Niall's secret child

53

"Atty babe" I call out to the young boy who was playing in the backyard with Buddy, his puppy. "Yeah mumma?" Atticus calls out as he turns to look at me. I've been watching him from the kitchen window while doing the dishes and cleaning around the kitchen. "Can you come in side please" Atty nods and starts making his way inside. I finish cleaning the sink while I wait for him.

The back door slammed shut and Atty made an appearance with mud all over him. "Shoes off" I tell him, he huffs and stays standing on the door mat as he takes off his wellies. It had been raining all night so the backyard was pretty wet and muddy. "good job" I appraise him as I grab a face cloth and wet it a little bit before walking over to Atticus.

I kneel down in front of him and wipe his face clean from the dirt and mud before giving him a kiss on the cheek making him giggle and swat me away gently. I chuckle and begin smothering his face face in kisses. "Mumma" Atticus squealed while he laughed his little head off. "Alright I'm done" I say as I move my face away from his letting Atty catch his breath back.

"Mumma I hungry" Atticus tells me after a few moments "That's why I called you inside, it's lunch time" Atty lets out a giggle as i lift him up and place him in his high chair where I had already placed a cut up sandwich, fruit and a bottle filled with juice down on the table that was joined to the high chair.

"What do you say?" I question the young boy who went to dig into his food "thank you mumma" Atticus exclaimed happily before he placed a kiss on my cheek before digging into his food. "You're welcome baby" I say softly as i ruffle his hair before walking away so he could enjoy his food. I walk over to the fridge and browser through it before shutting the door again because I couldn't find anything worth eating at the moment.

"Arms up Atty" I tell the child who was busy playing with toys that were in the changing room of this kids clothing store. Atticus lets out a groan before standing up and put his arms in the air. I reach down and pull his t-shirt off before replacing it with a new one to see if it would fit him. While we were in here I tried some more clothes on him before we walk back out. I had only grabbed a few things off the racks to get a rough estimate on Atty's size so I don't need to get him dressed in all the clothes.

"Back in the stroller Atty" I say as we walk over to the stroller that was off to the side, I help him get into the seat before I buckle him in and continue browsing through the store as I pushed the stroller in front of me. I know I've been doing online shopping but I thought I'd come out anyways to have a look in person and by some things while I'm at it. I've already picked out a few baby onesies that I fell in love with and now I'm just looking for more clothes for Atticus.

I soon have enough of looking through this store so I walk up to the counter and place all the items on the counter, the worker behind the counter gave me a smile and began scanning the clothing items. Once everything was scanned and placed in bags I scanned Niall's credit card to pay. Once the payment was excepted I take the bags and put them in the under catchment of the stroller along with on the handles. "Have a good day" The worker said, I return it before pushing the stroller out of the store. "Mumma" Atty begins whining.

I pull the stroller to the edge of the walkway in front of the shop we just came out of before walking around to the front of the stroller and knelt down before Atticus. "yeah baby?" I question softly as I reach up and brush his hair away from his eyes. "my tummy hurts mumma" Atticus whines as tears began to built in his eyes. "your tummy?" I question as I place my hand on his tummy. "yeah mumma" Atticus tells me as he tries to get out of his stroller.

I take my hand off his stomach and to the belt around him and unbuckle him freeing him from the stroller before lifting him out. "Mummy can't do anything at the moment babe, we'll go home now okay?" Atty nods and wraps his arms around my neck as I hold him to my chest with one arm as I walk around to the other side of the stroller and began pushing it through the mall until I reach the underground car park. "shh baby, almost at the car" I coo to my baby who was sobbing into my neck.
