Chapter 45

July 16th

Grayson- 13 weeks

Atlas's POV

"Hello to you too" I coo at the baby next to me.  I snatched Gray from Dad when he wasn't looking and took him out to the common room. Laying out the baby blanket I set the child on his back. 

All he had was his diaper on, his bare chest pale just like the rest of our family's.  He smiled up at me his arms out ready to be grabbed.  I put a hand on his stomach tickling him.

He let out non-verbal laughs his legs thrashing around as he tried to kick me away. "You're such a little cutie" I whisper going back to tickling him. He gurgles to himself his ghostly eyes glued shut only opening when I stop.

I squint my own eyes making a silly face at him. Gray reaches up for me his body still too heavy for him to bring himself any closer. I lean in closer placing my lips on his tummy. A tiny noise escapes his mouth surprising me a bit, because besides gurgling and small crying he doesn't make any noise.

I go back to what I was doing and blow raspberries up and down his stomach. His eyes close shuts as he grabs onto my hair trying to pull me off. Once I'm out of breath I wipe the baby's stomach off and lift him over my head.

"You are just the cutest" I repeat myself and he smiles one of the most adorable little smiles, letting adorable little gurgles out. You could see his teeth just starting to come in, but I don't think the pain had set in for tiny Gray.

Bringing him back down I kiss his head before cradling him in my arms. "I love you so much" I whisper playing with his already full head of blonde hair.  "Atlas Raye Malfoy!" Dad yells scaring the crap out of me.

I turn around slowly still holding the baby who was attempting to look over at Dad, after hearing the familiar voice.  "Do you know how worried I was" he sighs rubbing his eyes.

"I turn around for one minute and the baby's gone" he rants as I attempt to hide my smile knowing I was getting lectured.  "I was preparing my speech and everything for how I was going to tell your Papa that I had somehow managed to lose a newborn" he lets out an exasperated sigh.

"You what!" Papa suddenly shouts coming from another hall, I'm assuming Seren's room.  Emerson was on his hip, he was at the age that he was almost too big to be carried anymore.  Papa didn't seem to mind though I don't think anybody did.

Emerson had been the baby of the family for years now, none of us wanted him to grow up. Yet the giggling thing still seems to be getting bigger. "Nothing lovely" Dad attempts to save himself walking over to my Papa who was booping EJ on the nose.

"No, I'm pretty sure I heard something about you losing my kid" he stands his ground, letting Emerson onto the ground.  The toddler stays still for a minute, before waddling over to me and Gray.  Who was still looking around wondering what all the ruckus was for.

"Baby it was nothing, Grayson is obviously over there with Atlas, so everything is fine" he tried to talk his way out of it wrapping his arms around papa's waist. Papa looks to the ground flushed as Dad pulls him closer and that's when I advert my eyes.

"Well, if it was nothing just tell me why you would say that you lost our child" he pulls himself out of Dad's trance. "It was Atlas's fault" Dad whines making me gasp. "How dare you, blame me" I speak up absolutely... actually I'm not shocked at all.

"Both of you are actual children" Papa groans starting to walk over to me. He lets out a small yip covering his mouth after Dad gave him a hard slap on the arse. I groan at the gross sight I just had to suffer through.

"Let's go, Gray, come to Papa" he coos squatting down to take the baby from me. His face seems to brighten even more when he sees him. "Don't worry I won't lose you" Papa giggles as I chuckle thinking Dad was about to throw a fit.

Looking at him you could tell he was thinking about anything but that.  "Papa... go lock yourself in the bathroom" I attempt to warn him. His eyes widen as he flips around Grayson grabbing at his finger. Dad had a smirk on his face as he looked his lover up and down.

"I have the child with me, don't you dare" Papa sneers attempting to get away. He scurries down the hall Dad quickly following as I roll my eyes. "Pervert" I grumble grabbing Emerson while he attempts to run by me trying to go for Papa and Dad.

"Atwas stop!" He whines trying to get out of my grip. "Buddy you don't want to go with them" I try to keep him still.  "Stop I want dwaddy!" He cries making me groan. "I have a feeling Dad and Papa are going to be busy soon" I try to explain. What are they going to do with Gray... they should have just let me keep him.

Now, Uncle Ron or Blaise is going to get him... not fair.  "No! I was going to play with Papa" he sniffles wiping his eyes. He calms down his thrashing, no longer trying to get out of my grip.

"Hey EJ" the delicate voice of my boyfriend whispers as he slides down next to us. "hi, Ashy" he giggles wiping away his tears. "Are you okay?" He asks putting his arms out for the upset child.

I release the wild thing and he jumps into Asher's arms. "I okie... Atwas was being mean to me" he tattles as I stare at him in shock... I was just trying to let him live a trauma-free childhood. "Oh, I'm sure he didn't mean it" Ash mumbles hugging him to his chest.

The toddler lets himself slide down into his lap and nods. He doesn't stay down long and jumps right back up about knocking Ash in the face.  "Can I have a Kwss?" He whispers already grabbing at his face. "A kiss? Why?" Ash giggles rubbing EJs back.

"Be-Because I wove you" he laughs patting his face.  "I love you too buddy" Ash whispers giving him a small peck on the lips. "Hey not fair" I grumble watching the scene unfold.

Ash smiles leaning over to me. I smile happy I was getting what I wanted, but instead of getting a kiss, I get a smack in the face. "Emerson!" I shout rubbing my sensitive nose.

"Stay away frum my bofyend" the child shouts, me sending him a glare. "Actually he's my boyfriend!" I correct the toddler who does not seem happy with my answer.

"No! Mine!" He shouts jumping back into his arms. Asher was red at the face while he hugged the toddler, patting his back. "Nope! mine!" I attempt to rip Emerson from his grip.

"Atlas be nice" my boyfriend lectures me making me stick out my bottom lip. "It's not fair!" I whine getting a look from both of them. "Stop being baby!" EJ shakes his head no, making it extremely hard not to chuck my lovely brother at the couch.

"Atwas is Git!" The child shouts pointing at me. I stick my tongue back out at him. Asher gasps letting him go. "Emerson that's not a good word" he whispers the boy running back into his chest. "I'm sowwy, please no hate me! I wove you!" The deceiving toddler pouts his innocent-looking face hiding the actual devil inside.

"It's okay buddy, I'm sure you didn't mean it" Asher pats his head. I roll my eyes as the two embrace. "Well, I guess we don't have to tell your parents about us anymore" I joke. Asher's head whips up and I can see his heartbreak within his eyes.

"Atlas don't say that..." he whispers. "Oh, Angel I was just kidding" I attempt to scoot closer to comfort him getting pushed away by tiny fist. "You made boyfend oopset, go way Atwas!" Asher's other protective boyfriend gets in the way.

"Emerson it's okays, he was only joking around" Ash chuckles as I quickly rub his cheek with my thumb. "Don't listen to me I'm stupid-" I whisper, getting cut off as I'm pushed away once again. "EJ let me talk to my boyfriend" I laugh at the furious toddler.

"Bofwend?" He looks over to Ash with wide eyes. "I am you bofwyend wight?" The toddler asks his eyes wide with an adorable pout. I look up to Asher who gives me an apologetic smile.

"Don't do it... don't give in" I mouth, getting a glare from EJ. He immediately looks back at Ash his face returning to the cute puppy dog pout he had before... definitely Papa's kid.

"I'm sorry"

"No"

"Yes EJ, I'm your boyfriend"

"Yay!"

"Utterly ridiculous"
