Chapter Thirty: Babysitting Baby Lux

I awoke the next morning to a knock on the door. My eyes flashed open quickly as I rolled over Harry waking him up on the way and then landed safely on the ground on the other side of the bed. That was by far the weirdest way I’d EVER gotten out of bed in my life! I peered down at the gorgeous curly haired boy who lay before me with his eyes still shut rather tightly as a huge grin crossed his face, yes… I must admit I had the craziest way of doing things sometimes! Although I was still tired I was curious to see who was at the door, so I ran out of the bedroom and made my way downstairs as fast as I could. I opened the door and standing on the doorstep were two very familiar faces.

“Hey!” I said excited to see Lou and Baby Lux smiling at me.

“Hey Zoe! I’ve got a few clients who need a stylist and have booked me at the last minute, ugh! It’s so frustrating! I need someone to watch Lux for the day, would you and Harry mind?” Lou (Lux’s mum) said in a sweet and pleading tone. My still half asleep eyes peered up at Harry who was now out of bed and standing at the top of the stairs and then to the clock that read 6am. HOLY SHIT! 6am? Wow, all I wanted to do right now was snuggle back up in bed, but I guess plans change!

“Um, not at all…” I said smiling back at her as Lux crawled into the house on all fours.

“Looks like she agrees with the plans!” Lou said happily smiling at her adorable little girl. “Look, I’m really sorry to drop around so early, but I really have to go or I’m going to be late! Thanks so much for this, I owe you two!” Lou said as she disappeared into the street. She got into her car waving goodbye and a few short seconds later she was gone. Shutting the door I turned around and saw that Harry had already made his way downstairs and was holding Lux in his arms.

“What do you want to do today with Uncle Harry and Aunty Zoe?” Harry asked as he held her up in the air above his face and peered up at the beautiful little girl he held in his arms. I couldn’t help but laugh at how he tried to make his voice sound childish. Obviously, Lux being an 8 month old baby didn’t respond to his questions. A huge grin was plastered across Harry’s face as he gently placed baby Lux onto one of the stair cases. She soon began to climb the stairs and Harry made his way over to the lounge which I was now rested against with my phone in my hand. I was texting Tilly to see what she was up to today. I had an idea that all five of us; Tilly, Zayn, Harry, Lux and I could spend the day at the park.

“Whatcha up to baby?” Harry asked as he wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his head on my shoulder. He peered down at my phone screen and read the plans that I had just made with Tils.

“I like that idea…” He said happily as he placed a soft kiss on the bottom of my neck.

“Shall I go pack a blanket and make some food to take?” he asked. But before I could respond he had already dashed up the stairs picking up baby Lux on the way. He placed her down on the kitchen bench in front of him and began to prepare some sandwiches and other snacks for the five of us. I followed him upstairs but instead of going to the kitchen I decided to take a quick shower and change into a flowing summer dress. As soon as I was ready I made my way out of the bedroom and into the kitchen to find harry running around downstairs in his boxers trying to find the clothes he wanted to wear.

“Babe! Do you know where my crotch less blue jeans are?” I heard him mumble from downstairs.

“Er, I think they’re in the-“But before I could finish he cut me off.

“Never mind! I found em!” He shouted back.

Laughing, I made my way over to the upstairs lounge where Lux was sitting peacefully.
