"Come on bubs, put the trunks on or you can't go on the boat," Louis says sternly to the younger lad in front of him, currently only clad in a swim diaper.
"No! No trunks, just dis," Harry said, patting the front of his swim diaper before crossing his arms over his chest, pure stubbornness rolling from the boy in waves.
"Okay, you and I will go back to the hotel room for the day then while the others have fun," Louis said, pretending to go throw the trunks back in their suitcase. Louis had been Harrys primary caretaker since the one direction days, and it hadn't changed. Before Jeff took Harry in, Louis would take care of him for the majority of the time aside from when he was with Anne. Louis didn't mind, he absolutely loved the boy to pieces. When Jeff and Glenne told Louis that they would be willing to help with the boy, he couldn't help but be hesitant; Harry had a lot of needs for a grown man. Relying on diapers, Paci's, and stuffies. Things that people wouldn't guess looking at the handsome man. It took Louis quite a while to fully trust them to take care of Harry without him there, but he did eventually warm up to them just as much as Harry did. Harry loved his Foof and Gigi, but he loved his Loulou tenfold after knowing the older boy for 12 years.
Harry had been staying with Louis when Glenne called him saying she missed the two of them, inviting them on their private yacht for the day along with some friends. Louis of course didn't say no, and Harry was also ecstatic to see everyone.
Now it was a matter of getting him in his swim trunks.
"Nooo boooo, wanna go have fun," Harry whined, scrubbing at his eyes in emotion, getting himself worked up.
"Well then let's get these trunks on! We don't want to leave everyone waiting!" Louis said happily, trying to get the boy in a better mood. Harry sniffled slightly but stepped into the trunks, leaning against Louis' shoulder once he got them on.
"'M sorry for bein' a bad boy boo," Harry said quietly, snuggling into Louis' arms.
"You weren't being a bad boy love, just a little bit naughty, but boo knows you didn't sleep too well last night did you?" Louis asks softly, already knowing the answer since he was also up with the boy for half the night.
"M'huh, lotsa scary dreams, didn't like," Harry said with a shake of his head, pulling back to look at Louis with wide eyes.
"I bet you didn't, but you were a brave boy and told me you needed to use the potty, sat on the big boy potty and everything!" Louis said while ruffling the boys curls. It was a long standing goal of Louis' to potty train the boy, having the help of Jeff, Glenne, and Anne making it that much more of a realistic goal.
"Yeah! Wasn't scared when it flushed this time!" Harry said proudly. He had always been a bit afraid of the sound of the toilet flushing, especially toilets that flush automatically with motion. Something about how loud it is makes the boy feel like it's going to suck him in!
"So proud of you lad! We better get going, all our friends are waiting for us!" Louis said, scanning the changing room one last time along with their bag before they went to the middle of the ocean.
"Let's go boo!" Harry said, holding out his hand. He knew better to walk out in public without holding someones hand, the boy being too prone to wandering around when not holding onto someone.
Louis grasped Harrys hand in his and guided the boy outside, walking over to where their friends were setting up on the yacht. Harry started to hum softly to himself when he saw how crowded the boat was; there were of course workers on the boat along with Jeff, Glenne, Kendall, Cam, Nick, and a few other mutual friends that had been invited out for the day.
Louis gently guided Harry onto the boat, helping him over the ledge so he didn't trip, especially since the boy was still in his little world. Louis could tell instantly that he was a bit overwhelmed with he amount of people around; humming had always been a self soothing technique of Harrys, needing some sort of self stimulation in the chaotic environment.
"You okay love?" Louis asked quietly, using Harrys distraction as his opportunity to spray some sun screen on the boy, knowing he prefers the spray over the lotion.
Harry broke out of his trance, big green eyes meeting Louis' blue ones. "'M okay boo, wanna go see Foofer and Gi," Harry said, glancing around the yacht to look for the two. He hadn't seem them in a couple weeks since he had been with Louis, so to say he missed them was an understatement.
"Just a little bit of sunscreen on your face then we can go find them. This is such a big boat isn't it bubs! Lots of room for you to play!" Louis said as he tried to distract the boy from the sunscreen being lathered on his face. He absolutely hates the feeling of sunscreen and will in fact screech as loud as he can if it bothers him (per Louis' own personal experience).
