What can I do, my baby's obsessed with you! [L.S.]

prologue

"Don't let go of the trolley, yeah?"

The boy nods, giving his dad a toothy smile.
Harry only stares at him, remembering his history of screaming through the lanes of the supermarket to find his son.

"I'm very serious, Andrew. If you leave my side, I will go home without you."

The boy- Andrew Styles- huffs. He got his stubborn streak from his father, that little alpha.
"But daddy, I saw a pretty girl!" And his love for omegas might be inherited too. What can he say, Harry has always been a romantic, willing to try any chance at love to find 'the one'.

"Running after pretty girls is not going to get you home, darling. So you better hold on tight."

Pouting, Andrew does what he is told.

After thirty minutes of putting random stuff into the trolley- and giggling when his father finds out- the duo finally moves to the checkout counter.

Peering around, Andrew finds a man standing beside him, waiting in the checkout line too. He looks up, staring at the man's face. Tugging at his trousers, Andrew calls for him.

The man looks down with a furrow between his eyebrows, his blue eyes softening at the sight of the little alpha.
"Hello?"

"Hi! I'm Andy." The enthusiasm is infectious and it lightens the weight on the man's lips too.

"Hello Andy, I'm Louis." Louis gives him a little wave in greeting.

The boy giggles, cheeks flushing, but he peers up at Louis again. "You very pretty."

The man chuckles at that, crouching down a little to talk to the little alpha. "Thank you, love. You've just made my day by saying that. You are very handsome too."

Grinning without inhibition, Andrew preens under Louis's attention. "Daddy say, you always tell people they pretty."

Humming, Louis nods. "Your daddy is very right. But you've also got to be careful of strangers."

Pouting, Andrew points to his other hand that is tightly holding onto the trolley's basket. "I did not run to talk to pretty Louis." That makes Louis let out a full blown laugh.

It attracts Harry's attention from his ongoing call and his eyes widen at the scene. Seems like his little alpha will always find ways to talk to strangers. Harry is tired of giving him the 'stranger danger' talk at least five times a week.

"What do we have here?" He peers down to see his boy blushing, giggling while talking to an omega.

"Daddy! This is pretty Louis!" Harry raises an eyebrow at that, looking at the omega's face for the first time.

Pretty describes him alright. He's gorgeous. His electric blue eyes are as deep as words, as beautiful as storms.

The omega- Louis- offers him a small smile before Andrew speaks up again, apparently trying to whisper. "I'm asking him on date, daddy!"

That pulls Harry out of his zone pretty quick. But Louis's laugh tells him it's all his son's doing and thankfully Louis is not a pedophile or something.

Moon no, he's too painfully pretty to be a bad human. The omega glows when he laughs. His inner alpha is in agreement.

Shaking his head, Harry holds his laugh back in. "I mean... While I agree with you that pretty Louis is very pretty, I'd rather you go on dates with people your age."

Pouting, he makes doe eyes at his father and then at Louis. "But Louis is prettiest."

"Your daddy is right, you know." Louis melts at the cute boy. Moon, this little alpha is giving him a baby fever. "I'm sure there's someone out there prettier than me, who will love to go out with such a handsome boy like you."

His green eyes brighten up. "Really?"

Louis moves forward with the trolley.
"Oh yeah. I mean- those curls and you've got such beautiful eyes, little lad. And you called me pretty. You're the whole package." The boy preens under the omega's attention, blushing. "Do you go to school?"

He nods enthusiastically, "I'm in KG!"

His dad urges him to move forward too- the boy is too busy making conversation. Harry is endlessly amused, watching Andy crush over this omega so hard.

He's not wrong though, the omega is beyond pretty. Dang it! His boy made his shot before Harry could!

Smiling, Louis tells his boy, "I'm sure you must have plenty of pretty classmates last year."

"Yeah, Sarah is very pretty." If that is possible, Andrew blushes harder. "She has black hair an- an' she kissed me here." He pokes his dimple, jumping up and down.

"Well look at that, why don't you ask her out on a date?"

Andrew hums in thinking, nodding at his thoughts, but then he frowns, looking up at Louis. "But her daddy is- big and scary."

The adults laugh at that. "So you've met her daddy too?" Harry asks him, smirking while Louis moves further, starting to take out the items from his basket and putting them aside for billing.

Huffing, Andrew glares at nothing in front of him. "I don't like her daddy."

"I mean, it's not his fault-"

Ignoring his father, Andrew turns to Louis. "Pretty Louis," he sings. "Is your daddy big an' scary too?"

"No, lad. I have a mama and she's very lovely."

"Is she pretty like you?" Louis laughs too loud at that. Oh, this will be a good story to tell his mama.

At that, Harry picks his son up, making him look into his eyes. "Alright, alright, maybe tone down on your flirting."

"But daddy, he's so pretty!"

Harry whispers in his ear, "leave someone for your father, will you?"

"You wanna take him for date, too?" Sighing, the alpha knocks their foreheads together gently. There's no way Louis didn't hear that. Might as well shout it from the rooftops.

"I- hey look, it's our turn." They move forward and Andrew 'helps' his father.

"Pretty Louis," he sings again.

"Yes, little darling?" Louis coos at him, handing over his card for payment.

He becomes shy all of a sudden, "can I hug you?"

Looking at his father for confirmation- to which Harry nods- Louis smiles and nods too. "We cannot block the line. How about I give you a little cuddle once you guys are done too?"

Quickly nodding, Andrew pesters his dad to go through the billing faster.
"Andrew, you need to be patient or no hugs from Louis."

Pouting, he frowns but doesn't say anything else. He knows his father never really says 'no' to him. He never even really scolds him for little things- not even when he dropped his daddy's phone in a puddle of water last week!

He patiently waits, making sure Louis is waiting for them with his bags.
"Come on." He almost runs towards the omega, hugging his legs tight.

"Oof!" Louis chuckles, putting his bags down before bending down and pulling the boy into a proper hug.

"You're the loveliest boy I've ever met, Andrew. I was having a bad day and you made it all better. Thank you, little lad."

In return, the little alpha only nuzzles into his neck before finally pulling back.
"Thank you, pretty Louis."

Smiling, Louis looks up to find the father looking at them. "You've got a great boy."

Harry smiles back, gulping down his emotions. "Thank you, it means a lot."

"Well, I should get going, but I loved meeting you." Louis gets up, smiling once again at the little alpha and starts to make his way to his car.

Andrew frowns for a second but then tries to smile. "B-bye, pretty Louis! I love you!"

That makes Louis look back and say, "I love you too, little lad!"

Shaking out of it, Harry picks his boy up, loads the groceries in his car and straps the boy to the car seat.

Moon, you make kids so innocent.
