Heya guys here's the next chapter of the story, Really hope you like it, Leave me your feedback.
Niall's Pov:
Waiting is all I can do right now, My child is being delivered and I can't even be in there, This wouldn't be happening if it wasn't for me, If I had just been a man and owned up to being the father Zayn wouldn't have gotten so stressed out, Then we wouldn't have argued and then the baby wouldn't have been distressed. For me it felt like everything was going in slow motion, Every second lasted for an hour all I wanted was news, Is Zayn ok? Is our baby ok? All I want is to know what's going on why is nobody telling me anything? Zayn has only just gone eight months is the baby fully developed? Can the baby survive, I should know all this but I don't, A sigh left my lips as I slouched lower into the chair.
"Why are you still here?" Danny asked, I looked up to see him shooting daggers in my direction.
"I have every right to be here" I mumbled.
"You have no right, He wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you" Danny spat, I said nothing. "Well say something!" Danny yelled.
"What do you want me to say?!" I exclaimed.
"Danny leave it man" Anthony said before placing his hand on his chest.
"Zayn's having a c-section because of him!" Danny stated.
"I know but he would have had a c-section anyway! Besides he's eight months pregnant Danny the baby will be fine and if there's any problems the doctors here can help, This could have happened without Niall, He wasn't the only one targeting Zayn, Don't even think of looking at me like that, You need to go get yourself a drink and calm down" Anthony said, Danny rolled his eyes before standing up and leaving the room.
"Cheers" I mumbled.
"I didn't do it for you, I still think your a coward but as much as I hate to admit this, Your here which means you really do care about the baby" Ant replied.
"It's not just the baby I care about" I whispered, Anthony sat beside me.
"You care about Zayn?" He asked, I nodded my head.
"When I found out he was pregnant I felt like it gave me a reason to try with him, The baby was a way for us to connect, And when we started connecting it didn't cross my mind that I'd have to tell anyone I was the father because all that mattered was me, Zayn and our baby" I explained.
"The reality of the situation is you can't be apart of the babys life without admitting your the father, Keeping it a secret isin't fair on Zayn and it won't be fair on the baby as it grows up" Ant said, I nodded my head.
"I'm just scared" I whispered, Ant sighed.
"If you want to be apart of both there lives that fear needs to disappear fast, Because they both need you now, Zayn's had a c-section he won't be able to do any heavy lifting or anything, Your the babys dad and if you care about Zayn the way you say you do then man up" Ant stated before standing up and leaving the room.
I know Anthony's right but it still dosen't change my fear, When it's just Zayn and I nothing else matters, I guess I forget that other people exist, Anthony's words were ringing in my ears, I have to tell people I'm the father, Zayn needs someone he can rely on, He needs to know he can trust me to be there when it really matters. I'd been sitting in the waiting room for a good hour and a half before a doctor finally walked in, My heart was pounding as he spoke to me, Both father and baby are doing well, Relief washed over me as I was assured they were both ok.
"Can I see them?" I asked, The doctor nodded before signalling for me to follow him, I did so with no hesitation, My heart was pounding like it never has before, My palms were sweating, I followed the doctor down the hall until we came to a halt outside a door, I took a deep breath before opening the door and walking in, Zayn was laid down on the bed, I smiled slightly before looking over to see our baby, My eyes widened and a lump formed in my throat.
"Hi" Zayn's voice filled my ears, My eyes began watering.
"H-Hi" I chocked out. "I-Is everything ok? The baby is it ok?" I exclaimed, Zayn nodded his head. "Can I?" I whispered, Zayn nodded his head once again, I slowly made my way over to where the baby was laid, The second I laid eyes on it tears began falling from my eyes.
"It's a boy" Zayn informed me as he slowly sat up.
"Are you ok?" I exclaimed as I saw him struggling.
"Yeah, They've stitched me up and there putting me on pain medication" He replied, I nodded my head before turning my attention back to the baby, He's so beautiful, I can't believe something as perfect as him came from me, I slowly lifted the baby up before supporting his head, The babys eyes opened and I swear all the air in my lungs was sucked out.
"H-He's p-perfect" I chocked out, A small chuckled left Zayn's lips, I looked up at him before making my way over to him. "Is there anything wrong with him?" I questioned, Zayn shook his head.
"No, Nothing major anyway" Zayn whispered, I nodded my head.
"Hello you, I'm your daddy and I'm gonna look after you I promise" I exclaimed as I looked down at my son. "I'm sorry for the fight I-"
"Don't, Just don't think about it right now, We'll deal with everything tomorrow, For now it's just you me and our son" Zayn exclaimed, I nodded my head as Zayn's thumb gently stroked the babys head.
"Your perfect, Both of you" I said, Zayn chuckled softly before slowly laying his head on my shoulder, I looked over to him before smiling, I then felt a pair of soft lips brush against my neck.
"Thank you for not leaving" Zayn whispered.
"I couldn't leave either of you, I've been an idiot Zayn but I'm gonna make this right for both of you" I stated, Zayn nodded his head before slowly placing his hand ontop of mine, I smiled as I looked down at our son, I have to make things right for both of them.
