When Harry woke up the next morning, he realised that he felt happier than he had in months, his heart felt like it was a mixture of hot chocolate and marshmallows and honey, all gooey, warm and comfortable.

It took him a minute to realise why he felt like that, with his sleep dazed mind but when he saw Louis' arms around him, it came back in an instant.

Louis was his. He was Louis'. They were finally together.

Harry felt like the luckiest guy on the planet, however cliché that might sound and all he wanted to do was scream it out loud for the world to hear.

He looked at Louis' sleeping form for sometime, taking it all in, recalling how often he used to see him like this and wish he could kiss him or run his hands through his soft hair and tell him how much he meant to him.

But now he could.

So that's exactly what he did.

He ran to the bathroom first and brushed his teeth and then got onto the bed again, climbing over Louis and placing his arms on either side of his head to support himself.

He pressed a soft kiss to Louis' forehead, then to his cheeks, then onto his closed eyelids, then to the corner of his mouth, which lead to Louis opening his eyes.

Louis smiled at him, his sunshine smile that he only reserved for the most special of occasions, the smile that Harry always managed to bring out no matter what and he closed the gap between their mouths, pulling Harry into a kiss.

After a while of cuddling and lots of kissing which lead to both of them feeling like they were on top of the world, Harry disentangled himself from Louis' arms.

"I'm gonna go make you coffee, little Lou, also you were really sneaky, waking up before me and brushing your teeth and all."

"I had a strong suspicion you'd kiss me as soon as you woke up and I didn't want to ruin that with morning breath so I set an alarm to brush my teeth." Louis smiled.

"Oh Lou." And then somehow they were on the bed again, kissing, coffee and shower long forgotten.

"Niall, do you want to come over for breakfast?"

"If by breakfast you mean those disgusting pancakes of yours, then no, I do not want to come over Louis."

"Oh shut up, they weren't that bad, and no, I'm not cooking, Harry is."

Even over the phone, Louis could practically see Niall lifting his eyebrow and the cheeky smile that would have made an appearance on his face.

"So you and Harry?"

"Yes me and Harry.. just come over Niall." Louis said smiling and blushing.

***

Louis walked into the kitchen and wrapped his arms around Harry's waist from behind.

Harry turned around, caught of guard and blushed when he saw Louis there.

"I could get used to this Lou."

"Well that's good because I could get used to this too."

Harry was so soft and so precious, like a gentle puppy that had to be protected at all costs.

There was a loud knock on the door and Niall walked in, whistling cheerfully.

Louis slipped his hand into Harry's and looking at the way Harry's whole face lit up, he promised himself that he'd hold his hand at every single opportunity he got. It was worth it. It was all worth it when it came to Harry.

"So you saps finally figured things out." Niall said clapping them both on the back.

"Yes we did." Harry said softly, looking at Louis.

"And we have you to also thank for that Niall, I mean, this could have gone in a completely different direction had it not been for you."

"Oh come on, you two were meant for each other, you'd have found each other anyway and landed up together, even if it hadn't been for me. Funny as it might seem, looking at the two of you like this, together, it feels right you know?"

"I know" they replied together and hugged Niall from either side, ignoring his half hearted, indignant protests.

***

That evening Louis picked Harry up from work and they went out for dinner.

It wasn't a fancy place, it was more of an outdoor garden restaurant, but it was one of Harry's favourite places in the city and what made Harry happy made Louis happy as well.

They sat at a table that was placed right under a tall tree with swooping branches and tiny fairy lights strung through its leaves.

"This place is magical, don't you Think Lou?"

"I think, you're more magical Haz."

"That was the sappiest thing I've ever heard" said Harry laughing and trying to desperately control the growing blush from spreading across his face.

"Shush give me a break okay, just go with it." Louis replied tapping Harry's nose.

Harry took a deep breath before speaking again,"Lou? Can I ask you something?"

"Anything Harbear."

"We're dating right?"

"Well of course we are, what were you thinking we were doing then?" Louis replied amused.

"I don't know, I just wanted to make sure." Harry said half embarrassed.

"Oh Hazza. Harry, I love you and I want you to be my boyfriend, how do you feel about that?" Louis softly exhaled.

"I feel like my life couldn't get any better." Harry replied leaning across the table to kiss Louis, and the twinkling of all the fairly lights together was dimmed in comparison to the way Louis' eyes shone.

They walked back home, hand in hand.

"You know Lou, when we were just friends, there were so many times that I wanted to do this? Hold your hand, kiss you, do all the things with you that we can do now."

"I did too Harry, it just took me some time to figure it out but deep down, there was always something about you that brought out this soft, sappy side of me."

"I love all your sides Lou, sassy, soft, sappy, sexy.."

And they burst out laughing, their hands still interlocked and their hands fit into each other's like they were made just for each other.
