Always In My Heart (Sequel To Love Hurts)

Chapter 14

Zayn was woken up from his lovely dream by hands touching him. It was Harry, it had to be, they fell asleep with him on top last night. The hands on his back felt smaller than Harry's. His back? He jumped turning on his back pushing whoever was touching him away, but quickly reached out hearing a small screech and a body falling out of bed. He managed to grab them by the clothes back to bed hearing someone else rush over shouting. Father reflexes right there. He looked over at the little body shaking with giggles, "Jackson?"

"That was fun uncle Zee, do it again.." he said rolling himself out of bed, but Zayn caught him again,

"Stop it J, you'll hurt yourself" Zayn said eyes on at Liam, who looked like his heart was trying to reboot itself back to life. His hand was across his chest taking in deep breaths.

"Leeyum, you're alright?"

"One minute.." Liam sat back down on the chair, "I need a minute or I'm gonna lose my heart, I have one kidney, what could happen next, huh, have half a heart"

"Stop being dramatic, you'll be fine you just in shock. Your kidney grew back so stop selling that fake news, huh. And there's no such a thing as half a heart. You either dead or you're not.."

"Thanks Zayn, I can see you've been reading medical journals judging by your useful unwanted information. Leave me to die in peace"

"You're talking in full sentences there's nought wrong with you.."

"Where did you read that one? medical diaries by doctors reflecting on patients last words before death.."

"Your daddy is crazy, J. When did you get here? I thought there was a big spider on my back.." Jackson jumped in Zayn's lap scared,

"Spider?"

"You are the spider...you're spiderman, you even wearing red tracksuit" Zayn tickled him and he nearly fell out of bed again, from wriggling around laughing.

"Zayn.." Liam shouted at him.

"I've got him, chill Li"

"I'm not chilli.."

"He's alive and making jokes" Zayn faked a gasp, rolling Jackson near the edge and back again, with him giggling while Liam groaned.

"Stop that Zayn, you will never let me do that with the twins.."

"Of course not, you're crazy. There's two of them, which one will you save first?"

"For real, stop that. Or he'll be doing that at home, stop. Stop.." Zayn laughed when Liam took Jackson off the bed.

"Whatever, I need to brush my teeth and have a shower. What time is it?"

"There's a clock right there on the wall, look it up.." Liam replied grumpily,

"Okay grumpy old man, what time is it J can't see that far without glasses"

"Since when do you wear glasses?" Liam asked.

"Since I look hot in them now shush, I'm teaching your son how to tell time"

"He already knows how to tell time, you're late"

"That's because I taught him, I accept your thanks in advance. Now J, what's the time"

"It is..nine..six, no thirty. Nine thirty, uncle Zee"

"Yes, high five. It is half past nine"

"You're not a good teacher, he said six first.."

"That's because someone told him not to bother practising as he already knows the time, isn't it?" Zayn said getting a toiletry bag and day clothes from Harry's holdall bag. "Where's Harry?"
