Battle Field .Z.M. ( sequel to Soldier )

Chapter 30: Happy Birthday Dad!

~Carlos' POV~

I am so mad that I'm sick on my dads birthday. I finish this drawing for him. It's a picture of him when he was 22 and when he was a little child and he's holding a little sign that says, 'Happy Birthday Zayn' It took a month to finish and to color.

"Carlos?" I heard my mum say. "How are you feeling?"

"Better then last week." I said, getting up. My body is still aching.

"Your father is out with his friends, mean while I'm going to make a cake for him." Mum smiled. "Elizabeth and Maria went to go get him some presents."

I got up, as I followed my mother. She was going down the steps and into the kitchen. I sat down at the table, I watched her make the cake.

"Your dad and I want to save our money for a family trip so I'll make him a cake." Mum said.

"Oh cool, where would we be traveling to?" I asked.

"Greece." She smiled. "Me and your father had our honeymoon there, it's very beautiful there. The beaches are too."

"I have a friend from Greece." I said.

"Oh that's cool." Mum giggled. "I hope this comes out right, I want it to be awesome."

Dad never really wanted a big birthday party but me and mum and Elizabeth over the years did it anyway. He does so much for us and my father needs this alot.

"We're home!" The girls said. "We have everything."

After we cleaned the house and baked the cake, dad was walking in the door already. "I'm home- whoa."

"Happy Birthday!" We jumped out. "We love you!"

Dad smiled.

"Guys, you didn't." He chuckled.

"Dad, yes you do." Elizabeth said. "You've done so much for us and you need this."

Dad laughed and hugged us. "Thanks guys."

Later that night
~Zayn's POV~

The cake was almost half gone, everyone was warn out, and I had icing on my face. I went to the bathroom to wash it off, when I was done, I was heading to bed.

"Zayn."

I turned around and saw Natalia standing at the door with a little box in her hands.

"Yes babe?" I asked, sitting down.

"I need to tell you something." She said, sitting next to me.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"Not really, Zayn." Natalia said, looking at me. "Remember when you wanted a baby?"

"Yes." I nodded, I held Natalia's hand.

"And remember..remember when we tried?" Natalia asked, I felt a tear hit my hand.

"Natalia-"

"Well when Elizabeth was 6 and we tried..I woke up that night and I had a miscarriage." Natalia said, covering her mouth from crying out. "I was scared to tell you because I didn't want you to worry. I cleaned up my mess and a put the baby in this box."

"Baby." I said, holding her.

"When I got shot, the bullet hit me where I was suppose to have babies." Natalia said. "Zayn, I'm so sorry, I'm sorry."

I kissed Natalia on the cheek and pulled her close. "It's alright."

"It hurt, Zayn." She cried.

"What hurt, love?" I asked.

"When I had to push the baby out." Natalia said, burying her face in the crock of my neck.

Natalia cried into my lap as I cupped her face.

"Am I mad?" I asked, Natalia and wiping her tears.

"No." She shook her head.

"Good because that's all that matters." I said, kissing her lips.

She hugged me and said, "I love you."

"I love you more." I said, smiling.
