Work Text:
The house occupied by the gang was quiet hence it being almost two in the morning. Though it seemed everyone was asleep, a regressed Giorno was trembling in his bed as he held onto his brown bunny tightly. Despite falling asleep big he woke up little and due to that he got paranoid making him slip into an even smaller headspace. The bunny he held onto was one he got from b-a-b so inside it played a special song that usually helped him calm down. As he pressed the button over and over and the song segment kept ending he chewed on his thumb and rocked his body. It took about twenty minutes for him to work up the courage and start making his way to his caregivers room.
"...dada ..abba" Giorno mumbled as he climbed off his bed and started crawling out his room. He put his stuffie to his side and held onto them for dear life. "come on !! we's gotta go !!" his voice was high pitched as he tried his best to make his way across the hallway as quickly as possible. When his knees and hands hit the floor they were muffled due to the carpet but sometimes he'd accidentally press the button on his bunny causing it to sing throughout the quiet hallway.
After a about five minutes Giorno made it to his intended room and got up on his knees so he could open the door. It took another minute for him to find out how to work the doorknob but he soon accomplished it with a 'click'. "dada!! abba!!" Giorno cried out and crawled into the room and to the bed. "huh??" The one to wake up was Bruno who looked around the dark room but his eyes haven't adjusted to the lack of light. "dada !!" Giorno set down his stuffie, got on his knees once again and made grabby hands towards his caregiver. Bruno realized it was one of his littles and looked over to where the voice came from, "what are you doing up, love bug?" he leaned down just enough to pick up the blonde and his bunny.
"I woke up an I got scawed!!" Giorno grabbed onto his caregivers night shirt and held on tightly. In this room monsters couldn't get him, his dada and papa wouldn't allow them to! "I dunnos what to do, 'm weally tiwed" He whimpered. Bruno looked down at the little with concern and started running his hand through his blond hair which was let down out of his usual braid. "I know baby, I know" Bruno shushed him and moved to sit on the edge of the bed so he could sit the little on his leg. "Is there anything I could get you? do you have your paci? or would you like a bottle?" He seemed very pushy but it was only in his nature.
"Mm" Giorno hummed and his hold on his caregiver's shirt loosened just a little. "...bottle" He mumbled and looked up at the other, "okay let's go get that for you, my little dove" Bruno still had some tiredness in his eyes but he got up anyway and went to the kitchen. When he got into the tiled room he looked at the clock noticing it was 2:47 am. He dismissed it as he knew his little was more important and looked through the cupboards and fridge, noting they were running low on ingredients to flavor the milk. "I'm sorry baby but tonight we're gonna have to stick with vanilla, okay?" Bruno bounced him on his hip as he mixed milk, vanilla extract, and a little bit of sugar into a baby bottle. Giorno nodded and started mouthing at Bruno's silk sleeve. The caregiver shook his head in adoration as he looked at the blonde and put the bottle in the microwave for about forty five seconds.
When the short amount of time passed the beeping of the microwave sounded throughout the quiet room causing Giorno to get frightened and whip his head towards the sound. "Shh it's okay love bug" Bruno held him closer and pulled out the bottle. "Let's go back to the room" He shut the microwave door with his stand and made his way up to his shared room. The bed was warm from it being accompanied by Abbacchio; the heat was gratefully appreciated. Bruno sat back down on the edge of the king sized bed and held Giorno like the baby he was. "Remember to drink slow little one" Bruno said before he set the bottle's tip on the blonde's lips and heard him make a noise of agreement. Giorno opened his mouth and took hold of the bottles tip.
"Good job baby just like that" His tiredness almost took over the caregiver causing him to take out his stand to watch over as he closed his eyes. Minutes and minutes passed as Giorno slowly suckled on the bottle. Though eventually he finished and whined when the rubber didn't move out of his mouth. That woke Bruno up and he opened his eyes to look at the little, putting his stand away. "All done?" He smiled, took the bottle and set it on the nightstand. "I know we're both tired but we gotta do a few more things before we can go to bed" The time he was spending with his little made it easy to tell Giorno was only just a baby and would need to be put in a diaper and probably would have to spend the night in the room.
Bruno moved the blonde to be sitting on one of his legs and started bouncing him up and down to make sure the extra air Giorno swallowed wouldn't cause any problems. Eventually after a couple minutes the little burped and sighed as he felt a little bit more comfortable. Bruno stood up once more and made his way to the connected bathroom, turning on the light in there so he could see. Extra diapers were there in case of times like these. The caregiver worked quickly as he took of Giorno's pajama pants and boxers to replace it with a diaper, baby powder, and pants once again. Giorno' didn't fuss once and in fact even snoozed off a bit.
"You're doing so good for me, my little dove" He whispered and made his way back to the bedroom, turning off the light before leaving. Bruno laid down on the bed and laid down Giorno between him and Abbacchio. He picked up the brown bunny that was abandoned and laid it down next to his little. With a final touch he took a spare pacifier from the nightstand drawer and put it in the blondes mouth. Finally he laid down on his side and wrapped his arm around Giorno and his boyfriend. The little and his caregiver than snoozed off together till late morning when they were noticed by a half awake Abbacchio.
