Louis wakes up the next morning from someone trying to climb on him. He removes his arm around Harry's torso and lays on his back. William is smiling at him and comes crawling over and lays down on his chest. He wraps his arms around him and kisses his feather-light hair and William just lays there for a while before he gets restless. He turns around and Louis gets his wet diaper in the face and starts to laugh.

When he tries to move him William manages to kick Harry in the head and wakes him up. He sits up and rubs his head but then he sees the situation Louis is in and he lifts William over to his lap.
"Thanks." Louis says with a laugh.

"I'm gonna change his diaper." Harry smiles.

"Is it okay if I take a shower?" Louis asks.

"Of course. You don't have to ask for permission Lou. Just take what you need in my closet as well." Harry answers.

"I feel bad for borrowing your clothes all the time Haz." Louis sighs.

"I don't mind sharing. It's okay." Harry smiles and takes William to the nursery to change his diaper.

Louis gets the crutches and jumps over to Harry's walk-in closet. It only reminds him of why he's here in the first place and that makes him feel even worse. He picks up some clothes and jumps to the bathroom. He gets in the shower and keeps his cast outside. He somehow manages to wash his hair and get cleaned up and after he dries himself he gets dressed in Harry's clothes. They're too big for him so he rolls up the sweats.

He heads to his own room to brush his teeth and then he goes looking for Harry. He can hear them downstairs so with a little bit of stubbornness he makes it down the stairs. He finds them at the breakfast table.
"Can I join you?" He asks shyly.

"Of course! We were just about to get you some food upstairs but please sit down." Harry smiles. 

Louis takes a seat opposite Harry and watches him feed William. Niall brings him a plate with eggs and bacon before he sits down as well. Louis immediately digs in.

Liam joins them and Zayn enters the room as well. He sits next to Harry and starts to whispering something to him. Louis watches them whisper to each other back and forth with a wrinkled eyebrow. They're all over each other's personal space. Drunken make out once right? It seems to be something more going on there and he can feel the jealousy boil in his veins. He hurries to finish his breakfast and gets up.
"I'll be upstairs." He snorts.

Harry looks up with a surprised look on his face like he just noticed his presence.
"Oh, okay. Yeah, I have to work today." He sighs and looks unhappy.

Louis notices the looks, Niall, Zayn, and Liam share but he's too pissed off at the moment to care. Instead, he storms off, at least he tries to put a leg in a cast, and crutches kind of get in the way of that and that makes him even angrier for some reason.

He makes it upstairs and lays down on the bed after he has closed the door behind him. Why the hell is Harry sharing a bed with him at night if he has something going on with Zayn?

He lays there moping for hours. At lunchtime, no other than Zayn knocks on his door and pokes his head inside. Louis wants to tell him to fuck off but he doesn't. His eyes grow wide in surprise when Zayn puts a ton of shopping bags on his bed.
"Here, Harry thought you might want some clothes of your own so he sent me shopping." Zayn smiles.

Louis is baffled.
"What?"

Then it hits him.
"Oh, so that was what you two were whispering about this morning? I thought..." He stops talking before he makes a complete fool of himself but Zayn understands anyhow.

"Stop being a moron Louis. I told you that H and I are just friends." He chuckles.

Louis blushes.
"You looked really intimate."

"Totally platonic mate. Harry was just excited about this." Zayn explains and points at the bags.

Louis takes a look inside. There's a whole wardrobe there.
"This must have cost a fortune. He shouldn't have." He sighs.

"You need clothes." Zayn says softly and Louis doesn't answer, feeling ashamed over his situation, but Zayn doesn't stop there.
"Can I ask you why you became homeless?"

"My dad kicked me out of the house when I was seventeen because he found out that I'm gay." Louis answers self-consciously.

Zayn's mouth falls open and he takes two steps forward and pulls Louis in for a bone-crushing hug.
"That's horrible. I'm so sorry Louis."

"It's fine." Louis mumbles and hugs him back awkwardly, patting his back.

Zayn lets go.
"It's time for lunch. Do you want me to bring you something?"

"I rather eat downstairs if that's okay?" Louis says.

"Of course. Come on." Zayn smiles.

They make it to the kitchen. Liam, Niall, and William are already at the table and Zayn and Louis take a seat and they start to eat.
"Aren't we gonna wait for Harry?" Louis questions.

"He's working in his office and no one wants to disturb him. He's always in a bad mood then." Niall answers.

"Working with what?" Louis asks.

"His father's company." Zayn informs him.

Louis wrinkles his eyebrows.
"Why? Harry doesn't want to work in construction."

"See! Even the hobo gets it!" Niall shouts.

"Niall!" Liam gasps but Louis starts to laugh.

"Hobo? Thanks, Niall. Back to the topic, have you tried to talk to him about it?" Louis asks and looks around.

"Ehm, it's a sensitive subject." Liam sighs.

"Cowards. I'll talk to him." Louis says.

He brings William with him after lunch and knocks on Harry's office.
"What?" Harry shouts, sounding irritated.

Louis opens the door.
"This little guy misses you."

"Are you talking about yourself?" Harry smirks but he doesn't look up.

"Rude!" Louis chuckles.

William runs up to Harry and that gets his attention. He picks him up and puts him in his lap before he returns to his papers.

Louis lingers by the doorway.
"What are you doing?"

"Working." Harry mumbles dismissivly.

"Why are you running your dads company Haz? You wanted to study music in collage." Louis cuts right to it.

Harry looks at him like he's stupid.
"Things changed. It's my dads company."

"Exactly. That was his lifedream." Louis says softly and walks up to the desk and takes a seat.

"I need to honor him." Harry sighs.

"And you can do that in so many ways. I'm sure your parents wanted you to live the life you want, with your own dreams. You don't have to live their lives." Louis answers.

Harry stares at him blankly.
"You don't get it. Will you excuse me now. I'm busy."

Louis gets upset.
"I fucking get it Haz. I want to honor my mum as well but you don't see me working as a midwife, do you?"

"You need an education for that." Harry snorts.

Louis flinches. He stares at Harry angrily.
"Nice one Haz. Really fucking nice. Fuck you."

He gets up and storms off.
