I got changed in mine and Nialls en suite bathroom, I wore some pyjamas shorts and one of my old t shirts. I'd usually wear one of Nialls t shorts since there bigger and comfier but we've not long since had a fight so that's not happening.

I could hear my 3 year olds sons little giggles.
Niall was probably tickling him or something.

I entered the room and put the clothes I wore today in the wash basket that we have and then I climbed into my side of the bed and Niall was on his side of the bed with our little boy, Luke.
Usually we don't have sides of the bed as we'd normally be in the middle and cuddle as we slept but that's definitely not happening tonight.

I picked up my book and began to read from where I left of.
"Mummy isn't daddy very funny!" Luke giggled.
"He's very funny" I mumbled slightly sarcastic.

"We better get you in bed Lukey" Niall said.
"Goodnight Mummy! I love you!" He said.
"Goodnight Luke, I love you too, sweet dreams" I said smiling and I kissed his cheek.
Niall scooped him up, carrying him to his room which is next to ours.

Niall came back and switched the light off as I put my book down. He went back to his side of the bed climbing under the covers.
"Goodnight" He said.
"Goodnight" I mumbled.
"I love you" he mumbled thinking I didn't hear it.

I fell into a deep sleep the fight replaying in my head, I don't even know what started it.

I woke up and I was freezing. I checked the time, 3:02am.
Niall has took all the covers.
I'd never have this problem when we cuddle because of how close together we would be.

I sighed and tried to take them back but Nialls grip on them was strong despite him being asleep. I knew he was asleep because soft snores were escaping his slightly parted lips.

He shifted in his sleep and sat up.
"What are you doing?" He said, his voice deep as he had just woken up.
"I'm cold and you've taken all the cover" I mumbled.

"C'mere" He said as he lies down again and had his arm outstretched to me.
"Niall-" I started but he interrupted.
"Forget about the stupid fight, it doesn't matter, just come on" He said.

I climbed towards him, resting my head on his chest as he wrapped his arm around me. One of my hands were placed on his chest and the other was on his shoulder .
He pulled the covers over us both.

"I'm sorry about the fight" he whispered as our son was sleeping in the next room. He was a deep sleeper but we still didn't want to take any chances.

"I'm sorry too" I said.
He leaned down slightly and kissed me.
"I love you" he said once we parted.
"I love you too" I replied and kissed him again before we both fell into a peaceful sleep.
