"Harry," Zain said gently. "I need you to get up babe."

"Don't feel like it." Harry muttered. "Leave me alone."

"Okay." Zain said, turning on his heels. "I made lunch if you want any."

Harry just hummed and closed his eyes again, trying to go back to sleep.
Zain chewed on his bottom lip as he got to work on emails again. It was now 1 pm and Harry had been sulking in bed all day, and saying he's been having terrible back pains.

Zain looked up when he heard footsteps, and saw Harry coming to join him on the couch. "Hey." Zain smiled. "Are you okay?"

"My back hurts." Harry mumbled. "And I'm tired. But I'm hungry."

"Do you want me to fix you a plate?" Zain asked, setting his laptop back on the coffee table and getting up.
"What'd you make?" Harry asked.

"Sandwiches." Zain said idly and he walked into the kitchen.

"Fine then."

"Hey baby," Harry cooed to Darcy after she woke up from her nap.

He carried her to their bedroom, where Zain was currently showering. Harry sat down on the bed with Darcy and began playing with her.

"Her laugh is so cute." Zain said, coming out of the bathroom with just boxers on and patting his hair dry. "How are you feeling babe?"

"Pregnant." Harry smiled. "Surprisingly, this baby isn't as active as Darcy was."
"Does it worry you sometimes?" Zain asked as he leaned down to rub Harry's belly.
"Sometimes." Harry admitted. "I just have to be super still for her to move."

"Weird." Zain hummed. "Are we having anyone come over to watch Darcy while you're in the hospital?"

Harry shrugged. "Mum and Gemma are busy, so."

"Dad'll be business trip, and Mum and Safaa are free." Zain said. "What about them?"

"Sure." Harry said. "And then we need to pack the hospital bag. They'll be able to watch her for however long we're in the hospital, right?"

"Of course. They'll be more than happy to." Zain assured the brunette, sitting beside him on the bed. "I love you baby."

"I love you too." Harry smiled as he kissed Zain on the lips.

"Wow," Harry gasped quietly, "29 weeks today. I feel pregnant."

"Um," Zain hummed, "yeah. I should- I should hope so."
Harry rolled his eyes and fixed his boxers and flopped onto bed next to Zain. He stretched with a yawn, his shirt riding up just enough to show his belly. He felt a couple jolts in his stomach and smiled. "She has hiccups."

"How do you know that?" Zain asked with a raised brow.
"I asked the midwife what it was last time I felt this jolt." Harry explained. "She said they were hiccups and that babies get them when they practice breathing, or something along those lines."

"Weird." Zain said with a small smile. "Are you excited to have this baby?"

"Yeah." Harry laid his head on Zain's lap. "She's moving. Come feel."

Harry gently grabbed Zain's hand and placed it on his belly, right where you could feel Anna kicking. Zain smiled down at Harry. "Does it not feel weird?"

Harry shrugged. "It just feels like butterflies. Sometimes they feel like actually kicks and all but... mostly butterflies."

"Cute." Zain grinned. "Come cuddle with me babe."

"Do you think this is a good idea?" Harry asked quietly.
Zain furrowed his brows, "what do you mean?"

"Like," Harry shrugged, "having kids one year apart. Is that a good idea?"

"I don't know." Zain answered honestly, hiding his yawn in Harry's hair. "But I'm sure Darcy will be a great older sibling."

Harry just hummed and smiled to himself, leaning into Zain's chest and feeling himself fall asleep.

Hope you enjoyed! 💜
