On their last day of their amazing week long honeymoon, Louis had slept like a baby right next to his husband until he absolutely had to get up. When he did, Harry had already packed their bags and was walking around the room to make sure they didn't forget anything. Louis had to be dragged to the airport when he didn't feel like moving around much less walk.

When they finally made it back to London it was already seven in the afternoon having to take a cab straight to Des and Anne's house. When they got there the first thing they saw was their car parked in front of the house after Harry had asked his father to keep it there. Louis helped Harry with their bags then ran inside and straight to the kitchen where he could hear his in-laws and baby.

Ian was walking around in the kitchen with no shoes on and only wearing a shirt and diaper while Anne and Des were cooking. He would sometimes pull on their shirts, get a peeled grape, then continue walking around as he chewed looking up when he heard someone running in. As soon as Ian saw his parents standing by the door he smiled and ran to them without stumbling like he used to. Louis caught him in his arms and held him close kissing all over his face ignoring how wet the front of his shirt was with all his drool.

"Dada miss you so much, pumpkin!" Louis kissed his cheeks holding him as close to him as he could while Ian was still chewing the fruit.

"Dada." Ian smiled at him as if he was greeting him then looked at Harry reaching for him.

"Hi peanut! Were you good for nana and papa?" Harry cooed at him kissing his sticky cheek.

"Pa!" Ian pointed at Des with his tiny finger then at Anne, "Mummy."

"He calls you mummy?" Harry asked his mum with a smile on his face seeing her nodding.

"Spent too much time with Gemma's kids, calls Gemma and Jay mummy too so is nothing special." Anne happily told him grabbing another grape to give to her grandson, "Are you staying for dinner? We're making barbecue sandwiches, Ian already ate."

"Of course!" Louis smiled heading to the sink to wash his hands to help, "I am starving."

"Great! We made plenty, enough to feed an army." Des placed the sandwiches in the toaster oven so they could heat then went back to make more now with Louis' help.

"I went to the doctor with Gemma and she's expecting a single baby again!" Anne gushed as she peeled more grapes for Ian who was watching her do it still in Harry's arms, "The kids have been acting up lately with all this baby talk but they'll get used to it, hopefully Ian will be an understanding baby. Right, munchkin? Yes you will!" Anne cooed at Ian missing how red Louis' cheeks had gotten.

"Hopefully, if not then too bad for him." Harry said watching Ian stuffing his face with grapes from the tiny bowl Anne gave him having placed it in between his and Harry's chest. He watched in amusement when Ian ate a sour one, his face scrunched up then felt his tiny body shuddering as he spit it back out.

He laughed when he set him down and could clearly see his son had a food baby when his tummy was poking out more than usual. They ate the sandwiches as they talked about the things they had done during their honeymoon leaving out the part of how they had fucked like rabbits enough to knock Louis up for life. When it was time to go, Anne bundled Ian up already tearing up at having to let him go back home while Louis and Harry packed his bags and cleaned up the room he had been staying in.

Anne had gotten a crib just for Ian and when Harry had tried to pay for it, she had refused telling him she was going to use it for the new grandchildren she was going to have whenever they visited. Harry had only smiled at her then hugged her before leaving the bedroom to meet Louis by the door who was already waiting with Ian in his arms.

"Thank you again for watching him." Louis thanked them again as he hugged them goodbye then turned to look at Ian who was staring at his grandparents, "We're going home, baby. Say bye bye to nana and papa." He kissed his cheek and when he turned around to leave, he heard Ian's tiny whimper.

"Pa..." He whimpered already pouting before he burst out crying reaching for Des getting louder when his papa wouldn't hold him.

"You're just going home, buddy. I'll see you later." Des told him then reached for him calming him down as soon as he was in his arms. Ian wrapped his little arms around his neck resting his head on his right shoulder while Des didn't know what to do.

"You could spend the night here, there's plenty of rooms." Anne suggested hoping for a yes.

