Summary
"Harry hummed softly as he plated the last pancake and flicked the stove off, swaying his hips to the song blasting from the radio as he sashayed around the kitchen to fetch juice from the fridge. He shuffled towards their dining table, leaning down to press a chaste kiss to the top of feathery hair as large baby blue eyes stared up at him with doe eyed wonder, mouth sucking furiously at the pacifier trapped between thin lips.
“How’s my baby today? Good?” Harry smiled at the innocent male as he lowered a smaller stack of pancakes in front of the smaller male, chuckling fondly when he received no reply save for the steady suckling of plastic, one small hand reaching up to paw fascinatedly at the rough stubble decorating his chin. He nuzzled into Louis’ palm, turning to smack a loud wet kiss on the smooth skin before nipping playfully at those lithe fingers, dimpling at the melodic giggles bubbling from his little boy.
“You’re so cute, baby.” He muttered under his breath, glancing up just to catch the mischievous baby flooding his pancakes with chocolate sauce."

Summary
"Harry remembered the first time he’d met Louis- the very same day he’d somehow found himself as a daddy, a helpless man-boy in his care.
He’d been in the middle of filming a scene for a war movie, dodging and ducking behind crumbling walls and peeking out among the chaotic screaming masses as explosions ripped the town apart, open gunfire raining down around him.
He’d been scanning the area studiously, trying to comprehend the situation as much as he could, when a flash of caramel hair caught at the edge of his vision.
He’d whipped his head around, eyes darting across the piles of fallen bodies and wreckage, before finally landing on him- a young boy trembling in the middle of the street, clothing tattered and large baby blue eyes wide with terror."

Summary
"“She kissed me, Daddy.” Louis blubbered incomprehensibly through his tears, tears streaming at an even faster pace as he let out a sad whimper.
“I saw, baby. It just means that she likes you.” Harry soothed, squeezing the miserable baby in his arms comfortingly. Louis shook his head vehemently, lifting it slightly from where he’d stuffed it into the crook of his neck.
“No, Daddy! Kisses are for people you love, like, like people you wanna marry.”"

Summary
"“NO! Daddy!” Louis whimpered, arms reattaching to the other male as soon as they were free and hanging on for dear life, even as Zayn tugged at him. Harry sighed, kneeling before the distressed boy and shushing him gently, smiling apologetically at his work partner as she made her way over.
“Aww, poor little thing.” Cara cooed, bopping Louis gently on the nose, laughing in amusement as the younger male growled menacingly at her.
He didn’t like her- not when she’d been taking all Daddy’s attention from him.
Daddy was his."Or, in other words, the jealous/hurt Baby!Lou fic

Summary
"It wasn’t like Louis to sleep in so late- the boy was usually up and about even before him, in fact, his internal body clock waking him at the crack of dawn.
“Lou?” He called, cracking the bedroom door open and popping his head through the gap, spotting a tightly wrapped bundle on the bed.
“Honey, it’s time for breakfast.” Harry moved towards the bed, tugging away the covers to rouse the boy, breath inhaled in a horrified gasp as his eyes finally settled on his baby- Louis was pale, yet with a flush of red high on his cheekbones, a sheen of sweat covering his forehead.
Harry dashed to the bathroom, digging through the cabinets for their ear thermometer, heart pounding frantically as he read the numbers flashing on the little monitor.
41 degrees."

Summary
“…Daddy?” Harry hummed distractedly, reaching up to the cupboard above his head to dig around for Louis’ sippy cup.
“What’s- what’s a birthday?” He froze at Louis’ hesitant question, heart sinking as he slowly turned to face his confused boy.
“You- Lou, you’ve never celebrated a birthday?” The smaller male simply blinked at him, lips still guilelessly working at the pacifier, not even realizing the overwhelming sadness he’d just inflicted on Harry with his question.
“It’s the day you were born, sweetheart. And we celebrate it every year, because it’s a special day, and we want to remember that.” Harry explained gently, voice low and quiet as he turned away, not wanting Louis to see the tears in his eyes.
“… It makes Daddy happy? Today?”

Summary
" “Hey there, kid.” Louis startled at the voice, glancing up quickly at the sound of approaching footsteps. He froze as he took in the other male, blanching as he catalogued the brown hair and bright blue eyes- much like his very own.
“Now, now, aren’t you going to come greet your real father? After all, I’ve missed you so much.” Louis gulped, stumbling backwards with a tiny squeak, trembles wrecking his lithe frame as the man skulked forward with a malicious smirk, reaching out to grab at him."

