Niall's secret child

52

* Charlie's POV *

I groan and roll out of bed once my alarm rang out. It was Monday which meant I had work today and Atticus had daycare. I still have a few more weeks until I can get off work since I'm pregnant so I'll have to put up with it for now. I look over to the other side of the bed to see Niall was still sound asleep. Lucky bastard.

I walk into our wardrobe quietly and grab out my work clothes before walking into the bathroom where I got ready for the day by having a shower and doing everything else before getting dressed in my work clothes before walking out to wake up Atticus. I walk down the hall to his bedroom where I push the door open and walk inside to see he was still asleep cuddled up in his blankets. I smile down at him before shaking him awake softly.

Atty groans and rolls away from me, putting his thumb in his mouth trying to go back to sleep. "C'mon baby" He groans and rolls back over to look up at me with his eyes fluttering open. I smile down at him before leaning in to lift him out. "Morning baby" I say as i kiss his head "morning mumma" Attics mumbles into my neck. I carry him around the room collecting his day care clothes before carrying him to the bathroom. I place Atticus down on the closed toilet seat before filling the tub up with warm water. While it was filling up I help Atticus take off his clothes and toss them to the side before I place him in the water.

I turn the water off since it was full enough before I began cleaning Atticus as he babbled tiredly to himself. Ten minuets later he was all clean so I pull the plug and lift him out of the tub, dried and dressed him before taking him downstairs to the kitchen where I gave him some yogurt and fruit to eat before making myself some toast. Once my food was cooked I sat down at the counter and ate my food next to my boy silently.

Atticus has never really been a morning person so I didn't expect him to want to talk about every thing at this time of the day. We soon finished our food and it was just about time to leave so I cleaned everything up before taking Atty to the door where we both put our shoes and coats on before leaving the house. I lift Atticus into his car seat and buckled him in before climbing into the front and proceeded to drive to the day care.

Taylor had texted me last night saying the twins wouldn't be in today and probably for the rest of the week because Connor had caught the flu and gave it to his twin as well so they were staying home. "Ready for school baby?" I question Atty as I drove "No" He grumpily replied in the back seat making me sigh. I was in the same mood as him. I just wanted to go back home and sleep.

After dropping Atticus off at daycare I head to work, every second of the drive I was trying not to turn the car around and head home, but I finally reach the diner and park the car before walking inside. "Hey Charlie" I smile and greet my co-workers before getting to work. The diner was pretty busy which sucks because I just want to sit down and rest.

"Atticus, your mum's here" Atty looks up from the toys he was playing with before running over to me. "Mumma" Atty sobbed once he had reached me. I raise my eyebrows in confusion as I lift him up into my arms. Just a second ago he was playing with his friends with a smile on his face and now he's crying his eyes out. "He's been asking for you all day" Morgan, one of the workers informed me as she walked over and rubbed Atty's back as he cried into my shoulder.

"Aww baby" I say softly as I place a kiss on his head "I'll see you Wednesday" Morgan said with a smile on her face. "See you there" I say as I wave before walking out, I had already signed Atty out so no need to do that. "Mummy's here baby" I whisper to my crying son. Atticus let out a hiccup as he held onto me tighter. I rub his back as I carry him over to the car and buckle him into the back seat. "I'm not leaving baby, i promise" I tell Atty when he tried to get back at me. He settled down a little bit and let me buckle him in and close the door. I climb into the drivers seat and drive us home.

I soon park the car in the driveway and get out. Niall's car wasn't here which meant he was out doing something famous-y. I pull the back door open and unbuckle Atty before lifting him out of the car and placed him on my hip. I close the door and lock the car before walking up to the front door. I unlock it and push the door open before letting Atticus down on the ground.

I help him take his shoes and coat off before leading him upstairs where I undress him and get him dressed in some comfy home clothes before leaving him there to play with his toys while I go into my bedroom where I had a quick shower and got changed into some sweatpants and an oversized shirt. I make my way out of my bedroom with caution because Atticus was being quiet. A two year old who is quiet means something is wrong.

The stair gate was still latched which meant he hadn't gone down which is good. I make my way to his bedroom and peak inside to see that Atticus definitely wasn't in trouble, my baby had just fallen asleep. I smile and walk over to his small body that was laying on the floor in the middle of his room. I carefully lift him off the hard wood floor and place him down in his crib.

I cover him with his blanket, place a kiss on his head before walking out of the bedroom, leaving the door open just a little bit before walking downstairs because I had hunger pains right now. I look through the fridge before pulling out the peanut butter and celery sticks. I smile down at the two products before walking to the living room where I set the TV up on a good program before taking a seat on the couch making sure I was comfy before I began digging into the peanut butter and celery sticks. What a beautiful combination.
