Louis Tomlinson was branded with a Blue tattoo and his day has finally come. The day of his 18th birthday where he will be randomly assigned a Dom. This dom could range from younger to older, poorer to richer, and male to female. You never knew what you were going to get. Some Doms were more harsher and stricter than others.

Not to mention he’s the only racer they have, after Oliver dropped out late last year.

It hasn’t occurred to him that Oliver would have to be replaced by February. That is, until he finds himself at a party celebrating Harry Styles leaving Ferrari for Cowell. Harry hotshot Styles, who broke a record last year and is probably looking to make a big splash. Harry Styles, who is talented and somewhat intimidating. Harry Styles, who left Ferrari for reasons unknown and seems kind of lonely and harmless in person. Lonely, harmless, hot as fuck. Whatever.

The first thing Louis does is take him under his wing. From there it’s nine months of slow-burning romance, the past catching up to them, turning into the human puppy pile that is OT5 and a lot of feelings until, of course, reaching the finish line.

Club Mad - (217k) Harry is kidnapped and soon finds out that he is the latest addition to a group of people forced to ‘entertain’ members of a secret organization simply called 'the club’.

larry becoming grandparents

“Dad?” The young boy asked hesitantly, his hand rubbing nervously at the back of his neck from where he stood at the living room door, leaning against the door frame.

“You know, after sixteen years, I still don’t know which one of us you’re referring to when you say that.” Louis spoke first, sprawled out across Harry’s lap on the sofa. Harry folded up his newspaper, softly hitting Louis with it before placing it onto the coffee table in front of him.

“Ignore him. What’s up buttercup?”

Looking at the floor to avoid the two burning gazes, the boy stepped forward, taking a seat on the recliner opposite his two fathers.

“Well um,” he played nervously with his fingers. “You see the term father could apply to both of you…but it could also apply to me too, as of today.”

Louis looked up, lifting himself off of his resting position on top of Harry. “What? What does that mean?”

“Oh god,” Harry murmured in shock. He had understood. He lifted his hand to his mouth. “Son. Are you saying what I think you’re saying?

The two boy’s soon nodded in anticipation, his face somewhat heated. “What? Can someone please tell me what’s going on-”

“Louis. We’re going to be grandfathers.”

Louis’ jaw dropped as he stood up, placing both hands on his head, shaking it in disbelief. Harry merely sat stationary on the sofa, chewing his nails, suppressing a smile by biting his rose pink lip. Lou paced back and forth in front of the curtain as their child sat with his head in his hands.

“How has this happened? You’re so young, you’re only a child yourself! How has this happened?”

“I’m really sorry, Dad,”

“No, no this is our fault! Don’t you see Harry, we are to blame! It’s us!”

“Lou,” Harry stood to reassure his slightly overemotional husband, unable to hide his smirk any longer at the situation.

“Don’t Lou me!” He smacked his hand away, staring at him. “Why aren’t you taking this more seriously? We’ve failed him, Harry! How, in sixteen years, did we not even manage to teach our own son how to avoid a pregnancy?”

“Well, in all fairness…we’ve never really had that problem.”

A giggle came from the other side of the room, and Harry watched his smile be reflected.

“What, you think this is a joke? You’re about to be a Dad! Oh god the responsibilities! Why couldn’t you just pick a boyfriend instead, huh? You had to be complicated!”

“Rule number one of life son,” Harry patted his son on the back softly, giving his shoulder a squeeze. “Always wrap it up.”

Louis shook his head as both the boys smiled. “You two are unbelievable, you know that?”

Harry strolled back over to where his highly stressed boyfriend stood, taking his hands from the side of his head and kissing his knuckles softly. “Lou. It’s alright.”

With an exasperated but somewhat significantly calmer tone, Louis responded, his accent incredibly thick; “How on earth is it alright?”

Harry turned to his son. “Well. Do you like her?”

He nodded.

“Does she make you happy?”

He nodded once again.

“Are you both pretty happy accepting what you’ve done and dealing with the consequences?”

Another nod. Harry turned to his husband once again.

“I don’t see an issue, babe. Love is love regardless of age and we should celebrate it. We were young when we met, remember.” He pulled on Louis’ arm as he melted into him, his face softening. “We’ll take care of it, yeah? It’s all alright.”

Louis sighed as he rested his head on his hubby’s shoulder. “You better use that same charm on the poor girl’s parents.”

“I will do, babe.”

“You’re still not off the hook you, you know that!” Louis pointed at their child, his face still buried into Harry’s neck. Harry looked up at him.

“You are,” he mouthed. “It’s fine.”
