Lifesaver (A Zarry fanfic)

35. Little Legs

Zayn's POV

"It's been a while." Jessie shrugged, yawning as I pulled her pants onto her body. Her belly had gotten so big, she sometimes can't even hold herself up. "Zayn, I'm tired."

"I know babe, but we have to see how Pudding is doing." Jessie smiled lightly and stood up, slipping her feet into her flats. "It's quite chilly out."

"Alright." She yawned again, grabbing her jacket from the closet. "Can we bring crackers?" Jessie asked lazily, pulling on her jacket.

"Sure." I chuckled, pulling sone strands of hair out her face as I made a bun.

"Guess who's coming with us today!"

"Cynthia, o-or Liam."

"Jason!" Jessie gasped and hugged her belly, smiling.

"My dad's going to see Pudding!!" She clapped excitedly, at least that woke her up.

"You're such a daddy's girl." I chuckled, walking with her to the car.

"You say it like it's a bad thing."

"It's cute." Jessie rolled her eyes as we drove off. "Anyways, have you scheduled any yoga classes?"

"You have to go with me."

"What?" I groaned.

"You don't have to, but it'd be nice if you did. Besides, how will I know I have your full support if you can't even pretend the baby is coming?"

"You do have my support and you know that."

"Why are you getting annoyed?"

"It's just.. unmanly. I'm becoming a woman being near you so much."

"You're becoming sane. At least you're preparing! Most guys our age would've left the girl once they found out she was carrying their baby. I see it on tv and it's quite sad. Even the couples that seemed the happiest started to hate each other."

"You don't think that'll happen to us, do you?"

"I hope not." She sighed, rubbing my knee. "I don't like fighting with you. I'm glad you've been able to put up with my mood swings."

"I find it funny when you start complaining over small things."

"I don't find it funny!" She spat.

"And when you yell out of no where!" I laughed as Jessie crossed her arms. As we pulled up to the building, she squealed at the sight of her father. Jessie threw off her seatbelt and rushed over to Jason, hugging him tight. I chuckled and hopped out the car.

"Hello Zayn!"

"Hey Jason." He shook my hand. Jessie pulled away from her father and grabbed hold of his hand.

"C'mon daddy!"

"Someone's excited." He chuckled as we walked inside.

"Oh she's always this hyper."

"Ah, Jessie!" Patty walked in from the hallway, giving her a hug. "If you guys can wait a few minutes, I need to get my equipment." Jessie nodded and sat on the couch beside the desk, looking up at Jason. He simply smiled at her but she looked away quickly.

"Is something wrong honey?" He sat beside her as I kneeled in front of her.

"It's just mum, I wish she was here." Jessie sighed, fiddling with her jacket.

"She'll come around baby." I smiled, rubbing the back of her hand.

"But what if- Daddy!" Jason turned his head quickly. "I know she talks about my baby, and not about nice things."
