Worth the Payne

Chapter 14 - I Promise

*1 month later*

Liam's POV

The past few weeks have been so hard. It crushes me that I can't talk to her or wake up to her gorgeous face anymore. I miss that bump too. I think about how much bub has grown every day. I wonder if Kyla knows what she is having, I hoped it would be a little girl because she would have been gorgeous. She would have had her mother's beautiful eyes and gorgeous brown hair. I had been getting a lot of questions about Kyla on twitter and all that. I just replied one simple message: "Sometimes life gets in the way; one day we will get our chance just not now". I got a lot of replies after that but people had to know. No one knows where Kyla is still. We've been trying but she really doesn't want to be found. It's so frustrating because she can come home now. I got called into a meeting with management today; I had missed the past few so I had to go to this one. I found the rest of the boys there and they smiled at me. I tuned out for most of the meeting but I caught one part. We're going on a tour of Europe, yay, not. I suppose it'll get my mind of Kyla. We walked out of the meeting and Niall stopped me.

"Hey mate, we're going to get some food do you want to come?"

"Yeah I'll have some, I need to eat some time".

I followed him in my car and we went to McDonalds. Harry and Zayn came with us but Louis went home to tell El the news.

They kept talking and I kept zoning out until Zayn asked me a question.

"So are you excited Liam?"

"Yes and no."

"What do you mean?"

"Well this way I can distract myself from Kyla and move on but on the other hand, I just don't want to move on. I want her to come back"

Harry put his hand on my shoulder and nodded.

"I know you want her to come back mate, we all do but maybe it's time to move on"

"See now that's just the thing. I'll always hold hope that she'll come back to me one day. She would be 5 and half months by now. I wonder if she knows if it's a boy or girl yet" I smile to myself at the thought of a mini Kyla.

*Kyla's POV*

I don't do much these days. I try to just stay hidden as much as possible in case a fan finds me, posts it on twitter and my hiding spot is revealed. I have to go out today though. I have an ultrasound today and hopefully I get to find out the gender today so fingers crossed. It's so nice to leave this hotel room even though it's beautiful. I finally found a doctor who speaks English properly which is a relief for me.

I walk down to the doctor's surgeon. I managed to get my records sent but I got the doctor to not release anything. I told him I was hiding from an abusive ex and that was all he spoke of it. I was called into the room and greeted by the doctor.

"Morning, how are we?"

"Morning doctor, yeah I'm good. The sickness has stopped and I've been using those breathing techniques to keep my stress levels down"

"Sounds good. Hop up on the table and we can check out little bubba"

I sit on the table and lift my shirt up. He puts the cool gel on my stomach and I flinch a little.

"Now we hope to find the gender today don't we?"

"Yes but if possible could you write it down and put it in this envelope for me? I don't want to know just yet."

"Yeah sure I can do that. Just close your eyes for me"

I do as I'm told and wait for the doctor to tell me to open them back up.

"Well everything is all good and healthy. This is for you"

He hands me back the envelope and helps me off of the table. I thank him and tell him to enjoy his day. I clutch the envelope the entire walk home.

I lay down on my bed and lay the envelope on my belly. It's crazy isn't it? The gender of my baby is in this envelope. This is a moment I thought I'd be sharing with Liam. That thought brings a tear to my eye but I can't help but think about it. I really want to go home. My heart wants to go home. I want the boys, El, him. That's all I want. I can't wait for the day that happens.

*Lou's POV*

I had just told El about the European Tour. She was upset clearly but something else was bothering her.

"El, what else is wrong? I can sense something else is wrong?"

"I don't have anyone to lean on this time. Danielle is gone, Perrie is on promo for the album and Kyla still hasn't come back" She bursts out crying and I hug her.

"I miss Kyla insanely too, I had hoped she'd come back by now but that's a bit hard when no one can tell her it's safe to come back."

In that second I made a promise to myself and to everyone else around me.

"El, I promise you. I'll bring her home, even if it takes me years. She's coming home"

A/N So sorry about the wait guys, i've been so crazy (was my birthday last week plus two sinus infections and the flu in two months) and writers block is horrible. Sorry the chapter is short but i didn't know what else to write. This is kind of a filler chapter but still enjoy xx
