Now it was stuck in Harry's head that cutting off Ian's hair had to do with the fact that their little boy had gotten a cold. A few days after Louis' appointment, Ian had woken up sneezing and coughing and by noon he was running a slight fever. Worried out of his mind, Harry had taken him to his pediatrician after Louis had gone to work and he had stayed home with him because of the snow. He had gone to the pharmacy to have his prescription filled then had to pay extra so they could add the grape flavor or it was going to be hell to give it to Ian.
By the time Louis got home Ian was a crying mess hating how he couldn't breathe through his nose and him crying was only making it worse. They had to use a disposable bulb syringe to clear out his nose passages when Ian still didn't quite get how to blow his nose freaking him out and making him cry more. Louis hated seeing him like that and even more when Ian was acting all miserable seeking comfort, his target being Louis when he was the one to actually hold him all the time.
Two days later Louis was already regretting it when Ian had become extremely clingy only towards him wanting to be held at all times otherwise it was a crying fit. He would hold him while he cooked, while he sorted through laundry, while they were eating and especially while they were watching tv making it impossible for Louis to go to the bathroom and shower in peace.
"I'll be right back." Louis whispered in Harry's ear seeing Ian with his back to them playing with his plastic blocks then Harry nodding as he turned the volume up so their son wouldn't hear Louis leaving.
But of course their son had ears like a hawk and as soon as Louis made it through the kitchen door making a bit of noise, Ian dropped his red plastic block and let out a loud wail running after Louis. He made it to the kitchen door when Louis walked out with a water bottle bumping into him making him fall down on his bum and the crying get louder.
"Oh, I'm sorry pumpkin. Dada didn't see you." Louis picked him up and hugged him tight making his way back to the couch where he sat down next to Harry who only turned the volume up when he couldn't hear the tv over Ian's cries.
"Ian, you need to stop crying." Harry finally snapped tired of hearing him cry all day.
"He's sick, Harry. You whine a lot when you're sick." Louis glared at him then quickly started patting Ian's back when he started coughing.
Harry rolled his eyes then went back to watching tv sighing in relief when Ian stopped crying but it was only because Louis was giving him water straight from the bottle. He then watched Louis drink from it too while Ian watched him waiting for him to give him more.
"You're gonna get sick too if you keep doing that." Harry scolded him, "Give him to me." He said picking Ian up and placed him on his lap groaning when Ian started crying again wanting to go to Louis.
"No, dahey no!" Ian cried and just like that, Harry gave him back to Louis who was glaring at him.
Bedtime was worse when Ian was the first to walk into their bedroom as if he owned the place then stood on Louis' side of the bed until he picked him up and placed him in the middle. Louis had let him sleep with them when he was too scared to leave him alone in his crib when Ian's nose was too stuffy. He was starting to make his way to the bathroom while Harry brushed his teeth when Ian got off the bed and ran after him wanting to go into the bathroom with him.
"Ian, baby I have to potty!" Louis wanted to cry at that point trying to push his son out of there, "Harry, help me." Louis begged.
"I'm brushing my teeth, babe." Harry said having warned him and now he wasn't going to help when Louis didn't listen to him.
"I have to take a shit and I can't if he's in there with me!" Louis glared at him seeing him shrugging it off as if he didn't give a fuck, "Fucking jerk!" He snapped, grabbed Ian then slammed the door closed locking it as fast as he could.
He set Ian down on the farthest corner away from him which wasn't much then took a seat on the closed lid of the toilet knowing he wasn't going to get to relieve himself with Ian there. They stayed there staring at each other until Ian took a step forward and tried to hug Louis making the older man smile and pick him up placing him on his lap. He kissed the top of his head then grabbed toilet paper to try and teach him how to blow his nose when the door suddenly opened and Harry walked in having picked the lock.
"Not you too." Louis groaned, "Where has my privacy gone to in this house!?"
"Are you taking a shit with him on your lap?" Harry asked as his eyes widened when Louis' glare turned murderous.
