Living a new life (Adopted)

chapter 3

Unfortunately, even though having a baby is hard, it is still expected that you tackle a day-job. Most members of the community worked in it, as for example Zayn, who is a 'looker' (more like 'snatcher' though none of the carers viewed it like that), however he had no little's himself. Perrie, Jade's mummy, is a nurse and worked in the little hospital.There were all types of jobs in the town of little's: officers, guards, shopkeepers....and then there is Louis, who worked at the daycare. Almost all the little's in the town knew him, therefore he is allowed a few weeks off while he had Harry, however after two weeks of no going to work he would stop getting paid.It didn't matter though: Eleanor, fellow parent and worker in the daycare promised Louis that he could bring Harry into work. He wouldn't be able to interact with the little's in toddler headspaces, as he is simply too little, but Louis could put him in one of the little bassinets in the 'newborn-6 months' rooms. He only worked three days of the week anyway, so it wasn't too bad.Whilst Harry is laid on the floor, Louis got to work on sending some e-mails. He had expected Harry to just lay in the little activity gym as he seemed reluctant to anything babyish, little did he know the little baby is quite fascinated with the little toy birds dangling above him on the mat Louis laid him on.Birds never flew over the alleyways in his old life and when he was young and rich, he saw them all the time. They chirped and flew around and Harry loved them to pieces. So, little fake ones dangling above him is bound to make him interested and a little curious.With his tiny fingers he reached up and became immensely happy when he touched one of the creatures! It may seem like a small action, but it made Harry exceedingly excited for some strange reason. Louis, hearing his baby's excited squeal, popped his head around his laptop, and grinned widely to himself when he saw that Harry was engaging with the toys.It was exactly what he wanted.Unfortunately for Louis nonetheless Harry felt his eyes on him, and not wanting the kidnapper to feel as if he was 'falling into his trap' pushed the toy bird away...then...he screamed.Louis sighed knowing that the whole ordeal couldn't and wouldn't be an easy ride for him. According to Zayn, the younger the little was the more fragile their emotions became, which would guarantee more tantrums and fits. And more tantrums meant more punishments, which Louis did not want to deal with.He'd let some of them slide the first few days though but not enough to let Harry think he could get away with certain things."What's got into you, baby? Need a nappy change already?" he cooed, crouching down next to the little gym where Harry is trying his best to sit up.The little, who is squirming on his back looked at Louis and huffed, screaming once again. "What is wrong with you huh?" You where playing happily now what changed that eh" Louis questioned as he watched his little boy try and role over, but due to the mussel relaxation medicine he couldn't move and so looked like a turtle on its back unable to get up.The state of his baby got a giggle out of Louis, in-which made Harry even more frustrated. How DARE the man laugh at him when he had caused such a thing to happen to him in the first place! "Mmm!" he whined, kicking his legs up and throwing his arms around.The young lad tried to use his arms to hoist himself up though he only exceeded for the same thing to happen as before. "Ooh no, I've got a grumpy baby on my hands" Louis pouted rubbing his baby's tummy gently. He checked his watch and noticed that Harry's morning nap would be in about thirty minutes.Ideally, he would have liked Harry to of calmly played in the activity gym whilst he sent his e-mails in this morning, but his baby is a fussy one which Louis claimed to hate, but really he just loved it. He loved the idea of having a fussy baby, as when Harry did regress he'd be completely dependent on Louis and cry whenever he wasn't around.Louis needed that. He needed to know that somebody no matter who it was, is obsessed with him just as much as he is obsessed with Harry. "Come on then. You can sit on daddy's lap while I do my work" Louis grinned as if Harry had any say in the matter.~Harry wiggles on Louis's lap as he didn't like just doing nothing, sitting on the mans lap as he looked around though noticing one thing that he hasn't yet had the time to figure out.....that when he stared at Louis's computer screen.....the words....where blurred.I mean genially blurred. Harry tried to rub at his eyes to see if that would solve it, but it didn't and that made him angry and frustrated. "You tired baby boy? You want botbot and bed huh?" Louis questioned as he saw his little rub at his eyes and whine, though Harry is trying to figure out why he can't see the words, Louis thought the boy is ready for a nap."Nhhh" Harry shook his head, wriggling around even more at the knowledge that he now could not see basic letters. Everything in the living room still looked fairly normal, not blurry at all but the letters on the screen is a total different story. In the restaurant with Zayn the lad had been able to see the letters, the young lad couldn't understand them but he could see them....Yet now, they just looked like a bunch of non-intelligent squiggles.Louis mistook his baby's constant squirming for him needing to use his nap and so set his laptop to the side, laying his baby across his lap, just like he had