*Katie's POV*

"Look 'Riah, there's daddy!" I say to my daughter, pointing at the TV screen. At Louis in particular.

She claps her little hands, a huge smile on her face.

"So Louis, you're going to have your hands pretty full when you get back from the tour aren't you?" Mke, the interviewer, asks him.

"I am. I mean, I've got my two troublemakers back at home." he says.

"Well, in reality, all of you have at least one."

"And then there's Zayn, the only one who doesn't have a daughter." Liam says.

"Shut u[, Liam!" Zayn tells him.

"What you gonna do about it, Malik?"

"Put you in a lot of pain, Payne!"

Louis busts out laughing at Zayns retort.

"Louis, shut up!" Zayn tells him.

He promptly responds by flicking him off.

"And that right there is your father." I tell my daughter.

My phone starts ringing like crazy then."

"Hello." I say as I answer it.

"Katie, you'll never guess what happend!" Meg yells into her phone.

"What is it?"

"Daniella said her first word!"

"No way! What was it?"

"Papa."

"Niall's going to be so proud of her."

"It just figures that he's in the middle of an interview right now."

"That's why you call him as soon as it's done."

"Oh duh! Why did I not think of that?"

"Because you were too excited about the fact that your daughter just said her first word. But I must ask, were you watching the interview?"

"We were and she just sat there pointing at Niall for a few seconds and then she said 'papa.'"

"He's going to be so proud of her for saying that before mama."

"He is. I gotta go now! Bye!"

"Bye!" I hang up. My cousin, the easily excitable one.

It's been two months without the boys. Two difficult months for me. Taking care of a toddler and a baby is not an easy task. Yeah, the girls help out when they can, but they've got their own kids too. Dani has Olivia and Brayden, Perrie has Aidan, Meg has Daniella, and Ashley has Sydney.

*Louis' POV*

"She said her first word!" Niall cheers going crazy.

"Who did?" Zayn grumbles, not pleased to have been woken up.

"Who do you think?!" I ask him

"What was it?" Liam asks.

"She said papa." he says looking smug. Of course he does, he'd been trying to get her to say papa or something like it for the longest time.

Most kids say something like mama or papa first. Not in Jordan's case, his first word was fishy. Although it sounded more like fissy since he couldn't make the "sh" sound.

"Alright Styles, when's Sydney going to say her first word?" I ask Harry.

"Probably soon. She's almost one." he says.

"Next month she will be!"

"I know this! I also know who's going to be three!"

I know my son is going to be three. I also know that I'm going to miss his birthday and my anniversary. Great husand and father aren't I?

"So, what's Dani going to do for him?" Liam asks jokingly.

"Oh God. Who knows. She spoils him so much." I say.

"But that's the job of godparents." Harry says.

"Quiet Styles."

He's just trying to guilt me into doing something extravagent for Sydney's birthday. I may be her godfather, but I can't do much from the other side of Europe.

So, since the music I was listening to before writng this chapter put me in a depressed mood, I thought I'd tell you all my reason behind naming Louis' son Jordan.

Jordan was the name of one of my classmates I was pretty close to. After being in a small cable class for a year and a half, it's hard to not be close. The class was six people at it's biggest.

On March 1, 2013 he took his own life. I felt empty and sick for the longest time. I could barely look at the classroom where all those good memories with him took place in. When I got that text saying that he was dead, a part of me was hoping that it was some cruel, sick joke. I did not want it to be true. 17 is far too young to die.

I'll always remember making fun of his ridiculous laugh and he would laugh right along with us. He'd always be the one to crack a joke. He was the glue that kept us together.

I've sometimes felt like there was someone in my doorway standing there, but when I look, there's no one there. I know it's him.

Now, I didn't tell you all this for your sympathy. I told this because I just wanted to tell you. Yes I know it hasn't been a year yet, but I do not want any sympathy. But I want all of you who has lost someone,  whether it was suicide or they died of natural causes, it does get better with time. That empty and sick feeling does go away. You will always miss them. Just like I'll always miss Jordan.

If you've taken all this time to read all of that, please comment something, anything. Please, not sympathy. I mean it! But you know, comment something random, maybe 1D related. It doesn't have to be though.

Oh, and this is extremely random, I don't know if you've heard of 5 Seconds of Summer, they're on tour with the boys right now. And their Australian! God I miss Australia, it's been two years since I was there. Two years ago was my first day in Australia, random fact about me there. Anyhow, I can say that my new favorite song is their song Heartbreak Girl. It is amazing. The song is on the side. Maybe your comment can be about that.

Okay, I'm done now.

Je t'aime!

Au revoir my petite croissants!
