The Journal (Louis Tomlinson/One Direction FanFiction)

Chapter 23-Choose From The Hat

***ELEANOR POV***

I woke up cuddled next to Louis. My face was softly rested in his chest. I slowly inched my way out of our position so I could see his face. He had a faint smirk plastered on his lips and his eyes were softly closed shielding his deep blue eyes. Though the soft expression left as his lips fell flat and he started to twitch around, indicating his dream turned into a nightmare in the blink of a eye.

He bolted awake faster than I could react. He looked around the room frantically, before his eyes focused on me and he calmed down.

"Hey babe, it's ok." I said as I pulled him into a hug, he looked stressed out just from that short time in the dream he had.

"What did you dream about?" I asked him after he was more relaxed. He ran his fingers through his hair, bit his finger nails then dropped his hand back down, his nervousness was clearly showing.

"It's ok Louis, just tell me what happened." I assured and commanded him. He seemed so worked up about it, and right now is a time where I have to know what his bad dreams are so we know if we are putting to much overwhelming information on him. He ran his fingers through his hair, bit his finger nails, then dropped his hand back down, his nervousness was clearly showing, and I didn't know if I wanted to hear the dream, because it could be to painful for him to talk about, but something else told me that I had to know, because it would help with everything he was go through.

"It was a dream about you, and me, and our baby." He spoke, I didn't want to stop him, because the sooner he was done talking the less amount of time it will take listening to it. "We had a daddy's little girl, I watched her grow in that dream, all the way to sixteen. We named her Delilah, because everyone wanted to name her so they wrote down names and put them in a hat, Danielle put Delilah in there and we pulled that one out. Well the dream was perfect except for the end. We were grocery shopping and Delilah came along, she left us to go pick out a couple bags of chips. After a few minutes we weren't really worried about her because it takes her awhile on making choices on stuff like that. Well then we heard a girl scream 'daddy' the first person who came to mind was our baby. We started running to where the scream came from, and sure enough we found Delilah with Hannah's father and a gun pointed at her. We froze at the sight not sure of what to do. He told you to come up next to him, you knew it was to save your daughter so you did so, I didn't want you to go but you refused and walked over there anyways. He grabbed your arm, I was going to try and get you both, but he would shoot Delilah if I did. I didn't move because I didn't want anyone hurt. He told me I broke his daughters heart now he was going to stop my daughters heart. He pulled the trigger and Delilah fell to the ground. Then he moved the gun to you, I had to use all of my strength to not run over to our little girl, but if I did you would die with her, and I didn't want any of you let alone both of you pass. He said that I broke his daughters heart now he was going to shatter mine. He pulled the trigger on you, then himself." He finished, his dream he had, I was in tears, but I wiped them away quickly.

"Louis, look at me, me and your baby are right here. You are overwhelmed and just need a day to relax." I reassured him, he nodded. He pulled me closer to him and set me on his lap. I turned myself so I was facing him, and my legs were wrapped around him. I planted a soft passionate kiss.

I took in everything about him at that moment. His soft brown hair, his touch, the way he always made me smile just because I was able to call him mine. He was going through alot, but he still was strong, we never reached him to his breaking point. He forgot me, but remembered, so I could still do this with him.

"Louis?" I asked, our heads were leaned on one another, and my eyes were closed.

"Hmm?"

"I think we should have our friends choose, like in your dream." I suggested, I think it would be nice to have one of them choose, I mean we can always name our other kids if we have more kids.

"Yeah I guess we could do that. I think it would be fun." He agreed, I started to get excited, I wonder what some of the names will be. Hopefully they will be creative, I like names that are unique, not like Bob or something.

"Yay!" I cheered

***LOUIS POV***

I was sitting on the really comfortable chair in the livingroom, while Camilla, and El were sitting on the couch. I do honestly prefer the chair, it's all fluffy and soft. I fell asleep on it once, and I woke up without any problems.

We were all waiting for everyone, Eleanor texted everyone one to meet them here, even Camilla, just because... she felt like it.

"Why did I have to move all the way into the livingroom? I had to walk all the way from the kitchen, where I was finding more things to eat, like WTF, you two just ruined everything." Camilla explained, it's a wonder how she is so skinny for how much she eats, her and Niall both.

"Sorry, but we have something really important to talk to you all about." Eleanor tried to reason, although, Camilla didn't seem so amused.

"El, we all know your pregerz, it didn't stay a secret for long." Camilla told her, it was one of those things were how she said it was funny, but you didn't want to laugh at it, or it would ruin the moment.

"Yes, we know, but we aren't talking about that." I just realized how much these two will talk. They will either talk so much that they wont shut up, or they wont say anything at all. Hmm...

A couple seconds after that, I heard a click of the door, and in came Danielle and Stephanie flying in here, out of breath. I curiously looked at them before Liam and Harry ran into the room, out of breath aswell. I heard Liam and Harry mumble a few words before Steph and Dani started cheering about how they won or something. Liam started arguing with the girls, but Harry made a face of realization, then peered out the door way.. once he saw what was out there he busted out laughing. Once the three that were arguing noticed Harry's laughter they all looked out to see what was so funny. I began to get curious, but didn't feel like getting up. I saw Niall dragging Zayn into the room, because Zayn was to lazy to walk. Niall set Zayn down in the middle of the livingroom and just left him there. Everyone was laughing, but me, and apparently it was noticeable that I didn't feel to cheerful.

"Hey Lou, you ok?" Stephanie asked me with a little of concern.

"Yeah just a little stressed." I answered her honestly, that is what really was getting at me I was just a little stressed out, mostly about that dream, I shouldn't let it get to me though, it was just a nightmare.

"Yeah I understand," she told me, "but all you got to do is relax, just let everything that you are dealing with go, then come back to it."

"Yeah, guess so, thanks." I told her, maybe I should just relax for awhile.

"You two aren't even a couple and you cuddle more than me and Liam do." Danielle shouted, I heard some snickering which came from Camilla, El, and Steph. I turned my head to see what she was talking about. I saw Harry laying on Zayn like he was a pillow.

"Just shut up, and tell us why we are here." Harry said with annoyance in his voice, but everyone knew it was just an act, he was fine.

"Well, you all know that I am carrying my little bundle of joy that is more like a pain in the arse right now. So well we want you peeps to have a chance on naming him or her." Eleanor smiled as she explained to them.

"And what if we don't want to?" Harry asked, which was a bad idea, he just poked the bear.

"Then I will shove your piece of paper down your throat, cut off your hand and use it to take out the paper, then sow your hand back onto your forehead." Eleanor warned, we all scooted back in fright. Eleanor giggled and handed out pieces of paper to be draw from a hat.

"Write a boy name and a girl name then put it into the hat." I explained to them, they all tried to keep their frightened faces, but got distracted, by the names.

After a few minutes all of the notes were in the hat. We mixed up the names in the hat before Eleanor let me draw. I felt around in the notes before I got the one I thought would be the best one. I read aloud...

Note-

Girl- Elounor

Boy- Lewis
