I danced around the room. Baby shower!!! After all those months, it's finally here!!! I turned and turned around the room. It's so pretty!!! I smiled at my paintings on the walls, hopefully little Leah will like them. 

I glanced at the size Lily has grown to. It reminds me Leah could come any day, and I had to be prepared at all times. Being prepared at all times is hard work. Or at least for me. As much of a cautious person I am, I don’t think I can ever be ready.

“This is so cute!!!” I exclaimed, looking at the various baby clothes lined up in the closet. I had always had a soft spot for new borns. I didn’t want to tear my eyes away from the closet, they were so cute.

“Ty, she's moving again.” Lily said, looking down at her stomach. I moved over to her, joyed and placed my hand on her stomach. I felt the small movements of Leah in there. It amazes me really, life can move before it's born. I smiled at her, only a few days now till we see her face.

“They paintings are great, Ty” I smiled, I’m glad my works can make people happy for once. Well I never really thought I would make any sort of picture for a baby's room. I put my thought into words, looking at Lily with a serious expression.

“You do realize she can come anytime?” I felt my worries grow larger.

“Yes... she could” She said looking back down at the thought, a laugh escaping her. I think we are all frightened, not sure when anything is going to happen. “Man, I remember when I was your size.” I had to laugh at that. Even though she several months older than me, and a bit taller, she was always as skinny as me. That because of her eating habits, if your a vegetarian, there is no way you could be fat.

“You haven’t change much!” I said trying to cheer her up, “I bet you didn’t gain any more than 20 pounds!!!”

I walked around a bit and found a small pink blanket in the cradle Leah Tyall it said in loopy letters.

“Leah Tyall. Original” I smiled. Ty and Niall, her future god parents. Or at least that's what Lily and I had discussed. We were her closest friends, but she could have changed her mind.

“We’ll Nigra doesn’t sound right.” I laughed, almost snorting. She hasn’t lost her sense of humor.

“Have a wedding date yet?” In truth, I hope that wedding never comes. It would only bring misery. To Zayn, and I know eventually Nathan and Lily. Nathan would find out Lily doesn’t really Love him. Man, this can be a catastrophe. Zayn had spilled his feelings to me every minute he could. 

“ I’m thinking about a month after she's born.” She sighed and looked up at me, “Ty, you know I’m only doing this for Leah, she needs a full family.” You can have a full one with Zayn, I thought gritting my teeth. She shouldn’t be raised in a family who the parents don’t really love each other, and her dad really isn’t her dad at all. It would be horrifying!

“Then marry Zayn!” I said, my thoughts slipping out into words. A wave of hurt flickered in her eyes, and I knew I immediately regretted it. “I’m sorry Lily. I’m just stressed. You should go to bed, it's getting late.”

I sat at the edge of her bed till she fell asleep. I felt a wave of panic wipe over me. Air, I need air. I got up quietly and went over and opened the doors to her balcony. I slowly closed the door behind me and left it open a crack so I wouldn’t get locked out.

I turned to the evening breeze, taking deep gulps of it.

“It's ok Ty, calm down, everything will be alright.”

“or at least that's what I hope.” I wiped around at the sudden voice. I could barely see who it was, but I knew the voice. His hair blended in with the shadows, making it harder to see him. I didn’t care if I had problems with him, I desperately needed his comfort. My brother, the only one I have ever known. I brought him into a tight hug, breathing in his scent.
