As the 5 boys headed upstairs to do as they were told. Zayn turned to Ashton, Michael and Harry. "Living room now" he instructed.
With their heads hung down they followed Daddy into the Living room with Zayn right behind them.
"Ashton, would you please explain to your father and I what was going on this morning here in the living room?"
"Well"....Ashton cleared his throat. "Nial, Luke, Calum and I got up early and were watching cartoons. Calum and Nial let Luke pick so we were watching his favorite Paw Patrol. When twiddle dumb and dumber came downstairs." Ashton said, gesturing towards Michael and Harry.
Both boys openly scoffed at the insult. Michael started to say something when Liam cut him off.
"We do not call each other rude names young man" Daddy scolded Ashton.
Zayn spoke low and firmly "Son, would you like me to pass on hearing your side of the story and just dish out whatever punishment I desire right now?"
Ashton gulped and shook his head no. "No Sir" he whispered "Sorry" he muttered under his breath.
Zayn nodded for Ashton to continue. "I had gone into the kitchen right before they came down. I was fixing Luke a bottle because I know he didn't eat much last night and I wanted to give him something before breakfast." he explained to his fathers.
"Mikey and Harry didn't like what was on and instead of asking if we could watch something else Harry grabbed the remote and changed the channel. Luke got really upset and Nial yelled at Harry to put it back on."
Ashton went on to explain that Harry and Michael both started complaining it was a baby show and started picking on Luke.
"Mikey told Luke he was the biggest baby he ever saw and Nial and Calum jumped into Mikey's face and told him to stop bullying Luke." Ashton said with some pride in his voice at his little brothers standing up to bullying.
Zayn narrowed his eyes at Harry and Michael, fully disapproving of their behavior. Zayn nodded at Ashton to continue.
"Harry and Mikey laughed at the boys. Mikey told Nial that he needed to go put on a pull up like Luke since everyone calls them the twins he needs to be a baby like Luke."
It was clear Michael and Harry were realizing how bad their behavior was that morning because both boys started to cry as Ashton continued with the details of the early morning incident.
"Harry picked up Luke's dummy off the coffee table and started waving it in Calum's face telling him. Here's your dummy, you stupid baby, open up. Harry then said pull ups were a waste of time since Luke clearly kept messing in them. Mikey piped in that nappies would be better for both Luke and Nial."
Ashton told his parent's both Luke and Nial were crying when he returned to the room and Calum was getting ready to punch Michael. He had asked what happened so Calum told him. Mikey got mad at him for telling on him and Harry so he started attacking Calum verbally again.
Michael had told Calum he was as much a baby as Nial and Luke and he was going to tell the whole football (soccer for us Americans) team that he slept in a pull up and sucked on a dummy.
Ashton took a deep breath, "That's when I yelled at Michael and Harry to shut up and for them to both get in a corner while I went to wake you guys up"
The fathers learned that Josh had come downstairs while Michael and Harry were arguing with Ashton,and when Mikey tried to walk away but Ashton grabbed his arm. Michael yanked it away so fast that was how he ended up slapping Luke across the face.
