Maybe you could write about Anne babysitting Artemis ?
you can find more of my shy little boy here
-
Artemis was still very shy around Anne. He called her Mrs. Twist and blushed every time she'd compliment him or offer him a cookie.
Anne was in London for the week to visit her children and she was staying in Harry's house. The reason? She loved to see Harry with Artemis. The way he switched to dad mode as soon as he walked in the room and was ready to tend to his every need made her heart double its size.
Just like Harry, Anne loved children. The tiny humans never ceased to amaze her with their funny remarks and unfiltered questions. And she was sure Artemis was no different. He was just... shy.
Y/n couldn't help but feel bad every time her son would choose to hide behind her legs or press his little face on her neck instead of talking to the older woman or playing with her. She tried her best to teach Artemis to be polite and although Anne understood the situation, she didn't want to think her son was rude or disrespectful.
"Lovie, what do you say we go out tonight?" Harry had asked as he unloaded the groceries. "I could call that Japanese restaurant you like and make a reservation."
"Oh, I'd love that, H. But my moms can't babysit Artemis tonight, they have a business dinner." She said, an apologetic look on her face.
"My mum could stay with Artemis." He offered. "That way they'd bond a little bit too. Mum's been dying to get to know the little fella more."
"Are you sure she'll agree? Didn't she have a dinner with Gemma?"
"Gem got stuck at work, she called mum before I came here." he said. "I'll call her before I call the restaurant, please say yes, baby." Harry wrapped his arms around Y/n's waist, hugging her from behind.
"If Anne's okay with it, then so am I." She turned around in his arms, smiling sweetly at him.
Harry gave her a long, nice kiss before letting her go, fishing his phone out of his pocket to dial his mum's number. She picked up at the second tone, her cheerful voice making him smile softly.
"Hi, darling! I just came back from the supermarket."
"Hi, mum." He said lovingly. "I wanted to ask you something." Y/n silently asked him to put his mother on speaker and he obeyed.
"What is it, honey?"
"Would you be okay with babysitting Artemis tonight? I want to take Y/n out but her mums are busy and can't look after him." He explained.
"Oh my, I would love to! Yes, you take Y/n out, I'll take good care of little Artemis."
"Thank you so much, Anne. I really appreciate it." Y/n said, making her presence known.
"Hi, darling. Of course, I just hope Artemis likes the idea too. Poor little baby doesn't like being left alone with strangers." She cooed.
"You're no stranger, Anne. He really likes you, he tells me all the time. He's just..."
"Shy, sweetheart. I know." She said softly. "Don't worry about it, we're going to have loads of fun!"
-
Later that day, Harry returned to Y/n's home to pick her and Artemis up so he could drive them back to his house where Anne would watch over him.
Since Anne was yet to be in her son's girlfriend's house, Y/n thought Anne would feel more comfortable babysitting Artemis at Harry's. Plus, Artemis loved to be at Harry's place since the British man has been slowly transforming it into a more kid-friendly home, with loads of toys and snacks Artemis enjoyed.
He let himself in and called out for Y/n, who was making sure Artemis had everything in his bag to take to Harry's. 
Harry walked down the hall and found his two loves in the little boy's room. He greeted his girlfriend first, giving her a short kiss on the lips before Artemis demanded some attention too. "You look gorgeous, m'love." He hummed. "Hey there, champ. Ready to go?"
"Thank you, H." She smiled at him.
"I'm going too?"
"You'll stay with Anne, Harry's mum, remember?" Y/n said, crunching down to his height level to adjust his coat. He was dressed in his pajamas as it was almost his bedtime.
Harry grabbed his backpack and they all went out of the room. He put his hand on the small of Y/n's back. "You sure he's okay?"
"Yeah, I talked to him earlier. He's excited to go, just doesn't show it." She assured.
the drive to Harry's house was short, and before they left again, Y/n made sure to check on Artemis and remind him he was safe with Anne, and that he'd have loads of fun with the woman.
"What would you like to do first, darling?" Anne asked once it was just the two of them.
He kept quiet for a second, thinking. Then, he made his way to the living room, where he knew Harry kept a couple of board games. Anne followed him silently, waiting for him to get what he was looking for.
After a little time, he found the game and pulled it out of the pile carefully. "Wanna play with me?"
Anne sent him a warm smile before nodding. She sat down on the couch closest to the coffee table while Artemis took a seat on the floor. He chose a puzzle, something Anne wouldn't think a little kid would want to do but then again Artemis always chose the calmer, more quiet games. He didn't like the yelling of monopoly or the emotion a game of UNO brought. Sure, every now and then he'd play those and have a good time, but right now he wanted the make a puzzle.