"So excited to play! My friends are all here to play wif me!" Harry squealed happily, trying to look for people to play with. Louis finally led the boy further into the boat, spotting Glenne and Jeff chatting with a staff member.
"Gigi!!" Harry squealed happily, throwing himself at the woman. She was thrown off a bit, but happily wrapped her arms around the boy she loved the most.
"Hi baby!! I've missed you so much bubs! Have you been a good boy for boo?" Glenne asked, pressing kisses all over the little boys face. He let out a peal of giggles, trying to push her face away.
"Been so good! Had a wee on the big boy potty!" Harry said proudly, making sure everyone knew that he's a big boy now.
"Good job sweetheart! Gi is so proud of you! Give me a big kiss," Glenne cooed, receiving a sloppy peck on the lips from the boy. She had of course already known about Harrys big news since Louis sent it in their group chat, but she'll make the boy feel good about it anyways.
"Is this the big boy?" Jeff asked teasingly, turning to Glenne and Harry after greeting Louis.
"Dats me Foofer! 'M a big boy!" Harry squeals, leaping into Jeffs arms. Jeff pressed a kiss to his cheek and smiled at Louis who was beaming at the younger boy.
"Thanks for the invite guys, H was so excited to come out. The staff seems nice too!" Louis says as he looks around at everyone, some smiling and waving at them.
"The staff that we hired is only the best! We'll have a great time today that's for sure, now let's go have a few drinks and sit with everyone!" Jeff says as he releases his hold on Harry. He grabbed the younger boys hand and started guiding them all to where their friends were gathered at a table. On the way there, Harry was of course not paying attention to where he was going and ran right into a worker, tripping over himself and falling backwards on his bum in the process.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" Alice, according to her name badge, said. She was completely awe struck; she was not only looking at 2/5 of one direction, but she was a huge fan of Harrys solo music, seeing him on both of his tours. She knew that there were going to be celebrities on the boat, but what she didn't expect was to see Harry Styles of all people. She was internally freaking out, who knew that a random summer job she took at 18 would bring her to meet her idol.
"You okay H?" Louis asked, kneeling down next to the boy, the younger looking at him with shiny eyes. Louis knew that look all too well; a breakdown on it's way.
"I'm so sorry, I wasn't even looking at where I was going, are you alright?" Alice asked, holding out a hand to Harry. He hesitated, but took the hand and allowed her to help pull him up. He immediately leaned into Louis' side, going shy at the fact that he was hurt and he didn't know this woman.
"What do you say love?" Louis said quietly, nudging Harry a bit.
Harry shuffled closer to Louis a bit before making eye contact with the girl. "I'm okay, I wasn't looking where I was going either," Harry said quietly, smiling slightly at the girl. He was trying to be polite despite the fact he wanted to cry.
"I'm so happy you're okay! Can I get you anything?" She asked, nerves taking over as she rung her hands nervously.
Harry looked at Louis, unsure of what to do. "Can we get a glass of apple juice? We'll be right over with the rest of the group," Louis said with a smile. Alice nodded furiously before rushing towards the kitchen. Louis laughed at the girls obvious nerves before turning back to the boy.
"Are you okay love? That was a hard fall," Louis said in concern, knowing how sensitive the boy could be.
"'M okay boo, little ouchie but okay." Harry gave the older boy a quick cuddle before ushering Louis over to their friends. Harry of course had to make his rounds, going and hugging everyone as well as giving kisses (on the cheek of course, as he had been told lip kissies weren't appropriate for people outside of Gi, Foof, Mummy, and Boo). He giggled at all the love he was getting from his friends, even taking a couple cheeky photos with them.
Once Harry made his rounds and sat down next to Louis, he instantly whined loudly to get Louis' attention. "What's the matter bubba?" Louis asks quietly, trying not to interrupt the conversation going.
"Bum hurts from fall," Harry said with a pout, leaning his head on Louis' shoulder. Louis rolled his eyes, knowing that he's definitely not in any pain but wanting to get a paci from Louis; a common technique of his.
"I'm sorry to hear that angel, what should we do about that?" Louis asks, ruffling his fingers through Harrys curls a bit.
