"Lou, could you fetch me the bib! Hunter over here is spitting out all of her food." Skylar called from the kitchen, trying to control the small eight month old. Louis was holding the other twin, Jack, "Love, I'll be down with one after I change Jack's diaper!" Their lives have been hectic since their last tour. Perrie and Zayn got married, and are yet to have children. Liam has a new girlfriend, and is yet to settle down. B is still living, and showing some signs of improvement with Harry by his side. They're engaged- trying to fit in a wedding between B's schedule. Louis rushed downstairs, carefully holding Jack as he did so. Skylar took the bib from him, pecking his cheek before quickly snapping it on the little girl. Hunter giggled, sounding just like her mum. Louis lay Jack down on his little mat so that he could crawl, everywhere. That boy just wants to explore. "Hunter, c'mon babe! That's it! Aren't those fruits delicious? They taste like shit, don't they?"

"Skylar. Just give up, she hates the fruits. While Jack will eat anything." Skylar sighed placing Hunter on the floor so that she could join her twin brother on his adventure. Louis wrapped his arm around Skylar, pulling her closely. Sky sighed, breathing in Louis' cologne. "I found something in Jack's diaper."

"Is it that coin he swallowed the other day?" Skylar asked excitedly. Louis burst into laughter shaking his head. Instead, he pulled out a ring box. It was now or never, five years of dating, an on and off relationship when they were young and stupid, it all came down to this. For some reason, Louis was feeling nervous. If she's been in the bathroom brushing her teeth while he was taking a shit, he could do this. Skylar's mouth dropped, now she knew that he'd propose one day, she just hadn't really anticipated how she'd react. Knowing her, she'd probably say no on accident. Louis got down on his left knee, also the one he had hurt playing with Jack the other day, but he didn't care one bit. "I would write you a long paragraph, but I feel like we're not that boring."

"I love you, and the twins, and Charlie, I hope you love me, so will you, Skylar Ranae Cowell, marry me?" Tears of laughter were streaming down each of their faces. This was supposed to be a heart warming moment between the two, but they couldn't contain themselves. they were never ones for serious situations anyway. "Of course I will, dork. I love you too." Louis' lips met hers, sweetly kissing her. She quickly moved her lips with his, grabbing him so that he was flush against her. You could say it's been a couple months since things got intimate, almost a year even. Louis broke away from their kiss, trailing soft butterfly kisses all the way to her shoulder blade, where he began sucking and nibbling softly. Skylar leaned against the counter trying to hold in the loud sounds that wanted to come out of her mouth. So she pulled Louis' lips back onto hers, their moans covered by their lips being in action. "Do you want to go out for dinner? Lottie could stay the night." He trailed off hinting Skylar. She immediately nodded her head, pulling away from the heated make out session. "Well it's six, so I've got to get ready."

"Are you seriously-" Skylar nodded her head, smirking at Louis' defeated face. Instead of giving in to him, she ran upstairs towards their room, locking herself in the bathroom to start. Louis pulled out his phone, smiling wildly. "Lot- hey could you spend the night? Yea, I did it. You are- shut up, can you? Thanks, I owe you one." He disconnected the phone trying to figure out a way to make their night special. Louis watched Hunter crawl up to him, and ask to be held. As he picked her up, he involuntarily smiled. Now I've got an idea, Louis thought while smirking to himself.

Skylar looked in the mirror, finally satisfied with her choice of dress. Only she hadn't worn this one ever since she had the twins. Louis knocked on the door, "Are you ready, love? Lottie just got here." Sky sighed, "Could you come in for a bit actually, I need your opinion." Louis fidgeted outside of the door, taking a deep breath before opening the door. His jaw just about dropped at the sight of his fiancé. Skylar furrowed her eyebrows as she looked away from the mirror, turning to Lou. "Do I look fat?"