"Have you done that one before?" She asked, leaning towards the coffee table as Artemis got the pieces of the puzzle out of the box.
He shook his head. "Harry said I could do this one after we finished that one." He pointed at the complete puzzle that was hanging on the wall, pieces glued together and put in a frame. "This one has the solar system, see?"
"Ohhh, it's very pretty. Did you pick it?"
He nodded shyly, looking up at Anne. This was the most he has talked to her, and it only left the woman more intrigued. She knew Harry adored this boy to pieces, always talked about him to her over the phone and felt the strong need to protect him at all times. She understood that although he didn't talk much, Artemis was a very lovable child.
Anne helped him with the hard pieces but it was mostly Artemis' work. He managed to get the outline of the puzzle before speaking up again. "Mrs. Twist, I'm thirsty."
"Sure thing, darling." She got up and got him a cup of water, making sure he drank it without spilling it on the puzzle. "Sweetheart, you know you can call me Anne, right?"
"Really?"
"Of course! But if Mrs. Twist makes you more comfortable then that's fine with me too, whatever you want."
"I think Anne is fine. It's shorter." He noted with rosy cheeks. Anne chuckled, nodding at his words. "My nanas call me Arty sometimes, you can too!"
Her heart melted on the spot. "I'd love too, darling."
They didn't finish the puzzle that night, after a while Artemis got a little bored and asked to watch a movie. He sat next to Anne on the couch but eventually moved closer to her and they ended up cuddling together.
"Honey, do you want some-" Looking down, she noticed the little boy fell asleep, glasses still on his face and mouth slightly open, barely audible snores coming out of it. Anne cooed silently at the sight, deciding to carry him to one of the bedrooms in Harry's house for extra comfort.
She tucked him in and gave him a little kiss on the forehead before getting up from the bed. She was about to turn away when she felt a little hand wrap around her wrist. "Can you stay with me, Anne?"
"Not going anywhere, precious boy."

Note
for my shy little boy, how would artemis react to harry picking him up from school by himself for the first time? I feel like they would be just as nervous as each other.
guess who just found this on her drafts hehe this is from the beginning of the relationship meaning artemis wasn't comfortable with harry yet, ok? ok
you can find more of my shy little boy here
||
Although Y/n was a single mom from the start, she has never been alone, not entirely. She always had family, friends, even co-workers one call away from her. Her car was in the shop? One of her moms would drive her around to run errands and pick up Artemis for his painting class. She was stuck in traffic? Her best friend would go pick Artemis up from school. She was stuck at work? Another friend would take her son out to eat lunch and wait for mommy to come home. The little boy was loved by so many people that would go out of their way just to make sure he was always safe and happy.
Nevertheless, there were times none of them would be available. After all, they all had jobs and trips to attend to. It happened every once in a while, nothing she couldn't handle.
But not this time.
Y/n had underestimated how long it would take her to grade the stack of papers she had let sit on her desk plus the emails on her computer waiting to be answered. There was no way she'd make it in time to Artemis' school to pick him up.
She tried reaching her moms but then remembered they were both out of the city. She had no luck with her best friend and she was running out of options.
Harry.
They've been sort of seeing each other for the past two months and Artemis have met him a couple of times.
She doubted for a second. Y/n knew Artemis wouldn't be thrilled, but what other option did she have? She just hoped Harry wouldn't mind. She dialed his number before she started overthinking. 
"What's up, love." Harry's excited tone made her smile. "Are ye out of work yet?" 
"Hi, Harr. I'm stuck at work."
"Who's picking up the little one from school?" 
"That's why I called. Could you do it?" Y/n closed her eyes in anticipation. "If you're busy I understand, I could call her teacher and ask her to stay with him for a while-"
"Hey, no need of that. Of course I'll go." 
"You sure?"
"Yeah, we could go out for lunch, have some fun." He sounded happy, eager to spend time with her son, and that calmed her down.
"I'll call the school so you won't have a problem at the entrance. I owe you one, thank you."
"You don't owe me anything." She could almost feel him roll his eyes. "Although I wouldn't mind a kiss." He said cheekily. 
"I'll see what I can do about that."
//
Harry arrived early. He sat in his car, running his hands through his pants in an attempt to calm his nerves. He has never been alone with Artemis alone. And he wasn't sure if the four-year-old even liked him. Harry just hoped he wouldn't be upset when he didn't see his mom cross his classroom door. 
"Hello, sir. Name, ID and who are you picking up?" A young woman with a clipboard smiled at him.
