When You're Gone [Sequel to SOOS] [Laylor]

Chapter 22: Moving...Again

"And then you'll say, I want you for worse or for better. I want you forever and ever. Broke your heart, I'll put it back together. I would wait forever..."

1 year later

"Louis! Wake up!" I yell at him for the third time, this time smacking his blanket-covered butt. "I don't want to. 5 more minutes," he groans, rolling over onto his back.

"I am your wife, and we have to go meet the realtor at a house in 20 minutes! C'mon," I say and he sighs, rolling out of the bed. "Fine, give me five minutes and I'll come downstairs to eat the beautiful breakfast my beautiful wife made me," he says, kissing my cheek and going into the bathroom.

I roll my eyes and go downstairs to make him breakfast, as I have already eaten.

This past year has been...eventful, to say the least. Louis got back from his tour after 6 months, and now One Direction is still together, but they aren't working on anything new for awhile.

They aren't really planning on ever breaking up, and their label doesn't really want to get rid of them, because they are making millions of bucks every day. Nobody in their right mind would give that up.

As for me, I am currently writing new songs for my eighth album. It is a bit of pop and a bit of country, so far. After my fifth album, 1989, the pop songs were fun, but I did miss my country, so I have just been adding a few country songs to my albums again.

Louis and I got married 2 months after he returned from tour and we went to our island for our honeymoon. We met up with Alex and Steve again and they were overjoyed to see that I hadn't sprained my ankle this time. Louis had put candles down in a pathway to our little beach house and it was beautiful.

We have been looking into buying a house now, instead of living in Louis' apartment, which is where we are heading right now, but Louis is being lazy and wouldn't get out of bed.

I set out the plate of scrambled eggs and a cup of tea for him, right as he walks in, his hair still wet from his shower.

"Thanks, love," he says, giving me a kiss as he eats the eggs. He takes the tea in the paper cup and we go out to the car. I volunteer to drive, so he can drink his tea and he agrees.

We start on our way to the house we are seeing with our realtor. I see the For Sale sign in front of the house that I have the address for. I smile and turn to Louis, who smiles back at me.

It's beautiful.

We get out of the car, and Louis leaves his empty tea cup in the cup holder of the car. He takes my hand and we walk to our realtor, Jena, who is standing on the steps in front of the door.

"Nice to see you two again," she gives us a smile and we greet her. She leads us inside and shows us around.

The hallway right inside of the door is completely open, and the ceiling is high up. There are two couches to the right, which I assume is the living room, and there is a flat screen TV mounted against the wall.

There is a window seat with pillows on it and I gasp at how perfect it looks compared to the other 4 houses we looked at before this. Louis squeezes my hand and we follow Jena into the kitchen.

Which is really, really big.

There is a bar table and the middle of the kitchen is completely spacious. The refrigerator is against the wall and the oven is under the stove. There is a giant kitchen sink with a dishwasher right next to it.

I giggle and Jena laughs at my excitement. We go into the dining room which is open next to the kitchen. There is a big table and a big window, making the kitchen and dining room very light.

We go upstairs and there are 5 bedrooms, all with their own bathrooms. We go into the first one and it is just a kids room. We go into the next one, which is the master bedroom. I gasp at the size and immediately smile. There is a ceiling-to-floor window, that faces out into the backyard.

The bed is a huge king size and the closet is as big as probably 1/4 of the room. We go into the attached bathroom and there is a giant bathtub, along with a glass-door shower. There are two sinks and a giant mirror. I turn to Louis and his eyes are wide.

'I think this one is the one' I mouth to him and he nods with a smile. 'Me two' he mouths back.

We finish the upstairs and go outside to the backyard. There is a giant pool, with a giant spa right next to it. There is a sauna next to the pool and there is a grass yard over away from the pool. There is a water pond over on the opposite side of the grass, around the corner of the house.

Louis goes over to the grass and pretends to kick his pretend soccer ball. "This is absolutely perfect for footie," he says and I smile at him.

I walk over to him and wrap my arms around him. He wraps his arms around my waist and rests our foreheads together.

"This one is the one," we both say at the same time and we start laughing.

"So what do you guys think about the house?" Jena asks and Louis and I break apart, but keeping our hands intertwined.

"This one is finally the one. This one is our house," I say and she nods. "Okay, we just have to sign the papers and pay the money and everything will be set," she says and Louis squeezes my hand.

This is it.

It's our house.

"I think that's the last of it!" I hear Niall yell, followed by the thump of a box. I come out of the kitchen and into the box covered living room.

I see Louis outside, talking to the movers and I walk over to Niall, giving him a hug. "Thanks for helping, Nialler," I say and he gives me a hug back. "It's no problem, TayTay," he says, using his old nickname he used to call me.

"Hey! I helped too," Harry complains and I pull away from Niall and run over to Harry, immediately wrapping my arms tight around him.

"Thank you so, so, so, so much, Harbear! You are just the greatest!" I say in a fake high-pitched voice, squeezing his cheeks. "Ew, okay, don't do that," Harry says, slapping my hands away. I laugh and give him a real hug.

"Aw, no hugs for your hubby?" I hear Louis' voice from behind me and I turn around with a smirk.

"Nope! You have unpacking to do!" I say and before I can realize what's happening, Louis is throwing me over his shoulder and running around the downstairs of our house.

I scream and Harry and Niall chant Louis' on. I just laugh and soon Louis puts me down, planting a kiss onto my lips.

"Time to start unpacking."
