Ever since Liam left all Harry says is, "Harry love Niall." Its adorable but he doesn't even know what it means. He's clueless, just enjoying the fact that he can say a new word.

But I guess its not that bad, Liam could have taught him much worse.

At the moment Harry and I are watching tv. Some cartoon was on and Harry seemed to like it.

I glanced over at him, and watched as he licked the back of his hand before smoothing back his hair as a cat would do. He continued to do what he was doing as I watched, then he noticed me staring and looked over at me.

"Let's go to bed Harry." He stares back confused, I get up and by now when I get up, he gets up on his own. I lead him to his room, sitting him down on the bed. Then I head to my room but when I start to leave, Harry speaks.

"Niall.. Please.." Harry frowns at me leaving. I look over at him, and shakes my head.

"No, Harry." He slightly pouts at me and whimpers.

"Please.." He tries again.

"No, Harry. Go to sleep." I leave his room, shutting his door on my way into my room.

I feel bad that Harry is upset but he can't sleep with me. Maybe I'm just scared I'll catch feelings.. But what would everyone say if I started liking him or worse dating him. No one would approve of that. He's a hybrid that acts like a 2 year old.

I sigh, getting into bed, letting my thoughts consume me as I fall asleep not as peacefully as I hoped I would.

2 weeks later.

Our routine, has been almost the same everyday. We wake up, have breakfast, watch tv, then Zayn or Liam comes over. Harry has been improving a lot in the past couple weeks. He was a very fast learner but Zayn told me hybrids were all fast learners as there brains were adapted in ways different from ours.

His speech is still little and full of errors but he can speak a lot more than when we started with him.

This morning was like all other, I woke up and went to make breakfast. As I reached the kitchen and got out the ingredients, Harry came out to the kitchen, rubbing his eyes, then looking up at me.

"Hi, Niall." He says, eyes lighting up as he sees me. I give him a slight nod of acknowledgment.

"Morning, Harry." I continues on the task in front of me, making breakfast. He sits down at the table and waits for me to join him with food.

I bring him a plate, of the steaming hot bacon and eggs, setting it down in front of him. "Thank Niall." He thanks me.

"Your welcome, Harry. Be caref-" I'm cut of by his high pitched whine, seeing he burnt his hand, from grabbing a piece of bacon as soon as I put it in front of him.
A few tears roll down his red cheeks. "Harry hurt." I take his burnt hand in mine to examine it. Just a little blistered, nothing that bad. He whimpers.

"You have to he careful Harry." I lead him over to the sink and gently put his hand under cold water. He winces away, trying to free his hand from me. I grab some ointment and a bandaid and easily fix up his hand.

"There all better now." He looks at his hand.

"Thank Niall." He says quietly. I go back over to the table, him following me.

Then we go back to eating, Harry being more careful about what he does.

A little while later, we sit on the couch, Harry holds his burnt hand protectively.

"Is your hand okay Harry?." He gives me a tiny nod.

"Zayn here?" I nod, understanding his toddler talk.

"Yes Zayn will be here soon."

As of on cue, a knock on the door has Harry quickly racing to the door. "Harry!" I yell at him as he opens the door, revealing Zayn.

Zayn smiles at him. "Hi, Harry." I go over to them.

"Harry, you shouldn't be opening the door! What if it wasn't Zayn?" Harry whimpers, and gets tears in his eyes as he looks down. He was very sensitive.

"Sorry, Niall.." He keeps his head down. Zayn looks at me.

"Did you have to yell at him Ni? He doesn't know any better." Zayn says.

"But what if it wasn't you? Anyone could have been there and Hybrids are so popular but rare, what if he was kidnapped?!" Zayn rolls his eyes.

"No ones gonna kidnap him Niall." He looks at Harry. "Its alright Harry." Harry looks up at him.

"Zayn show Harry words?" Harry sniffles. Zayn smiles and nods at Harry.

"Today, I'm gonna show you what different feelings there are." Harry smiles, Zayn looks at Harry's hand, noticing the bandage. "What happen to his hand?" He looks at me, his voice tinted with worry.

"He burnt his hand on his breakfast this morning, but its only slightly blistered and I took care of it." Zayn nods.

"Okay, well let's get to work Harry." They take a seat on the couch and get to work on the lesson today.

I pay attention to the whatever's on tv. Watching some rerun of a show that was playing, Friends I think it was. I let my mind drift away instead of paying attention to it.

After a few minutes I am snapped back into reality by the mention of my name, I glance over at Zayn and Harry.

Zayn smiles at him. "You do?" Harry nods at whatever Zayn is referring to. "Aww." He looks over at me, catching me staring.

I look at him slightly confused. He must sense my confusion. "Harry was just telling me all the things he loves, cause were discussing different feelings, and you," he points his finger at me, smirking slightly. "Happened to get onto Niall's list, looks like he's got a little crush." Then he adds jokingly, "Who knows why?"

I blush a dark red at the thought of Harry loving me even after he's been explained the meaning of the word. Harry is amazing and hot but at the same time cute as fuck, and it completely seems irrelevant to even think of him with me.

"Aww, Niall's blushing!" Zayn coos at him.

"What bla-sheng?" Harry asks Zayn. He chuckles at his pronunciation of the word.

Zayn brushes his fingers over my cheeks. "Its the red that comes into your cheeks when your embarrassed." Harry looks at my cheeks, admiring the red, he runs his finger on my cheek like Zayn did, then giggles smiling at me.

"Yea, yea, yea. Go back to your lesson." I turn back to the tv, hoping the blush would leave, along with Zayn's annoying teasing. Zayn let's it go quickly, turning back to his lessons with Harry.
