I love Harry with all my heart. I want him to be mine and mine only it hurts to think he would never be.

"Zayn, you okay?" Niall asked behind the door.

I was in his bathroom sat on the toilet seat having a moment. "I'm fine." I said drying my wet eyes.

"Are you sure?" He asked again.

"Just give me a minute okay?"

"Can I come in?"

"I said I need a minute, Niall." I replied.

"Okay, but here's the thing, Harry is still holding on the line for you?"

"Tell him I'm busy." I said.

There was inaudible whisperings Niall talking to Harry most likely. After a minute the door opened, Niall peeped his head in, a huge smile on his face. "Hey_"

"No." I glared at him. It was like being at home all over again when my boys would just open the door while I'm in the toilet, sit on the floor and start chattering. "Can I have some privacy please?"

"I thought I'll just come in to give you the phone to talk to Harry_"

"Why for, Niall? I told you I'm busy."

"But you're not doing anything, Zayn_"

"I'm thinking in peace and quiet, that's something to me." I said. "Tell Harry I'm in the toilet doing a dump."

Niall chuckled softly, "Zee, please, hear him out. Harry said it's quite important."

I rolled my eyes, "Ask him what he wants to talk about if it's not about kids I'm not interested. Tell him that."

"He told me it's about the kids." Niall said.

Harry was playing tricks but the worry-nut inside me was slightly panicking in case he was really calling about my babies, I decided to give him a benefit of doubt for my own peace of mind.

I gestured for Niall to come closer then snatched the phone off him, put it on speaker before speaking to my husband. "Harry, what it is it? What do you want?"

"Mom called to say she's not coming today but tomorrow_"

"Excuse me, so your mother is not coming today, so what? Could you not keep that to yourself and had to tell someone and why is that someone had to be me? I thought you were calling about the kids."

"Zayn, this is directly to do with the kids, you said it yourself my mom was gonna help me with Autumn what am I supposed to do now? Our daughter doesn't know me, I don't even know her bedtime routine if she got one at all? Has she got any routine for anything else?"

Harry sounded exasperated I got to admit I'd put too much on his plate and that's unfair on him.

"Harry, relax, babies are like animals and can smell fear." I sighed, "Autumn is a chill baby and don't have specific routines, just feed her, changed her nappy, place her in her playpen which is in the lounge there's lots of toys in there, she plays with that stuff till she tires herself to sleep. When she wakes up repeat it all over again. I bought a baby walker since she started walking, she's used it before and can propel herself forward. She quite loves it actually, so put her on that, let her wander around the room but keep an eye on her obviously so she don't get hurt. Alright?"

"Alright." Harry sighed deeply, I could imagine him running a hand in his hair, "Where's the walker?"

"It's in my room, Harry."