"Do you want to stay?" Louis asked Harry seeing him already holding Ian's little suitcase, "I don't mind." He shrugged.

"Sure, I'm tired and I'm not sure I want to drive when I'm already falling asleep." Harry agreed setting the bag down, "Let me go get our bag with clean clothes."

Louis nodded as he picked Ian's bag and followed them upstairs going into the room where Ian had been staying setting the bag down in the middle of the bed. It was a queen sized bed with two matching nightstands and lamps on each side, there was a full bathroom included with everything they needed to take a shower and clean towels in the cabinet. That time Ian went to Louis rather willingly knowing he was going to sleep in the same room that was already familiar to him, but that time his parents were there too putting him in a great mood.

"We'll let you get ready for bed." Anne told them as soon as Harry was back with one of their suitcases.

They said their goodnights then took a shower taking turns deciding to bath Ian last letting him play a bit with his toys until the water wasn't so warm anymore. Ian had thrown a fit when Harry had picked him up to give him to Louis who already had the towel ready to wrap him in it.

They ignored it knowing he was going to shut up soon which he did as soon as he was covered in baby lotion and dressed in his warm pajamas. He ended up falling asleep minutes later in Harry's arms as he drank his warm milk and Harry was reading him The Tale of Peter Rabbit.

"Finally!" Harry exclaimed too loud for Louis' liking who turned to look at Ian to make sure he was still asleep.

"Don't yell, you're gonna wake him up and then he's gonna want to sleep with us and the bed's too small." Louis mumbled almost half asleep.

"Aw, who wants a cuddle." Harry cooed at Louis wrapping his arm around his waist to bring him closer to him letting Louis put his leg over his waist, "Does the cuddle monster need a cuddle? Love you, bug."

"I love you too." Louis kissed the front of his neck then rested his head by his shoulder closing his eyes, both he and Harry falling asleep a few minutes later.

It felt like only seconds had passed when Louis woke up again when he heard his son calling for him. He looked around a bit disoriented then checked the clock wondering why the hell Ian was up at four in the morning. His wake up time was at six everyday except on the weekends where he'll wake up at six but go back to sleep and wake up at eight.

"Dada. Dada."

When Louis sat up he saw his son standing up staring at him with his sippy cup in his hand and the other holding onto the rail. As soon as Ian saw he was awake he raised his arm wanting Louis to take his cup and as soon as Louis did, he raised his arm wanting to be picked up.

"What's wrong, pumpkin? Why are you up at this ungodly hour, huh?" Louis cooed at him taking the hint when Ian tapped the cup with his hand, "Oh, you want milk? Yes you do."

Louis put his slippers on then silently made his way to the kitchen being careful on the stairs. Once he was in the kitchen he went straight to the fridge to get the milk then to the cabinet for a cup to warm it up in. He set Ian down on the floor when he started wiggling only to be followed by him to wherever he walked to.

"Dada." Ian whined when Louis was taking too long.

"I'm going as fast as I can, Ian. You have to be a patient boy or you won't get your milk." Louis lightly scolded him, "Can you say milk? Milk, milk, milk."

"Mil'." Ian repeated getting a praise from Louis.

He started walking around the kitchen island while Louis praised him until he tripped and landed on his knees, his little palms slapping against the tile floor so loud it made Louis flinch. He started crying right away not moving from his spot until Louis picked him up and sat him down on top of the island. He rubbed his knees and his little palms before kissing them then wiped away his tears with his thumbs.

"Oh my poor baby, you're okay pumpkin. It wasn't that bad, you're fine." Louis soothed him until he calmed down.

Louis picked him up again going to take the milk out of the microwave then grabbed a clean sippy cup filling it with the milk. Once the lid was secured he gave it to Ian who started drinking right away as Louis sighed ready to go back to bed. He let him down again when Ian wanted to get down then grabbed his hand slowly walking towards the stairs.

"No. Dada no." Ian stopped walking as soon as Louis was about to step on the first step.

