Niall's secret child

62

It's been about an hour since Niall got home to see  that my little brother has joined us and we have just been discussing things such as should we put him into school or for him to get a job and making rules such as no smoking or drinking near the kids. That was pretty much the first and only rule except for no parties at the house unless allowed to. Jason had left half an hour ago telling us that he needed to get ready for a date which we made fun of him for. 

I let out a groan when I hear crying coming from upstairs. Just from the sound I knew it was Atticus so i excused myself from the conversation before making my way upstairs to the master bedroom where I had left Atticus to find that he wasn't laying on the bed anymore but I could still hear the crying. I make my way over to the other side of the bed and I can now tell why Atticus was crying. He had fallen out of the bed.

"Shh baby" I coo as I lift his small frame off the ground and hugged him to my chest. "Mumma" Atticus cries as he digs his head into my chest. "Shh babe, mumma's here" i coo as I rock back and forth. A few minuets later his cries died down, but he left his head on my chest while he sucked on his thumb. I place a kiss on his head before carrying him downstairs. He's never met Luke so this will be interesting.

I mean he's seen photographs of his uncle but has never physically met him or spoke to him. Once we got to the bottom of the stairs I could hear Niall and Luke talking about soccer, I think. "You're okay baby" I whisper to Atticus as he let out a hiccup. Niall and Luke look up as I enter the kitchen with the three year old and I watch as Luke's eyes widen.

"He's so big, oh my god" Luke mutters to himself as he looks at his nephew with amazement in his eyes. I smile and walk over to him. "Atty baby" I say softly as I reach Luke. "Do you know who this is?" I question him, he looks up from my chest and at Luke. He mumbles some random baby words before looking back up at me with his finger in his mouth and drool dripping from his mouth, finger and chin.

"That Lukey?" Atticus whispers into my ear before glancing at his uncle unsure. "Why don't you ask him?" I whisper back to him with a small smile. Atticus shyly hides his head in my neck and shakes his head. "C'mon bub" I chuckle as I rub his back, after a few more moments of persuading Atticus looks back at his uncle. "You Lukey?" Atticus questions softly. "yeah buddy I am" Luke tells the youngster who giggles and turns back to me before hiding his face in my neck again, putting slobber on my neck, making me internally cringe. 

"Want to hold him?" I question Luke who looks up at me with wide eyes. "He's three Luke, you won't hurt him while sitting him on your lap" Niall said from across the counter with a laugh. I chuckle and detach my little man from my body and pass him over to Luke. Atticus wiggles a little bit in Luke's arms which resulted in Luke to quickly wrap his arms around the toddlers waist so he wouldn't fall off his lap.

Atticus finally got comfortable leaning against Luke's chest and continued to suck on his finger putting slobber everywhere making me chuckle. I walk over to the fridge and search through it before grabbing out a bottle of water. I shut the fridge door before opening the bottled water and take a drink. "me" Atticus exclaims as he reaches out for the bottled water. I pass the water to Luke and he assisted the toddler in drinking some with only minimum spillage. 

*Luke's POV*

I adjust little Toby as she made a sound in her sleep and I was a little worried that she'd wake up. Like what the fuck would I do if she woke up? She's not a toddler where you can tell her to shut up and she will. Toby smiled in her sleep and I nearly fainted at her adorableness. I grab my phone from the couch beside me and go onto the Snapchat app. I take a quick video of Toby as she smiled in her sleep before putting in the caption 'already in love' before uploading it.

Not to brag or anything but I have a fair few Snapchat followers along with Instagram followers. Not to sure as to why though. "She still asleep?" Charlie questions as she walks into the living room with Atticus in just a diaper with his hair still wet from the bath he was just given. "Yeah" I reply before looking back down at my baby niece. "Can you watch him?" Charlie questions as she walks over with Atticus who was now drinking from a bottle.

I nod so she places Atticus down on the couch beside me and he got comfortable with him leaning against me while looking at his little sister. The three of us stay in that position for a while longer before Charlie came back and took the baby from my arms so she could go bath her because she claimed that she'd be awake soon, and not even five minuets later I could hear the baby cry from upstairs. Thank god Charlie took her before she started crying while with me.

"Hey buddy" I say as I look down at Atticus who looks up at me before giggling. "What are you giggling at huh?" I ask as I reach down and go to tickle him but stop my hand just before his skin. Atticus lets out a squeal and drop his bottle which resulted in it falling to the floor. Atticus settled down a little bit but that's when I attacked. Atticus screamed and tried to get away from me while I laugh and pull him back into my arms and continued to tickle him.
