Chapter 24.

Louis smiled fondly at the boy who stood a few steps away, teasing his sisters with a large water gun. Liam's eyes shone with happiness and glee as he sprinted across the already wet grass, the water gun held high up in the air. It's the happiest he's ever seen Liam since he split up with Niall. Daisy and Phoebe squealed with delight as they ran after Liam, rugby tackling him to the ground before he escaped. Liam's laugh echoed in the air as they tickled him, causing him to surrender.


Louis get go of the spatula he was holding over the BBQ to flip the sausages before he grabbed the spare water gun and ran after them, haling Daisy and Phoebe off of Liam. "Louis, you poo! We thought you were on our side!" Phoebe pouted, slapping his arm playfully. "Who says I was on anyone's side?" Louis cocked an eyebrow, smirking mischievously at his twin sisters before they screamed and ran off. Chuckling, Liam began to sit up but then grunted softly when Louis pushed him gently back down again on the damp grass, straddling his hips.


Liam frowned in confusion, staring up at Louis in wonder. "Who says I was anyone's side?" Louis repeated with a smirk and Liam smirked too, just as Louis dipped his head to kiss Liam on the mouth. Liam's tongue carefully entered Louis' mouth without being asked permission, smiling against his lips. Louis' hand casually rang through Liam's wet hair at the top, sighing happily. "Ugh, gross!" a familiar voice cried, followed by a few sprays of water on Louis' face once he had snapped his head back up. Louis gasped in shock, peeling himself away from Liam. "Get back here, you little bugger!" Louis cried playfully, charging after the twins while Liam feebly stood up and laughed.


When lunch was ready, the boys sat out on the deck chairs with a plate of food in their hands. Ray-banes shielded their eyes from the sun as they watched Louis' sisters play around the garden and the pool. They had ate earlier so they could play longer. Jay and Mark had joined them, sitting on other side of Louis. Louis was lying topless next to him, in only a pair of short beige shorts and his skin was clearly sun-kissed. Louis looked so relaxed, soaking up the sun with his head back on the deck chair.

"You need to get ready!" Jay cried hurriedly, ushering Louis up the stairs. "Why?" Louis frowned, puzzled. "Because Liam's taking you out on a date." Jay replied, rolling her eyes as if it was the most obvious thing ever. "He is?" Louis gasped, his heart suddenly hammering hard against his chest. He somehow started to feel nervous. Like he wasn't ready for this. His palms suddenly began to feel sweaty. Was this normal?


Gulping dryly, he headed upstairs to change into something decent. It was the day after the BBQ they had and Liam was surprisingly taking him out on a date. And there was no reason why Louis should be nervous since he had taken him out on plenty of dates before. "You're looking sharp, bro." Lottie complimented as his brother stepped on the bottom landing, fiddling with the hem of his shirt. It was nothing really fancy. Just a light blue button-down shirt and black jeans with white vans. Nothing major. Liam was dressed similar but instead of wearing white vans, he wore black instead of light blue, he wore a navy blue shirt. Simple, but gorgeous. Louis thought he was stunning.


"Let me fix your color." Lottie sighed, smiling a little as she reached up to her brothers shoulders and flattened down the color at the back. "Thanks." Louis breathed, feeling nervous. "You'll be fine. Just don't talk about your exes on the date, girls hate that." Lottie reassured him, patting his shoulder. Louis chuckled, despite himself. "In case it has escaped your notice, Liam is a guy." Louis pointed out and Lottie rolled her eyes. "I know. Just some words of advice from your lil' sister." she assured him and pecked him on the cheek before Louis walked out to greet Liam waiting on him.


They arrived at a restaurant called 'The Rosso' half an hour later. Liam gave the waiter his last time and the waiter took them too a two-seated table right at the window, where they could watch the stars above them. "Thanks for yesterday." Liam was first to say, smiling at Louis. Louis smiled back. "You're welcome." Louis answered simply, and their eyes went back to the menu.


"Louis, I wanna tell you something." Liam finally decided a couple of minutes after their meal had arrived. Louis cleared his throat, digging his fork into his meal and waited patiently. Liam fiddled with the place mat and smiled nervously. "I...I kinda love you..., Louis." he admitted quietly and Louis couldn't help but grin. "Really?" Louis giggled and Liam nodded, grinning back. "That is so funny because I love you too," Louis smirked and Liam blushed, looking down.