"Ian, it's four in the morning. We're supposed to be asleep, dada wants to sleep. Please." Louis begged and when Ian started walking towards the family room, Louis wanted to cry.

"Dada, t'ain." Ian looked up at him expecting him to do something Louis didn't know what since his son was saying a new word and he had no clue what it was.

"I'm sorry, what was that?" Louis asked watching him drink a bit of milk before grabbing the remote from the coffee table.

"T'ain dada. Pa." Ian insisted.

"You want to watch tv with papa?" Louis asked, "Papa is asleep and we should too, tv can wait until later." Louis told him then groaned when Ian sat down on the rug starting to drink his milk again.

He had no choice but to sit on the couch and turn the tv on trying to find something appropriate for Ian to watch and when he didn't find anything, he went to the DVR finding a bunch of recorded episodes of Thomas and Friends, The Amazing World of Gumball and Regular Show. He chose a Thomas and Friends one starting from the beginning getting startled when Ian shouted T'ain at the top of his lungs.

"Train!" Louis snapped his fingers.

"T'ain!" Ian giggled getting up from his spot heading to Louis who picked him up and placed him on his lap with his tiny back against his chest. He grabbed a throw blanket to keep themselves warm at least until Ian fell asleep again after finishing his milk.

Louis ended up falling asleep first waking up when the light got too bright and he could smell the bacon and eggs coming from the kitchen. He sat up with Ian still asleep in his arms seeing the empty sippy cup on the floor and the tv already off figuring out it had turned off by itself. He picked up the cup putting it on top of the coffee table then with great difficulty got up being careful with Ian scratching his cheek with his free hand before using that arm to get a better hold of Ian.

When he got to the bedroom he gently put him in his crib covering him with his baby blanket before heading to the bathroom where Harry was taking a shower. He took his pajamas off and giving no shits got in the shower with Harry now that it was warm and he was starting to get cold.

"Morning baby!" Harry greeted him too happy for Louis' liking, "Where were you? Did you and Ian get up early?" Harry asked moving out of the water spray to let Louis under it.

"No." Louis groaned, "Freaking Ian woke up at four in the morning wanting milk and when I got it for him he decided it would be a great idea to watch tv. I fell asleep while watching creepy Thomas and I don't know at what time he fell asleep, he's still passed out."

"Mum got him into drinking warm milk, she does it with all her grandkids. I was obsessed." Harry chuckled making Louis smile.

"As long as he doesn't drink too much." Louis sighed resting his head against Harry's chest and seconds later smelt his shampoo as Harry washed his hair.

Louis did the same with Harry making sure to put enough conditioner on his hair after he had found him one that actually left his hair shiny and manageable. When they were done, they quickly changed into clean clothes and when Ian woke up Louis changed him into a white shirt and denim overalls with an owl embroidered on the front.

"My god look at this cutie." Anne said as soon as she saw Ian walking through the door with his pacifier in his mouth and stuffed animal in his arms.

"Mummy." Ian raised his arms so Anne could pick him up and when she did, he rested his little head on her right shoulder.

"Are you hungry, munchkin? I already have your breakfast ready!" Anne kissed his cheek placing him on his high chair where Des went to greet him and tickle his sides making him laugh.

"I am starving." Harry said grabbing two plates to serve Louis and himself some food while his husband fed Ian who was being a brat spitting the cooked egg back out.

"Don't be rude, Ian Edward! Nana made it for you." Louis scolded him about to lose his patience.

"Mummy!" Ian corrected him grabbing a piece of banana and popping it in his mouth then grabbed the sippy cup filled with milk.

"Yeah, well mummy made this for you and you're wasting it." Louis told him letting Harry feed it to him.

His jaw dropped when Ian actually ate the piece of egg Harry gave him and smiled at him at the same time he was chewing. Breakfast time passed by fast and as soon as Ian went down for a nap, Harry and Louis finally decided to go home already missing it. When they got there they found it clean thanks to Roxanne who had made time to clean it before they could come back from their honeymoon.

