Chapter 29 ~ Houses

"This one!" Harry said. "This one is perfect, three bedroom, close to work, the primary school is even around the corner" 

"Really? Three bedrooms? Do we need that many?" I asked as I looked through the pictures of the house.

"Well, if we decide to have another kid yes, and if not, we have a bedroom for guests, like my mum?" Harry suggested with his bottom lip between his teeth. "Lou, it's a good house, and it's even good value. I'll get a part time job to help out with morgage" Harry seemed really keen on this house, and I will admit, it's a great house. It's in a good area, and it is close to both the schools, I'd be insane to let this go.

"Are you a hundred percent sure on this house?" I asked. "We can look at others first"

"I don't think we need to, this house is perfect" he smiled widely. "Unless of course you don't want it, we can find another house..." 

"Shh," I laughed at his rambles. "It's a good house, I just want to make sure we're making the right decision with it"

"I think we are, look at it. There's nothing wrong with it, and like I said earlier, close to work, close to the primary school for when our baby's old enough"

"It's like we already have a kid" I noted. "About that..." Harry looked at me curiously. 

"You're not thinking about changing your mind are you?" 

"No, course not, I want a kid. But, I-what do you want to do? Like adopt? Or have a surrogate? Because we need to get papers and everything for this..." 

"Baby" Harry soothed and wrapped his arms around me, from where he sat behind me. "Calm down, I want to have a baby, and I don't care how it happens" he kissed my cheek. 

"I want your baby Harry, and I don't mean what you're going to say. I mean, I want the baby to come from you, with a surrogate" I turned slightly so he could look at me. 

"Louis... You-what about you? I thought you want a baby of your own" I smiled.

"I want to try to have a kid with your genes first, whether we succed or fail, I want to try with mine later. After that dream I had of us with kids, it really got me thinking... Even though I didn't see our other daughter, I want to see a girl, even a boy, who looks like you" Harry slammed his lips to mine and kissed me roughly. 

"I fucking love you Louis Tomlinson" I smiled and kissed him again. "So, I guess we um look for a surrogate?" he said quietly and kept pecking my lips. 

"I guess," I shrugged, now that it was happening, it felt weird and awkward to ask a woman to carry our child. 

"How about we sort out our house first? We'll go down to the real estate agent tomorrow and get them to let us look at the house" I smiled, this is why I love him. 

"Sounds like a plan"

"Guys, you never said anything about an engagment party! You have to have one" Niall said through a mouthfull of chicken. "It's like, not real if you don't" Niall spoke. 

"We didn't really think of that to be honest" Harry said. "We might just wait until we move into our new house. If we get it" he continued. 

"Wait" Niall's eyes widened. "You've found a house already?" he almost sounded disappointed.

"Uh, yeah" I said awkwardly and rubbed the back of my neck. "It's close to a school for the baby and my work. It's a good price and a good area" I told them. 

"But, we're going to look at it to make sure it's really what it's worth" Harry added. "Don't worry boys, we'll still see each other a lot" it's like Harry's been their friend for years.
