Changing My Life

I woke up to crying and smiled, "I'll get him babe." I hummed in response as Liam kissed my forehead and got out of bed.
Taking care of Thomas is a bit hectic at times and very tiring but I love it nonetheless but I have to admit, I love seeing Liam with Thomas.
"Look who woke up." Liam said walking in our bedroom, I sat up and he gave me Thomas. "Hi baby. Are you hungry?" I asked him and he just looked at me wide eyed. I giggled and lifted my shirt, feeding him. Liam got in bed with us and I cuddled up to him.
"What time is it?" I asked and Liam looked on our bedside table, "7" I hummed in response and looked down at Thomas. "Is Emily going to school today?" He asked and I shook my head no. "She's still sick babe, I'll let her have another rest day and then she can go back on Monday." Liam nodded and relaxed.
"Is she still throwin-" He was about to ask but Emily cut him off. "MOMMY." I sighed and looked at Liam, "I'll go, you feed Thomas." I nodded and he again got up.
I know he got up for nothing but at least he's giving me time to feed Thomas. Emily always seem to want me when she's sick, it always happens. I looked down at Thomas and saw that he was finished so I started burping him.
"Babe? She wants you." I sighed and swung my legs over the bed. "Here, can you finish burping him? Make sure you burp him well or else we'll have 2 cranky children on our hands." He nodded and I handed Thomas to him.
I walked to her room and saw her bent over the toilet throwing up. "Oh honey, you're okay. Let it out." I said kneeling in front of her and rubbing her back. "I can't mommy, it hurts." She whimpered sitting back up. "I know honey, do you think you're done for now?" I asked but before she could nod she threw up again and I sighed.
"Hey babe, everything okay in here?" Liam asked walking in, he must have put Thomas in his room. We haven't let Thomas near Emily this week being a new born he can get seriously sick. "She's still throwing up, I don't know what to do." I told him while I rubbed her back and put a few strands of hair that fell off her messy bun behind her ear.
"I think I'm done now." She finally said and I looked at her worried, she felt really warm. Her fever hasn't gone down yet which is what worries me the most.
"How about a bath to make you feel better?" I asked and she shrugged looking at me with big wide eyes. "Can you help me with it?" I smiled and nodded. "Of course baby."
"Daddy, leave." Liam laughed and put his hands up in surrender. "Okay, okay I'm going. Call if you need me." He said before giving us a last glance and left the room.
Emily has started to grow really concerned about her privacy, she only lets me see her change her clothes. She says she's growing up but she's only 5.
I helped her out of her pajamas while I filled the bath. "How about I make you some soup?" I asked her and she nodded. "Yes please." I lifted her into the warm bath and helped her wash herself.
When we were done I put her in her favorite warm onesie and put her to bed again, giving her Cuddles and Elmo. I kissed her forehead and smiled at her. "I'm going to go make it for you baby, okay?" She nodded and closed her eyes. "Try not to fall asleep babe, I'll be quick." She nodded weakly and I left.
I walked into the kitchen and found Liam drinking coffee with Niall. "Hey, how is she?" Niall asked as he noticed me walk in. "I'm gonna give her some soup and her medicine." I said as I walked to the cabinet and got the stuff out.
Liam got up and wrapped his arms around my waist from behind me, kissing my shoulder. "I hate seeing her like this." I said and he sighed. "I know babe me too, maybe we should call the doctor again." I nodded and he kissed my cheek walking to the island to call the doctor.
I quickly put the soup in a pot and started boiling it while I made myself some coffee.
"Hello Dr. Turner. It's Liam Payne, I'm calling about Emily again." I heard him say and I sighed. We had already called her earlier this week and she gave us a prescription for her to take but it's not working.
"Well, her fever hasn't gone down yet and she hasn't stopped throwing up and we're getting a bit worried."
"Mhm."
"Mhm."
"Okay, thank you. Bye." He hung up and walked back up to me. "She said if her fever doesn't die down within the next 24 hours we should take her to the emergency room." He said calmly but I was no where near calm. My heart started racing and all the worst possibilities crossed my mind.
"Ams, calm down." He said hugging me. I took deep breaths trying to even my breathing and after a while I managed to get my heart rate back to normal. "She'll be fine babe." I nodded and turned back to the soup, pouring it into a bowl.
"I'm going to go feed her." I mumbled grabbing her medicine and the bowl putting them on a tray.
I walked upstairs and found Emily almost half asleep. As soon as I placed the tray on her bedside table she woke up.
"Hey, princess. Soup's done." I said and I helped her sit up. "Want mommy to feed you?" I asked and she nodded. "Let's take the medicine first so that you can get rid of the taste with the soup." I told her as I unscrewed the bottle's tap and gave her the medicine. Then I placed the bowl on my lap and scooped a spoonful of soup and fed her slowly.
"There you go baby." I told her as she finished the whole bowl. "Mommy can you cuddle with me now?" I smiled and nodded. "Of course baby." I said getting under the covers with her and pulled her to my chest.
"I miss Thomas." I sighed and ran my hand through her hair. "I know baby, you'll play with him soon. I'm sorry you can't right now but he's too small to get sick babe." She nodded and cuddled up to me, clutching cuddles and Elmo with her.
"Can you sing to me?" I smiled and rubbed her back. "Of course babe, what song?" I asked and she shrugged.
"My favorite." I smiled and hummed in response.
Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind, it was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me...

