Author's Note: How are you guys?c:

I was anxiously waiting for One Direction to be announced and as was Chelsea and everyone else I told that Harry would be announcing it today.

“Ladies and gentlemen, One Direction!” I let out a breath I had been holding in since the last person walked off stage and finally, One Direction, “How are you lads?”

“We’re very nervous right now actually,” Zayn admits and I laugh a little, “Especially Harry over here,” he chuckled, wrapping his arm around Harry on the couch and giving him a reassuring smile.

“Does this have to do with those two girls?” she asks, winking and Harry nods sheepishly, “Oh! Excellent! Spill it, Harry!”

Here it goes; we’re enjoying our last moments unknown to the world. Harry sighs and closes his eyes, thinking of how to say it, or maybe even enjoying his last moments of not being known as a boyfriend and father.

“Well,” he bites his lip and sighs again, “This is harder than I thought it would be,” he laughs nervously and the boys chuckle, some doing something reassuring, “I’m just going to say it. Those two girls…the older one is Brooklyn Fife and she’s my girlfriend-“ he gets cut off by the gasps and awes of the crowd for a minute before the chatter dies down, “Gosh, if you guys were surprised by that you might need a minute before this one,” Harry chuckles, everyone is watching him intently, even the boys, “The little girl is Nicole and she’s, well…she’s our daughter,” Harry finally gets out and the crowd reacts even louder, Harry’s face looks relieved and proud he got it out while the boys look just the same.

“A girlfriend and a daughter,” the lady’s face is shocked, “Dear lord, Harry!” she exclaims, laughing and everyone else laughs too, “How old is she?”

“She’s turning 3 in about a month or so,” Harry nods, smiling widely, “I love them both very much. They mean the world to me,” he tells her and everyone awes again.

She asks him a few questions and then moves on to the other boys.

Me: We love you too, babe. Can’t wait to see you soon…

“Mummy, daddy told!” Nikki exclaims, a shocked expression on her face causing both Chelsea and I to laugh.

“It’s fine, Nikki,” I tell her and she simply says ‘oh’ and continues watching her father on the TV

I watch the TV as all the boys talk about their girlfriends while Niall and Liam look at their laps.

“Niall, any girl in your life?” the interviewer asks and he shakes his head no, sadly.

“Well, I’ve got my eye on one but…” he trails off, biting his lip.

I look over at Chelsea who is rocking Marcus and biting her lip as she stared at the TV.

“Care to tell us about her?” she asks, raising her eyes hopefully.

“She’s just perfect,” Niall shrugs, the boys give him knowing looks and he blushes a little, “Everything about her is perfect,” he says, smiling widely but looking down at his lap.

She asks Liam about any girl and he shakes his head no.

“Well, I think the boys of One Direction are getting along with the females of the world rather well!” she exclaims and the crowd cheers, “Lovely, handsome men! To the girls in their lives…congratulations! All gorgeous I bet!” she says, Louis, Zayn, Harry and Niall nod, “Sadly, our time is up and it’s time for these perfect boys to go,” she says, a frown on her face.

I turn to Chelsea who is blushing and biting her bottom lip, “Chelsea Nicole!” I exclaim loudly, she sheepishly looks up at me, “I am, like, 99.9% positive that was about you! You better give that boy a damn chance!”

“Bad word, mummy!” Nicole exclaims and I give her an apologetic look before turning back to Chelsea.

“I will!” she tells me, finally releasing her lip, “I’ll ask him to come over, I’ll send him a text or something. Could you and Nikki go to Harry’s for the night?” she asks.

“Duh!” I tell her as if it’s obvious and she laughs, “Harry should call me soon probably,” I tell her and just then, my phone rings and I pick it up, crossing my legs on the couch and answering with a smile, “You did it!” I exclaim into the phone and I hear him chuckle.

“We finally did it!” he tells me, a smile evident in his voice.

“Hey, can Nikki and I-“ I get cut off my Chelsea’s phone ringing, she mouths Niall to me and I nod, hearing Niall’s voice in the background through my call with Harry, “come over tonight?” I ask.

“Sure princess, I’ll get you when we drop Niall off,” he tells me.

“How did you know Niall was coming over?” I ask, glancing over at Chelsea, “She hadn’t asked him yet,”

“She was going to ask?” Harry asked, confusion clear in his voice, “Niall was going to ask,” he tells me, laughing into the phone.

“Well, I guess it’s settled. Niall is coming here and Nikki and I are going to your place,” I say, laughing into the phone.

“Where are we going, mummy?” Nikki asks.

“Daddy’s later today,” I tell her and she smiles, “What time should you be here?” I ask Harry.

“What time should we be done today?” he asks someone who I hear a faint reply but not catching it myself, “We’ll be there around 5,” he tells me.

“How about dinner?” I suggest.

“First night as a public family, hell yeah,” he chuckles into the phone and I laugh.

“I love you,” I tell him.

“I love you too,” he sighs into the phone, “Shit, got to go, tell Nikki I love her,” he says quickly.

“Mkay,” I reply and I hear the line go dead and I look over to Chelsea who has a smile on her face.

Maybe our strange family is coming together now, maybe even better than ever.