"Yes Harry, he's also going to wipe my asshole." Louis rolled his eyes.
"I got him, babe. You do your business." Harry smiled at him wondering if Louis was already hormonal then grabbed Ian wincing when his son started crying, "Oh don't cry party pooper, let me show you the internet and the wonder that is youtube where lots and lots of cute videos of puppies and kittens exist." Harry said then left after kissing the top of Louis' head laughing when he heard the door closing then the click of the lock.
Harry gently threw Ian on the bed being careful not to hurt him hearing his cries turning into a laugh then grabbed his laptop and sat down right next to Ian. He turned it on and waited for it to load before opening a new window going straight to youtube. He searched for videos of puppies and kittens until he found one he liked while Ian watched him as he clicked play waiting for it to load.
As soon as the puppy showed up on the screen Ian crawled to sit in front of the laptop blocking Harry's view who didn't mind as long as it kept him entertained and quiet. He grabbed his phone and started playing a game smiling every time Ian would giggle then give him his attention whenever his son wanted him to watch the video with him.
Almost forty five minutes and many videos later Harry started getting worried when Louis was still in the bathroom wondering if he was constipated. Just when he was about to get up and check on him, Louis walked out with wet hair and a towel wrapped around his body. He raised his brows wondering why he was covering up when they always walked around naked then his gaze went back to Ian thinking that his husband just didn't want to be naked around their son.
He watched him as he searched for something in his drawers pulling out his pajamas and black briefs holding tight onto the towel. He made his way back into the bathroom coming back out again a few minutes later then plugged in his phone to charge. He undo the bed laying down without acknowledging Harry much less Ian who was still watching videos.
Harry wanted to say something when he noticed the baby bump Louis was already sporting and he hadn't notice before. Louis wasn't one to show that fast and when he did, it had only been a cute well rounded belly and nothing else. But this time it was his second pregnancy, he was carrying twins and the situation was different.
"Babe..." Harry rolled over right next to him wrapping his arm over Louis' waist careful not to disturb Ian.
"Can you brush Ian's teeth?" Louis asked already half asleep feeling extremely comfortable with Harry close to him and actual silence with no crying toddlers.
"What? No, you're in charge of that." Harry whined not wanting to go near Ian's teeth. He was his main target when it came to biting no matter how many times he scolded him for it.
Ian just didn't care to be honest.
"I know but can you please do that for me just this once?" Louis rubbed his eyes with his small fists, "I'm really tired...I don't feel good."
"Hey, what is it?" Harry sat up looking extremely worried. His husband and children could be dying for all he knew, "Please tell me what's wrong."
"Nothing. I'm just really tired and..." Louis paused when his bottom lip started trembling and soon the tears were falling as he tried to stop crying and wipe them away, "And I want to sleep. I want to have my own space for a bit with no noise and light and just sleep."
Harry watched him feeling bad for not helping him out with Ian when he had clung to Louis like a leech for the past two days. He gently wrapped his arms around Louis and let him cry it out already knowing this pregnancy was going to be a hard one. When Louis finally stop crying, Harry handed him a few kleenex just when the video ended and Ian looked at him expecting him to play another.
"Go to sleep, babe. I'll sacrifice my fingers for you, okay. If you want to, Ian and I can go sleep on the pull out couch so you're comfortable tonight and well rested tomorrow." Harry kissed the top of Louis' head feeling him shaking it.
"No, don't go. I just wanna sleep and I'm not gonna be able to if you're gone." Louis sniffled.
"Okay then, I'm gonna go brush his teeth." Harry smiled at him then grabbed the laptop sighing when Ian screamed and held onto it not wanting to let go.
"Pumpkin, it's time for bed. We're gonna go night night." Louis said managing to distract him then watched his son crawl up to him and rest his head on his tummy ready to go to sleep. Louis wondered how that was going to work out when he got bigger.
"No sir." Harry picked him up seeing him frowning then rolled his eyes when Ian started fake crying, "You have to brush your teeth first or they're gonna fall off and you just got them. How are you gonna make all those babies out there fall in love with your cute self if you don't have any teeth." Harry cooed before he loudly kissed his cheek making Louis smile at the cute scene.