Louis felt relieved. Relieved because they both felt the same way toward each other, and it was both at the exact same time. It was perfect. Liam was over the moon too. Because he was pretty sure no one had ever felt this way about him. Not even Niall. He proved that by sleeping with Zayn behind his back. He cringed at the thought but didn't let that get to him. He was far too happy to think about an ex right now.


Liam reached over and carefully fitted Louis' hand in his, the pad of his thumb leaving feathery touches in the centre of his palm which sent pleasurable shivers down his spine. They arrived home after dessert and after Liam had paid the bill (much to Louis' constant protests) but the house was empty. There was a note on the kitchen counter when Louis walked over, from his mother.


Decided to have a family outing with the girls, didn't want to disturb you and Liam on the last day, Jay xox


Louis couldn't help smiling, despite the fact his face was bright red. He quickly scrunched up the paper and threw it in the bin, turning to Liam who was standing behind him. "I'll just...go for a shower. We need to get up early tomorrow." Liam shrugged and Louis suddenly felt disappointed. "Okay," he shrugged, trying hard not to care that he did in fact, want to, erm...have sex with Liam. They had just both admitted their feelings, right? So what was stopping them?


But when Liam headed for the shower, he came out five minutes later dressed in only a white thick towel wrapped around his slim waist. The water droplets dripped off his sun-kissed skin, his muscles rippling due to the coldness. "Uhh...shower's not working," Liam stated uncertainly. Louis chuckled nervously and headed upstairs to the bathroom to solve Liam's problem. He pushed the two knobs on the bath tub and the shower back, so the shower immediately ran down Louis' back and Louis still had his top on. He swore loudly, earning a chuckle from Liam has Louis furiously whipped shirt off and tossed it violently on the floor. Liam was still chuckling, smirking away at his boyfriend. "You think that's funny?" Louis teased flirtatiously and Liam immediately shut up, coughing into silence.


Louis' eyes grew dark with lust then, as he walked over to Liam and when he reached him, he cheekily looped his finger in the hem of the towel, his finger gently touching Liam's skin as he did so and he unwrapped the towel around his waist, the towel dropping at Liam's feet. Liam shivered slightly, gazing up at Louis. "I can show you funny..." Louis whispered seductively, his warm breath tickling Liam's mouth. Feeling slightly hard already, Liam reached out and greeted Louis with wet, sloppy kiss.


Liam's fingers traced lightly down Louis' bear shoulders, causing a moan to erupt in the back of his throat. Louis was surprised when Liam's hands reached the belt of his jeans and nervously unhooked the belt, followed by taking down the zip and letting Louis step out of his jeans and boxers. The tension had risen then, the room suddenly heated and ten times warmer than it was before the shower had been turned on. Liam's breathing was hard and shallow, matching Louis'.


Liam left light kisses down Louis' jaw and on to his shoulder, all while Louis tangled his hand in Liam's and pulled him toward the running shower, carefully stepping in and getting Liam to join him. Liam was gently pushed against the tiled wall of the shower, Louis' hand gently touching Liam's waist, their bodies pressed together. Standing under the shower head, Louis planted feverish kisses on Liam's mouth that made Liam's breathing turn out hard and laboured, overwhelmed by the sudden hotness of Louis. Liam desperately pulled Louis impossibly close to him, their crotches brushing against each other. Louis gasped at the sudden intimate gesture, feeling as much of Liam as he possibly could through their kisses. "I love you," Liam breathed for the second time that night and Louis couldn't help the blush creeping on his cheeks. "I love you, too." he replied, pecking Liam's lips once more.


Liam's hips bucked into Louis, causing Louis to moan a little as he grabbed the nape of Liam's neck, pulling him even closer. "We should...probably go to bed." Liam whispered reluctantly, their heads pressed together and their noses brushing against each other. "Mhmm," Louis mumbled, closing his eyes shut and letting the water running through his wet and damp hair. "Louis." Liam whimpered, unable to let the older the boy go. "See you in a bit." Louis sighed, stepping out of the bathtub and wrapping a towel around his waist.


Half an hour later, Liam crept into bed beside Louis. Louis had willingly crept into the guest room again, unable to sleep in his own childhood bed. Liam wrapped a strong arm around the sleeping boy next to him, pulling him close and finally fell asleep shortly afterward.

Here's the next chapter to MQ, finally! I'm sad to say that this is the second last chapter of Mr Quirky, chapter 25 being the last. I've basically got everything I want to happen in this story...so far. I doubt I'd be doing a sequel, I see no reason to really. But I've pretty much lost inspiration in this story and I had other stories to focus on. But let me know what you think of this chapter? Hope you like it! :) xx
