One Direction Imagines and Preferences

Your child has a nightmare

Louis:

Louis awoke to the small shuffles of footsteps halfway through the night. Curiously, he slipped out the bedroom, and found himself bumping straight into his three year old son.

"Keith!" He exclaimed, picking up the little boy.

"You’re supposed to be in bed buddy" He chuckled. Keith looked at Louis, his azure eyes red and puffy.

"What happened?" Louis asked his son, concern filling his voice.

"Nightmare." The three year old answered shortly. 

It took Lou a while to figure out what the cause of this nightmare was, until it clicked,

"You were watching Leo play call of duty weren’t you?!" He whispered. Keith buried his little face into his father’s chest and Louis sighed, 

"I told you not to" He chuckled. Keith sniffled, rubbing at his sore eyes,

"Tired" He mumbled.

"I can tell, come on son, let’s get you back to bed" He carried his child back into the shared bedroom of the two boys, tucking him up under the aqua covers.

"Now, go to sleep, and if you have anymore silly nightmares, remember that no one is out to get you, and it’s just a dream- okay?"

The little boy nodded, his eyes drooping closed. Louis smiled, kissing the cheek of his youngest son. Keith quickly wiped at his cheek, causing a laugh to escape Lou’s lips.

"Cheeky" He whispered, before leaving the room.

Zayn:

"MUM! DAD! HELP!" The screams of your ten year old son, could even be heard from your room. Zayn sighed, and quickly bolted out your shared bedroom. He peeked inside Zack’s room, to see him asleep, but tossing around frantically. 

Zayn hastily awoke your son, and his eyes snapped open,

"Dad!" He breathed. Your husband held him close, gently rubbing his shoulder.

"What happened, little man?" He asked, after some time.

"Just a stupid nightmare" Zack whispered.

"Want to talk about it?" Zayn question. Zack shook his head, putting on what you called his ‘brave face’

"Nah, I’m okay, it wasn’t real anyway" He insisted. His father looked at him skeptically,

"Okay, if you’re sure, but remember just because you think you’re ‘big’ now, it doesn’t mean you don’t get scared. I mean, look at mum, she still scared of a lot of things, and she’s nearly thirty!" The two boys chuckled in the darkness,

"Yeah, but mum’s a girl" Zack smirked.

"Either way, it’s okay to be scared sometimes" Zack nodded, before Zayn tucked him into bed.

"If you need anything, just shout yeah?" He called out before leaving the room,

"Okay, um… Dad?"

"Yeah?"

Zack shifted around nervously before asking his question,

"Could I sleep with you and mum tonight?" Zayn smiled,

"Sure, son"

And with that, your two favorite boys hopped into your bed, and the three of you continued to sleep soundly until morning.

Niall:

"You’re going to die Kathleen. You are going to die!!" 

"We killed them, we’re gonna kill you too!!"