previously done. Putting two fingers through the nappy leg hole Louis checked if his baby boy had wet or even surprisingly messed the white garment, only to find it slightly damp. Louis sighed, it is something at least.Laying Harry down on a changing matt that he has slid at the side of his desk for moment like these.Harry whined and wiggled as much as he could get away with, though one light slap to his left thigh that caught him off guard soon shut him up and he agonizingly behaved. "See baby boy, you can behave when you want be eh? You cheeky boy" Louis blew a few raspberries on the boys stomach, the older boy not getting any reaction what so ever other than a irritated frown.Louis chuckled lowly as his baby looked cute with his little eyebrows furrowed together. "I am sorry little one, but your far too cute to scare me" Louis commented finishing off fastening Harry's vest and baby joggers. "Right, nothing like an early nap! It'll probably do my grumpy little baby some good!" Louis exclaimed cheerily picking his baby up and kissing him once on the head before taking him to their room.Harry huffed and wriggled but Louis just ignored him as he laid the boy in the cot. He retrieved a little brown teddy from his wardrobe, the toy having been saved for a long time. It had black, glossy eyes and wore a white shirt with blue dungarees, it was beyond cute and definitely fit for a little baby!Harry glared up at him as he towered over him but Louis just cooed again before setting the teddy down next to the curly haired boy. Louis then left the room, throwing his baby a final soft glance before shutting the door.~As it is winter the sky was still rather dark despite it being morning. This didn't faze Harry, though he had woken up barely an hour ago and is being expected to go back to sleep again! Maybe that is suitable for an actual baby but the one thing that Louis hasn't seemed to grasp yet is that Harry is a teenager....He didn't need morning naps!Harry couldn't fall asleep as to him that's doing exactly what Louis wanted, if anything Harry didn't want Louis to think he actually needed a nap as he didn't need one as he is a teenager and teenagers don't take morning naps!.....that's final. So with not wanting to fall asleep Harry stayed up and stared at his mobile that goes round and round playing a really annoying tune. "This isn't right, why am I here, why does this babying thing exist, this should be band from society!" Thought Harry as he lad at the bottom of his cot with his thoughts. "I didn't ask for this, I wanted to be off of the streets but not like this!" Harry ranted on inside his head having conflicted thoughts."I want to be loved by a mum and a dad that actually love me and not throw me into this weird stuff, I want out!" Harry kept repeating the words "I want out" over and over till he practically had tears falling down his red rosy cheeks.~Louis was in his study when he heard distressed cries come from the baby monitor he carried with him everywhere when he puts Harry down for naps.Whipping his glasses off the man quickly saved a draft of his email before scurrying to his bedroom, where his baby is laying on his back crying. Cooing, Louis leaned down and hoisted his baby into his arms. The sudden movement made Harry a little dizzy and he ended up completely soaking through his nappy before he had a chance to realize he needed to wee."Oh, is this why you're crying? Could you not wee-wee properly?" Louis crooned, laying his baby down on the changing table. Harry immediately began squirming, Louis just held his waist still throwing off both the babe's vest and joggers and undoing the nappy. Though Louis is glad that Harry had used it, he knew that his baby would need to go for a number two soon, which the man new for a fact Harry would be very reluctant to do.Though when Harry does go number two and when it is done, would no doubt throw the biggest tantrum known to man and poor Louis would be the one who had to deal with it.Oh, the perks of being a daddy eh?Not being able to do anything Harry just pouted at Louis, kicking his leg up every now and then, yet that action proved to tire him out rather quickly....which wasn't good at all, he shouldn't be getting tired at such a simple action! Louis and that Zayn man were no doubt the cause."All done!" Louis squeaked, blowing a raspberry on the baby's bare tummy before retrieving a baby blue Baby grow. He especially loved the Baby grow's as they just screamed 'tiny baby' to any passer-by's.Louis carried Harry back over to the baby's cot so the little lad could now have a nap, but because the whole nappy change and unable to go number one, which Harry didn't have trouble with as the boy in fact didn't want to wet the white garment have nothing to do with the reason why he was crying in the first place made Harry feel worse about the situation and the more he got babied the more he wanted to live a normal life with an actual family that loves him and treats him like any other little boy his actual age.So....Harry did the only thing he could think of and...well......screamed. Screamed and cried till his cheeks went all puffy and red, screamed till his face turned red and his veins showed...which to Louis isn't good and he NEEDED to calm his baby down now! "Hey, come on little guy. Shh now Daddy's here" Harry still cried, he hated all of this! He rather still be out on the streets....that's saying something!"Do you need a bottle huh? Come on then let's go get you a botbot" Louis cooed patting the little's