They were all sat downstairs watching 'Tangled'. Liam, Niall and Zayn had joined them earlier in the day.

Harry was cuddled into Louis's side, and Ernest was asleep on Louis's lap.

Harry shut his eyes, Louis kissing his forehead lightly. "You sleepy love?"

"Mhm." Harry nodded. "Might fall asleep."

"Go up to bed. I'll be up in a bit. Just need to say goodnight and help mum put the kids to bed."

"Okay." Harry untangled himself from Louis's arm, standing up quietly.

He said goodnight before making his way upstairs. Niall and Liam had both gone up to bed early, tired after exploring the island that day.

Harry knocked on Niall's door, getting a "come in." He walked in, opening his arms.

"Just wanted to say goodnight." Harry sat on Niall's bed, hugging him. He'd been making sure to say goodnight to them every time he saw them. After what happened with him, he didn't want to be too careful. "I don't know if I've told you recently but I really appreciate how much you've helped me."

"Awe, I love you Harold." Niall kissed his cheek. "Goodnight."

"See you tomorrow. Oh, would you like to come to the beach with us all? I'm going to invite Liam in a minute."

"Of course, yeah. I wanna make sand castles."

Harry giggled, giving Niall one last hug before heading to Liam's room. "Alright Harry?" Liam paused whatever he was watching on the TV.

"Hello." Harry smiled, "just saying goodnight."

"Night Haz. Say night to Louis for me."

"I will." Harry smiled softly just at his name.

"God, you're so in love." Liam said in a teasing tone, nudging Harry gently.

"Yeah." Harry murmured, "I really really love him."

Liam pulled him in for a quick hug, "I'm so glad you're happy. Now go cuddle Louis."

"Okay." Harry nodded a little too quickly, "you know, he's got loads of tattoos as well."

"I do. You've told me many a time. I know you find them very hot as well. I don't need to know about your kinks."

"That's- that's not what I was gonna say." Harry blushed.

"You've hinted enough." Liam raised an eyebrow.

"Have not." Harry crossed his arms with a pout.

"You like his hands, you like his tattoos, you like his neck and his hair."

"I like everything about him. That doesn't reveal my kinks."

"It tells me enough Harry."

"This is just embarrassing."

"Go cuddle Louis." Liam laughed. "Talk to him about your kinks."

"Fuck off, we've not gotten that far yet."

"Well, may as well talk about it." He shrugged.

"I'm going to leave. Night Liam."

"Night Harry." He chuckled.

Harry waved, leaving the room and heading to Louis's. And his he supposed. Harry changed into a pair of Louis's trousers. He had plenty of his own down here by now, but he preferred to wear Louis's clothes when he could.

He climbed into the bed, wrapping a blanket around his head.

Louis soon entered the room, grinning at Harry in his cocooned form. He ran at the bed, jumping on and smothering Harry in hugs and kisses.

Harry squealed, pulling the blanket to cloak his face but Louis just tugged it back. "You're beautiful."

"You're beautifuller." Harry replied, pulling Louis down.

"You're more beautifuller."

"No you are."

"We're both beautiful."

"Yes."

"Why've you got a blanket wrapped around your head?"

"Makes me feel safe." Harry shrugged, "all cosy and stuff."

"God H, you're adorable. But do you want cuddles instead?"

"Yes, cuddles please. I love cuddles." Harry grinned up at him

"I know you do." Louis smiled. "Let me get changed then we'll cuddle."

"Okay." He pulled the blanket tighter around his head, watching Louis patiently. "No, don't put that on." Harry groaned as Louis picked up a jumper.

"Why not?"

"Cause it's my jumper and I don't want you to smell like me when I'm cuddling you."

"Now you know how I feel all the time." Louis stuck his tongue out at Harry. "You're always wearing my clothes."

"Just come here." Harry pouted, opening his arms.

"God you're the cuddliest person I know." Louis laughed, "how did you cope without all the cuddles beforehand?"

"Pillows." Harry admitted. "And the cats."

"I'm glad the cats helped out." Louis jumped back onto the bed. "Come here then."

Harry immediately wrapped his arms around Louis and rested his head on Louis's chest.

Louis tightened his grip, holding him close. "I love you H."

"I love you darling." Harry murmured back contently. "Really, really love you."

"My mum loves you too. She thinks you're wonderful."

"I think she's wonderful too. She's really very lovely. And your sisters and Ernest."

"They also love you. Think you're amazing actually."

"Really?"

"They won't stop talking about you." Louis confirmed with a smile.

"Fuck," Harry started to tear up.

"Curly, are you okay?"

"I've never been this happy. You know how I used to feel. I used to feel so alone and fucking pathetic but now there are so many people around me who actually care."

"God, you deserve the world. You really do. I love you with all my fucking heart."

Harry shut his eyes, shuffling even closer to Louis if possible. "I love you." He whimper.

"Oh sweetheart, don't cry."

"Can't help it, I'm just overwhelmed."

Louis tugged Harry up so their heads were closed, pressing a kiss to Harry's cheek.

"Can we get a dog?" Harry asked with a sniffle. "One of the black curly ones."

"A dog? Now?"

"Mhm." Harry nodded slightly, "course we don't have to, but like you said you'd want one, and I want one, and yeah..."

"Well," Louis started, "I think we can get a dog. But only if we call it Clifford."

"Really? We can get a dog?"

"On the terms we call it Clifford." Louis nodded.

Harry grinned, though his eyes were still watery. "When? Can we look now?"

"Not now love." Louis said fondly, "I'm pretty sure you're about to fall asleep on me."

"Soon?"

"Soon."

"Very soon?"

"Go to sleep." He chuckled.

"Nighty night Lou."

"Nighty night Haz."

"I love you." Harry whispered.

"I love you too, now zip it and sleep."
