Harry Styles Mini Me

Ch.32: Harry needs a Break

Kian is surprised by how silent the house is. Living with her toddler, Kian is used to a lot of stimulation as soon as she comes into the door. Usually she can hear a tv on in the background, Harry chasing Lennon and/or Lennon screaming or laughing but today it's all silent. 'That's weird' she thinks as she kicks off her shoes and puts down her drink and bag.

"Baby? Where's Lennie?" Usually when she gets home and sees nobody, she can follow the sound of them talking or Lennon laughing but there's nothing. "Haz? Where are you?" She looks through every room until she decides to send Harry a text and go to the bedroom to put on something more cozy. She stops in the middle of the bedroom, dresser drawer open when she notices she hears the shower running.

"Bubby? I'm home. Where's Lennie?" Still no answer. Kian peeks behind the curtain to surprise Harry and find him slumped against the wall, head resting against the tile, eyes closed. You have got to be kidding me? Kian chuckles. He's asleep in the shower with the water running. Instead of sleeping, Kian's anxiety offers another possibility. What if he sat down because he got dizzy and passed out. Getting a bit scared now, Kian quickly shuts off the water and rubs his chest, waiting for a response. "Harry, hey, bubs, it's me. C'mon Harry." After an anxious few seconds, Harry seems to wake up.

"Hi baby... I missed you." Harry whispers. Kian smiles in relief,. He doesn't seem to be confused or wondering how he got into this position. He must've been so tired he just fell asleep in here. Kian rubs her thumb across his cheek lovingly. "Hi bubby, are you okay? What happened." Harry struggles, not attempting to move out of the crunched up position he's in, knees to his chest against the wall.

"I was so tired from working and chasing after Lennie all the time I let Lennie go off to a movie with Aires so I could sleep for a bit..." Kian raises her eyebrows. "In the shower, hon?" Harry smiles. "My skin felt all icky from all the makeup they use on set to cover my tattoos so I wanted to rinse off. The water was warm and I felt cozy.. I got dizzy and sat down. Must've nodded off." Kian smiles. "Here, let's get you out of there and we'll rest okay? Can you stand up?" Harry takes a moment to think about it and extends his hand in answer.

Kian slowly pulls him up and pulls him to her chest, forcing him to take it slow just in case he feels dizzy again. She guides him to get his legs up and over the tub wall and out of the shower. She stops them in front of the toilet as she lightly pushes him to a sitting position, having him sat on the toilet lid. Harry wraps his arms around himself, as Kian grabs the fluffiest towel usually reserved for guests or special occasions and wraps it around him as his teeth continue chattering and his body shivers. "I know it's cold, bubs. Just sit here while I get you some comfy clothes okay?" Harry nods, staying still.

After tucking Harry in bed and shutting off his phone so no one can disturb him for the rest of the day, Kian decides to make them both some food. I mean if Harry is experiencing exhaustion he's gonna need some good food once he wakes up.

An hour and a half later, Harry finally stumbles into the kitchen, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. "Hi bubby, you feeling okay?" Kian checks, stirring the pasta she made at the stove. "Hi..." He whimpers. He must still be a bit too tired for words. As Kian plates up the pasta, Harry shuffles up behind her, hugging her from behind and placing his hands on her growing bump and his lips in her neck. "Ah! That tickles!" Kian chuckles. Harry then places his head on her shoulder and sways the both of them. "How're you feeling Haz? Better now?" "Mmmm. Still a bit dizzy. I definitely need some of my wife's good cooking." Kian smiles. She loves feeling useful and loves helping. "Please sit down. I don't want you getting worse." Harry nods, setting himself in the closest chair keeping one of his hands on her bump.

"Lennie's not back yet? It's nearly six o' clock?" Harry glances at the door like his son could be coming through the door any minute, a slight pout on his lips. Kian turns, offering Harry a big bowl of pasta. "Aires and Len ambushed me on FaceTime after the movie begging me to have a sleepover so, he's over there for the night. Aires is probably hopping him up on all the sugar so tomorrow might be a shit-show when he crashes." Harry pouts up at her, eyes a bit misty. "Babies first sleepover. Oh my gosh." Kian smiles, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Don't make me think about it or I'm going to cry too!" They both laugh, silence coming over the room as they shovel pasta in their mouths.
