Chapter 1

"Lou, Mum told me to wake you up for school," Lottie says as she walks into Louis' room.

"M'kay," Louis mumbles into his pillow. He pulls the covers off himself and carelessly gets out of bed, walking up to Lottie and giving her a quick hug. "Have you had breakfast yet?" He asks her, scratching his mussed up hair lazily.

"No, I can't reach the cereal," she chuckles. They make their way across Louis' room, his arm around Lottie's shoulders.

Louis lets out a short laugh. "If you can't, I can't," he grins. "Where're Mum and Fizzy? They could've helped you," he asks as they start down the stairs.

"Mum's with Doris and Ernest and Fizzy's probably still in bed," she tells him, Louis letting out a short laugh, and muttering 'of course' under his breath silently.

The pair walk in the kitchen to find their mum, Jay, with Doris and Ernie, like Lottie said, and Fizzy sitting down eating the cereal (not like Lottie said). As Lottie walks over to join Fizzy for breakfast, Louis goes over to Jay.

"Morning Mum," he smiles brightly, eyes crinkled and teeth showing. Jay's head shoots up at the sound of her son's voice, a smile breaking out across her face.

"Oh, hey, Love," she smiles back. She turns back to the twins. "Sleep well?" She asks him.

"Yeah, fine," Louis shrugs. He takes a seat on the edge of the stool right next to Ernie. "Need me to do anything for you?" he asks, making a face at Ernest. Jay seems frustrated, having to deal with multiple kids at a time.

She stops what she's doing and sighs, her arms flopping as she runs a hand through her hair. "Uh- yeah, actually. Could you wake the twins up please?" She asks, then frowns. "That's Daisy and Phoebe... not, Doris and-," she sighs. "You know what, I'll do it." Louis laughs in amusement. "Too many kids." Jay mumbles.

Louis lets out another laugh. "Mum, it's fine, I'll do it." He says, chuckling still. She looks over at him, exhausted, and nods.

"Okay, thanks," she kisses Louis' cheek and goes back to the youngest set of twins.

Louis silently walks into the twins' room and up to their beds; Phoebe's first, as she's closest.
He silently crouches down beside her bed, watching her sleeping form with a fond smile. "Phoebe, babe, wake up," he encourages gently. "You've got school, don't want to be late now, do we?" Phoebe groans and rolls over so she has her back facing Louis. He chuckles quietly and carefully stands up, deciding to come back to her. Louis walks over to Daisy and does the same, trying to gently wake her up. It doesn't work, so he walks over to the curtains.

"Alright, I tried being nice," Louis states, not so gently anymore. He pulls the curtains open, letting all the light in and hears them both groan loudly. He grins to himself and runs up to their beds, picking them both up; one in each arm. "Come on, you two! You have school!" They both carry on groaning, but Louis hears them giggling, enjoying the moment with their older brother.

"Louis!" Daisy laughs. "Get off!" They both struggle in his arms, laughing as his fingers dig into their sides, tickling them unknowingly.

"Never!" Louis shouts in triumph, a large grin on his face after hearing the loud giggles from two of his favourite people. He carries them both down the stairs and plonks them down onto the stools next to the breakfast bar. "I got them, Mum," Louis says, still laughing as he sits down next to them.

Jay turns around and walks over to the giggling trio. She sighs. "Thanks, Love." She gives Louis a well-needed hug.

Louis hugs back just as tight. "No problem," he says as they let go of each other and he carries on eating his cereal. Once he's done, he helps by washing up all of their bowls and going upstairs to get ready for school. He goes into the bathroom to have a quick shower, not wetting his hair, and then styles his hair cutely and gets changed into a plain black t-shirt with a pair of black skinny jeans and Vans.

Once he's ready, he grabs his iPhone and walks downstairs. "Mum, I'm going now!" he calls out.

"Okay, Love! I can't come say bye, but I love you! Bye!" She shouts as Louis laughs.

"Love you too!" he shouts back. Louis makes sure to shout goodbye to all his sisters, and brother, before walking out the door.
