Living with One Direction (Hariana)

-113-: Birth of Dylan

Today was a girls day with Alexandria, but Eleanor and Cheryl while the boys were running some errands, so you decided to go to Oxford Street for some shopping. Perrie was planning on joining but due to commitments with Little Mix had to cancel. Ariana was 8 and a half months along so walking long distances were proving harder and harder each day, but a trip to Oxford Street never harmed anyone...

Alexandria was beyond excited after Ariana had told her that she'd buy her two things of her choice. She already had a room full of toys, and honestly, didn't need anymore, but she was sulking until Ariana said she'd buy her something, but Harry had another idea...

Tell her that she was to get everything she wanted. Good one Styles... Thankfully she didn't really bother about a lot of things seeing as she had most of them or it was similiar to ones she had.

"Mama! I want this!" she squealed looking at the polar bear pillow. She was still loving polar bears and you took the pillow off of her. Eleanor and Cheryl were next door in Starbucks getting us some drinks while Ariana took Alexandria into the store she was insisting on.

"Okay, let's go get Auntie El and Auntie Cher," Alexandria nodded happily holding the pillow happily in her arms. They both walked into Stabucks and spotted the two girls at a booth walking over instantly. Once Ariana placed Alexandria into the booth, Ariana slid in.

Ariana was sipping on your Passion Tea Lemonade when she suddenly felt a tightness take over her stomach. It had been happening all morning so she just rubbed it firmly, and tried to get away with it, but El noticed.

"Hey, are you okay babe?" Ariana nodded, smiling. The tightness had left.

"Just a few Braxton Hicks is all," Ariana smiled reasuringly and she nodded, but she wasn't quite convinced. After Alexandria had finished her steamed milk with a pump of vanilla, it was time to leave. Ariana picked up her still-half-full cup, took Alexandria hand, helping her out of the booth and walked out of the coffee shop.

"Let's go in here," Ariana nodded at Cheryl as she pointed to the baby store. There was no doubt, by this point, the Braxton Hicks were getting stronger. But she was still convinced that they were only Braxton Hicks. Nothing more.

After the baby store, Ariana went to a couple of more stores and then she had to face the truth. They weren't Braxton Hicks. She was in labor.

"El, Cher?" Ariana shouted from where they were walking in front of her. They spun around and see her clutching her stomach. "I'm in labor," They started to panic and Ariana laughed before another contraction hit.

"Okay, you call Harry while we walk to my car and we'll meet him at the hospital," Cheryl spoke hurryingly while picking Alexandria onto her hip and helping Ariana walk to her car.

"What's happening?" Alexandria asked curiously and Ariana smiled up at her.

"Your baby brothers coming," Ariana smiled excitedly. She returned the gesture and clapped her hands.

"Okay, Harry will meet us there," Eleanor spoke and Ariana nodded.

Surprisingly, Ariana wasn't scared or nervous. She was excited. And the pain was bad, but it wasn't unbearable yet. And she had positive thoughts, with Alexandria, she was a first time mother, so she was terrified. But now with Dylan, she was calm and collected. she had been reading up and apparently positive thoughts give her an easier, less painful labour.

"Hello my friends!" Ariana called to Harry and his band who were sitting in the hospital waiting room when Ariana arrived. They all looked at her confused. Why wasn't she doubled over in pain, crying? Ariana was thinking positive thoughts, that's why. She also had Alexandria here to distract her from the pain and remind her what she was getting out of this whole process. A tiny little baby boy that her and Harry made together.
