He's my son (One Direction)

Surgery

I had fallen asleep and awoke to hearing Harry and Zayn having a conversation.

"Can we be cool now? I'm only here for my son, not her." Zayn said, but I faintly heard him speak. I fought myself to remain still.

"We're cool, but don't forget that I'm helping raise him too. I love him like he's my own."

"He's my son Hazza, don't overstep your boundaries mate." Zayn let out a harsh breath and I stretched out.

I then realized that I'm in Harry's arms and my head is resting on his chest. his body warmth could thaw ice in seconds, wow.

"Morning love." Harry smiled and kissed my cheek, letting me catch a scent of his cologne. How can someone so angelic, look and smell like heaven?

"Good morning." My voice sounded horse and I pray I don't have nasty morning breath.

"Daniel is doing well, he should be waking up soon." Zayn's deep voice broke the short lovely moment, as usual.

"We should get some breakfast soon. I'm eating for two now." I pecked Harry on the lips on slowly got out of his lap.

"Dad?" Nathaniel's small voice echoed on the hospital rooms walls.

"Yeah, sport?" Harry answered and moved close to him.

"I had dream that you an mommy flew to space." Everyone broke out in laughter. Kids always seem to make light on dark days, lovely angels.

A knock erupted and a nurse came in.

"He's doing better this morning I see." She commented.

"Loads better." Zayn stood up and rubbed his hands on the back of his jeans.

"That's great. We have him scheduled for surgery in thirty minutes, okay?"

"Sounds good." I nodded. She smiled and checked his vital signs. Harry sat back down and held my hand. I rested my head on his shoulder and I didn't forget that Zayn was present in the room. It was hard to miss, his anger could break walls. Harry didn't like it, but he's Nathaniel's father, and he needed some emotional support too.

Another man walked into the room wearing a blue scrub outfit.

"Hello, I'm Alex, the anesthesiologist. I need you and Mr. Malik to sign this informed consent form that authorizes me to use anesthesia for mister Nathaniel."

Me and Zayn signed our names and he took a short look over it.

"Alrighty, what I have in my hands is a sedative, which is a type of medicine that will help him relax before the procedure. I'm going to administrate it right now. Once he's relaxed, I'll give him the anesthesia. Sound good?"

I nodded. He put the needle through Nathaniel's IV tube. In a few seconds he was smiling and giggling. He waited a few minutes and then put then anesthesia needle in his tube. Within a few minutes Nathaniel was out.

"We're going to take him in now. Cathy will take you to the waiting room and will update you on how he's doing. Okay?"

"Yeah." I said. Me, Harry, and Zayn went outside to the waiting room and waited. Every so often the nurse would come tell us how the procedure was going. After an hour the doctor came out and talked to me and Zayn.

"Well he did great. His appendix is out and he hasn't woken up yet. It usually takes an hour or so. His appendix actually ruptured right before surgery so he'll have to stay for three to four days. We'll give him antibiotics through a portable IV that remains in place when he leaves the hospital. A nurse comes to the home in the following days to monitor the IV and remove it. He's going to be okay. Alright?"