Harry was surprised when Ian didn't bite him at all and when they were done he praised him as he walked to his bedroom to get him ready for bed. Ian was now a happy kid while Harry changed his diaper then dressed him up in warm pajamas making sure to take his giraffe back to his bedroom with him. When they got there, Louis was already asleep on his side facing Harry's side curled up into a ball looking cuter and softer than ever.
"Be careful peanut, we don't wanna wake up dada. Shh." Harry gently placed Ian on the bed where he made his way to Louis and lay down next to him as close as he could. The kid sure loved his father.
Harry just smiled and lay down next to them turning the lamp light off feeling Ian moving then the tiny content sigh before he fell asleep followed by Harry. He was woken up at two in the morning by Ian who wanted his warm milk feeling bad when he realized he had forgotten to give it to him before bed. He made his way to the kitchen trying to hurry up and when he got back, Ian already had his head resting on Louis' belly then took the sippy cup drinking right away.
By next day Louis was already well rested having time for himself when Harry didn't let Ian cling to him that much understanding that Louis needed his space. He had finally charged the battery for his black Mercedes-Benz having to spend almost all day trying to teach Ian how to drive it and by the afternoon his son already knew how to go straight. He had no idea how to make a turn and much less go back and everytime he got stuck, Harry was forced to get up and help him when Ian kept calling for him.
As the days passed by, Louis' morning sickness got better knowing they had to tell their family soon enough when he only kept getting bigger. He had started hiding his body from Harry when he was gaining weight all over and not just a cute belly like when he had been pregnant with Ian. A saturday morning they found themselves in Jay's house when she had invited them all for breakfast just because.
They were all sitting around her big dining room table while the children were at the kiddie table Jay had asked Anne to let her borrow. Louis was trying to think of ways to tell them he was expecting as he fed Ian who was sitting on his lap until he decided to fuck it and just tell them.
"I'm pregnant." Louis announced making the whole room go quiet, "I'm sixteen weeks and they're fraternal twins."
"What?" Jay's eyes filled with tears then got up to hug him, "Oh my baby! I'm so happy, I'm gonna be a grandma again!"
"And twins!" Anne exclaimed getting up to hug him too, "This is wonderful."
"Do you know what you're having?" Des asked looking happier than ever.
"Not yet but hopefully by my next appointment." Louis told him giving Ian to Fizzy so they could touch his baby bump that wasn't so little anymore.
"No wonder why you looked bigger- ow!" Lottie exclaimed looking at fizzy with wide angry eyes when her sister smacked her on the back of the head.
"Shut up." Fizzy glared at her.
"I meant his belly, you jerk." Lottie wanted to hit her too but stopped when she noticed Ian was watching her as if waiting for her next move.
They stared at each other until Ian gave her a cute smile and turned to look away when she pulled a funny face, seconds later he looked at her again pulling the same face making Lottie smile.
"Girls, it's okay." Louis smiled at them knowing it was true he looked bigger.
"Anyway!" Anne exclaimed, "We're gonna have three new family members and I just can't wait. Congratulations sweethearts." She hugged both Louis and Harry.
"Congratulations." Christian smiled at them.
"Congrats! I am so excited!" Gemma slowly got up to go hug them.
"Thank you, Gems." Louis smiled at her, "Hopefully one of them is a girl, that way Carly will have someone her age to play with."
"Now that will be cute." Gemma chuckled.
The rest of breakfast was great and fun until they absolutely had to leave and when Louis and Harry got home, Ian was asleep waking up in the middle of Louis changing him out of his syrup stained shirt. He only looked around, frowned then yawned before he fell asleep again after he had run everywhere with Gemma's twins who loved to tickle him. After he put him in his crib he went to take a nap himself then let Harry hold him who decided he wanted to take a nap too.