padded bottom gently to try to calm the lad down while heading downstairs to the kitchen. The man kept Harry perched safely on his hip as he retrieved a bottle from the fridge, warming it up in the little machine Zayn had gifted to him. He thought about boiling the kettle as the bottle warmed, however decided against it; he'd never drink boiling hot tea with his baby boy right next to him!As they waited, Louis simply hummed a little tune to the fussy boy who continued to sob. His face is now an unnatural shade of purple, if Harry wasn't in headspace any parent would have assumed he was constipated!"Do you have windies, hmm?" Louis 'guessed' remembering the many sleepless nights he used to have at home when his sisters had wind.He rubbed Harry's back and gently massaged his tummy, even though he knew the baby is perfectly fine, well near enough anyway.When the bottle is done, Louis took a hold of it, carried both the object and Harry over to the couch in the main living room, where he got himself comfortable.He then turned his baby in his lap, so the boy's head rested in the crook of his arm so he couldn't wriggle around too much.Of course, Harry tried with all his might to fight against Louis to pull away from the bottle, however as expected all of his efforts were in sheer vain. Within a minute he is softly suckling the milk from the bottle, tears running down his cheeks as a result.And all's Louis did is coo at him. His baby is crying, but at least it wasn't as bad as before! Besides, within a few moments, Harry would be asleep.Harry tried his best to stay awake, though it is plain obvious the milk had been tampered with for his eyes were drooping alarmingly. The boy uncurled his little hand and used it to grasp onto something, anything; which just so happened to be Louis' shirt sleeve. Louis' eyes lit up, and he kissed his baby's head before the boy drifted off to sleep."Now, how about that nap?" The man murmured, standing up and taking his baby back to their bedroom. Hopefully, his baby would stay asleep now for at least a few hours while he got some things done around the house.~Louis, while his little ray of sunshine is asleep decided to finish off his emails, boil the kettle for a nice hot tea and clear up the house as when you have a little one around everywhere gets messy pretty quickly.As Louis had just finished cleaning up the living room the door had opened revealing Zayn. Louis didn't mind that the man helped himself inside his home as he gave permission for the raven haired man to do so just in case he had his little in his arms and he couldn't get to the door to answer it. "Oh, hey Z. How are you fairing?" Louis asked brushing his hair our of his eyes. "Alright I suppose. I don't have anything better to do so I thought I would stay here for a few hours before heading home myself. How is the little fella doing?" Zayn asked following his friend into the kitchen."He's a feisty and fussy thing but he's cute and I know in about a month he will be properly dependent on me. I have tried him with baby food, let's say it's something he will need to get used to....OH! he had a little play with his birds! Oh Z you should have seen it, though he stopped playing when he caught me watching him" Louis sighed though he perked up again knowing it won't be long before his little boy would actually act like a full on baby, pending his daddy for his every need.Louis and Zayn talked a little while longer before the baby monitor started making noises signalling that Harry is now awake, though by the noises his baby was making Louis could tell his baby is in distress. "I will be right back Z, I have been summoned" Zayn chuckled and shook his head while he drank his tea.~When Louis walked into his bedroom, the man peeped over the cot only to coo at the scene of his baby staring blankly at him with a little sick up of milk down the baby's chin. "Aww babes, sorry Daddy forgot to wind you didn't he? Silly daddy. Come on lets get you cleaned up" Louis laid Harry on the change table and got a wet wipe to wipe the boys face of sicked up milk.Putting his finger in one of the leg wholes, Louis then decided to change Harry's nappy. Unfastening the tapes after undressing the lad Louis got to work, though Harry immediately started squirming around when air hit his privates and announcing to him that he needed a wee quit badly if that. But.....one problem.......he didn't have a nappy on and Louis couldn't understand him when he couldn't talk properly thanks to the stupid tablets they gave him!"Are you trying to speak to daddy, little one?" Louis crooned, finding Harry's baby babbles adorable. Before he knew it, his shirt ended up getting squirted with a mound of urine and within the space of a few seconds, his shirt was drenched and stained yellow. Shrieking, the man immediately whipped his shirt off, hurriedly ducking down, just in-case Harry was going to give him any more surprise attacks.Meanwhile Harry, who is disgusted in himself started screaming. He hated Louis by all means, however weeing on him is just embarrassing. The look of disgust Louis gave him (he wasn't actually disgusted in harry - just the wee on his shirt) reminded the boy all too well of the looks people used to give him on the streets. Now even his kidnapper didn't want him all because he went wee wee somewhere he knew he shouldn't have, even though he couldn't help it."Oh, baby, no, no, no. Don't cry, sweetheart - babies do that all the time!" Louis chuckled, standing up. He quickly got to work of