DON'T HURT ME DADDY (Harry Styles)

29

It was now December. Christmas Eve to be precise.

Louis' 13th birthday.

Harry had come on in leaps and bounds in the last few months.

He was much better at reading, although his writing was in need of more work.

He was also more confident, and not so shy.

*****

"Lou! Lou! Wake up!" Harry was jumping up and down on Louis' bed, it was 6am.

"Harry! It's too early, go back to bed!" Louis slurred, half asleep.

Harry carried on jumping, he was too excited, being Louis' birthday, what's he going to be like tomorrow?

"No Lou, up!" He giggled.

Louis sat up and pulled Harry down on to the bed.

"No Harry, it's too early, come and sleep next to me for a bit!"  He managed to get the hyper boy under his duvet and they cuddled up.

"Happy birthday Lou!" Harry whispered as he snuggled closer.

"Thanks." Louis closed his eyes with a smile on his lips.

*****

It was two hours later when the boys got up.

"Come on then, let's go downstairs." Louis said as he grabbed Harry's hand and they walked quickly down to the living room.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOUIS!" everyone shouted.

Louis smiled and ran to get hugs from them all.

"Can't believe you're a teenager now!" Liam stated. Lucy nodded.

"Getting old eh Louis?" Lucy joked as she kissed the top of his head.

They all sat in the living room as Louis started opening his presents.

He had money from his parents and grandparents, a cd from Zayn, an Xbox game from Niall and a special family mug that Harry had painted.

Their immediate family were coming over for a few hours today, which they always looked forward to.

As tomorrow would be a busy day, with Lucy cooking the special dinner, today they would order in a takeaway.

It was cold outside, the sky looked full of snow, it was forecast, so it was likely to happen. The boys were hoping it would.

Harry had never seen snow before, the boys had told him all about it, and he really wanted it to happen.

*****

Their family were all here, playing games and chatting.

Louis had gone into the kitchen to get a drink, when he looked out the window and yelled.

"IT'S SNOWING....LOOK.... IT'S SNOWING!"

Louis opened the back door and went outside.

There was a rush of footsteps and everyone was either in the garden, or standing at the door.

"Harry, look... it's snowing!" Niall giggled.

Harry looked up to the darkening sky, seeing tiny cold white flakes falling down. He smiled.

"Pretty!" He shivered.

"Here...put a coat on love." Lucy said, as she put one of Niall's coats around him.

The boys stood in the garden for a while, hoping it would snow hard enough so they could build a snowman and throw snowballs.

"Come in now boys...time for the cake!" Liam called. They all ran in doors, with red cheeks.
