Guys thank you so much for the comments, I never expected this much for my story and it honestly makes me feel so excited when I write the chapters. here's chapter two! (pic on the side is harry's room)
Jay's POV
Max is parking in the garage now, the noisy car filled with the voices and screams of 5 boys had gone completely silent as all the boys except Liam fell asleep. I could tell that Liam had been fighting it, not wanting to close his eyes in case anything happened to Zayn. He stared at the sleeping toddler protectively. I tried making conversation with him while the boys were asleep but all I got were either a nod or shake from his head or a shoulder shrug. He didn't say one word, poor kid must have went through alot.
I waited for Max and Siva to open the doors since I was in the back and we decided to put child locks on the van. Louis woke up and decided to walk himself in, Siva picked up a sleeping Harry, I handed a dazed Niall to max before getting out of the car myself followed by Tom, Liam had woken Zayn up and the toddler stumbled out of the van with Liam right behind him. Still being very sleepy Zayn closed his eyes and attempted to walk which almost got him running into a shelf had Tom not scooped him up.
Zayns eyes jolted open and he started screaming and wriggling in Tom's grip. "Li Li!!!!!!! AHHHH- AHAHAAAAAAA PLEASE DOWN!!!!! " he screamed crying and flailing his legs like liam had told him to if anyone picked him up besides him.
Liam snatched Zayn from Tom, squeezing the toddler to his chest. I went up to Liam and got down on one knee before telling the boy.
"Listen Li, I know alot must have happened to you but I need you to trust me when I tell you, we will never hurt any of you. I need you to tell Zayn it's okay for us to hold him" I began
Liam seemed to debate the idea for a bit but he still seemed unsure
"Li, just think about when your at school, were gonna be here to take care of zayn and niall but we can't that very well if he's scared of us, how about you give us a chance and we'll prove to you that we love all of you" I try again
He looked me in the eye and said barely above a whisper " I'm sorry if I don't trust you completely right now. I want to believe that you won't hurt us.. *sniffle* a-alot of people told me they love me at first but...*sniffle* it's always a lie and they just end up hurting me later..."
"It's okay buddy, we understand trust takes time. No need to apolagize" Max put in
Nathen and Tom took Niall and Harry inside the house. Both my husbands were in tears and I was about to any minute now but I knew thats not what Liam wanted. He didn't need sympathy, the kid just needed love and thats the least fucking thing any kid should be able to have.
Zayn looked up at his brother and frowned at the few tears that had managed to slip down Liams cheeks. He didn't really understand what was going on but said "No cwy Li." and gave a sloppy kiss to his cheek which caused liam to crack a small smile before putting zayn on the ground.
"Can I tell him tomorrow, I just wanna take care of him bymyself tonight" Liam mumbled
"ofcourse buddy and hey he's still your baby brother, you can take care of him too but you also need to take more care of yourself and see what you want Li, that's why were here to take care of all of you. You take care of zayn by yourself tonight but tomorrow night how about you let us give him a bath and tuck him in and you can read him a bed time story?". I compromise