I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved your stomach or your thighs, the dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endlessly

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if I do
It's you
Oh it's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
And maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me

I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh, you still have to squeeze into your jeans
But you're perfect to me

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you
And you'll never treat yourself right darlin' but I want you to
If I let you know I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you, oh

I've just let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
'Cause it's you
Oh it's you
It's you they add up to
And I'm in love with you
And all these little things

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all your little things
I looked down at her and saw that she had fell asleep. I put her on her side of the bed and got out myself. I grabbed the tray and walked back downstairs.
While I was washing the dishes, Liam walked up to me and I smiled at him. "I don't suppose you're going to work are you?" He asked me and I shook my head. "She would want me here, I don't think I can." I told him and he nodded, "I know I shouldn't ask this but can I go to the studio today? Or should I stay?" I dropped the plate in the sink and rinsed my hands, drying them.
"Of course you can go babe." I told him and he looked down at me sadly. "Are you sure you don't need me?" I smiled and shook my head. "Go babe, I'll be fine." I told him and he sighed kissing me.
"I love you." He told me and I kissed him again.
"I love you too." I told him and he smiled. "I won't stay long okay? I will be home a bit after 3." I nodded and he turned to walk away and I spanked his butt with my towel rag. He turned around and with a shocked face and I smirked.
"Oh you're so gonna get it." He told me and I shrieked and ran around the island table while he chased me around. He quickly caught me and threw me on the sofa in the living room.
He straddled me and started tickling me. I laughed so hard, squeezing my eyes shut. I couldn't breath from the laughing. "Apologize and I'll get off." He said and I laughed even harder. "S-So-rr-y f-f-or sp-an-king y-ou." I said and he smiled in triumph and stopped tickling me. I tried to sit up and catch my breath, putting my hand over my chest.
"You know I can't breath properly and you still do that." I scolded him hitting his chest playfully and he gave me a shy smile. "Sorry babe but I love hearing you laugh." I laughed and shook my head at him. "I can't wait for these six weeks to be over, I'm so sore." I told him as I sat up properly. "Does it still hurt?" I nodded and looked at him sarcastically. "You try pushing a watermelon out of you."
He laughed even harder and shook his head at me. "Thomas is smaller than a watermelon." He said and I hit his chest playfully, pouting. "You know what I mean." He stopped laughing and kissed my pouty lips. "I'm sorry babe, I know I'm sorry. Thanks for pushing a watermelon out of you for me." I laughed and kissed him back.
"Sure anytime." I said sarcastically and he laughed. "Now go to the studio and write some sick songs." I said and he laughed. "Yes ma'am." He got up, saluted me and walked out the door.
Before he left he turned around and looked at me with his keys in his hands, putting his coat on.
"I love you." He said and I smiled at him, winking. "To infinity and beyond."
