crypticfondness
Louis never planned on being a dad at sixteen, but when tragedy leaves Phoenix without anyone else, he chooses the little boy without hesitation - just as his own father once chose him.
Between sixth form, part-time work, and learning how to parent a toddler, he's barely keeping his head above water. He wants to be the kind of dad his father has been to him. He wants a successful future, and maybe even love for himself.
Then, when whispers of danger begin to circle, Louis convinces himself he can shoulder it alone-just like everything else he's been carrying. If he doesn't want the weight to crush him, he'll have to do the one thing he's never been good at-let someone else carry some of it.