"Uhm, think that uh m'paci will make better?" Harry said hesitantly, smiling up at Louis with the most innocent look he could manage.
Louis sighed but dug into the diaper bag with a fond shake of his head. "You're lucky I love you, here you are darling." Louis pulls out a pacifier with a little duck on the front, Harry instantly putting it in his mouth and humming as he started sucking in a steady rhythm.
Once Alice had finally composed herself, she made her way back out to where the group of friends were gathered. She found it odd that everyone had ordered alcohol except for one glass of apple juice, she hadn't seen any children get on and at this point they had just left the dock.
She had to hold in her gasp and steady her grip on the tray of drinks she was holding when she saw Harry mother fucking Styles with a pacifier in his mouth. She made her way to the table, trying to not stare at the boy.
"I got your guys' drinks here! This one is the apple juice," she stated, moving the non alcoholic drink away from the apple juice. They all bid a thank you to the girl who walked far enough away to not be noticed, but still close enough to see what was going on. She watched as Louis put the apple juice in a sippy cup and passed it to the younger boy who happily took it and started downing the juice.
She was so confused; was this a kink of Harrys that he just doesn't share except with people close to him? In her mind it seemed like it was a kink, nothing else really making sense to her. She decided to just leave it be for now, not wanting to make a scene or anything especially since the more seasoned workers on the yacht don't seem bothered at all.
As time went by, Harry became the little social butterfly that everyone knows he is. He was hopping from lap to lap, playing with everyone and cracking jokes. He was so excited when Nick told him he'd go in the pool with him, not quite feeling brave enough to go into the ocean like everyone else was doing. Big bodies of water scared him, even large pools are a bit much.
"Ready H? Got your toys ready?" Nick asked as he attached two little floaties to his arms. The water they were going to go in wasn't that deep, but everyone knew how much the boy can panic.
"Got all of them Nicky! Ready to play!" Harry said happily, eyeing the pool. He had little rings that didn't sink to the bottom, a soft basketball with a hoop floaty, and some pool noodles. Jeff and Glenne had kept some of the things on the yacht for when Harry joins them.
Nick carefully guided the boy into the pool, feeling him tense up as the water got to his knees. "Scared Nicky," Harry whimpered, reaching out to the man.
"It's okay love! Do you want Nicky to carry you further?" Nick asked, holding out his arms. Without a question Harry scrambled into his arms, clinging to his shoulders and wrapping his legs around Nicks waist. They waded further into the water, Nick only going until it was about up to his hips. With a lot of persuasion, Harry let go of the older man. He eventually realized he wasn't going to collapse to the bottom and drown; instantly giggling as he kicked his legs out in the water.
Harry splashed and played happily, not even minding that everyone else was in the ocean, and then gathered in a hot tub nearby. Harry didn't like boiling hot water, and that's exactly what a hot tub felt like to him. Nick was happy to play with Harry instead of being with the 'adults'. He adored the boy, and honestly saw him as a younger brother. He loves how care free Harry is and how playful he is.
"How's it going bubs!" Glenne says happily, approaching the pool. She had decided she was done with the hot tub and swimming; she also knew it was about time for Harry to take a nap and wanted to snuggle him for a while.
"Good Gi! Gots my fishy!" Harry said, holding up a little fish toy that he had found in his diaper bag.
"That's great honey! Gi is gonna take a little picture of you to send to mummy," the woman said, quickly snapping the most adorable photo of the boy.
"Wanna come dry off and have a little snuggle with Gi?" Glenne asked once she had sent the photo; Harry instantly nodded, moving quickly to leave the pool.
"Guess we're done playing then huh?" Nick said with a laugh, not too bothered as he was kind of looking forward to the hot tub. Harry instantly felt bad, thinking he hurt Nicks feeling.
"Sorry Nicky! Wanna cuddle with Glenney on the couch, we swim again later?" Harry asked curiously, tilting his head to the side while reaching out to give Nick a hug. The older of the two laughed but nodded in agreement, knowing it's nearly impossible to say no to Harry.
