Honestly this is probably the worst chapter I have done, but it was just a quick write up because i felt like i needed to write something up for you all to read. Thank you for reading this book even though i haven't been uploading lately. Please leave feedback in the comments section :)


"Mumma" I hear Atticus say as he pulled on my hand "yeah baby?" I ask as I look down at him "cawwy?" He asked as he put his hands up in the air. I look around to see we were heading into the busier part of the mall so I thought it would be best to carry him, so i bent down a little bit and lifted Atticus into my arms. "fanks" Atticus mumbles as he digs his head into my neck.

It was a little after 8 on a Saturday morning and we were just at the mall doing a little clothes shopping since it was going into winter and we both needed some new clothes, especially Atticus. We had already shopped for me so we just needed clothes for Atty.  "Mumma?" Atticus questions softly "Yeah?" I ask as I lift him a little higher on my hip since he was slowly slipping as I walked through the slightly crowded hallway.

"when daddy come home?" the young boy asked with a sad tone. It's been six months since Niall left for tour and the only times Atticus gets to see his father is on face time at least once a day which has been tough because it's pretty much always when Atty goes to sleep, so i have to put up with the child whining all day long until it's bed time and then he doesn't want to go to sleep.

"He's coming home soon babe" I say with a small smile on my face, because what Atticus doesn't know is, tonight we are going to a concert, to see his daddy perform. Tonight is the last night of the tour which means Niall is finally home.

After two hours of shopping we finally made it home and I carried the passed out Atticus into the house and upstairs into his bedroom where I tucked him into his brand new race car toddler bed before walking back downstairs and out to the car before bringing in all our shopping. Once it was all inside i shut and locked the door.

Just as I thought it was over I heard a small bark coming from the laundry room where Buddy the puppy was locked away. I head down the hallway to the laundry and open the door, immediately the little puppy ran out and started jumping up at me. "Hey boy" I say as I reach down a pat him on the head. "Want to go outside?" I ask the puppy who happily yelped. I chuckle and lead the puppy to the backdoor where I open it before letting him out and shut the door behind him.

Buddy didn't seem to care that i shut the door and continued to roll around in the plush green grass. I roll my eyes at the dog before heading upstairs with all the shopping and walk into my bedroom where I offload the bags onto my bed and begin putting all my things away.

"Atticus keep them on your ears" I tell Atticus who tried to take the earmuffs off of his head. "Mumma" Atticus whined "No atty" I say making him huff. We were currently being led to the front of the stadium where Niall saved our seats. I told him that we could just stand backstage but he wanted the best seats in the house just for us.

I knew it was going to be very loud so i purchased the best noise cancellation headphones I could find and put them on Atticus. "thank you" I say to the guy who lead us to our seats "No problem" he said before walking off to help some other people. I sit down in the seat that was mine and moved Atticus so he was seated in the one beside me. We got here quite early in hopes that Atticus could see Niall before the show but It doesn't seem like that was going to happen.

Even though we got here about 2 hours before the warm up act was going to start the stadium was pretty much packed already. "Hi" I hear someone say to my right "hi" I say giving the young teen girl a smile. "Are you Charlie?" I raise an eyebrow before nodding my head "Yes?" I say in confusion. "omg" She whispered to herself. "Is this yours and Niall's son?" She asked pointing to Atticus who was busy playing with the strings to his skinny sweatpants.

"Yeah, this is Atticus" I say "He is so adorable" she said with a smile on her face "thank you" I say with a slight chuckle, After a little bit we took some photos before the girl who's name was Emma had to go back to her seat. After that time seemed the speed by and before I knew it the concert was half over. As soon as the lads came onto the stage Atticus tried to climb over to barrier to get to his dad, so i had to grab hold of him so he wouldn't.

Niall and all the other lads had already waved to Atty who has been crying because he wants to hug Niall. Right now the lads are having a short break where they are just talking to the crowd and I can see that Niall is slightly coming closer and closer to us. Niall gives me a pleading look and I know he wants to take Atticus onto the stage to introduce him to his fans and I nod my head which makes him stop in his place and gives me a really? look.

I nod my head again making him smile. Niall walks over to the edge of the stage where one of the security guys stood and said something to him before he stood back up. "I'm about to do something but can everybody please promise to keep calm and as quiet as you can" Niall asked the crowd and they responded by screaming back. "Okay, quiet now please" Niall said just as the security guy walks over to me.

I move Atticus' earmuffs slightly so he can hear me "Want to go to daddy?" Atty instantly nodded his heads so i fixed his earphones and passed him over to the guy. If this was a normal circumstance Atticus would begin to cry if I passed him over to a random guy but since he was going to see his daddy he was perfectly fine with it.

I watch as Atticus is passed to Niall who was bending down on the stage and as soon as Niall stood up with Atticus in his arms the crowd went berserk. I smile as Atticus wrapped his arms tightly around Niall probably stopping the airflow to Niall's lungs in the process and from here I could tell the young boy was crying. "can everybody please settle down?" Niall asked the crowd, and with the help of the other lads the crowd settled down heaps. There was just the occasional squeal.

Niall soon knelt down on the floor after saying something to Atticus and placed our boy on the ground beside him. "Everybody, I'd like you to meet Atticus James Horan"
