Hey y'all, so this story is almost done, just the epilogue to go! 

(May 8th - 8 weeks)

LOUIS

"Hi baby," I cooed, picking Vivian out of her crib as she squealed with laughter. She had been doing that a lot lately, smiling and laughing whenever she was awake. It was a good break and a relief that she wasn't crying all the time anymore. I kissed her chubby cheeks, smiling as she continued to giggle.

"Babe?" I called out, and Harry was in the room in a second. "Can you feed her? I have class in five minutes."

Both Harry and I were still in school, doing online classes so that we didn't have to leave Vivian. It was a lot less stressful, being able to do our work, while knowing that she was safe in the next room.

Harry walked over with a smile, kissing my forehead and taking her out of my arms. "Hey pumpkin. Time to eat, yeah?"

I watched fondly as Harry left the room, talking softly to her. 

Niall: yo crackhead

Louis: Um rude.

Niall: you wanna come over to our house for dinner?

Louis: I can bring Viv right?

Niall: obviously i need to see my goddaughter bitch

Louis: WhOrAn

"Hey losers," Niall greeted us at the door. Harry laughed, giving him a hug. 

"What's up Niall?"

"Not much, where's my goddaughter?" he demanded and I rolled my eyes.

"I should have known you only wanted to see Vivian." I grumbled, but handed her to him anyways.

"Hi Viv," Niall grinned, taking her into the house. I sighed dramatically, watching them leave.

"I bet you Niall's gonna steal her one day."

Harry chuckled, squeezing my sides. "Probably. I wouldn't put it past him."

I scoffed. "What a rude bitch."

We went to the living room to find everyone else already gathered there.

"Wow," I laughed. "Are we late or something?"

"Nah," Liam grinned. "We're all just early."

I plopped down on the couch, pulling down Harry beside me. He grunted, falling on top of me ungracefully. I giggled at his confused expression.

"Lou," he whined. "That's rude."

"Oh you big baby," I ran my fingers through his curls, tugging on them gently.

He rolled over so that his face was pressed against my tummy. He kissed the clothed spot softly.

"You guys realize you aren't alone in here right?" Jensen teased, and I scowled at him playfully.

"Piss of J," I shot back and he snorted, taking a swig of beer.

"How's Viv doing Lou?" Eleanor asked.

"Really good actually. She's stopped crying a lot and is mostly laughing and smiling, which is absolutely adorable," I smiled. "She still wakes up crying sometimes, but a lot less, so we're getting more sleep now."

Harry grinned, sitting up and pulling me closer to him. "She's growing up so fast," he complained. "I feel like it was yesterday that Lou was telling me he was pregnant."

Niall and Shawn came in with Vivian and some food.

"Here we are!" Niall exclaimed, setting down a bowl of chips.

"Um Niall, could we, by any chance, maybe have our daughter back?"

Niall glared at us. "No, she's mine now."

I rolled my eyes as Harry laughed. "Come on babe, give her back. You'll have your own children one day," Shawn lifted Vivian out of his arms, handing her back to me.

He sat back down next to a pouting Niall and kissed his lips. The pout was instantly gone.

I smiled, look around me, surrounded by my friends and people I love. Could it really get any better than this?
