Harry had finished his tour over a month ago now and him and YN have been using all this time to get everything ready for the arrival of their first child. He had made sure to clear his entire schedule for the next year and a half to spend as much as time as possible with his family and take care of the baby and his wife. They had already done all the shopping necessary, built the crib, painted and decorated the nursery and had all the clothes clean and ready to be used. Well, to be fair, Harry had done most of the building and painting, due to YN having a massive belly that didn't allow her to even bend to pick anything from the ground. Harry loved it though. He loved helping his heavily pregnant wife with anything and everything - after all, she was giving life to their little creation. He loved giving her feet massages every night to help alleviate the swelling, he cherished the moments spent together in bed, massaging cream onto her belly and feeling their little baby kick and move around, it was such an intimate and special part of they day for both of them. They were so eager to meet the little one, counting down the days till the due date, which happened to be almost a week ago now. It seems as though the little baby was very comfortable and had no intention of coming out anytime soon, which is why they were both on their way to what would hopefully be their last gynaecologist appointment before meeting their little one.
"How are y'feelin', love?" Harry asked, one hand on the steering wheel and the other resting on YN's inner thigh, giving small reassuring and calming squeezes from time to time. "Uncomfortable" she sighed, trying to reposition herself on her seat. It hadn't been a tough pregnancy per se, like some people had. Overall, there hadn't been any major problems, except the typical heartburn, swollen feet and sensible breasts, but the worst part by far had been the back pain. No matter how she positioned herself, it always hurt somewhere. The only thing that made it bearable was Harry's magical hands.YN swears that Harry's hands give the best massages she's ever had. "Can't stay seated for long, my back's killing me today. I cannot wait for them to get out already".
"Not long now, darlin'. Hopefully you'll get induced today and we'll have them here by tomorrow" Harry tried to distract you from your pain a little, excited about meeting your little baby pretty soon now. "And if it's not today or tomorrow it's okay, it means they're still growing inside" he tried to cheer YN up a little while rubbing her belly. It was obvious she was so over being pregnant already. She had loved every single second of it, but now she was desperate to hold their baby in her arms and for her back to stop hurting.

The appointment had turned out to be successful: YN was getting induced and their little baby would make their arrival in mere hours. Harry was ecstatic. Well, to be fair, he was shitting his pants, but excited nonetheless. As soon as YN was moved into her own room, Harry made sure to bring her ice chips to alleviate her hunger and thirst. He never left her side once, holding her hand, accommodating her pillow or the sheets, even helped her walk around the room to help the Pitocin speed up the process.
"In less than 24 hours we'll have our little one here with us" YN whispered, looking over at Harry, who was sitting by the end of the bed giving her one of his marvellous foot massages. "They'll be here, yeah. Can't believe we're gonna be a family of three now" Harry smiled widely up at her, not hiding his excitement in the slightest. He stretched his arm and rubbed the lower end of YN's belly, feeling baby Styles wiggle a little, saying hi to their daddy. "D'ye want me to put the playlist?" Harry and YN had prepared a playlist to use during the birth with songs that seemed to create a chilled and relaxed ambiance in the room. The songs were mostly from Harry's albums and others he'd written for other artists, but there were others from smaller artists that had calmed the baby many times before, when they'd play the song around the house or during car drives.
"Yes, please" YN plead right before the doctor came in. Harry pressed play on the playlist and She started playing quietly through the built-in speakers of the private hospital room. The very first baby Styles was almost here.
After 6 long hours of labour, hearing her little shriek and loud cry felt like heaven. She was immediately placed on YN's chest, while Harry held her hand looking down at both of his beautiful girls. "Sh-she's here" he whispered, unable to process it just yet, overwhelmed with joy and fascination. "You've done it, angel. You've brought her into this world". YN looked up at him from the baby, teary-eyed from the joy of having their baby girl finally with them and the pain she had endured for over 6 long hours. "We did it, H. Could't have done it without you". Their foreheads met for a few seconds. The unspoken words were deeply felt by both of them. Their hearts had never felt this full of love and adoration before.

As soon as they arrived home, H helped YN sit down on the sofa to breastfeed Olivia. "I'm gonna go run you a nice warm bath, how does that sound, angel?" he offered while kissing YN's forehead and stroking Olivia's small cheek, feeling her eagerly suck for her first meal at home. "Mmmmmm" she hummed, closing her eyes and slightly leaning onto him, feeling exhausted for the longest yet happiest 48 hours of their lives. "It sounds wonderful, I'd love that, thank you, darlin'".
When Harry came downstairs, YN was walking back and forth around the living room, rocking Olivia trying to make her burp before putting her to sleep again. "Here, I'll burp her, you go relax, angel, you need it. I've got it from here" he pecked YN's lips and picked Olivia from her arms, resting her on his shoulder giving her soft pats on her little back, like YN had been holding her before he had arrived. "If you need anything, please, come get me" she kissed his cheek before making her way to the bathroom.
"It's just you and me now, little princess" he smiled down at his mini-me. He never knew it was possible to feel so full of love, adoration and pride towards such a tiny and adorable human. He finally had the little family he had always dreamed of, with the one person he loved the most.
