Always & Forever

Chapter 21, " Escape"

Harry's POV

I didn't know what to think right now. I wasn't necessarily upset, but I also wasn't "happy". I trudged into the kitchen gaining looks from everyone around.

"What?" I asked, trying to remain calm for the kid's sake.

"Nothing.....it's just why aren't you happy?" Eleanor asked.

"Happy? Why would I be happy?" I snapped.

Niall took the kids to go eat upstairs before finally returning back to us.

"Harold, what is wrong with you?" he asked.

"Wrong with me? Kara's baby just died and you think it's appropriate to have any talk of another baby?"

"You stupid idiot," Louis said, but just passed by me.

I turned around to see what he was walking towards and I found a tearful Jayda. She looked shattered. Louis tried to comfort her but she just politely patted his hand to let her know that it was fine. She went upstairs and returned back with the kids. She grabbed her keys and calmly walked out the door with them. Her calmness scared me.

I looked around the room gaining disappointing looks from everyone.

"Just great," Eleanor huffed.

"Aren't you going to go after her?" Liam pushed.

I just turned around and went to my room.

Jayda's POV

I was working up the nerve to go back in there when I heard Harry. His words cut deep. Don't you think I feel horrible about this too? I didn't want to be so happy about this when someone I call my sister is hurting because she just lost her baby.

I didn't know where I was driving to and I didn't even have clothes for the kids or myself. The kids kept asking me questions, but I had to stop crying before I answered anything.

"Okay babies, we're just going to take a little trip okay?" I assured them, fighting through my tears.

"Mommy, I want daddy," Hannah cried.

"Yeah well, daddy doesn't seem to want us right now." I said, under my breath.

I watched as the kids fell asleep. I drove in circles for hours until I ended up at the airport. Oh god.

Jayda do not get out this car, do not get out this car, do not get out this car.

Before I knew it, I was out of the car with the kids on the next flight home. They were still sleeping next to me as I sat wide awake waiting for the plane to move. What the hell am I doing? Oh fuck, Kara and Zayn are supposed to be moving in tomorrow.

Welp. It's too late now. I should probably figure out how I'm going to explain to my parents why I'm showing up with 2 kids and possibly one in the oven. Great.

Harry's POV

What in the fuck am I doing with myself? Jayda just took the kids god knows where and nobody has any clue of where the hell she went. My mum would have called me if she went there, so I can cross that off the list. She wouldn't go to Kara and Zayn's, so that leaves me at square one.

After hours in my room the boys finally barged in.

"Harry get your ass up and find out where your wife and kids are," Louis shouted.

"You might be okay with them being out at night alone, but I for one am not." Niall scolded.

"Then you go search for them." I snapped again.
