A Change of Plans (Narry Family)

Request for: lil_aussie_girl

It was just a normal Saturday in the Horan-Styles house, or at least as normal as anything could be for them. With three boys, there was always something interesting going on, whether it was planned or completely unplanned like today was shaping up to be.

The family had planned to go to a new park in London, but as soon as Harry opened his eyes, he knew that wasn't going to happen. It was absolutely pouring rain outside.

Harry groaned softly, burying his face into Niall's chest. "Liam's going to be disappointed," he mumbled.

Niall, still half-asleep, began to trace soothing patterns on his husband's back. "I can already hear the cries," he replied, his voice raspy from sleep.

Harry chuckled lightly. "At least Zayn will be happy he can sleep a bit longer. That kid loves his sleep."

Niall smiled at the thought. Zayn was currently going through a weird phase. He was still a kid surely, but he was starting to show glimpses of what his teenage years will be like. And Harry was right - the eleven-year-old absolutely appreciated his sleep.

Sure enough, just as they had predicted, the door to their bedroom creaked open, and Liam came in with Louis trailing behind him, clutching his stuffed dragon. Liam pouted, his lower lip jutting out. "Daddy, Papa, it's raining," he pouted, plopping on the end of the bed.

Niall reached over and scooped Louis up, causing the little boy to giggle as he tickled him. "Well, good morning to you too, Li," he said, peppering kisses on Louis's cheeks. "And yes, sweetie, it is raining. But that doesn't mean we can't have fun at home."

"Noo, I wanna go to the park," Liam whined, rubbing his eyes.

"I know buddy, but Papa and I just looked at the weather, and it turns out it's going to rain all day," Harry said softly, feeling bad because he knew Liam had been looking forward to today's plans since Monday. "What if we do something just as fun inside, how does that sound?"

"Like what?" Liam asked, his face already brightening up at his dad's words.

"Like... a movie day!"

"Yeah! Let 's do!" Liam bounced a bit, excitedly.

Niall smiled at their son's enthusiasm and turned to Louis. "What do you say about that, Louis?"

Louis nodded, his thumb in his mouth.

"Someone is still a bit sleepy," Harry said, ruffling Louis's hair.

Liam, brimming with excitement, said, "C'mon, Lou let's go wake up Zee!"

"No, no, no, let's let Zayn sleep a bit longer," Niall said quickly, pulling Louis closer. "We can cuddle for a bit before we start the movie day."

"But I wanna watch it now!" Liam protested.

"You have to be patient, Li," Harry said gently, running his fingers through Liam's hair. "You need to wait a bit."

Liam sighed but nodded, lying down in the middle of the bed between his parents. Harry looked to his side and saw that Niall had his eyes closed, and although he couldn't see Louis's face, he was pretty sure the boy was asleep as well.

Harry took the chance that Liam had settled down and let his eyes slip closed. Ten minutes later, everyone was asleep.

When Harry opened his eyes, Niall and Louis were already awake. He blinked sleepily and glanced around, smiling when he saw that Liam was sprawled out, half on top of him and half on the bed, still fast asleep.
