You & I
Chapter 20
*THREE MONTHS LATER*
“Hurry up Louis, we’re going to be late,” Harry yelled from the bottom of the stairs.
Harry looked back down at his wrist watch, waiting impatiently for Louis to come down the stairs. As Harry continued to wait for the kid upstairs, Becka barged through the doors with only half of her clothes on.
“Jesus Christ Beck, put some clothes on,” Harry covered his eyes with his hands.
Becka huffed with a sigh, “Well excuse me that I’m only dressed from the waist down. At least I have something covering my breast aka a bra thank you.”
Harry let out a chuckle.
“Where’s Louis?” Becka asked as she put on a nice black blousy shirt, matching her skirt.
“Taking five years in the bathroom trying to fix his hair,” Harry waved his hands towards the stairs.
“Damn and I thought I took forever getting ready,” Becka commented.
“You have no idea,” Harry sighed.
As Harry took a seat on the couch, Becka came and sat by him with a grin on her face. Harry looked over at Becka with wide eyes, “What?”
“So how long are you?”
Harry was surprised by the open question. Instead of leading into the question, Becka was known for blurting out the question without thinking.
“Um three months,” Harry stretched out the answer.
“And when’s the due date?” Becka sat up closer to Harry.
“In a couple more months, four more the last time I knew.”
“Do you know the gender or genders?”
“No.”
“Can I feel your tummy?”
Harry moved away from Becka, “No! I just put this nice shirt and bow tie on. I’m not taking off the shirt so you can feel my stomach. Hell, I don’t even let Louis touch my stomach.”
“What about me?”
Harry and Becka turned around to see Louis in a Navy blue blazer top with a white button up shirt underneath, black skinnies showing off the ass and white converse.
“They said to dress formal, not whatever you are not my kid,” Harry mumbled in a low voice.
“This is too formal and plus it shows off my lovely ass,” Louis remarked.
Becka giggled, “All the girls and boys are gonne be looking Lou.”
Louis laughed, “Yeah but none can have me because I’m already taken.”
“By who?” Harry asked.
“Some boy who’s carry my little blimp,” Louis walked over to Harry and placed his hands on Harry’s stomach.
Harry swatted Louis’s hands away, “Stop touching the stomach, it’s weird.”
“Shit!” Becka cursed. “Guys were going to be late for our own party.”
“The queen is never late,” Louis proudly stated back until Harry dragged them both out to the car.
*At the school*
“And now may I present to you, the class of 2014!”
The gym roared with cheers. The whole class threw their caps in the air as a symbol of freedom. They were free indeed.
The three freidns hugged their classmates, wishing them well and luck for the future. And while Louis was talking to a old pal, Harry walked over to Becka and told her to get ready. Becka nodded her head as she went back to the boy’s home.
Harry got in the passenger side of the car as Louis began to take off from the schools parking lot but Louis being Louis had one last thing to say to the staff of Easton High, “See ya around motherfuckers!” That was Harry’s boyfriend for everyone.
Once the boys got home, Harry grabbed a grey necktie from the glove department and handed it to Louis.
“Cover your eyes with it and don’t untie it until I say so,” Harry commanded.
Louis shook his head, didn’t even bother to argue with the pregnant boy as he tied the tie of his eyes.
Harry, quickly, ran inside to tell Becka that Louis was waiting for her as he took of his suit and tie. Becka walked out the door, grabbed Louis’s arm and lead him to the front door of the house. She let go of his arm and whispered in his ears, “You can go inside.”
Becka opened up the door as Louis untied the grey tie around his eyes and gasp at the sight. Pictures and more picture of Louis when he was a kid growing up with Jay and Lottie, then him as a young teen, then there were picture of Louis and Harry when they first met. Louis saw the many pictures he took of Harry. Some of Harry was making a random face at the camera, cooking, reading a book, or looking out the window. All the pictures lead Louis to the television in the living room with a video of Harry.
Louis sat down on the couch as Becka pressed play on the video.
“Hi Louis! I know you were expecting a gift or perhaps a party for graduation but I hope this will do as both,” Harry smiled on the camera. “I’m not good with the whole sappy thing or anything romantic but I hope this will do for you. You remember when Mr. Elderman made us write that horrible essay after watching We Bought a Zoo? You wanted to know what I wrote about, begged me to tell you but I told you that it was a surprise. Well this is it. I realize that I couldn’t sing when I was a mute but I did write something or you and well since I can talk now, perhaps I can sing you my essay.
I figured it out,
I figured it out from black and white
Seconds and hours,
Maybe they had to take some time
I know how it goes,
I know how it goes from wrong and right
Silence and sound
Did they ever hold each other tight
Like us?
Did they ever fight
Like us?
You and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it 'til the end
Nothing can come between
You and I
Not even the gods above
Can separate the two of us
No, nothing can come between
You and I
Oh, you and I
I figured it out,
Saw the mistakes of up and down
Meet in the middle,
There's always room for common ground
I see what it's like,
I see what it's like for day and night
Never together
'Cause they see things in a different light
Like us
But they never tried
Like us
You and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it 'til the end
Nothing can come between
You and I
Not even the gods above
Can separate the two of us
No, nothing can come between
You and I
Oh, you and I
I love you Louis and I have one more surprise for you if only you turn around right now.
The video was cut off to a black screen. Louis wiped at his cheek as he turned around to see Harry on his knees with a rose in his hand.
“I want us to last forever Louis as a family so will you, Louis William Tomlinson, be my future Tomlinson-Style?”
“Hurry up Louis, we’re going to be late,” Harry yelled from the bottom of the stairs.
Harry looked back down at his wrist watch, waiting impatiently for Louis to come down the stairs. As Harry continued to wait for the kid upstairs, Becka barged through the doors with only half of her clothes on.
