Baby Niall

Chappy 12

Niall noticed how giddy the lads all were this morning. They kept giving eachother glances, and then giggling to themselves.

"Papa, I finished," Niall announced, and held up his empty pancake plate. A drop of syrup fell, and landed on his forehead.

Instead of scolding him for being careless, Zayn only took a rag and wiped it off sweetly saying,"Good boy!"

Niall found that weird, but decided not to question it.

Throughout the morning, everyone was in a good mood. Not that everyone was in a bad mood, but what I mean is that everyone was extra happy this morning.

Louis and Niall were cuddled on the couch watching SpongeBob, and he got a text. Niall payed no attention to it, but then Louis leapt up shouting,"He's here!"

Then, all the boys ran past a dumbfounded Niall. He heard the door open, and then a couple of 'Awe's. He couldn't see past the boys, but he heard the familiar voice of ... Greg!

"Greg!" Niall shouted, pushing past the lads. His brother stood there with open arms, and collapsed each other into a hug.

"I miss you!" Niall said, hiding his face in the crook of his neck. Greg laughed, and said,"I miss you too, little buddy."

Niall didn't see what the lads were cooing over, and when he turned around he saw his Momma holding a baby. He was like a smaller duplicate of Niall: chubby, red cheeks, blonde hair, the bluest eyes, and the cutest smile.

"Who that?" Niall asked.

"That? That's Theo," Greg answered for him, and then sadly he had to leave. Niall hugged him a few more times, and then let him go.

When he couldn't see the car down the road anymore, he turned around to see that everyone was gone. Weird.

"Daddy?" He called out, he didn't get the answer he had hoped for. Instead he heard,"He's the cutest baby ever!"

That confused Niall, because he was told that he was the cutest baby ever.

He turned the corner, and there were all four of the lads in the living room, surrounding Their in the floor.

"Niall, say hey to Theo," Zayn said, not glancing away from him. Niall waved, and The burst into a fit of giggles.

That sent the boys into fits of coos, and Niall sheepishly asked Louis,"Momma? Can we watch TV?"

"Oh! Turn the channel!" Louis said, and when they did, the baby channel came up. It was nothing but shapes and color dancing around the screen, and Niall scrunched his nose.

"But Ni was watching SpongeBob!" he whined, not liking that the baby was taking away his Momma.

"Niall, go play in your room," Harry said sternly, picking up Theo.

Niall, hurt, did as he was told. He walked up the stairs, something that he hated to do alone, and went into his room. He opened the door, and sat down next to his blanket.

An hour passed on, and when Niall was in the middle of playing with his toys, Louis barged in with it in his arms.

"Niall go downstairs. Theo needs a nap!" Louis said, putting the baby down in Niall's bed.

"Where Ni-Ni take nap?" He asked, clutching his blanket to him.

"The couch," He said without a thought. Niall hated that couch, now.

"That's Niall's bed," Niall pointed to Theo, who was already asleep,"Ni sleeps in his bed!"
