***LIAMS POINT OF VIEW***
I woke up to little whimpers and I automatically knew who they were from. I looked at the clock, squinting because my eyes were still adjusting to the darkness, and it said 3:17 AM in green letters. What? Niall never wakes up in the middle of the night. With that in my mind I quickly, yet gently got out of bed, since Zayn was still sleeping and I didn't want to wake him, and made my way to Niall's crib. I pulled open his curtains and walked over to him. I peered down to him and I cooed silently.
He was belly down trying to stand up but he was too unstable to do so his limbs would give out before he could push himself to his knees and hands. The doctor warned us that he would have trouble with his mobility, both due to malnourishment and because he would slip into a "headspace", meaning he would have the strength and mobility of the age he was regressed to.
"Hey baby boy, what are you doing awake angel?" I ask him as he continues to whine after trying to stand up once more and failing to do so. I pick him up from his position of being on his belly and turn him around so he's facing me.
"Did you have a bad dream, lovey?" I ask him and adjust him so we're chest to chest. He doesn't respond, but simply nuzzles his face to my neck and hear a quiet sigh of relief leave his lips. I continue to walk around the room like this, me holding him tight to my chest, as I sway in an effort to get him back to sleep. But after 20min and no luck I decide to just sit on the rocking chair in hopes of it soothing him enough to fall back to sleep. I sit in the rocking chair, and cradle him in my hold, as I rock him I begin to sing to him Lost Boys.

🎼There was a time when I was alone
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
My only friend was the man in the moon
And even sometimes he would go away, too
Then one night, as I closed my eyes
I saw a shadow flying high
He came to me with the sweetest smile
Told me he wanted to talk for awhile
He said, "Peter Pan, that's what they call me
I promise that you'll never be lonely, " and ever since that day
I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
"Run, run, lost boy, " they say to me
Away from all of reality
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
Believe in him and believe in me
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
To your beautiful destiny
As we soared above the town that never loved me
I realized I finally had a family
Soon enough we reached Neverland
Peacefully my feet hit the sand
And ever since that day
I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
"Run, run, lost boy, " they say to me
Away from all of reality
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, Wendy Darling
Even Captain Hook, you are my perfect story book
Neverland, I love you so
You are now my home sweet home
Forever a lost boy at last
Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, Wendy Darling
Even Captain Hook, you are my perfect story book
Neverland, I love you so
You are now my home sweet home
Forever a lost boy at last
And for always I will say
I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
"Run, run, lost boy, " they say to me
Away from all of reality
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
