Ch. 13

Papers

*Claire's POV*

I'm going to have another child. A little boy. Aston. Ashton is going to be mine and

Niall's little boy soon. The lady at the hospital gave us the number of the foster home

Ashton would be at. I called the number and they gave us the address.

Niall and I drove over and started to fill the paper work. I felt so happy giving this little boy a

new home and Addie will now have a little brother. This is the first time I have felt

excited to do something since Sean passed. Sean would be proud of me and Niall.

"Umm Claire....." Niall tries to get my attention.

"Ya Niall what wrong?" I asked him.

"What do we put in this blank," he asked me with this pensive look on his face.

Niall is pointing to a blank on the paper work that say 'your relationship'.

"What should we put because if we put friend down it would sound weird because best

friends adopting a little boy," I reason.

"We can put 'in a relationship'," said Niall.

"But were not," I tell him giving him a confuse look.

"We can be," he says like if its nothing.

"Claire will you be my girlfriend?" he spits out all nervous and shy.

"Niall, Sean just died and I don't think I'm ready yet and we have to think about Addie

and Ashton now," I tell him.

"So that's a maybe?" he asked with a disappointed yet checky grin.

"We can put dating, maybe in a few months we can, I'm just not ready right now," I reason with him.

"It's okay, I understand," Niall tells me looking me in the eyes.

"Thank Niall your a good friend."

"No problem Claire, lets finish up the paper work and get home and tell Addie"

Niall and I finish the paper work up and start to head home. I was excited for tomorrow.

We get to bring Ashton home. Niall's house only has four rooms which is small

compared to the other lads, but we will make it work. We'll redo two rooms one for

Addie and one for Ashton.

Addie is still at my moms house and still doesn't know that Sean's gone, I will tell her

in the morning. When we finish the rooms they looked nice. Addie's was princess

themed and Ashton's was sports themed. I waked to the guest bedroom to sleep. This

was going to be home soon, I didn't know how Addie was going to react.

We lived in an apartment, so I was small maybe she will like the change. She gets her

own room but she also gets a new brother. She would be leaving everything she knows.

I hope she knows this is what's best of her.

*Claire's POV*

*next morning*

I wake up to the smell of pancakes, bacon and eggs. I walked down stairs and saw Niall

cooking. He was wearing a 'kiss the chef' apron. I was cute. Once it was ready, we finish breakfast and got ready to start the day.

We head to the car and drove to my moms to get Addie. By the time we got

there she was already up and ready to go.

I knock on the door and waiting for an answer. The door cracked opened and a little dirty

blonde head pops out and ran out to hug me.

"Mommy! Can we see daddy now?" Addie asked which makes my heart drop.

"Addie come here," I walk to the bench on the front pouch and set her on my lap.

"Addie do you see the sky?" I ask pointing to it.

"Yes," she replies confuse.

"Well that's where daddy is," I tell her with tears in my eyes.

"He's coming back right?" she asked innocently.

"No he's not coming back," my voice breaks and I feel devastated for having to tell that to my princess.

She jumped off my lap and ran. She ran as fast as she could. She ran I chased after her

but Niall stopped me.

"Let me talk to her," he tells me.

Niall stated to walk to where Addie ran.

* Niall's POV *

I walked over to where Addie ran. She ran to the backyard. There was a little fountain

there. There was a little head I walked over to and bent down to her level. Iput

my finger on her chin and tilted her head up. Her blue eyes were red and puffy. Tears

are streaming down her rosy cheeks. I take my thumb and wipe them away. She stands

up ad hugs me. I hold her close. I don't want to let go.

"Niall," her voice is shaking.

"Yes princess?" I asked in a low voice.

"You're not going to go away are you?" she asked me with concern.

"No, I'm not in staying here with you and your mommy," I promised her.

"Can you pinky promise me something?" she asked me.

"Anything Addie"

"Promise you won't take mommy away like they took away daddy," she tells me, which hits home.

"Promise," I tell her, thinking about what she just told me.

She hugged me even tighter. I'm rubbing little circles on her back. We stay like this for

a while. I think because Addie felt safe for once. Her dad was just taken away from her.

She will be leaving her house where she grew up and is getting a new brother. That's a

lot of new things for me to take in yet alone a four year old. She was brave, very brave

and has a lot of strength and courage. She will become a very strong little girl.