Glenne had gone to the bar area of the yacht, asking for a glass of warm milk. Once brought out, she poured it in a bottle, watching as Harry clumsily tried to dry off. "Come here love bug, come sit with Glenney," Glenne called once she deemed the boy dry enough. He immediately plopped himself into her lap without a care, not even thinking about the size difference between the two of them. He snuggled in close, playing with her long hair while she guided the nipple of the bottle to his lips. He suckled the milk down quickly at first until Glenne tilted it back and warned him to slow down.
Within minutes his eyes were starting to droop, barely sucking on the bottle anymore once it was about half gone. She carefully took the bottle out of his mouth, replacing it with his dummy. He sucked on it slowly in his sleep, Glenne moving them so Harry was wrapped in a blanket they had on the couches of the yacht. She couldn't bring herself to set the boy down; she had admittedly missed him just as much as he had missed her and just wanted to hold him. It was obvious that Harry saw her as more of a mother figure than anything, loving the attention he got from the woman.
The others slowly but surely joined, Jeff offering to take the lad off Glennes lap, who of course declined. She was going to soak up as much cuddle time as she could get.
Thankfully Harry slept for a good hour and a half, waking up to a very wet nappy and surrounded by people, all who were looking at the menu trying to decide what to eat for dinner.
"Well, look who's awake!" Glenne announced, causing everyone to look at Harry. He was feeling pretty shy, still trying to wake up and all, and buried his face in her chest with a blush. They all chuckled lightly at him, everyone thinking about how adorable the boy is. The attention was quickly drawn back to the menus, but Harry remained hidden, playing with a strand of Glennes hair to avoid everyone.
"Shall we run to the little lads room?" Louis asked him quietly, trying to keep his voice down as he knew Harry was a shy one sometimes. Harry nodded in reply, letting go off Glennes hair and allowing Louis to lift him up. Louis grabbed the diaper bag and guided them to the nearest bathroom.
"Having fun?" Louis asked as he was wiping the boy down.
"Loads! Played in the pool wif Nicky, played on Kennys phone, got cuddles," Harry said, listing on his fingers all the things he had done so far. Louis of course knew all of this, but still acted just as excited as Harry.
"That's so great love! Lift this bum up so we can put a new nappy on," Louis instructed, watching fondly as Harry furrowed his eyebrows, trying to do what was told of him perfectly. "Good job baby, shall we put you in some clothes now? those swim trunks are probably cold," Louis said, patting his own back a bit at the fact that he packed a spare outfit.
"No more trunks! Gots me some shorts?" Harry asked sweetly, dimples pooling as he looked up at Louis.
"I sure do!" Louis said while tickling Harrys belly, getting a laugh out of the boy. He pulled out the yellow shorts and blue shirt he had packed for the boy, they weren't a complete match, but who cares.
The two of them made their way back to the table, Louis quickly glancing at the menu and deciding on a burger for himself and fish and chips for Harry, something simple that the boy wouldn't complain much about.
Alice had come to take their orders, glancing at Harry to see him frowning a bit, wiggling in his seat. She tried to pay him no mind, and didn't question it when Louis ordered for him even if she thought it was a bit strange. Some people don't like ordering and have anxiety when it comes to it, she wasn't going to judge!
She placed in the orders and stood by the bar to wait for the food, slightly watching the group of friends. She couldn't help but look at Harry who was looking around the boat, almost like he was looking for something. She accidentally made eye contact with him and quickly looked away, not wanting to get caught staring. She was quite honestly still in shock at how the day was going.
She shook herself out of her thoughts once the tray of food was up, taking it and quickly heading to the table. As she was serving out the food, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that Harry got up and scampered off. No one seemed to notice, or if they did they didn't mind, but to her he just seemed to be acting quite off.
"Can I get anything else for you guys?" Alice asked kindly, double checking that everyone seemed satisfied.
"Can you bring a couple more beers? We seem to be flying through them," Jeff said with a laugh, knowing it was mainly him and the other guys who were drinking them so fast.
"Of course! I'll be right back with those!" Alice said before taking off back to the kitchen. She grabbed a few more bottles of the alcohol and went back out to the bar. Just as she was getting ready to pop the tops off the bottles, she heard a weird groaning sound. She couldn't make out what it sounded like, but she was worried another worker was hurt or something was happening.
