Ch. 19
"Yes"
*Claire's POV*
*next morning*
I walked to the kitchen and made hash browns, bacon, toast and pancakes. I finished
and place them on four plates, one for me, one for Addie, one for Ashton and a giant
plate for Niall. Ashton is still sleeping so I went into the family room. Niall and Addie
were sitting on the couch watching a football game. Knowing Niall when it is an intense
moment in any game he will roll up his sleeves, rub his hands together or mess with his
hair.
"I have that mark to!" Addie says.
She rolls up her sleeve and shows Niall the same birth mark is on her arm.
"Ya, you do," he tells her.
"Why do you have the same one as me, mommy said no one has the same birthmarks
unless their mommy or daddy has it."
With that I felt like it was time to tell Addie Sean wasn't her real dad. I slowly walk in
front of the couch and knell down carefully trying no to hurt my knee again. I look into
Niall's eyes, I can tell he knows what's going on. He nods his head and get on the floor
right next to me. He starts rubbing my back and I take a deep breathe before I tell her.
What if she doesn't like Niall? What if she freaks out? What if she thinks her whole life
is one big lie? We're going to find out.....
"Addie, me and Niall have something to tell you,"
"Your getting married?" she asked suddenly.
"No sweetheart, we're not getting married" Niall piped in.
"Than what is it?" she asked confuse.
"Niall is your real dad," I finally let it out.
We sat there and waited for her reaction. Her blue eyes got bigger. She just sat there. I
don't think she know what was happening or how to react to this. If I was four and
found out my mom's best friend was my real dad I don't know what I would do.
She jumped off the coach and hugged Niall. She placed her head on the his shoulder. He
held her tight. When she pulled away she asked Niall
"Should I call you Niall or Daddy?" she asked confused.
"What ever you want to call me is fine with me," Niall tells her, giving her the choice to accept what we just told her or giver time to let it sink in.
"I want to call you daddy," she finally says.
Niall had a huge smile on his face. I don't think anything could wipe it off. I went over
and hugged both of them. When we were in the middle of the hug I felt something poke
the back of my knee. I turn around and see Ashton smiling. He was holding a shark
and had on his toy story pjs. He made this cute little pouting puppy dog face. His hands
were placed on his hips and his acting sassy like Louis.
"How come I don't get to be in the hug?" he asked.
Now he is crossing his arms making this duck face/ pouting face. I could help but laugh
at his cuteness. I open my arms and he comes running in for the hug. I hold him
tight. I know I didn't give birth to him, but he is still MY little boy. We all have one big
bear hug. Niall has his arms around my waist. Ashton is wrapped around my leg and
Addie is on Niall's leg.
"One big happy family, I still want it to grow but if we stop here that's fine if we
have six more its fine, I will love everyone one, even if they don't have my eyes."
I giggle at the Niall for saying that. The only thing he has really ever loved about
himself was his eyes, me I hate my eyes they're this ugly brown. We all unwind of the
hug, Ashton walks to the kitchen and got him breakfast and he sat at the island and ate.
He was adorable. I felt Niall wrap his arms around my waist. I bent my head back to
see is eye light up. He kisses my forehead. He turned me around so I was facing him.
He looked right into my eyes and asked me a simple question....
"Claire will you be my girlfriend...again?" he asked nervously.
"Yes," was all I could say because in all honesty that's what I want to be.
