Summary
When Louis Tomlinson needed to find a new preschool for his daughter, he wasn't expecting the one across the street to be everything he and Goldie ever needed.
Or: the one where Louis is closed off, Harry is the weirdest person ever, and Gemma may as well be a psychic.
Somehow, calico-cat-style, they forge a beautiful family from pieces that don't quite fit.

Summary
Gemma looks up at Louis. “You know what I realized the other day, Petunia?”
“Hm?” Louis hums, not looking away from Poppy’s face.
“In just a couple of weeks, it will have been a year since the day we met.”
Louis freezes. “That…” His eyes wander across the room, taking everything in. “That can’t be… That can’t be right…”
“Oh, but it is, my sweet Petunia,” Gemma can’t help but smirk. “Life moved awfully fast last year.”
He turns to her, shock still all over his face. “A ye-ar?” He asks, turning the word into two syllables.
She held a finger up. “One year.”
“One year?!” He whispers.
Gemma’s eyebrow jumps. “We could say it a few more times if you’d like?” She snickers, tilting her head and looking at him like he’s an idiot.

Summary
What comes after golden afternoons and oddly crunchy apple pies? Well, for these weirdos, a three-year whirlwind of life, love, poorly behaved cats, big changes, bad choices, birthdays, mistakes, more life, more love, passports, treehouses, and flowers for days. Will they ever start believing that they're already home?
With help from family, friends, magical creeks, acorns, mermaids, Audis, a handful of second chances, and Gemma (always Gemma)...
They'll be alright.
Or: the one where we learn that falling in love is a delightful romp, and staying in love is sometimes, as well. Except for the times when it isn't.

Summary
There was nothing — really, nothing ever — that Louis looked forward to more than when everyone was here, together, at home. It was the only time things felt like they used to; like the brunches they used to have every Sunday, like the Friday Night dinners at Anne’s. Everyone loud, crowded into too-small rooms, talking over one another, the screeching of little girls as they played, fought, and play-fought.
Or, the very last chapter of the All in the Golden Afternoon Universe.
(Ooop, that made me cry a little bit)