She headed towards the sound, only to find Harry in the corner of the boat, crouched down and face red in color. "Are you okay?" She asked, panicked that something was happening and that he needed actual medical attention.
Harry looked up, startled out of his concentration from where he was trying to do his business. Clearly he was trying to have a poo in private, couldn't she see that??
"G-go 'wayyy," Harry whined, grunting again as he continued to mess his newly cleaned diaper.
"O-okay, can I get someone for you?" Alice asked, still unsure of what was going on, but she had a faint idea of what could be happening even if it seemed completely crazy.
"Nooo, alone please," Harry said as nice as possible, slightly demanding. He wanted to poop in peace and didn't think that was too much to ask for!
Alice quickly turned around and fast walked around, mind spinning at what she had witnessed. She tried to turn her attention back to the group, carrying the tray of drinks over. Cam had seen her coming closer to them first, also catching a glance at Harry in the corner. He couldn't help but laugh at how outrageous the boy looked, attempting to hide while messing his diaper. "Looks like H is making a stink over there for someone to clean," Cam said with a laugh, Louis, Jeff, and Glenne taking a look over at the boy.
"Not it! I cleaned him up literally fifteen minutes ago," Louis said casually, taking a bite from his burger. Alice tried to pay no mind to the conversation at hand, but admittedly her head was spinning with thoughts.
"Ugh, I suppose I'll do it, Jeff you're next though," Glenne said, pointing a finger at her husband who playfully acted like he was going to bite it. She smacked his shoulder but had a fond smile on her face.
Just as all the drinks were passed out Harry came waddling back, a blush on his face. He was fiddling with his fingers nervously as he approached the group, smiling shyly at Alice.
"Bubs, do you have something to tell Gi?" Glenne asks gently, trying to breathe through her mouth as the stench was rolling off the boy.
"Uhm, need change Gigi," Harry said, face turning a shade darker. He bounced on his toes, swaying a bit.
"Okay bubs, thank you for letting me know! Let's go to the toilet," Glenne said, taking the diaper bag from Louis and guiding the boy towards the ladies room.
Alice was in complete shock at the events that transpired, and couldn't help sending a 'you'll never believe what just happened' text to her best friend. She figured this wasn't a kink anymore and is genuinely just how the boy is.
Just as she was gearing up to send the text to her friend to have her call her, Glenne and Harry left the bathroom. Harry seeming much happier and smelling a ton better. "Babes, you go sit and eat Glenney will be right there," Glenne said and pecked a kiss to Harrys cheek. He happily ran back to the table, diving into his food the second he sat down. Glenne turned towards Alice, definitely not oblivious to the shock the girl faced.
"So sorry you had to see that dear, I'm sure it's a bit odd to see him when he's not on stage being a big pop star," Glenne said with a nervous chuckle. She was really hoping she could convince the girl not to out Harry to the world, considering he had struggled to get to the place he's at now.
"It's no worries, I was just shocked is all. I didn't expect him to be like that, actually thought it was some type of kink," Alice said, also nervously laughing.
"Oh gosh no! No, Harry struggles with incontinence and home sickness; he often prefers to be a bit babied behind closed doors, it helps relax him and really prepares him to step out in public. He may seem like a normal 28 year old, but to us he's our baby and we'd really prefer it if it stayed on the down low?" Glenne said, gesturing to the girls phone. It didn't take a genius to know that Alice was going to tell someone about it, but Glenne was hoping to prevent it from spreading if she could.
"Don't worry about it, I'll make sure nobody finds out," Alice said with a smile, receiving a warm hug and a thank you from Glenne. She turned and walked back to the table, being greeted by a messy faced Harry.
Alice looked down at her phone, seeing she had a text from her friend, the text saying 'girl what is it??? I'm dying to know!!'
Alice stared at the screen for a solid minute before typing out her response. 'Just met some celebrities, some of the Kardashians and Harry Styles and his team, they were all so lovely :)' is all she wrote. She was going to spill everything to her best friend, as she typically does; but in this scenario, she really valued the boys privacy. She knew it'd be wrong of her to expose his secrets to the world, and wasn't going to be the one to let people know how he really acted. So, she maintained a professional demeanor the rest of the time, it being 100% worth it when the boy gave her a little wave as they left the boat.
