too, I want all of us to be together." Zayn got up from the couch to prepare a drink for him and Louis. "I miss my mother. I miss my brother."
"I miss Liam too." Louis said thoughtfully.
"Sorry, I shouldn’t be talking about him with you. I know it is still a delicate subject for you. Lou, I'm sorry." Zayn walked up to Louis and hugged him.
"It’s not about me, Zayn. He's your family." Louis told him, pulling out of his embrace. "Alison's death made you leave a lot behind. Now that you’ve found yourself again, maybe it's time to get back everything that was yours...Your family, your work. You deserve all of it."
"I don’t know if I'm ready for my old life..."
"Call them..."
"I don’t know, maybe."
"Are we going to leave the movie night for another day? Maybe you and Harry want to watch some adult movie, and that's going to be a total annoyance for me." Louis said playfully.
