We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen, still
~~~~~
"OH MY GOD"
Louis and Harry laughed while looking at Darcy who had her jaw dropped open
She looked up at Louis and Harry "Everything is for me?"
Harry leaned against Louis "Anything you want, it's yours"
She frowned "I didn't get you anything"
Louis smiled "You're here with us love, that's all that matters"
She picked up her toy camera and ran to sit between Louis and Harry
She aimed the camera up high "Smile!!"
Louis and Harry laughed as the flash hit.
For the second photo, all 3 were smiling and Darcy had her nose scrunched from how hard they were holding her
And for the third….
For the third they were both kissing her cheek as she smiled

Zayn was seated drinking a cup of hot chocolate when Yaser gave him wrapped gift
Zayn frowned and looked up at him "I told you I didn't need anything"
Yaser smiled "It's not much…. I promise it was no issue"
Zayn nodded and took it "Thank you" He looked at the gift "Do you want me to open it now?"
Yaser shrugged, Zayn put the cup of hot chocolate down on the table beside him and started to unwrap the gift
When he noticed it was a photo album, he froze
"There aren't many…. But they're all you when you're younger" Zayn slowly nodded "Every child deserves an album, yours just happens to be much- much smaller"
Zayn nodded, he opened the first page and smiled "Was I really that small?" He said before he looked at Yaser
Yaser sat down beside him and nodded "You were, Every second we saw you we were worried…. But you pulled through"
Zayn nodded "Why did you keep it?" He said turning to look at Yaser "It would've just been a bad memory of what you lost"
Yaser smiled "It would've been an amazing memory of our oldest"
Zayn shook his head "Second"
Yaser patted Zayn's back "Oldest…. Our first never made it, but out oldest did"
Zayn nodded, he continued to flip through the photos and furrowed his brows when he saw the last empty page
Yaser chuckled and Zayn turned to him
"Did you notice the necklace Trisha is always wearing?" Zayn nodded "There are 3 photos in there…. One of both of us with each of our sons" Zayn nodded
"I feel like I failed as a parent for not having photo albums now"
Yaser chuckled "All her photos are in your phone, and albums can start at anytime"
Zayn smiled and flipped to the first photo again "Right"
"Zayn!! Come here for a moment"
Zayn looked at Yaser "Do you know what they're planning?"