Summary
"Harry sighed as he gazed at his poor boy, reaching out to smooth stray strands away from his eyes as he slumbered on peacefully.
He knew he shouldn’t have let him sleep over.
No one would treat Louis the way he deserved after all- with absolute, utmost care, and love, like he was something precious that needed to be protected with one’s life.
Because he was.
Harry sighed once again, slipping in behind the smaller male and cradling him carefully in his arms to refrain from aggravating his wound, his entire body screaming at him for failing to protect his baby."

Summary
"Harry trudged through their front door with a heavy sigh, slumping against it and running an exhausted hand through his frazzled curls. The corners of his lips twitched, the bone deep weariness lifting slightly when he hears the soft patter of footsteps running his way, their owner following soon after with an excited squeal as he spotted Harry.
“Daddy!” Louis cheered, scrambling straight into Harry’s outstretched arms as the elder knelt down to welcome the energetic male, heart softening with absolute adoration for his boy; at his infectious enthusiasm and overflowing love for his daddy, always happy to see him, and yet possibly one of the only people who never expected more from him than who he was.
Louis was precisely what he needed after the long, frustrating day he’d had- a miracle balm to soothe the soul, in the form of his spirited baby."

Summary
“Are you alright, darling?” Louis nodded sadly, burrowing himself into the comforting warmth of Harry’s embrace.
“I-I don’t like that man, Daddy.”
“I’m sorry that man was mean to you, darling.” Harry soothed, pressing a lingering kiss to his temple as he hugged the small body close to him, rubbing little circles on his back.
Seeing his boy so timid and frightened had sent flashbacks of a time long ago when Louis’d first come to live with him flickering through his mind.Series

Summary
“Why are you on the floor? Silly Daddy!” Louis giggled, squatting down beside the prone form of his daddy, poking it playfully. He frowned when Harry made no movement to get up as he’d expected- no jumping up with a loud roar while making to tickle him, or sweeping him up into his arms to pepper little kisses all over his face (something his daddy loved to do when Louis was upset).
“Daddy?” Louis voiced once again, worry creeping into his voice as the elder remained stoic on the ground.
“Daddy, get up, it’s not funny anymore.” He urged, voice wavering with his growing panic and fear, because this wasn’t right.

"“Dadddddddyyyyy!” Louis sung happily, skipping over to him and pouncing on his legs, hugging his hips as he grinned up at him adoringly. Harry smiled, thanking the heavens for bringing the boy to him when he did, that he could have helped him at least."

Summary
"Christmas is a time you spend with family, and there’s food and music, and decorations, and gifts-just a nice day to relax and show each other how much we appreciate them.” He continued, waving towards the huge tree standing proudly in the corner of the lounge, brightly wrapped presents stacked underneath, Louis’ eyes growing even larger as he took the sight in.
He clambered down Harry’s leg, scuttling across to inspect the tree carefully.
He touched the shiny baubles with feather light fingers, trailing reverently down scratchy tinsel and those magical fairy lights, before peeking curiously at the presents, several tags on them reading his name."

Summary
“Daddy,” Louis sobbed, clinging tightly on to the elder as he pressed his face into his neck, seeking comfort from his daddy.
“I’m sorry, Daddy, I’m sorry!” He wailed, babbling hysterical apologies over and over as Harry squeezed him tightly in his arms, shushing him gently and pressing reassuring kisses to his head.
What on earth did they do to his poor boy?
“It’s okay, Lou. It’s okay. Tell Daddy what’s wrong, darling. What’s happened?” He asked anxiously, smoothing a palm down his trembling back and holding him close, whispering softly to the distraught boy.

Summary
"Daddy, guess what day it is today!” Harry hummed in thought, tapping at his bottom lip as he pretended to ponder the question.
“Hmm. I don’t know baby, the day we go to work?” He posed with a cheeky smile, chuckling lightly at the growing pout on his boy’s face, the latter vehemently shaking his head.
“No, Daddy! It’s my birthday!” He announced proudly. Harry faux gasped at the information, swinging the hyperactive boy into his arms, pressing a loud wet kiss to his cheek.
“It is too!” He exclaimed loudly, smile softening with affection at the way Louis pressed his cherry pink cheeks into his small palms as he giggled happily.
“Happy birthday, baby boy.” He murmured gently, Louis wrapping his arms around his neck tightly in a warm embrace.

Summary
Harry watched as she walked away, heart sinking lower and lower with every step she took, away from him- from them.
From their lives.
He continued to stare forlornly at the spot she’d been just moments ago, heart clenching at the painful realization that this really was it.
She was gone.
She never once looked back. He mused absently, the thought slicing even deeper into his tenderly wounded heart that maybe she’d been wanting this all along- had been so eager to leave that she could so easily leave them behind without a second glance.
