Chapter 59

~ Louis ~
Now that the tour's over and Brooklyn has been born, Jess and I are able to focus on planning our wedding.
She's been telling me about the little things she's already done, and I keep nodding my head.
I can tell this will truly be a long and stressful project, but I know it'll be worth it all in the end.
"Louis? Are you even listening?" Jess asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Erm...yes?" I said, having it come out closer to a question.
"Then what did I just say?" She narrowed her eyes, studying me.
I sighed, grabbing onto her hand from across the table.
"I'm sorry. I'm just thinking. What were you saying?"
"I'm just saying I've booked a day for me to look for my dress." She said.
I smiled, picturing her in a beautiful gown.
"That's good. Should we start thinking about where we want to go for the reception?"
She nodded, pulling out her notebook and laptop.
That notebook is crucial to planning our wedding.
It will have all the details and if it gets lost, so will the planning.
"I'm not gonna lie, I have looked at a couple places. I still want you to look, though. It's your wedding too. I know the guys don't normally care per se what goes on, but I want to make sure you feel as happy with the plans as I will be."
She's so sweet.
I don't know what I did to deserve her.
"Okay, well, we can check them out and there's also one place I want to see." I said.
She nodded, looking at her phone.
I can't wait for our wedding day.
I want to see her look beautiful and read my vows to her.
I want to see that gorgeous ring on her finger, and then seal our marriage with a kiss.
I don't know how Nina and Niall did this.
"Aw, look at this picture Nina just sent me."
I looked up and Jess held her phone out for me.
Niall was holding Brooklyn, and she was clutching the stuffed giraffe Jess and I got her.
Nina told me she won't put the thing down.
I just love Brooklyn so much.
It makes me so much more excited to have children of my own.
To be able to tuck them in at night, give them little kisses.
Teach them how to play football...
In the meantime, I'll just have to spoil Brooklyn.
"We've gotta have kids soon. It's bad enough my little sister got married before me, and now she has a baby before me." I laughed, but meaning what I said.
"Don't get me pregnant before this wedding. I want to be able to fit in my dress."
I put my hands up in surrender and she giggled.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Tomlinson. I won't do that to you."
She blushed and looked away.
"Not quite yet, Mr. Tomlinson."

