Midnight Memories(Louis Tomlinson)

We had just finished moving into our new home. I was bringing in the last of the boxes while Melody unpacked. Cam was at my mum's for the night so we could finish unpacking without a two year old running around. I brought the last box up to our room and set it down. Boy was I surprised to see that Melody had already unpacked all of our pictures and was making our bed.

“Well that was fast.” I laughed, going over to her and kissing her softly. “I'm going to go shower, are there towels?”

She nodded and pointed to the box of towels nearest the bathroom door. “I'll order us a pizza.” God, I loved this woman. She knew exactly the way to my heart.

When I finished my shower I walked downstairs just in time for Melody to get the door for the pizza. She tipped the guy and closed the door.

“Oh good, you're finished.” She smiled, heading for the kitchen and getting us some plates.

I opened the pizza box, only to discover that she had them make it in the shape of a heart, writing our initials in peperoni. “Babe!” I laughed and pulled her into me, kissing her temple.

She giggled, “I love you Louis Tomlinson.”

That memory kept circling in my brain as I drove home from the bar. I did it again, I fucked everything up. Melody was never going to speak to me again. That was the plan though, wasn't it? Make her hate you. Make her not want you. It's what's best for her. But what about what's best for you, Louis? Don't you want your family? Don't you deserve your family? What are doing? So many questions were racing through my mind, everything was starting to get blurry. What was I going to do? Another tear streamed down my face. This wasn't right. I needed to fix this.

Cam climbed into my bed and snuggled against me. “Don't cry mumma, it's okay.” He touched his hand to my face, wiping a tear.

Ever since the fight between Louis and I nothing has been the same. I said I wouldn't let him get to me anymore, but who am I kidding? I loved him, I needed him. He could break my heart a million times but I would still love him with all of my heart.

I sniffled and kissed Cam's head. “Don't worry baby, I'm okay.” I rubbed his arm as he snuggled into me. I hadn't been the best mom the last few days, too busy wallowing in my own self pity. “You hungry? We could go make Pancakes.”

I saw a smile creep across Cam's face as he crawled off my bed and ran towards the door. “Pancakes!!!”

I laughed and followed him down to the kitchen, getting all of the ingredients out and putting them into the bowl. “You want to help me mix it?” I asked.

Cam nodded and I got him a chair to stand on. I handed him the mixer, helping him hold it up and we started mixing the batter. Things got a little messy to say the least when Cam lifted the mixer out of the bowl while it was still on.

“Oops..” He frowned looking down at the counter.

I laughed and wiped some of the batter on his face. “You're gonna get it now.” I joked as he jumped off the chair and ran around the kitchen. I chased him for awhile, then slipped in some batter and fell.

“Mumma!” Cam cried and ran over to me.

“It's okay buddy, I'm alright.” I laughed pulling him into my lap as the front door opened.

“Melody?” They called. “Mel, where are you? It's important!”

I moved Cam and stood up, “I'm in the kitchen Niall. What's up?” What was so important that Niall came crashing into my house at, I glanced at the clock, 9 am? Why was he even awake?

Niall stopped when he saw Camden running towards him covered in pancake batter. “Uncle Niall!” he cheered hugging his legs.

Niall smiled and picked him up. “Hey buddy! You having fun with your mum?” Cam nodded and hugged him tighter.

“What's up Niall?” I questioned, wiping some of the pancake batter off of my face and arms.

“Oh uhm..” Niall set Cam down. “Can you go play in your room buddy? I gotta talk to your mum about some grown up stuff.”

I raised a brow as Cam ran up to his room. “Seriously Niall, what's so important?”
