"Oh for God's sake, August! Mum!"

Nope not tonight not ever. I am not doing this again.

I stood up, Harry was fast asleep as it was almost ten thirty.

I opened the door and found Indie about to knock on my door.

"What the hell, Indiana, it's ten thirty, your father will go livid if he's woken up after his day, can't you have some respect!"

I shut the door behind me, staring at a guilty five year old and an angry ten year old.

"August came into my room again!" She whisper yelled.

August was supposed to be asleep three hours ago. This was the fifth time he'd come out of his room tonight.

Harry crashed the Range Rover today.

He was so upset because it hit us right where I sit and August. He was so mad. I gave him some chamomile tea to calm him down and he went to sleep since he had a big day tomorrow.

We were announcing to the world, Gabriel.

Gabriel was a thriteen year old extremely smart little boy with no family. He was coming home tomorrow.

We have his room set up and a computer and phone. It's all he's always wanted after a family.

He was such a sweet boy it hurt to see him in pain.

He couldn't speak english well. He was from Germany, but I guess a couple of months in he'll do great. They also mentioned he was taking English lessons to help.

He had long blond hair, like Harry had. He cut it recently and I'm not sure if I like it. He spent ten years with that haircut and I got used to it.

Indie had a long day too, August is the annoying sibling. We all have one, the one that teases you until you want to slam them against the wall.

But my August took things a different level. He knew Indie had a soft spot for him and would basically do anything for him, but if you went in her room when she was reading, forget it, you will probably get yelled at.

August looked at Indie with shiny watery eyes, "Sorry Indie."

She sighed, "That's Okay, but can you go night night now?"

He pouted, "I wanna watch Harry Potter with you."

"You can watch it on the car tomorrow bubba." Indie hummed, "Now go to sleep so we can meet our brother."

He pouted so I but in, "Come on, Teddy. Bed." I picked him up like the spoiling mother always does. Teddy is his nickname that Anne and Gemma gave him, "Good night, my love. Don't start walking around, daddy had a bad day today and he's sad, so he needs his sleep, and you do too, to grow bug and strong like him. I love you."

"I love you ,too, mummy."

I smiled and kissed his cheek, heading over to Indie's room.

"Come on Indie, you know the rules, babe." I picked up the remote and her book from her bedside table, "It's the third time this week, you have eight strikes and it's no Telly or Books for a week."

"But mum, most parents would be happy their kids are reading."

"Well, I'm not like most parents then."

I truly wasn't, just the fact that I got pregnant at eighteen and with Harry Styles's baby made me a whole different parent. And since both my kids were premature I spoiled them a little.

"Go to sleep now honey, I love you."

"Love you too mummy."

I finally went back to bed, but I could hear the shower so my guess was, Harry had woken up.

He came back a minute later with a towel hung on his hips, "Hi Baby."

"Hey." I whispered, "You okay?"

"Good. Better. My neck hurts from the hit but overall I'm okay. The kids in bed yet?"

"Should've been like, two hours ago, but you know August and Indie."

He shrugged, "Did you feed Jean?"

The dog was sat on the floor with a smile, if dogs could smile.

"Come here girl." She climbed up on the bottom of the bed as Harry climbed in and cuddled me up.

"I love you." He told me.

"I love you, too."

We sighed in content, but not for long.

"Muuuuuuum!"


I'm Baaaaaack.
