Use Somebody

Chapter 49:

Louis's POV:

5 months later

I went to every appointment after that and listened to the baby's heart and watched as she kicked Harry. She was strong, I could place my hand on his stomach and feel the impact she was making. She was doing karate or something. I couldn't wait to meet her. Harry was due any day now. I've waited for five months to meet our little bean as Harry calls her. I was making lunch for Harry and myself and baby, I was just making sandwiches and having some crisps. I place the plates on the table and wait for Harry to come down.

"Louis! Louis! I need you! Now!" Harry yells.

I run to the room and see him standing with his hand against the wall and one holding his bump.

"Is she doing her karate again, Angel?"

"No, my water broke."

Harry is scared, he's never made it this far before.

"It's okay Angel. Our baby is almost here. Just stay calm. Here let's walk."

"I can't. I don't want to hurt her! Please Louis." Harry had small tears running down his face.

I wipe the tears off of his face and I kiss his nose just like I did when I found out he was pregnant.

"It's okay, walking is good for her. Don't worry Angel. You're strong, you can do this."

He shakes his head no. I grab his hands and walk backwards with him. He's walking forwards to keep up with me. I have him in the living room now and I sit him down on the couch. I go back and get him a new pair of underwear and sweatpants. I walk back into the living room and see him sitting there with his face twisted. Harry was rubbing his stomach.

"It hurts!"

"I know Angel."

I'm sitting down next to him rubbing his head. I grab a hair tie and tie his hair back into a bun to get it off of his neck.

"Is it over?"

"Yes." Harry says breathing a sigh of relief.

He had two more contractions in that hour. Which meant they are 30 minutes apart, he's a long way from delivering. Harry leans back on the couch and I'm still holding him.

"Do you want to call Gemma and Zayn? See if they'll come over?"

Harry nods and I get up to make the call. I hear the phone ringing and then hear Zayn's voice followed by a baby crying.

"Hey, I know you're probably busy but Harry needs some family to come over. His water broke about an hour ago and he's not doing well. He's in pain and needs company."

"Yeah, we'll come over. Let me just let Gemma know and then we'll pack up the kids and head your way."

Over the past five months, Gemma had her baby last month and she and Zayn got together three months before the baby was born.

I hang up and sit down next to Harry. He's leaning over his stomach and I knew that it was another contraction. This one was closer than the ones that he's been having and a slightly longer too. I went to the kitchen and grabbed him a glass of crushed ice.

"It's the only thing you have right now Angel."

He nods and starts to eat the ice. I turn on the radio and try to find something to listen to that will calm his nerves. I know this isn't his first baby but it's his first baby he's going to be able to see and he's beyond nervous.

"Louis, when are they getting here?" He says with pain across his face from his last contraction.

"A few minutes."