He hesitated before handing her his ID. "Harry Styles, I'm here to pick up Artemis Y/L/N. Uh, his mom said she'd call you." 
"All clear. Kindergarten is at the end of the hall." She handed him his ID back and Harry thanked her before starting walking down the hall. He smiled as he saw the artwork in the walls and the small humans already on their way out by the hand of their parents.
At the door, there was a woman who Harry assumed was the teacher. She was waving goodbye to a little girl with pigtails carrying a backpack bigger than her. 
"Hello, I'm Harry." He smiled. The teacher didn't recognize him or at least she hid it very well. "I'm here for Artemis."
Harry's eyes scanned the room, looking for the small mop of blonde curls that belonged to Artemis. When he found him, he couldn't help but smile at the sight. The small boy was completely oblivious of his presence, way too focused on the paper sheet he was cutting with his training scissors. 
"Artemis, darling. Harry's here to pick you up" 
The small boy looked up. At first, he didn't recognize the name but then when he looked at the man standing by the door he knew he was one of his mummy's "new friend", as she'd say. "Where's my mummy?" He asked as the teacher walked him to the door. 
"She's at work, buddy." Harry's tone was almost apologetically. His ego was a little hurt, still not used to kids not being happy to see him. "But, we're gonna have loads of fun, don't worry."
Artemis looked skeptical but nodded anyway. Harry accepted his backpack from the teacher's hands and offered a hand to the boy. He said bye to his teacher before accepting Harry's hand. 
"Can we call my mummy?" He said when they were finally out of school. "I miss her."
Harry's heart ached for this kid. He was way too adorable for his own good and Harry could already feel how smitten he would be for him if he were to stick around. Well, if Y/n would continue to have him because he was sure not going anywhere. 
Artemis sat patiently in the back of the car, waiting for Harry to dial his mum's number. She answered at the second ring and they had a quick chat where Y/n assured her son he would be safe with Harry. 
"Are you ready, bud?" Harry looked at him through the mirror, the hazel-eyed boy was playing with his hands, a sign he was nervous. 
"I don't have my car seat." He pointed. 
"Sorry about that, A. It was short notice but I promise I'll have one for next time, alright?" Artemis nodded. "What are you in the mood for? I was thinking lunch then ice cream?"
"I had a cold last week. Mummy says I can't have anything too cold."
In his mind, Harry was already on strike two. He's never felt so intimidated by a four-year-old with round glasses. He wanted this kid to like him so badly not just because he was dating his mother, but because he wanted to bond with him. It was no secret he loved children and until two months ago he thought all children loved him too. 
Harry pulled over in front of a small dinner he frequently goes to. He was hoping and praying he wouldn't get spotted, not wanting to put Artemis in any kind of uncomfortable situation. He helped him out of the car, keeping a hold of his hand as they entered the building. 
Luckily, it was mostly empty aside from a couple sitting on the other side of the room and two girls on a table close to the door. Harry guided Artemis to a table away from the windows and helped him sit on his chair. 
Despite the toddler not being able to read, Harry still moved his chair closer to him and opened the menu so the two of them could see it. Artemis used his hands to push himself up so his legs would be folded under his body, that giving him a little more height as he looked at the pictures of the menu. 
"Do you like macaroni cheese or would you like a soup?" Harry asked, pointing at the different photos. 
"I like the tomato one." He said before inserting one of his fingers in his mouth. Harry was quick to gently grab his small hand. 
"We have to wash out hands first, buddy." 
An old woman walked towards their table, greeting them. Harry ended up ordering two tomato soups before heading to the bathroom with Artemis to wash their hands. 
"Harry, do you like my mummy?" Artemis was looking at him with big, doe eyes. "My grandma said you do."
Harry chuckled, remembering the time one of Y/n's moms walked into her daughter's house to find him shirtless and barely awake. "I think your mummy is a wonderful woman."
"But do you like her?" He insisted. He never thought he would be interrogated by a four-year-old but here he was. 
"Would you be okay if I did?" 
The little boy shrugged. "I like when you make her smile." He tried to put it into words, but he did like the way his mummy smiled after she arrived from a date with Harry. Y/n thought he would be asleep, but the truth was he faked it just so he could make sure his mom would arrive safely home. 
Harry felt his smile widen, feeling touched at how much attention Artemis would pay to his mummy. This was for sure one special little boy and Harry would love nothing more than to be in his life forever.

“He said what?” Harry tried to hold his excitement from the other side of the line. “You’re joking, right?”
“I’m not! He asked me if I could put you in the approved pick up list.” She smiled. “Hope you don’t mind picking him more often.”
He sure didn’t.
