Parachute | Harry Styles Short Story

Best Dad!

BSL - italics. English&BSL - normal.

Harry carefully adjusts on the couch when he feels the smaller body quickly tighten her chubby arms around him.

She refuses to let go and he can feel her small self randomly shake against his chest.

Sweet and stubborn Dawn is refusing to let go of her Papa, and is possibly ruining her mother's plan of a couple's date night.

On the other hand, her twin brother Dylan knocked himself out after his amazing dinner and he didn't waste any time falling asleep in his mother's arms.

Over the past months, he has gotten way more verbal and chatty than they expected. Plus, the audiologist has pointed out that his hearing has improved and it makes a case for why he's more interactive.

It's good news for the family but Dylan still requires his hearing aids till a certain age where it's his choice to keep it or let it go.

Sometimes Harry jokes about being the odd one out in the family if everyone is going to be largely hearing but nothing can strip away the unity of this beautiful family.

As Harry tenderly presses Dawn's curls down, he feels her kick and she brings her chubby hands to basically grab his face. He shakes his head at how dramatic their daughter truly is and looks at those big emotional eyes waiting for him.

Harry immediately smiles as he stares at his child and he presses a soft kiss on her forehead.

"You need to sleep baby," he tells her, gently signing.

"No Papa," she pouts and shakes her head in defiance.

To make things funnier, she yawns right after her protest and Harry cannot believe how stubborn she truly is.

Dawn looks away and he slowly taps her to get her attention.

"Why not?" he asks, actually curious.

"I want to go out with you and mama," she says and roughly signs.

This makes him smile because he realises that his babies are growing and he just never imagined this being his reality.

Her reply makes him nod in understanding and he thinks of the right way to pacify his little princess.

"We can go out tomorrow," he replies.

Dawn frowns as she tries to understand the sign and she yawns again, deeply fighting the urge to give in to sleep.

"Out tomorrow?" she asks and he quickly nods.

Well, that sounds fair.

Dawn returns to resting her head on her father's chest and Blue calmly walks out to join them.

Harry slowly looks up to see his partner looking beautiful and subtly dressed up for their night out. He's also dressed up but he has been placed on cuddling duty right after bathtime.

Blue is checking her makeup out with her phone camera and she pauses when she sees the sight before her.

It's absolutely cute but this little woman who happens to be her father's twin has held the man hostage.

Harry will do anything for the twins and they just know that. Dylan might be her own twin in looks but the boy knows how to take advantage of his father's extremely soft heart.

Everyone has given up and accepted that Dawn owns Harry because that's how powerful the little charmer is.

Blue slowly rolls her eyes and walks over to stand before Harry, staring at the little girl holding him like he's her personal trophy.
