Always & Forever

Chapter 22, "A long night"

Harry's POV

the next day....

I woke up realizing Jayda was still not home. I thought she would come straight home, but I soon realized I was wrong. I was beginning to become worried because I had no clue of where she was and she hasn't sent a single message.

Oh god what have I done?

I got up and took a shower. I realized it was already 3:00 and everyone else was already up when I walked out the room. They stared at me expecting me to say something, but I just walked into the kitchen going to get a drink.

Kara and Zayn were arriving today and I had to make sure their room was all done. Usually this was a job Jayda would do, but obviously she was MIA. I had to figure out how I was going to explain to them why she wasn't here. I didn't want to bring up the pregnancy or non pregnancy because it's just too soon.

"So you're really not going to say anything?" Eleanor asked, as I walked into the room.

"Don't start Eleanor. Why does have to be me to check on her? How come y'all can't?"

"First of all, we already have and she won't answer and secondly, because she's your wife Harry." she fired back.

"What makes you think she'll answer me?"

"Because she's probably waiting for you to be the one to contact her. Not us." Niall said.

"I don't want to talk about this right now. I have to get things ready for Kara and Zayn."

"Everything's already set Harry. The only missing piece is your wife and kids." Liam added.

"Uhh. I'm going back to my room," I said, spinning on my heel.

I didn't want to admit that I was worried, but it was driving me crazy not knowing where Jayda was or the kids. Are they okay? It such a simple thing to just text her, but my pride is too big.

Jayda's POV

Back at the beginning!!!

"Jayda?"

"Hey dad...."

"What are you doing here?" he asked confused.

I couldn't tell of whether he was mad or not, but I just wanted to get Hannah and Hendrix inside and out of the cold.

"I'm sorry for showing up unannounced. Is mom here?"

"No she just left."

"Oh. Well can we come in. It's freezing cold and I don't want the kids to get sick." I asked.

He reluctantly let us inside and I took them straight to my old room. It's been years since I've spoken to my dad. Ever since Harry and I left dinner with the whole family actually, which was I don't even know how long ago.

I walked back in the living room to find him sitting on the couch.

"Where's Jake and Josh?" I asked.

"They went with your mother as well. They should be turning up any minute now."

"Right."

The room filled with silence as I just looked around the place, reminiscing on old memories.

"Jayda why are you here?" he asked sternly, breaking the silence.

"I should've figured you wouldn't be excited to see me after all these years. Not even a how you doing or an are you okay?"

"Happy to see you?" he scoffed, " You left this house over some boy and never looked back."

"He's not just some boy now dad, he's my husband. And that's not true, I tried to get in touch with you. I tried to get you to come to the wedding, to my child birth, but you were too stubborn as always."
