Dates, Dreams and Diapers

Chapter 13

A/N: Hi there! So...a lot of you didn't seem to catch onto my idea of who the intimate stalker on Niall was, and I don't blame you guys. I suck at giving hints. So, long story short, its Harry. Louis went on in a respectful tone about how Niam is too cute to break up or put anyone else in the equation, Zayn spoke of Niall like a brother and Harry looked up his dress. So yeah, expect Harry to meddle with things a bit as well as other people and situations. Toodles!

Liam's POV

I look down to see a small baby sleeping peacefully and can't help but feel the tears coming before I even left. Today the tour starts, and Niall and I couldn't be more sadder. Half a month away from our baby boy to do shows around Europe will probably be the most hardest thing I will do in life.

I don't know how I'm going to survive!

"Liam...are you ready?"

Niall comes through the door with a hesitant voice. His mother, Maura, followed him and gives me a reassuring smile and for good reason. Maura had come back to England to look after Jack while Niall and I go on tour around the world. Both Niall and I made a big fuss about leaving Jack behind with Maura until they come for a visit; they will come when we get a few days off after half a month has been up. I now think the idea is a good one for the reason that one of the boys to be coming to pick us up and drive us to the airport. Niall and I are one the verge of tears as we huddle close while looking down to our little bundle of joy in the crib. Finally the time comes when we hear the front door open and close with the sound of Harry's voice calling out for us.

"Can you do it?" Niall asks shakily. I only nod numbly as I reach down and gently shake Jack awake. The baby then stirs and opens his radiant blue eyes that match Niall's. Picking him up and pulling him close to my chest, Jack then nuzzles close and simply stares up and me, Niall and then Maura. Niall caress our son's face and places a gentle kiss on his forehead as he allows his tears to flow, I try my best to hang on a bit longer. To hear Niall cry, is the most heartbreaking noise ever...

"We love you so much Jack, and hopefully one day we won't have to leave like this." Jack's young mind easily processes this and begins to squirm in my arms.

"Don't worry baby, we'll be home soon." I say just as I give Jack over to Niall for a long hold and a few quiet whimpers come from both of them. My heart then shatters when we give him over to Maura and he begins to cry loudly while his grandmother tries to sooth our son. I hold Niall's hand tight as we make our way down the hallway, down the stairs and out the front door.

I then let the tears come once we are inside Harry's car and hold onto Niall close. My pathetic sobs coming out in chokes as Jack's little tear-stained face flashes in my mind.

"I take it that it goodbyes didn't go so well." Harry looks to us from his mirror with a sad look. He then drove the three of us to the airport, Niall and I both not really being all that quiet with our blubbering, but almost nothing could sooth this separation with Niall and I's child; and the knowledge that all Jack wanted right now, was for his daddies to come back home.
