-Angelique-

I was at the park today, with GemGem! She took me because Daddy and Papa have not been no friends no more! They are friends again! Like when sometimes me and my best friend aren't friends and she tells me she's not my friend no more. I tell Daddy and it makes me sad, like Papa was sad.

GemGem said it's time to go home now but I don't want to go home, I made a friend and he was five too!!

But now Gemma says it is late, so that Daddy will get scared if he did not know where I am!

-Harry-

With Niall softly cuddled into my chest, I feel as if we're going to be okay, he is going to get better, I don't want to see him cry any more, it's too upsetting. He fell asleep after crying for something like six hours! Stupid boy, should of woke me up.

I was kind of scared he was really going to hit me, I mean he's still quite heavily built and could knock someone out easily with one hit, so I was shitting myself as one does.

I find it peculiar how he can go from wanting to hit me to cuddling me like I'm going to disappear.

Suddenly, the door swings open and my loud little five year old is back!

"Daddy! Papa!" she says loudly and I shush her and she pulls herself up on to the big bed, she looks at Niall's sleeping face and peers up at me and puts her finger to her lips.

"Shhhh Papa sleeping?" she whispers and I nod.

"He's very tired,but I'm sure he'll be happy to see you, shall I wake him up?" she nods and lays her head down to snuggle into my other shoulder, forcing my arm around her small frame, she looks directly at Niall waiting for him to wake up, "don't be too loud okay? Whisper to him,2 I say to her and feel her nod against my shoulder and chest, she's on half of each.

"Ni, wakey, wakey! Angel is here to see you," I gently shake him and he groans and falls back to sleep instantly.

Angel decides for herself that that isn't happening and she slaps his arm, quite hard actually.

"Angelique Rose Styles-Horan! You do not hit people! Especially not your Papa!" I scold her, using her full name, so I know and she does, that she's in trouble and she shrinks back.

"Hey! What was 'hat for?" Niall mumbles and rubs his arm softly.

He opens his eyes and glares at our daughter, "I'm sorry Papa! I-I- you didn't w-wake up! Thinked you was pretend sleeping!" she says and I try to fight off my smile at how cute she is.

"It's okay Angie," Niall uses her other but rare nickname, "I'm okay, but you have to kiss it better!" he says and she leans over me and presses a soft kiss on Niall's arm.

"Love you Papa," Angel says softly.

Niall peers up from my shoulder at our daughter who's lying across from him, "love you too sweetheart," he yawns.

"Okay, baby, I will put Papa to bed and I can come and make you some... toast?" Angel nods frantically at my offer and giggles as I say I'm putting Niall to bed.

"Night night Papa, sleep tight!" she says softly to him and he smiles when she kisses his head softly, she runs off, probably going downstairs to wait for me to make her some toast.

I look down at Niall and he smiles.

"Shout me if you feel upset or anything okay? And remember I love you," I remind him and he nods.