~ Nina ~
I was in the middle of feeding Brooklyn, and then Niall walked into the room.
He saw what was going on and quickly tried to walk out.
"Niall." I warned.
He turned back to me and trudged over.
"Please, don't take this the wrong way, but get over it. It's still me. You don't have to act freaked out." I said.
He has a hard time even looking at me.
"Honey, I'm not acting. It's just weird to see her sucking on your, well, breasts."
He shifted uncomfortably across from me.
"It's normal, Ni."
I stroked Brooklyn's cheek, gazing down on her.
I feel so blessed to have her.
She gives me so much hope.
Plus, she just makes everyone feel really happy.
When she was finished, I covered myself again and Niall stood up.
"You gonna go burp her?" I asked.
He nodded and took her into his arms, already having a cloth on his shoulder.
He patted her back softly, walking around the room.
God, I love them.
I can't believe I have my own little family now.
It doesn't seem real.
Things would be so different if Louis hadn't come home that time.
If Niall hadn't woken up in the middle of the night and followed me.
If Louis never went through my phone.
Everything would be completely different.
"Mhm, baby girl. Feeling better?" Niall asked Brooklyn.
He rubbed her back and kissed her head, walking around.
"Daddy is still getting used to having you, but he couldn't be any happier."
I smiled and laid back on the sofa, closing my eyes to just hear his voice.
"You're so beautiful. So beautiful, princess. Mommy gave you such good looks." He whispered. "I can't wait until you have your blue eyes open all the time. I love your smile and little giggles and squeals. And your rosy red cheeks with dimples. You're so perfect."
She really is beautiful.
As soon as I held her when she was born, I could see her beauty.
Niall and I really made a gorgeous daughter.
I can't wait to dress her up in little outfits, sometimes matching mine.
Putting her hair in little pigtails.
It's everything I've seen other moms do, but I never thought about doing it myself.
Honestly, I can't get it out of my head now.
I so desperately want to have that with Brooklyn.
But she's only a little baby right now.
"When you get a little older, I'm going to take you to my shows and you can chill out with Mommy backstage. I'll get you headphones to put on so it's not so loud for you. I'll bring you out on stage with me...if that's okay with Mommy, of course." He chuckled to himself. "Your uncles would be really happy to see you there. They love you very much. You're the first baby in our little band family, so you mean a lot. Hopefully you'll have some cousins and maybe even some siblings if I'm allowed."
It was my turn to laugh at that one.
Niall is always very cautious when it comes to asking about children.
Before Brooklyn, he was very hesitant to ask me, for obvious reasons.
But while I was pregnant he was asking me for more and I just wanted to smack him, but I didn't.
One kid at a time.
I mean, Brooklyn isn't even one month old yet.
Plus, Dr. Konrad didn't give us the okay that we could- interact- again.
I know we'll have another kid if all goes well, maybe sometime next year even.
I'm not sure.
We haven't really discussed how old we want to have Brooklyn be before we decide to have another.
When we think we're both ready to juggle two kids I think.
I looked at my two sunshines when I didn't hear Niall talking, and saw Brooklyn laying still.
"She fell asleep." He mouthed to me.
I nodded and followed him upstairs.
It's her nap time anyways.
Niall and I are getting her on a schedule so things aren't out of whack for her.
I dimmed the lights when we got into her room, then Niall gently cradled her.
"I love you." He whispered, kissing her softly.
He laid her down in her crib, making sure her stuffed giraffe was by her side.
We snuck out of the room, closing the door a little bit.
"She's so perfect." He said, heading back to the living room.
"I know, she's a little angel."
I laid back against him on the sofa, relaxing into his body.
I couldn't help but sigh when I closed my eyes, being able to take a minute for myself.
"Honestly, I never knew being a mum could be this hard. I always thought people would over exaggerate when they talked about how tiring it is." I admitted. "But you, you've got to be exhausted. You're already tired with the band and the traveling and the recording, and now you've got a baby thrown into the mix. How do you do it?"
Niall massaged gentle circles into my temples, his calloused fingertips feeling soft on my skin.
"It's not easy, princess, I know. But before Brooke, I knew that I got to see you're beautiful face at the end of the day. And now, I have two beautiful faces to see, so it makes it slightly easier." He explained.
I smirked and leaned my head back, puckering my lips.
"Kiss me. Mama needs a kiss."
He chuckled but I soon felt his lips on mine, kissing me slowly.
"Mmm, how long do we have to wait?" He murmured against my lips.
"Couple months." I whispered.
He groaned, but continued kissing me for a little.
He's been without for nine months so I understand he's feeling a little needy.
I feel bad, but I'm just not medically ready, nor physically.
"Soon, baby, soon." I reminded him.
He nodded and pulled back, kissing me on the forehead.
"Who do you think it going to have a baby next?" I asked randomly.
His face scrunched up in pure thought.
"Erm, I'd say you're brother. He's the next one getting married. But if not him, definitely Liam for sure." He said.
I hope Louis has a baby next.
I want to be an auntie so badly.
Now I think I realize how anxious he's been to become an uncle.
I was about to say something else, but then I heard a small cry.
"What? We just put her in her crib." Niall said, shocked as to how she could be awake.
"It's okay, it's normal. She's just very active. I'll be right back." I said, walking up to Brooklyn's room.
She was crying in her crib, wide awake.
I picked her up in my arms, shushing her gently.
"It's okay. Mommy's here. You're okay, honey." I whispered, rocking her.
I walked over to the rocking chair, sitting down and moving back and forth.
I began to sing to Brooke quietly, hearing her cries die down.
Her eyes began to close again, so I swiped my index finger over her cheek softly.
"There you go. Mommy loves you." I cooed, kissing her forehead.
I stood up and placed her back in her crib.
As I peered at her, I couldn't help but wonder how my life got to be so amazing.

<><><><><><><><><><>

Okay so I just saw 5sos like an hour ago and oh my god. They. Were. Amazing.
It was technically my second time seeing them because I saw them when they opened for One Direction for WWAT, but it was great nonetheless. I had absolutely no voice and my ears were ringing so badly. It was perfect.

And also some other news, school for me starts in a little less than two weeks, and I have a lot of adjusting to do. I only have to write about two more chapters of this book, being as I already have a few done. So I don't think I'll be too far behind. But I'm really just hoping to mark this as finished before school starts. Then I can move onto finishing a book I have on hold while school is in session. So thanks so much for reading!