When Melissa's birthday came around it was celebrated in Gemma's house when she had insisted not wanting to make a mess in her mum's house. Both Louis and Harry had gotten there earlier to help her out when she couldn't move much due to the baby. They had laughed when Ian kept staring at her belly with wide eyes then when she made him touch it as soon as she had felt her daughter kicking.
After Melissa had opened all her gifts she was excited to play with her brand new stroller that included a car seat and diaper bag then a baby doll her father had gotten for her. Ian had followed her everywhere until she started playing with him giving him her old stuff as well as the baby doll loving how he actually paid attention to her unlike her brothers. Ian would babble nonsense and Melissa would nod along and tell him something as they pushed the strollers around the house.
At the end of the day they had ended up taking them home with them when Ian refused to leave them behind and when both Gemma and Melissa said it was okay. When they got home Ian continued playing with the stroller and when dinner time came around Louis was forced to go to the store for some ingredients taking Ian and the car seat with the baby doll when Ian already had it in his hands.
When he got to the store he ignored the people giving him looks whenever they saw his son sitting in the basket playing with the baby doll glad that he was almost done. He smiled at the ones who would look at his child with a genuine smile on their faces and his smile got bigger when he spotted Zayn trying to pick some tomatoes.
"Zayn!" Louis called his name making Zayn look up then around for whoever had called for him until he spotted him.
"Lou! Haven't seen you in forever." Zayn smiled making his way to them having decided that he had enough tomatoes then looked at Ian as he hugged Louis, "My gosh look at you all grown up! And you got a baby, sugar plum." Zayn cooed at him as he picked him up.
Once Ian was in his arms he loudly kissed his cheeks chuckling when Ian showed him the baby doll so he could kiss it too. He put him back down in the basket being careful with the car seat rolling his eyes when some people gave them disapproving looks.
"Are you almost done with your shopping?" Louis asked him as he grabbed a few bananas to have something to give Ian along with his breakfast the following day.
"Yeah, just need a few things that Liam forgot yesterday." Zayn said.
"Okay, you never gave us a date and I never asked, but when are you and Liam going to finally get married?" Louis asked.
"October. You will no longer be pregnant." Zayn smirked when Louis gaped.
"I look so big, don't I?" Louis pouted, "They're twins." He sighed.
"Twins!? Harry failed to tell us that, I think Liam and Niall were already fighting over godparent rights but now they can both be if you guys allow it." Zayn gave him a smile lifting his hand up silently asking Louis if he could and when Louis nodded, he put his hand over it trying to stop smiling like a fool.
"The jerk couldn't even wait for me to tell you together." Louis shook his head in amusement.
"Congratulations! You should have heard him, he was so excited and was already hoping for a girl." Zayn said looking down at Ian who decided to stand up dropping his baby doll in the process, "Don't drop your baby, sugar." Zayn sighed bending down to pick it up.
"Baby. Mine." Ian said earning smiles from both adults until the moment was ruined when they heard someone scoffing.
They turned around to look at an older woman looking at Ian then the doll in his arms with a disgusted expression and for once Louis was glad Harry wasn't there. He would have already skinned the bitch alive for looking at his son the way she was doing. Louis tried to ignore feeling hurt in his son's behalf when Ian cradled the baby cooing nonsense at it and she had the nerve to even speak to them.
"What a shame." She said before she turned around to continue with her shopping.
Zayn saw red when he saw how hurt Louis looked hugging Ian close trying to hide him from her, "Excuse me? What did you just say?" He glared at her making her look at them again.
"I said what a shame you're making that poor boy play with toys meant for girls. What? You want him to be a sissy like you?" She glared.
"Look you bi-" Zayn started.
"Leave it Zayn, she's not worth it." Louis interrupted him but Zayn kept going not giving a fuck if he was making a scene.
"Listen you old hag, why don't you get a life and stop making bitchy comments about ours. And for the love of god fix your makeup, you look like a fucking clown." Zayn spat then looked her up and down as if she was scum before he turned around and guided Louis out of there leaving a few people laughing at the woman who was as red as a cherry.
