Our Brother is a Superhero

28

The next morning came too quickly for everyone in the house. Olivia was cursed with the worst hangover imaginable, Louis and Harry were tired due to staying up later than usual the night before, but lastly, it came far too quickly far a certain boy who was basking in the embrace of his crush. Of course, no one had to know this.

Liam, as usual, was first up the next morning and from around six am to nine it was just him and Niall, lying on the couch. Liam was spread out on one of the sofas in the main living room with Niall laid on his chest. He had already given the one year old his bottle and decided to try and get a few extra minutes of sleep in, as it had been hard work keeping his girlfriend out of trouble the night before.

One thing to note would be that Olivia was in no way irresponsible - she was the most responsible person Liam knew (excluding himself, of course). It was just that, she worked extremely hard and then rewarded herself with one night once in a blue moon where she could let her hair down and not give a damn about anything.

However, the day was slipping away from them and by ten o'clock, Liam knew that he had to get everyone up if he wanted the boys to sleep tonight, and he didn't know if he and Andy had training on this particular Saturday. Trudging up the stairs, nearly tripping over Olivia's heels that he remembers discarding at the bottom of the stairs the night before, he went back into his own bedroom first, placing a bottle of water and two headache reliever tablets on the bedside table at Olivia's side of the bed. He then tucked Niall into the double bed with the girl and gave him his dummy. The one year old lay on his back, sucking harshly while looking up at Liam with big blue eyes.

"I'll be back in a minute baby, Daddy's just got to help Hazza get up and ready." Liam whispered and kissed the baby's onesie covered belly before leaving the room. 

He creaked open the door to the Disney covered room and went over to the princess themed bed, sitting down beside his baby who was lying on his tummy. The room was extremely diverse, princess decorations on one hand mixed in with some paw patrol and spungebob ones, but all in all it reflected Harry's personality greatly.

"It's time to wake up bubba." Liam said, rubbing a hand on Harry's back, making the younger boy whine but then opened his eyes excitedly.

"Daddy! You're back!" The small boy shouted as he sat up and threw himself into Liam's waiting arms.

"Of course I am bub, I can't stay away from my boys for too long." He smiled as he kept Harry in a bone-crushing hug. "Did you have good fun with Andy last night?"

"Yeah, we watched a movie an' played games an' he even read me a story before bedtime!" Harry breathed heavily as he enthusiastically recounted the events of the night before.

"I see, would you prefer it if Andy replaced Daddy?" Liam asked with a pout.

"No Daddy!! M'missed you so much last night. Didn't know you weren't goin' to be here to say n'night." Harry mirrored the older man's pout and clutched on tightly to Liam's chest.

"I thought you knew bub, I came into say goodnight to you when I got in, but you were sleeping." He stated, and Harry nodded, seemingly happy in accepting that answer.

Liam helped Harry get out of the pull-up but decided to leave his pyjamas on right now. He then ushered the boy into his room, where Harry took the opportunity to jump on the King sized bed, being careful not to trample on Niall or Liv while Liam went to wake Zayn and Louis up.

"Wake up Liv!" Harry shouted while continuing to jump which made Niall giggle and start to bounce slightly too, although he was still sitting down.

"Harry, Liv's got a really sore head this mor-" before Olivia could finish she rushed to the toilet and expelled the contents of her stomach. She stayed in there for a while, her head resting against the toilet seat when Harry crept in with Niall crawling after him.