After Harry had tucked Ian in in his crib, he busied himself helping Louis unpack all their bags and soon the pile of laundry was the highest they had ever seen. They started washing them right away wanting to do it now before going back to work or they will never have time. While they washed Louis made his way to what was supposed to be the guest room but was their storage room after they had been too lazy to move everything to the attic and now he was regretting it.

"Harry, babe!" Louis called for Harry making sure he wasn't being too loud hearing his footsteps until he was right next to him.

"You need something?" Harry asked him eyeing all the crap they had in the storage room.

"I need you to help me clean up this room, I want to move all this crap up in the attic." Louis told him expecting him to get to work as he made his way inside the room.

"Why? It's fine where it is." Harry shrugged already feeling too lazy.

"And where's the new baby going to sleep? I need this room cleaned up before I'm too fat to help you and god knows you're not gonna let me do anything once I start showing." Louis narrowed his eyes at him then bent down to grab a box full of crap he didn't know he still had. It was filled with old magazines and he immediately put it on the pile that would be going straight to the trash.

"Louis, it's been like a week and maybe you're not pregnant. We have time to do this." Harry groaned just wanting to sit down on the couch with a beer and watch tv.

"Fine, don't help me then." Louis glared at him going through a second box that contained christmas decorations putting it in the stuff for christmas pile having decided to have a section for each thing, "Go watch tv and grow your beer belly."

"Babe, don't get angry. It's bad for the not there yet baby." Harry wrapped his arms around Louis' waist.

"There's no baby." Louis said through gritted teeth.

"It's a bunch of tiny cells. We fucked plenty of times to have you knocked up for life." Harry pressed his lips on the back of Louis' neck kissing it before letting go then made his way to another box finding it filled with Ian's newborn clothes, "You think we should donate this?" Harry asked.

"Not yet, I want to find out what we're having first and if it's a boy I'm gonna use them again. Go through them and make sure they're not stained, if they are then throw them out because the stains will not go away." Louis instructed him seeing Harry nodding in understanding.

"Aww, this is cute." Harry cooed holding up the grey Monster Inc. overalls with the green striped onesie.

"I am keeping that one along with his coming home clothes. I need to buy him a bigger one." Louis took it from Harry to put it away with Ian's clothes back in their closet.

Ian woke up in the middle of them putting the boxes up in the attic having started with the heaviest ones finally playing some music at full volume. He was allowed to walk around until he managed to get to the Christmas wrapping paper wasting all of it. They had never seen him having that much fun as he was having that moment rolling around on the floor wrapping and unwrapping himself with the paper. They let him play with it since it was keeping him busy while they cleaned up the room until they finished leaving them with a few boxes full of stuff they wanted to get rid of.

"It looks so much better." Harry shouted over the song Your Bones by Of Monsters And Men.

"It finally looks decent." Harry smiled at him.

They felt tiny hands pushing them apart then watched Ian walk into the carpeted room still holding the wrinkled up wrapping paper. He looked up at the dusty ceiling fan then started walking around in circles never moving his gaze away from it until he got dizzy and tripped on his own feet landing on his bum. They expected him to cry but he only got up, grabbed the wrapping paper and left the room.

"Weird." Harry muttered hiding the fact that he used to do the same as a child.

Three months quickly passed by and soon they were getting ready for another Christmas together. Harry had helped Louis decorate the house and the outside of it wanting the house to look good. Louis had then helped a now five month pregnant Gemma decorate her house where she had let him see the baby's nursery. The walls were a light purple and now all she had to do was wait to have her baby they had named Carly Elisa. Louis, well Louis was still waiting not wanting to be disappointed if the tests came back negative so he'll rather wait to get symptoms.

When he got home later that afternoon, Harry was sitting on the couch going through his phone while Ian slept next to him. He was wearing a black snapback backwards with his hair brushed to the back. Louis remembered it as one of the snapbacks he had gotten in the mail, one was black and the other was red. They were his favorites.

"Hey." Louis greeted him taking a seat on the couch after kissing Ian's forehead, the one and a half year old barely stirring.