They didn't stop until they were a few aisles over ending up in the ice cream section where Zayn opened a freezer looking for something until he grabbed two boxes of chocolate cones putting them in his basket. He then opened another pulling out a gallon of neapolitan ice cream mumbling a few things.
"You okay?" Louis asked once again holding onto Ian.
"No. Let me hold the baby." Zayn said then sighed when Louis gave him Ian seeing how his friend was hugging his son, "She pissed me off, Louis. People like her are so stupid, so what if your little boy is playing with toys that are supposedly meant for girls. Kids can play with whatever the fudge they want." Zayn frowned making Louis laugh when he censored himself.
"They're idiots." Louis agreed, "When are you going to pop out a kid?" He asked interrupting Zayn who was cooing nonsense at Ian making his son giggle.
"I don't know." Zayn shrugged, "Maybe in a few years or maybe sooner because my mum won't stop telling me she's going to be in her deathbed with still no grandchildren, which is bull because she's gonna outlive us all." He ranted.
"I do believe you when you say she's going to outlive us all, she's a strong and very healthy woman." Louis commented.
"Yeah. She keeps complaining about how she hasn't seen Ian in forever and just wait until you tell her you're having twins, she's gonna start knitting them cute blankets." Zayn chuckled making Louis smile.
"I have the one she gave Ian in my closet along with his coming home clothes, he only used it when he was little and I actually want it to last so he's not gonna get it back." Louis smiled at Ian.
"He's that bad? I've heard stories..." Zayn tickled Ian's side making him squeal and squirm in his hold, "You are such a cutie!"
"He peeled off the front of Harry's boots with just his teeth. Harry was devastated." Louis laughed.
"Oh wow. And he still has teeth?" Zayn joked then looked at Louis, "Are you done with your shopping? Sorry if I kept you from it."
"Nah. Did I keep you from finishing?" Louis asked.
"I'm done, just needed the ice cream." Zayn shrugged moving to put Ian back in the basket.
"Then let's go pay so we can leave this place." Louis started walking followed by Zayn.
They saw the lady again who tried to avoid them like the plague then said their goodbyes when they figured Zayn had parked on the other side of the parking lot. Louis buckled Ian up first then made sure to set the baby car seat next to his seat then gave the baby to Ian who held if for dear life. He then loaded the bags in the car and when he has done he returned the cart then got in the car. He started it and soon they were on their way back home where Harry walked out to help with the bags as soon as Louis had parked the car in his usual spot.
"What's wrong?" Harry asked as soon as he saw Louis looking a bit upset and Ian walked around the kitchen pushing the stroller with the baby doll inside of it. Harry hated the doll when it was the ugliest baby doll he had ever seen.
"Some old hag at the store who tried to shame me for letting Ian play with a baby doll." Louis shrugged then smiled, "Zayn was there and put her in her place."
"I would say hope she's okay after Zayn was through with her but the bitch deserved it." Harry glared at nothing in particular until Ian bumped the stroller against the kitchen island and the baby went flying forward and onto the floor. Ian looked at it as his eyes filled with tears then started crying looking up at his parents with pouty lips.
"Aww pumpkin, it's okay. The baby's okay. See?" Louis picked it up putting it back in the stroller making sure to buckle it up, "There, all buckled up so she doesn't fall again."
Harry wiped away his tears with a paper towel then let him go so he could continue playing while they cooked dinner and when it was finally done, they sat down to eat. Later that night Louis took a shower while Harry read a story to Ian making sure to be in bed and covered up by the time Harry walked in. His husband just furrowed his brows then went to take a shower but not before kissing Louis on the lips.
By the time Harry was ready to go to bed, Louis was already asleep and all Harry did was spoon him hating how he was starting to hide his body from him. Louis' thighs,belly and bum had gotten a bit bigger and the thought that Louis felt insecure with his own body was killing Harry. Harry loved him no matter what and as he fell asleep, he thought of ways to show him just that. If he was honest, the thought of Louis so pregnant turned him on and he was going to show Louis the effect he had on him.
Thoughts? :)
