We fell in love in October.

Chapter 12

Pov. Louis

Today is Harry's birthday.
Myra is still happy with me.
But it still feels empty.
So I plan to ask Harry if he wants to live with me.

Which of course is a big change, but at the same time it is not.
Harry sleeps at my place more often than he does at his home.
I discussed it with Anne and she also gave me permission.

Time skip,
We are now in Harry's house.
Or yes Anne's, but that doesn't matter.
We sit on the sofa and the presents are handed out.
When it's my turn to give a present I pick up the wrapped box next to me and hand it to him.

He opens it with a frown on his face.
It is only a keychain with the two of us on it, but he does not know that he should also read the note underneath.
After all, it says on it that he can live with me.

"Lou?"
"Yes, Haz."
"What does this mean? Not that I'm not grateful for it, but I'm just wondering."
"Read the note, dear. Then you'll understand." I whisper.

He starts reading the note and almost immediately tears come to his eyes.
I grab a handkerchief and wipe away his tears.
He looks up at me a smiles softly.
Then he continues reading and leans against me.

"Lou." He whispers
"Yes?" I whisper back, not knowing that most have now left the room.
"Is this for real? Not a joke or something?"
"No." 

He jumps up and gives me a big kiss.
I smile into our kiss.
I can just feel his joy.

He thanks me again and tells the rest of the guests to come back.

Throughout the evening, we secretly look at each other and have small smiles on our mouths.

We decided that Harry will still spend the evening with Anne, but then go to see me tomorrow.

I'm glad he liked the present.
