Chapter 1

"Niall!" I called from the living room. That boy has seriously disappeared for an hour now.

I walked into the nursery, seeing that Niall had crawled into the crib with our baby boy. He was snoozing softly as our baby had crawled onto his chest. His chest rose and fell as Luke sucked on his little thumb. I traced Nialls face as his lips parted, small snores leaving his mouth.

"Babe," I whispered softly. "Niall lets go to bed babe."

"What?" He opened his eyes slowly, looking around to take in the dark surroundings. He looked down to see little Luke sleep on his chest. He gently put him in the crib, crawling out. He ran his fingers through his hair. His just waking up face is so adorable.

I began to walk out of the room, getting ready for bed. I pulled the covers to our bed down so I could crawl in. Niall was already laying down, body sprawled as he waited for me to craw in next to him. "Aren't you coming?"

"I'm gonna go check on Hannah." He whined, begging for me to crawl in next to him. "I'll be right back." He gave up, crawling more under the covers.

I walked into the pink room seeing that Hannah was fast asleep in her princess bed. Her blonde hair was sprawled across her face and pillow as she snored loudly. I just chuckled, closing the door softly.

Walking back into our room, I could see that Niall was already fast asleep. Poor baby. I just shook my head, crawling into the spot next to him. My head rested on the 'MRS. RIGHT' pillow that match Nialls 'MR.RIGHT' one that we had gotten from Louis' family for a wedding gift.

I turned off the light, snuggling into the big cover that smelt like home. A couple of minutes passed and Niall has snaked his arm around my waist. "How did I get so lucky?" He whispered into my ear. "Two beautiful kids. My dream girl. How'd it happen?"

"Luck of the Irish," I laughed as I put on my best Irish accent. He chuckled, kiss my cheek.

"Goodnight my love."

"Goodnight my prince." He softly kissed my lips, before snuggling into the crook of my neck.

"Mommy!" I heard the high pitched voice of Hannah say as she ran into the room. "Mommy!"

"Hello honey," I smiled as I pulled Hannah on my lap. "Why are you up so early?"

"One more day closer to Christmas!" She smiled. "Oh I can't wait!" She jumped off of me, running out of the room. Niall laughed, throwing an arm over my waist.

"I better get Luke," I said as I tried to pull Nialls arms off of me. He pulled me back down, kissing my cheek softly.

"Let me do it." He jumped out of bed, walking down towards his room. I smiled to myself as the thought of Niall being amazing.

"Mom!" Hannah yelled running back into my room. "Mommy! Someone's on the phone!"

"Okay okay I'm coming!" I laughed as she pulled me towards the kitchen. I picked up the home phone, holding the device to my ear. As I was doing this, I began to pour Hannah some cereal.

"Carter speaking," I spoke into the phone.

"Carter Horan?" The voice asked. "Hello this is Victoria Rock. Your fathers wife."

"I'm sorry. My father only has one wife and that's Anne," I replied back.

"No no," she rambled. "Your birth fathers."

"What is it?" Hannah had dug into her food as I leaned against the counter. Niall had baby Luke propped on his hip as he walked into the kitchen. He kissed my cheek, putting Luke in his high chair.

"I'm afraid to say you father has passed of a bad heart and I have called to inform you that the funeral is in a week or so," she replied. "I have called Anne and Harry along with Gemma but I would like to know if you would speak." I couldn't wrap my head around the fact my birth dad was gone. "Carter?"

"No. No that's great," I replied with a fake smile. "I'll be there."

"Thank you so much," Victoria replied. "I would be happy to say that your father would be so proud of you." I nodded hanging up the phone.

"Who was that?" Niall asked as I set the phone down gently. "Babe what's wrong?"

"He's gone Niall," I whispered. "My birth dad. He's gone."
