chapter 37

Harry POV

"I got you a present too", Louis informs me as we enter his house. Fizzy, Daisy and Phoebe immediately run towards us.

"Merry Christmas!", they all say at the same time and I smile widely at them. "Merry Christmas", Louis and I reply and we embrace them in turn.

After the hugs and wishes we walk up the stairs to Louis' bedroom. I hop on the bed like we always do, but now Louis gets a box from his desk, which I assume is my present.

He sits down next to me. "I got you this, it's not much but I hope you like it anyway."

I smile at him as he hands me the box. I open it to see four photo frames.

One with a crazy selfie we made a few weeks ago, he's crossing his eyes and smiling and I'm giggling at him.

A picture of us in London is in the next frame, it's a picture in front of the Big Bang tower someone else took for us. I remember talking about how cute the picture was. I smile at the memory.

Another one with a cute selfie where we both smile and look – and are – very happy. I smile wider at this picture, that was a great day.

And in the last frame there is a black and white picture of us hugging tightly. I smile fondly at the picture. It perfectly shows our love for each other.

"Who took this picture?", I ask, still staring at the last picture. "Lottie", he smiles. "Do you like it?", he asks me nervously.

I look at him, lifting his chin with my hand so I can look him in the eyes. "I love it so much, Lou. Thank you so much, it's beautiful."

I pull him in a hug and hold him close as someone interrupts us – again.

"Louis!", his mum yells as she enters the room. "Merry Christmas."

She frowns as soon as she sees me there with him.

"Oh, he's here", she rolls her eyes and wants to walk out of the room when Louis stops her.

"Hey! Don't you dare talk about him like that. Harry is my boyfriend mum, we have been together for almost a year. Why can't you accept it? I'm happy okay? I'm really happy mum. Your judgement isn't gonna change anything about that."

"I love him ma'am, I really do", I add and he smiles softly at me before looking back at his mum. She shakes her head.

"Whatever", she sends us a disgusted glare before walking away and slamming the door closed.

Louis sighs sadly and I pull him in yet another tight embrace.

"It's okay Lou. I love you no matter what", I rub his back to comfort him and he holds onto me as he sheds a few silent tears before getting himself back together and pulling away.

"Watch a movie and cuddle?" He immediately smiles at my proposal, he nods and jumps in my arms again, hugging me.

I grab the remote and put on some random Christmas movie that is playing on his small television and he holds me close, his hair tickling my face.

When the movie is almost finished I notice that Lou fell asleep. I smile at the sight of my sleeping boyfriend cuddling me.

Ten minutes later the door slowly opens, revealing Lottie. I tell her to be quiet by putting a finger on front of my mouth and then pointing at Louis.

She nods and smiles before sitting down on the bed, next to me.

"I wanted to wish him a Merry Christmas. I didn't know you were here. Merry Christmas Harry", I smile and hug her as far as I can with Louis laying half on me.

"Merry Christmas, Lottie. Thank you for supporting me and Lou, it means a lot to the both of us", I murmur as quietly at possible.

She smiles, "Of course I support you, you two are so cute together."

"Thank you", I press a kiss on sleeping Louis' head. "You really love him huh?", I look up at her and instantly nod. "I love him so much."

"Love you too", I hear coming from my arms. I look down and giggle at Louis' sleepy face.

"You were awake all this time weren't you?", I ruffle his hair and he chuckles, "Maybe."

"You little hedgehog", I tickle him. "Haz", he giggles. "I'm not a hedgehog."

"I'm sorry", he giggles when I continue tickling him. After a while I stop tickling him and he wipes his hair out of his face and cuddles me again, "Don't you dare falling asleep again, Mr. Tomlinson. I'd have to wake you up and you don't want to be tickled again do you?"

"You two are so cute", Lottie coos and gets up from the bed. "Dinner will be ready in an hour. Will you be staying Harry?"

"Um, no. I'll be having dinner with my family for Christmas", she nods and walks out of the bedroom.

I hold Louis close for a little while longer, making sure he doesn't fall asleep.

"I'll see you the day after tomorrow, right?", he asks right before I leave his house.

"Yes. I'll be visiting my grandparents tomorrow. I'll be back very late so I'll see you again the day after that okay? I'll text you tomorrow", I explain and pull him in a hug.

After the hug I give him a kiss. Our lips touch and the fireworks in my stomach go off once again. I softly pull his hair and I can feel him smile in the kiss.

The kiss is soft and innocent but very loving. I pour all my love and affection for him in it and I make sure he feels it. After he pulls away I hug him once again before walking towards my door.

"Bye Lou, see you later. Love you", I open the door with my key and turn around to see Louis smiling at me. "I'll see you the day after tomorrow. Love you."
