Reagan POV
Over the next couple of days, we didn't do much. Because of Harry and Zayn getting arrested, we decided to lay low for a little bit. Emily was getting the operation done tomorrow, and Niall was worried. It was her best option, but there were still possible complications.
"She'll be fine. Stop worrying.”
Louis kept trying to reassure him, but he wasn't listening.
"Niall, come on.”
Zayn stood from where he was sitting beside me.
"What?"
"You and I are going to go out.”
"No", Niall said, "I need to go to the hospital.”
"And, do what?” Zayn asked him, "Sit around and wait for them to prep her for surgery?"
"Yeah...” Niall trailed off.
"No, you're not doing that. Emily doesn't want you to mope around for her. Enjoy your freedom now because when she's better, she'll be released from the hospital. Then, you'll want to spend all of your time with her. So, let's enjoy this now.”
"Yeah, enjoy your time now before the old ball-and-chain gets out", Louis said.
I threw a pillow at him, and he just laughed.
"Come on", Zayn said, "Come out. I'll even invite the rest of the boys.”
"Fine", Niall said after a minute, "I'll go out for a couple of hours, and then it's straight to the hospital.”
"I can't go", Liam said.
"Why not?"
"I need to watch Aiden. He can't go out to a bar with us.”
"I'll watch him", I said pulling my hair into a ponytail.
"I couldn't ask you to do that.”
"You don't have to. I didn't want to go anyway. I don't drink.”
"Really? Why do we keep you around?"
Liam ignored Louis's comment and continued.
"Are you sure, Reagan? He's a lot to handle.”
"He's 2, Liam.”
"He'll be 3 soon.”
"I can handle it.”
"I don't want you here by yourself", Zayn whined adorably.
"She won't be.”
I turned around to see Louis also stand up.
"I'm on parole, and I can't drink. I'll stay here with the both of them.”
Aiden was in Harry's room talking his ear off. I could hear him from all the way out here.
"Then, it's settled. Liam, go get Harry and say goodbye to your child. Let me go change my shirt, and I'll be ready to leave.”
Zayn disappeared into our room. Within a few minutes, Zayn was kissing me on the forehead and they were all heading out the door.
"Unc Lou and Aunt Reat, le's hab fun!"
"Reat?", I asked looking at Louis.
"He can't say Reagan, and he hears Zayn call you Keating. He combined the two into something he could say and got 'Reat'. Horrible nickname, but hey. If the kid can pronounce it, that's fine.”
I shrugged and smiled at Aiden.
"Sorry, kid. Aunt Reagan is going to have fun. I'm going to sit here and play FIFA", Louis said.
