Baby Blue IXX

It's noon on Friday when Harry comes home. Peanut is rushing towards him, obviously missing his daddy very much. He stands up on his hind legs and laps at Harry's face until all the 24 year old can smell is dog kibble and dog itself.

Harry shrugs off the pitt, sitting down beside him.

"You got a sister now, and I can't have you jumping all over her." Harry informs. Peanut just wags his tail, oblivious to the words coming out Harry's mouth. "I brought you a little gift. I need it back but..." Harry pulls out a very small blanket. It's got a monkey attached to it, and it's green and yellow.

Mia has grown quite fond of it despite her few days if age. She likes to grab it, she likes having it over her face for a few seconds, then having it pulled off. It makes her smile with all her pretty pink lips, chubby cheeks and gums.

"Go ahead. Get in there." Harry says. He lets Peanut bat at it and sniff away happily. He read online that if you give a dog a toy or a blanket of the newborn, they'll get used to the scent and not see them as an intruder. A small harmless intruder.

Leo comes swarming down too. Wrapping herself between Harry's legs and flicking her fluffy tail back and forth. Harry lets her sniff at the blanket too, petting her behind the ears until she purrs.

"Why do I have a feeling, Mia will like you better than Pea?" Harry asks the cat. She meows at him and he just shrugs, moving away from them.

He goes out to the range rover where Louis has Mia all wrapped up in a blanket. She's laying on his thighs and he's kissing her little hands.

They figured out quick Mia loathes things on her feet. On her legs in general. She can withstand a nappy, a onesie too. But any pants, socks, blankets, she kicks right off. She makes a rather big fuss about that. And they've figured out Mia only gets fussy when she's sleepy.

She also definitely that baby who poops and doesn't care. Which is bad for them, because when she's still sound asleep, they can't tell when she's soiled herself if they leave her alone.

Harry opens up the car door and smiles at Louis. The blue eyed boy turns to him, smile on his lips and he pries the baby off his lap.

"Can we go in now?" Harry lets out a sigh.

"I believe we can." Louis cheers to himself quietly and unbuckles himself slowly. Still cautious of his sore stomach.

"Can you get the bag from the back? And her carrier?" Harry rolls his eyes and fetches the things from the backseat.

"I know what to do, I packed the car before we left."

"You forgot formula."

"The hospital provided it for us, don't scold me." Louis smiles and slides out of the car with Mia on his shoulder. Harry's got their hospital stay bag, and their Mia bag. Stocked full of hospital, Grandma, and Auntie goodies. Plus a card from all Jay's girls and a finger print smudge from Dori and Ernie.

Harry carries in the stuff and Louis is right in front of him. Louis opens the door and is greeted with a bark from Peanut. Harry pushes into the foyer, setting down the bags quickly and grabbing Peanut by the collar and making him sit. He sits with him and Louis gently kneels down beside them.

Louis pulls Mia off his shoulder and she whines, but she doesn't cry. Louis turns the girl and sets her on the floor and Peanut leans forward and sniffs at the baby girl. Harry's still got a firm hold on him, and Louis is watching with apprehensive eyes.

"She's gonna need her bottle soon Hazzy." Harry nods and stares down at Mia. She's got her chubby little legs all free in her onesie. You can see the pink little birthmark on her leg, her little toes and her twitchy little feet.
