A New Beginning

Junior

You could tell just by looking at Iris that it was almost time for her to have the baby.

Niall wanted to go to Nando’s, when does he not? So we were all sitting here eating dinner and talking about anything we could think of.

“How much work do you guys have left in the studio?” I asked.

“A pretty good bit,” Niall said.

“Yeah, we’ve still got a few more songs to write and record. We’ve got most of the other songs recorded already,” Zayn said glancing at Niall.

“That’s good. I’m glad things are going well for you guys,” I smiled.

“I can’t wait to hear the new stuff,” Tyler said.

“Well, if you want, you can come to the studio with us whenever you want,” Zayn offered.

“Really? That would be awesome!” Tyler said excitedly. I was so glad he moved here. It was nice to have family close by. I didn’t get to see my parents unless it was on Skype. They stayed in the States to help take care of my Grandparents.

“He’s kicking again,” Iris said to Niall. I laughed when I saw Niall jump and turn towards her, placing his hand where she was pointing. He was so excited.

“I think he’s gonna be a footballer,” he smiled at Iris.

“Well, he’s sure getting some practice now,” she laughed. We had finished our meal and everyone was getting ready to go. Iris stood up and I saw her eyes get wide.

“What is it? Are you okay?” I asked.

“I think my water just broke,” she said looking down. Niall hurriedly grabbed all of their things and helped her to the car. Tyler drove their car so Niall could stay in the back with Iris. Zayn and I followed them to the hospital. Zayn ran in ahead of them and told the nurse Iris was in labor. She followed him out the door with a wheelchair and took her inside with Niall following close behind. Tyler, Zayn and I stayed in the waiting room waiting for Niall to come back out. We were just sitting there watching whatever they had on the TV when I jumped.

“What? You alright?” Zayn asked.

“Yea, she kicked,” I laughed.

“Where?” I took his hand and put it where I had felt her kick and waited for her to kick again. After a minute, I felt her kick again and smiled up at Zayn. I let a tear roll down my cheek. He took his other hand and wiped away the tear, kissing my cheek.

“Ty, you wanna feel your niece?” I asked. I took Tyler’s hand and put it next to Zayn’s on my belly. She kicked again and I looked at Tyler. He was grinning and laughing.

“That’s amazing,” he said. We sat there for a few hours before we heard anything. Niall came out and walked over to us smiling.

“He’s here,” he said with a grin on his face.

“How are they?” I asked.

“They are great. They are both sleeping.”

“I think we’ll go home and let you all rest before we see him,” I told Niall. He nodded and we all stood up and hugged him before we left. We returned the next day and knocked on the door before walking into Iris’s room. Zayn had texted Niall before we left to make sure she was awake before we showed up.

“Hi, sweetie, how you feeling?” Tyler asked walking over to her bed and giving her a hug.

“I’m great. Thanks for coming, guys,” she smiled. Zayn and I hugged her before sitting on the couch. “Jess, you want to feed him?” she asked.