wiping his baby down, and getting him set in a new nappy, making sure to rub some cream on his bum to prevent rashes. Zayn had assured him that nappy rash cream wasn't a must, however Louis, being a new daddy and all is very paranoid about putting his baby in any sort of danger.His little simply sniffled, not having it in him to fight the current nappy change. He just felt so upset, having done what he just did. Though he'd never admit, Louis' little cooing at him definitely reassured him., even if he didn't give a flying donkey about the man!"I see your Baby grow is still dry as ever. Save poor daddy all the hard work, hmm?" Louis laughed, picking his baby up and holding him to his chest.Harry noted it smelt faintly of urine. "And now daddy has to have a shower. No worries, though Uncle Zayn's going to look after you. Yes, he is!" Harry furrowed his eyebrows cutely at the annoying cooing from Louis.Oh no, Harry thought wanting to roll his eyes but not having the energy to do so. Why Zayn of all people? I mean, Zayn is the only other member of the community that Harry knew...but still!As he carried Harry out, Louis picked up his discarded shirt holding it away at arm's length.Zayn was sat on the couch sipping tea and watching the television, however he perked up when he noticed Louis and the little baby. "He weed on me, so I'm just gonna hop in the shower. Little troublemaker he is! Mind watching him?" Louis explained, handing the baby off to his friend. Zayn smirked, but decided against teasing his mate, knowing that the man would nothing more than to get his shower over with quickly to get back to snuggling with his baby boy."Come to Uncle Zayn then, sweetheart. No weeing on me, though save all the hard work for daddy!" he giggled, slapping his knee when Louis flipped him the bird. Harry glared and Zayn quickly turned the babe's head into his chest. "Your daddy's very naughty, hmm, little one? How did he get stuck with such a perfect little angel?" Zayn commented loving the little one to one with the little boy he had rescued....or kidnapped in Harry's opinion."You!" Harry wanted to say, but he could only think it for Zayn had given Louis the dreaded medications to limit all of his actions. Even though it is Louis who he was stuck with, Harry felt more of a hatred towards Zayn than Louis. For, if he had never bumped into Zayn he would have never been stuck where he is now, and therefore would have never been trapped with Louis.~Harry didn't even smile at the raven haired lad, not even a look or anything which the older man grew worried about and wanted to see the gorgeous curly haired lad smile, he wanted to be the fun Uncle Z, you know like how every child has a fun Uncle he wanted to be Harry's.Harry jumped out of his wits when he felt the man move him so he was sat facing Zayn with one of his legs at each side of Zayn's, you know like how you sit a child when playing 'I went to the barbers shop' this however confused Harry as to what the man is thinking on doing, that is until the raven haired man started bouncing his knees up and down while he bounced here there and everywhere so his nappy made crinkly noises."Are you ready? I....went to the barbers shop, to get my hair cut off.....and when I got there I sat in the chair, and the chair went.......BLOP" Harry's eyes went wide when he felt Zayn's legs open wide beneath him and he went down. Even though Harry wouldn't admit it....he might of had a little accident and peed a little."Oopsie daisy" Zayn giggled, however his face immediately changed when he saw the colour of Harry's face. It was actually green. "Maybe we'll save that game for another day, then" he smiled dopily.If Harry threw up because of Zayn, Louis would kill him.The man chuckled slightly when he felt Harry's nappy squish from underneath his baby grow, but Harry did not find it funny and threw his head back as much as he could before letting out a scream."Oh no!" Zayn yelled playfully over the boy's screams, still wanting to keep his 'cool-uncle' façade up. He laid the fussy little on the couch, approaching a few cabinets to retrieve the changing supplies that Louis having of shown him time and time again where everything for his new baby was, as he was so excited.The man then strolled over to the couch, picking Harry up and lying him across his lap, face-up. He stripped the boy completely, dabbing him down with wipes before smearing cream all over the boy's bottom, having been ordered by Louis to do so if the boy ever needed changing and his daddy wasn't there.He blew many raspberries on Harry's tummy and legs, but instead of them making the boy laugh, the little simply wailed more."Come on, now, stop with all this nonsense, silly boy!" Zayn scolded playfully once the boy is in a nappy. Instead of dressing the boy in the baby grow once again, he simply laid down with the nappy clad boy on his chest, rubbing his bare back. "You and me are meant to be a team! Leave all the screaming and crying for daddy." However, Harry didn't cease his sobbing, leaving Zayn to playfully remark: "Well, seems as if I've got one cheeky little nephew on my hands. Jade and Niall have never been that cheeky to me! We'll have to keep them away from you; you're a bad influence, hmm?" Zayn stated as he kept rubbing the boys back.Louis entered the room a few moments later, dressed in completely new clothes. He huffed at the state of his baby before demanding Zayn to hand him over....shockingly, Harry calmed down almost right away once settled in his daddies arms.
