Liam frowns hearing the loud crying coming from the baby monitor, he closed his computer noticing the time. It was 11:50 and he was finishing last minute work, he sets the computer aside tucking Zayn in

He was fast asleep as soon as Liam carried him up the steps as he demanded earlier. He opens the door gently walking across the hall to peek in Ezra's room, he noticed the little ginger crying his heart out sitting up in the crib

"Hey buddy what's wrong?" Liam asks turning the big light on to see Ezra's face and ears red from crying. Ezra made grabby hands whining making him coo scooping him up

Ezra clung onto him still crying, Liam felt him press his head on his neck. "Aw buddy you're pretty warm, are you sick?" he pouted sitting down in the rocking chair.

Liam pressed his hand against Ezra's forehead and his neck, "Oh man your very warm" Liam mumbles getting up to go his bathroom. Once Liam walked into his bedroom he noticed Zayn already up rubbing his eyes

"What happened?" He asks noticing Ezra in his arms whining. "I think he has a fever, I have to check his temperature first" Zayn gasps taking Ezra from him, "Oh my little angel"

While Liam is in the bathroom, Zayn started taking off Ezra's pajama top rubbing his back, "Daddy and I are gonna help you get better so you can run around and play"

"Pway" Ezra mumbles lying back on Zayn's chest. "How about this?" Liam says showing him the thermometer. "Is that the rectal thermometer?"

Liam looks at the box, "Uh yeah, why?"

"No were not using that, that's when you put it up the butt! He's in enough pain already. Get the other one!" Liam rushes back in making Zayn rub at Ezra's gut. "Jesus you're daddy doesn't work well under pressure"

Liam comes back out, "Ok I got it" he says sitting on the bed. He took off the top of it putting it near Ezra's forehead making him whine moving away

"It's ok buddy watch daddy," Liam says pressing the baby thermometer against his he'd making the numbers move. Ezra watches making grabby hands, Liam takes it off his head pressing it on his

Ezra squeals clapping making Zayn snorts rubbing his tummy. Liam leans in looking at the numbers, "100.4" he says lifting the it off his forehead. Ezra starts to cry rubbing his eyes

"We need medicine, and blankets, and pillows. He's sleeping with us" Zayn babbles picking him up rushing into the bathroom.

Ezra slides off the couch rubbing at his eyes. He looked towards his daddies sleeping on the couch making him frown patting their legs.

"Dada" he gurgles patting harder. Liam groans turning his back on him. Ezra turns around starting to rush away somewhere else squealing

He notices Loki in the kitchen sniffing around, "doggy pway" he exclaims chasing after Loki who keeps moving away. "Pway!" He giggles following the dog.

"Li? Where's Ezzy?" Zayn mumbles into his chest, they had decided to sleep downstairs. They were up all night trying to get Ezra to go to sleep.

"He's right here baby" he mumbles sleepily. Zayn opens his eyes looking at him, "Liam that's a fucking pillow"

Liam snuggles into the pillow, "Explains why he was so comfy. He'll be back later, probably went for a walk" Zayn sits up stretching a little, "Ezra! Where'd you go pancake?"

Zayn stands up once he doesn't hear little feet or squealing, "Liam wake up, Ezra ran away somewhere!" Liam whines, "He's ok, probably playing"

"Playing where? With what? With knives? Scissors? Liam he could be hurt, he's just a small bean" Zayn says frantically.

Liam rubs his eyes, "He's alright Zee I promise you" "Liam he's only one, get you're lazy ass up" he says kicking at his butt

"Hiiii!" Ezra exclaims from the top of the stairs. Zayn gasps, "Ezzy? What're you doing up there?!" "Aba pway!"

Zayn starts smacking Liam's back, "How the hell did he get up stairs?" Liam sits up looking, "What's he doing up there?"

Zayn scoffs getting up, "Oh wow Li you sound so concerned," he says sarcastically. "Ezra stay right there, baba will save you"

"Ayyy" Ezra claps rushing away. "He can easily walk back down the steps" "He's too small to do that, he might fall and break his little body"

Zayn rushes up the steps picking the smiling one year old who was standing by his room, "That's a no no, you can't go upstairs by yourself" "No!" "Right, that's a no no"

"You need to stop following Loki around, the dog will end up getting you hurt" Zayn says frowning at the dog rolling on his back

"No tummy rubs, downstairs now" Zayn says sternly motioning to the steps. "Liam you're dog growled at me!" Zayn yells at the dog already halfway down the steps

"That's nice dear" Liam mumbles closing his eyes. It was silent for a while until he felt a body on his back patting on it, "Dada" Ezra says putting his hands in Liam's hair

"Ezzy let dada sleep" Liam mumbles. "No! Pway" Ezra says moving to lay next to Liam. Liam wraps his arm around the one year old making him squeal moving his legs.

Zayn shakes his head sitting on Liam's legs, "Yeah Li, play with Ezzy since you didn't help me try to find him" Liam scoffs, "I gave you reassurance that he was fine"

Zayn rolls his eyes dragging his nail on Liam's bare feet making him squeal moving away. "Stop you know I hate that!" Zayn continues to do making him laugh trying to hide his feet, Ezra squeal grabbing Liam's nose. "Ok I'll play, just stop before I pee on the couch"

Zayn smiles patting his butt, "Make some oatmeal for us too"

*

Liam slyly watched as Zayn eagerly munched on his oatmeal, "You must've been hungry" Zayn shrugs, "I've been craving it for a while" he takes a bite of his banana before putting a spoonful of oatmeal in his mouth

Liam snorts looking at Ezra in his high chair actually clean as he's eating, "No messes today?" "No" Ezra says swinging his spoon around.

Liam kissed his forehead, "That medicine must've worked good, now we get to play all day!"

Ezra gives him a cheeky smile sticking his hand in his oatmeal. Liam raises an eyebrow, "I thought we said no messes Ezra"

Ezra puts the oatmeal in his mouth babbling. Zayn starts laughing, "You thought!" He scoffs. Ezra grins, putting the oatmeal in his hair making Liam sigh.

"That's not how you eat oatmeal sir, now we have to clean up"

"No!"

"Zayn, you're son just threw oatmeal at me"

"That's nice dear"
