Their Little

18

Narrator's POV:

"And home." Edward breaths out as him and his brother step into the warm home.

It was nearly sunrise, it took them longer than expected to finish the job and get home but thankfully they can tell by the silence of the home they can tell that everyone is still asleep.

"How do you think it went with Maverick and Lou? Hopefully he wasn't too upset that we weren't here to put him down." Harry wonders as he strips his bloodied coat off, immediately throwing it in the washing room before just putting a simple jumper on in replacement, his brother did the same.

"Mav said he stayed pretty quiet after we left but they had some fun making cookies and he went down pretty easily, didn't give him a hard time at all." Edward says, reminding his brother of the updates that Maverick gave them throughout the night.

"He has never given anyone a hard time but Yeah Yeah you're right. Whatever, we are home now and I want to go see him so let's go." Harry says.

Edward nods in agreement and they both head up the stairs after making sure that they were fully clean and that there was no indication that they nearly just killed a man. They didn't want to scare Louis like that.

Confusion bubbles in their mind when they find the crib empty when they enter the nursery.

"Maybe he is in Maverick's room." Edward shrugs.

"Yeah probably." Harry says as he runs his fingers over the edge of the painted flowers on crib.

They head down the hall to the room that Maverick tends to stay in on the nights he sleeps at the twin's place. They knock on the door gently before opening it to see that Maverick was out like a light but Louis was no where to he seen.

"Maverick? Where's Louis?" Edward says worriedly, shaking the man awake.

Maverick groans before opening his eyes, focusing in on the Harry and Edward.

"Oh, you guys are home. How did it go?" The man asks, not having heard the their previous question.

"Maverick where is Louis?" Ed repeats for him.

Maverick furrows in confusion.

"He's in the nursery, what do you mean?" Maverick asks.

"Uh no he's not." Harry says his voice serious.

"What!" Maverick says, shooting out of bed.

"We already checked in the nursery and he wasn't there. You're sure thats where you put him down, because I don't think he could of gotten out of the crib on his own." Edward says to the man.

"Yes yes I'm sure, he was out like a light. I haven't heard a fuss all night. Oh god." Maverick says starting to freak out, terrified at the idea of Louis being lost under his watch.

"Well maybe he woke up and got out somehow. No one else could have gotten in here and done anything, we have security. He has to be somewhere around here." Harry says, trying his best to stay calm.

Maverick nods frantically, agreeing.

They all disperse around the house, all in search of the tiny boy.

A loud sigh of relief erupts from the three men when they run into the twins room and find the little one fast asleep.

"Oh thank god." They says, hands on hearts.

The twins walk over to him and gently sit down right beside him, being careful to keep him asleep. Harry kisses his forehead as Ed pets through his hair, both of them feeling incredibly relived to be back in his presence.
