Baby "Jayn"

"Leeyum'sh got a beawd"

Chapter 61
{Louis}

Zayn stumbled down the stairs, yawning. Ziam was tucked under his arm as he walked forward and climbed up on the couch. "Mowning Loueh."

"Morning, Zayn." Louis smiled at him, averting his attention from the tv.

Zayn rubbed his eyes, his hair disheveled and one pajama leg having moved up to his knee. He leaned on Louis and stared at the tv. The Office was on rerun and Louis decided to change it. He put on Disney Channel and Zayn seemed more than delighted as Cars the movie came on.

"Hungry?" Louis asked, smiling slightly. Zayn nodded and then his eyes lit up. "Da chereal!"

Louis pushed himself off the couch. "I'll go get you some, remember to eat and then you'll get the comic!"

Zayn nodded, rubbing his eyes a final time. "Ish evewyone shleeping?"

Louis nodded. "Niall's sleeping. Liam and Harry went to pick Anne and Gemma up."
Zayn scrunched his nose, probably trying to remember who they were.

"Harry's sister and mum," Louis explained.

Zayn's eyes widened and pushed his cheeks together, his lips puckering up. "But she pinches Jayn'sh cheeksh!"

Louis chuckled. "If she does that, just come to me."

Telling Zayn he'd be back in a minute, he walked into the kitchen. He'd eaten a bowl of mixed cereals himself, and he'd even opened Zayn's pack. Louis picked up the green comic book and hid it behind his back, grabbing the bowl he'd poured the cereal and milk in. He walked into the living room and Zayn was so focused on the movie that he didn't even notice Louis placing the bowl on the table. Louis pulled the comic book from behind his back and waved it in front of Zayn's face. "Look what I got here!"

Zayn's eyes snapped back and he grinned widely. He jumped down from the sofa to go grab it, but Louis held it above his head. "Nope, eat your cereal first."

Zayn puckered his lips into a pout. "But Jayn wanna shee inshide."

"But Louis wants Zayn to eat first." Louis grinned.

Zayn huffed. "Owkay."

He grabbed the spoon and began to slowly eat. Five minutes later, the bowl was empty and Zayn had milk above his upper lip. "Loueh, give it!" He jumped up and down excitedly and Louis laughed, giving him the comic book. Zayn flipped through the pages, eyes lighting up. "It'sh wondew woman and Shupewman!"

His brows them furrowed. "Vewy many witing."

"What did I say?" Louis singsonged. Zayn shrugged. "But itsh niche and dish ish yum." He pointed to the cereal bowl. A small burp escaped his lips and Zayn's cheeks turned pink. "Oh," he mumbled quietly.

Louis laughed, lifting him up and giving him a kiss to the cheek. "You're adorable you know that?"

The corner of Zayn's lips turned upwards into a shy little smile.

"That means that you're cute," Louis grinned slyly.

Zayn crossed his arms. "Am not cute."

"Yes you are. Now, let's get you ready."

Louis took a step back and looked at Zayn closely. He'd put on some jeans and a plain black shirt, leaving his hair tousled as it was. Louis didn't know what it was but he loved changing Zayn, it was like he was his own personal baby model. Exocet for the socks. Zayn wore those himself to prove ('Am a big boy, Loueh') how he'd grown. Louis crossed his arms as his eyes landed on the toddler's feet. "Big boy, huh?"
The socks were on the wrong foot and Louis pulled them off before putting them on correctly again. Zayn then followed him to the bathroom where Louis brushed the child's teeth.