"Hey babe, how's Gemma and the kids?" Harry asked putting his phone away to give his full attention to Louis.

"They're great! Gemma showed me the nursery, I really liked it." Louis said starting to run his fingers through Ian's very light brown curly hair, "This kid needs a haircut, his hair is almost at his shoulders."

"Nope, no he doesn't. His hair is perfect the way it is." Harry quickly shot that idea down not wanting his son to lose his precious curls.

"He can barely see and at this rate he's gonna end up like Rapunzel." Louis argued, "At least let me cut the front, I feel bad for him with all that hair."

"Then let him be Rapunzel, he'll make a badass Rapunzel." Harry shrugged knowing he was pissing Louis off but there was no way he was going to cut his baby's hair.

"Harry..." Louis said through gritted teeth getting interrupted by the doorbell.

"Pizza's here!" Harry exclaimed getting up to go get it.

Louis continued running his fingers through his son's hair trying to think of ways to convince Harry to cut his hair and when he couldn't come up with anything, he decided to leave it and get up to get iced water to eat. When he got back Harry was already sitting on a couch with a half eaten slice of pizza in his mouth and watching I Am Legend that lucky for him had just started.

"What kind of pizza is it?" Louis wrinkled his nose as soon as the smell hit him.

"Hawaiian. You told me you liked it so I ordered this kind." Harry answered with his mouth full.

"Okay." Louis swallowed then took a seat on the couch moving Ian a little further away from them.

He gave Harry a plate and a napkin then reached for a slice putting it on his plate about to eat it when the smell hit him making him feel nauseous. He didn't know whether to be happy or to panic when he was about to barf and there wasn't a single trashcan near him. He desperately looked around putting his hand over his mouth while Harry furrowed his brow in confusion until he realized what was going on.

Louis eyed his snapback making Harry moved back but it was too late when Louis snatched it away from him and emptied out his stomach right in it. Harry jumped up scooting backwards completely disgusted having dropped his plate on their new coffee table as he watched him puke until he stopped and looked around grabbing a napkin to wipe around his mouth.

"Oh that was gross." Louis took a deep breath leaning backwards feeling a bit queasy, "I think this pregnancy is going to be worse than the last one, I feel awful." Louis groaned still not seeing Harry looking devastated.

"Louis what the hell." Harry said almost in tears, "That was my hat, that was my favorite hat."

"So you rather have me puke on the rug?" Louis narrowed his eyes at him not feeling in the mood to argue with him, "I'll get you a new one for christmas. Can you get rid of this?"

Harry took a deep breath and when the fact that Louis was expecting again settled in, he grabbed the nasty snapback with the tips of his fingers and made his way to the kitchen to throw it in the trash. He took the trash out having doubled bagged it and when he came back Louis was gone and Ian was just waking up. He watched him rub his eyes with his little fists and when he didn't see anybody, he started crying trying to get up.

"I'm right here, peanut." Harry cooed at him picking him up then grabbed the box of pizza to put it in the kitchen away from Louis taking the plates as well inside the box.

"Dahey s'eepy." Ian rubbed his left eye resting his head on Harry's shoulder.

"I know baby boy but hey, you're gonna be a big brother. Isn't that exciting! You're gonna have a little brother or a little sister." Harry chuckled when Ian didn't look excited at all.

"I am pregnant!" Louis shouted from the bathroom making Harry run over there while Ian giggled as he bounced up and down in his daddy's arms.

"Let me see them." Harry said as he ran into their bathroom seeing Louis standing in front of the sink with six pregnancy tests in front of him.

"All of them are positive." Louis told him already in tears then took Ian in his arms kissing his forehead, "You're going to be a big brother, pumpkin."

"The best." Harry smiled at him wrapping his arms around them kissing their foreheads then Louis' lips, "I'm so happy!"

"So am I, love. So am I." Louis kissed him again sharing a smile unable to have their new baby in their arms.

Thoughts? :)
