Living with 5SOS

24

I wake up sobbing after a nightmare. I shift my lower half and my eyes snap open as I feel a warm wetness. I cry harder, trying to stay quiet. I get up and cover the spot with the blanket. "Daddy?" I mumble once I stop crying. I shake him slightly and his eyes open.

"Good afternoon, babygirl."

"Umm, g-get up daddy." I mumble. He frowns.

"What's wrong baby?" He asks as he gets up.

"I um, can you go away for a few minutes?"

"Why baby? What's wrong?" Tears fill my eyes again and I start crying.

"I'm sowwy! I didn mean to!"

"Shh, sh, what's wrong, babygirl?" He asks as he reaches out for me. I remain on the other side of the bed, covering my lower half.

"It was cuzza da nightmawe! I'm sowwy!" His eyes suddenly widen and he grabs one of my arms, checking my wrist, sighing in relief when he doesn't see any cuts.

"What'd you do, my poor little girl?"

"Iwtdabd." I mumble.

"Hmm?" He asks. He reaches for me to pull me into his lap but I push his hands away as I cry.

"I accidentally wet da bed! I'm so sowwy! I no mean it! I no mean to! No mad! No mad daddy!"

"Oh baby girl, I'm not mad. Come here, we'll get you in the bath and wash your clothes and I'll change the sheets. It'll be ok." He reassures. He gets out of bed and picks me up, taking me into the bathroom, where he takes off my leggings and sweatshirt. He runs the bath and puts in bubbles, and once it's full, he comes back over to me and, after receiving a nod from me, he takes off my panties and bra and puts me in the bath. He goes back into the bedroom and changes the sheets, putting them in the wash with my clothes. I wash off my entire body throughly, feeling disgusting. I can't believe I wet the bed.

"Babygirl, are you done?" Luke asks as he peaks in.

"Hmhm." I mumble, wiping at my eyes as I start crying again. Daddy helps me out of the tub and wraps me in a fluffy pink towel and carries me into my nursery, setting me on the changing table. I sigh in relief as he grabs me panties, I was worried he was gonna put me in a diaper.

"Do you think it was just cuz you had a nightmare, princess?" I nod as he slips the panties over my legs.

"Alright, babe." He mumbles. He puts me in one of his shirts and a pair of shorts before beginning to carry me downstairs.

"No, I no wanna go downstaiws."

"Why babygirl?"

"Embaswassss." I whine.

"Aw babygirl, you don't need to be embarrassed. You had a nightmare, it's not your fault. But don't worry, I won't tell." He chuckles, kissing my cheek. He takes me downstairs and sits on the couch with me on his lap.

"Aww, look how cute you are, princess!" Calum chuckles as he walks onto the room.

"Hi uncle cally." I mumble as he kisses my head.

"Are you in a better mood after your nap, sweetheart?" Ashton asks as he comes in as well.

"No, but I be good." He smiles.

"Aw, well, good." He chuckles, as he looks to Luke for explanation.

"She had a nightmare."

"Ohh, I'm sorry baby." Cally frowns, and ashy kisses my forehead.

"I wan colow." I mumble.

"Michael! Can you get the coloring books?" Daddy calls up the stairs.

"Piper!" I remember.

"And her cow, please!" Mikey comes down quickly with what daddy asked for and puts them on the ground in front of the couch. Daddy sets me down and I crawl over and grab piper, then my crayons and my Disney color book and begin coloring a picture. I don't bother trying to color in the lines, I hate coloring in the lines. It's boring.

I start humming and singing as the boys coo at me. "Colow wit me! Please." I add, to be safe.

They all sit next to me on the floor and color in the different books.

"Hey! I wanted the mermaid one!" Uncle calum frowns and pouts.

"You can have my Disney one." I smile and hand it to him. He chuckles

"Well thank you princess." He smiles as I take the hello kitty book that he didn't want.

Daddy turns on Snow White and we divide our attention between coloring and the movie.

"I'm gonna make dinner." Daddy smiles, kissing my cheek and going into the kitchen.

"I'll help." Ashy sighs.

"More toys." I mumble as I stand up and run upstairs to grab my toys. I bring them downstairs and put them on the floor amd continue playing.

"Alright, dinner time!" Daddy says as he comes into the living room.

"No! More play." I mumble.

"Little girl." Daddy warns in his daddy voice. Ashton,calum and Mikey all give me 'uh oh, better behave' type looks, and I smile innocently.

"Uh oh. Good girl." I say as I turn around, dropping my toys and reaching up behind me so daddy can pick me up.

"That's right. Good girl." He smiles as he kisses my cheek and takes me to the dining room. He sits me down with all the boys and we all eat the spaghetti and garlic bread happily. When we finish, daddy looks at me and chuckles. He grabs a napkin and wipes off my face, before picking me up and carrying me upstairs.

"Let's get you ready for bed, little one."

"Bed time?" I ask.

"Soon."

"Aw, but no sweepy! More uncles please?" I ask nicely.

"No babygirl, you'll be sleepy soon. Bed times at 10, you know that. It's almost time." He reminds as he takes off the shorts, leaving his t shirt on me.

"Fine." I pout, and after he changes and we get settled in bed, we go to sleep.
