Our Song - Matchbox Twenty (song to listen to while reading)
Bella's Point of View:

"Babe, can you please help me out?" I whine from the kitchen. Harry's unpacking all of his stuff into my apartment... Well he's trying to but Mia keeps hiding inside the boxes.

"You don't need my help and I'm busy!" He shouts back, making baby noises at Mia. I watch as he sits on the few steps that lead up the door to the spare bedroom and she stands, tapping her hands on the boxes. I do wish he was here for her first words and her first steps, but I'm just glad he's here now.

"Well are you almost finished unpacking?" I chuckle, using my good hand to toss the salad. I decided I would make some spaghetti since it's Mia and Harry's favorite. I turn the heat up on the stove for the pasta and turn my back towards Harry who's watching Mia intently.

"I'm almost finished," he sighs, "But Bell, can she walk upstairs yet?" He asks and I look closely as she holds his hands and reaches her leg up just high enough to get it on the stairs. My insides heat and panic as I slowly reach for my phone to take a video.

"Oh my gosh, don't fucking move Harry. Don't move." I whisper with a huge smile, slowly stepping towards them and holding my phone out to take the video.

"C'mon Mia, you can do it! Climb up to daddy!" Harry coos and she gives him a toothy grin. Her little bottom sticks up in the air as she climbs up another step, earning a squeal from Harry and I both.

"Good girl! One more!" I squeak and she climbs up not one but two more steps. Before she can do another Harry scoops her up and throws her super high, catching her immediately after.



"Mommy's so proud of you!" I gasp, running over to her and kissing her head softly. She giggles uncontrollably in her daddy's arms and a huge smile is plastered across my face.

"You did it!" Harry shouts, kissing her and tickling her.

"Daddy!" She shouts and my heart fucking melts into a million pieces.

"I love you family." I murmur softly, sitting on the stairs next to Harry and resting my head on his shoulder. He pulls me into his chest and kisses my cheek shortly.

"I love my girls." He laughs sweetly. Just as I stand up to check the stove, the doorbell rings and I get a giddy feeling.

"Who's here?" He asks in confusion. Did I forget to mention I invited a few friends over for our first family dinner?

"It's a family dinner, so..." I giggle, swinging open the front door. "I invited the family over!" I smile and Harry's face is clearly full of surprise... and I hope it's the good kind.

"We're here!" Zayn smiles, bopping inside the room with Perrie's hand in his. Next enters Chloe and Niall, Liam and Olivia whom I assume are seeing each other now and lastly, Drew.

"Just in time! Everybody sit, I cooked everything!" I smile, ushering for them to all sit around the table. Harry, Mia and I are officially a family and what better way to celebrate Harry moving in with us than inviting the most important people in our lives over to celebrate?

"In that case, I'll be ordering pizza." Drew snickers, sitting down across from me. I look over at Harry again and this time, he has a huge smile on his face. I can tell he feels happy and loved, and that's all I could ever want.

Everything right now is better than ok... It's my temporary perfect and I have Harry to thank for that.

Louis' Point of View:

"Hey mate, miss me?" I chuckle into the phone. Getting everything prepared for mine and Bella's little trip is almost complete aside from the last step.

"Tomlinson? Holy fuck." My dear old friend gasps in disbelief

"I'm coming back to Little Stream in a few days with Bella... Remember Bella?" I ask, smirking into the phone. I hear him laugh lightly and release a breath, he's probably smoking a cigarette.

"How could I forget?" He chuckles back. "What can I do for you?" He asks, knowing me far too well.

"I could use a little... insurance that someone will be there and help me make sure she doesn't escape." I explain, packing my t-shirts into my bag.

"I've got your back. And do not forget, I'm under a different name now." He anxiously reminds me and I roll my eyes.

"Yes 'Rob' I know the details." I groan at his stupidity. Like does he think I forgot he's supposed to be dead?

"Alright," he sighs, "I can't wait to see her again, and you. It's been a while." He chuckles lightly into the phone. I was never really good friends with Josh, I mean I was his friend but he was never really mine.

"Yeah." I reply dully. "By the way, have you seen Bella's--"

"Oh yeah. I see them." He laughs and I smile crawls onto my face.

"Good, this is going to be a lot easier than I thought. She's going to either love me or hate me... Banking on love." I laugh and hear Chris coming through the door. "Shit I gotta go, talk to you when I get there." I smile at my phone as I hung up. I knew Josh would come in handy one day.

"What's going on?" Chris asks, walking closer towards me.

"I'll be leaving town in a few days. With Bella. Everything is planned and it's perfectly perfect!" I smile, feeling my eye twitch.

I know I'm crazy, there's no denying that. My love for Bella alone is overpowering and I've never felt something like this before... It's almost too much.

But too much is never enough for me. Baby steps Louis, baby steps. You'll have her sooner than later.

Notes

hahaha so um who remembers Josh from Ballerina Bruises? Louis' partner in crime? from the drug thing? yeah, he's not dead.

if you haven't read ballerina bruises, this story is going to get a little bit confusing but I'll try to add flashbacks... but seriously like you should read that now before you keep reading. hint hint.

SORRY i haven't updated this in a while, I'm a little bit ehh with this story. I feel like I've been writing about Bella and Harry for so long that no one is even interested anymore.

Please comment & let me know who's with me because if I'm not getting a reaction out of you guys I might put this story on hold for a bit.
