#22 While he is away (his pov) (Part 3)

LIAM:

"LIAM." I groaned when I heard knocking on my door. I slowly got out of bed and opened the hotel room door. "Hey Zayn," I said sitting down on the bed, rubbing my eyes tiredly. "You alright Li?" he asked sitting beside me. I nodded, then looked up at him and quickly shook my head. "Y/N called me last night," I paused, "she couldn’t sleep, the baby was kicking and she sounded so uncomfortable and upset." Zayn wrapped his arm around my shoulders, "I know it’s hard being away from her; both of them, but you will be home soon," he encouraged. I smiled weakly. "How do you do it? I mean, leaving Perrie and your daughter at home?" I asked. He sighed, removing his arm and resting his hands in his lap. "It’s harder now that she’s that little bit older and asks for me. But I love speaking to them both on the phone or Skype. Their smiles make my day," he explained, "Just think, when you get home, it won’t be long until you get to meet little Payne." I smiled at the thought, "Thanks Zayn. It just breaks my heart hearing her like that."

LOUIS:

"You alright Lou?" Liam asked. "You’ve been quiet all day," Zayn added. "He’s probably missing Y/N," Niall teased. I playfully hit his arm, making him hit me back. I felt my phone buzz in my pocket, making me smile. I had been waiting for the past few hours to hear from Y/N about her doctor’s appointment earlier. As I walked away from the boys and pulled my phone out, I saw her name on the screen. I quickly unlocked it to reveal her message. ‘Hey Lou, check out our little lad. He’s gotten bigger! We love you xx.’ My smile grew as I clicked on the photo attached. It was the latest ultrasound. She was right; he had grown, but he is still so small. I touched the screen lightly with my finger in awe of seeing our baby. "Is that him?" Harry asked quietly over my shoulder. I nodded, not trusting my voice. I turned the phone to show Harry the ultrasound photo. He smiled, eyes lighting up. "That’s amazing Lou. I can’t believe he’s growing inside Y/N," he whispered. I smiled and sent Y/N a reply, ‘He’s adorable. I can’t wait to meet him. Love you both. Lou x’

NIALL:

"Here with us now is One Direction. Welcome back boys," the interviewer said, making the audience go crazy. "Thank you for having us," Liam replied, "It’s good to be here," Harry added. I sat quietly between Louis and Zayn, listening to her ask questions. "So congratulations on your latest album," she smiled. "Thanks, we are very happy with it," Louis replied. "We worked really hard on it. We are glad that the fans love it," Zayn added. "And Niall, you’re going to become a dad. Congratulations. How are you feeling?" she asked. I blushed as everyone turned their attention to me. "I’m so excited, I can’t explain it," my smile grew wider, "I still can’t believe that I’m going to be a dad; that Y/N is pregnant. Not long now." The audience awwed at my answer. "And Y/N, how is she? Being pregnant is hard work, let alone carrying twins," she continued. "I know twins, it’s crazy. She is so strong and incredible," I said before Louis cut me off, "Niall does everything he can to make sure she’s comfortable and safe. And makes her feel beautiful."

HARRY:

"Come on come on," I mumbled, pressing my phone to ear. Moments later I got Y/N’s voicemail again. I sighed and left a message, "Y/N, baby, can you please call me? I’m getting worried, you aren’t answering your phone. Please love." I had been trying to call her for the past hour and I’m starting to panic. A million and one thoughts ran through my head, most of them bad. I had to hear Y/N’s voice to make sure she is alright. I quickly dialled Gemma’s number, hoping she was still at Mum’s house with Y/N. After five rings, Gemma answered happily. "Hi Harry," she giggled. "Is Y/N with you? Is she ok? She’s not answering her phone," I rumbled on panicking. She suddenly stopped, "Whoa, slow down little brother. Y/N is fine. We are shopping at the moment," she paused, "I’ll put her on." I sighed in relief when I heard Y/N voice. "Haz," she said softly. "Hey baby," I whispered. "Sorry I didn’t answer my phone. We are out shopping. I brought some nice dresses," she said happily. I smiled, relived that everything was ok. "And a cute little bunny for Spencer."

ZAYN:

"Just go boys, I’m waiting to speak to Y/N," I said, getting annoyed. "Tell Y/N we said hi and hope she and the baby are doing well," Niall added, as he dragged the boys out of the room. I sat at the small table and excitedly waited in front of my computer. Within minutes, the room filled with ringing. "Z," she squealed happily as I accepted the Skype call. "Hi baby," I smiled, "how are you feeling? Is the little one behaving?" She smiled and adjusted the screen a little. "They get really wiggly sometimes; like right now," she placed a hand on her rounded stomach, "and I’ve been craving pancakes again." My smile fell; I wanted nothing more than to be at home with her, to hold her in my arms and feel the little movements of our baby. "Z," she said snapping me out of my thoughts, "I have something to show you." She slowly lifted up a small piece of paper and brought it towards the camera. "28 weeks," she whispered. My eyes traced the photo, hoping to remember every little detail. "It’s perfect baby," I said, tearing up a little.
