Niall's POV

 

The loud wail that has erupted from Cici took my by surprise as she sat by her suitcase and started shaking feverishly. The look of pure pain, and terror on her face hits somewhere deep down in my stomach as she starts crying, I hear everyone out in the living room start to get u and walk toward the sound of the cry. Reacting on impulse and instantly I'm over by her side within seconds, and she is in my arms clutching onto my arm as I wrap her small body into my own and lift her onto my lap gently. Her head is buried in my neck as she cried harshly and soon her cries are changed into sobs that wrack her body. Rubbing her back soothingly I speak gently to her in hope s to calm her down, “Hush babe, your safe. Whats wrong?” I ask her gently and she shakes her head, I can feel her body relax only slightly but she pulls away and walks to her suitcase and she pulls out something that looks like a box, walks over and dispenses it on my lap. I dont do anything with it, but I look up at her as she stands there with her green eyes watery and tear filled, her full lips turned into a frown instead of that easy going smile she normally held, or so I know she holds a lot around me. Giving me the faintest smile she nods gently and spoke her voice rough and rugged from the crying “go ahead, open it.” Slowly opening the box that was wooden with the name Albert carved on the front along with a bear, on the inside it was lined with a navy blue satin and there was a card laying on the inside along with a gun. Looking at her questioningly, her head bobbed in acknowledgment urging me forward. Picking up the card first it looked like a card you get at funerals and your supposed to take one. “Why do yo-” She cut me off by taking it out of my hands and flipping it over to show me the writing. It read out:

 

“Albert H. Uhler

1930-2000

loving husband of Mary Uhler, and father too Kirk A. Uhler (Margaret), and Jimmy, and Christine. Grandfather to Charles Uhler (Kristen), Halle Uhler, Leslie Uhler, Kelly Uhler, Mark Flynn, Ryan Flynn, and Cassandra Uhler.”

 

Looking up at her, it all fits this is her grandfathers thing, but with the gun. “But the gun?” I ask and she replied gently with “That was his favorites, what I want to know is why is it here I left it with my parents at home.” shaking her head her eyes wild with tears but clouded with confusion, “Not only that but how’d this get past airport security?” my own curiosity blurted out before i could stop myself. I watched as she looked at me her composure never changing, her green eyes showing nothing but plain horror. “Well i would never i don’t own a gun.” She says her voice pulling stronger, i can’t help but laugh that she thinks that i would believe she would bring a gun. “What’s so funny mister?”  she looks at me sternly and crossed her arms across her body, “Oh nothing its just kind of ridiculous that you i thought i would believe you to bring a gun.” I state looking her in the eyes and she rolls her, and searches through the case again and pulls out a paper written on cream paper, and she walks over and hands it to me. “ You take it,, it’s too much right now for me.” I nod and follow her out the room, she stops at the door smiles at me shyly then grabs my hands softly and starts walking towards the room. Her soft, small feminine hand fits in my perfectly. Fitting my fingers through hers it felt even better to know that she feels safe and comfortable around me. Smiling at her we walked into the room and we walked over to Sasha, and Cici carefully untangled our fingers and she took the not from my other hand and raised her arm and passed it to Sasha. Soon her hand was back in mine and grasping around mine tightly. Gently, she leaned into me slightly. “This is it?” Sasha’s voice asked us, sounding as if she were in deep thought. Cici nodded, her hair which she had tied back loosely bobbed back and forth each time she nodded. Little strands of her hair would fall every now and than from the sudden movement she kept making every so often. Sasha nodded and passed the note to the others and they read. “Yeah, he will definitely be kept held for a while and probably a big trial and everything, and you’ll gain full custody over her,” Sasha explained and looked at the other two who nodded in agreement, as i turned my head to see what Cici’s face looked like I felt the happy smile forming at the corner of my lips. When i see her face scrunched up with her eyelids fluttering to delete her green eyes from the world for these few moments, her nose scrunched up, along with her mouth pulled back into a wild smile showing off her perfect straight teeth to the world. Lifting her dainty hands up to her face, she covered her skin and saw her shoulders shake slightly a she started crying. The boys in the back all jumped up at the same time yelling in excitement. Mum, dad and Greg all smiled at each other happily while i raced over and grabbed Cic around the waist and twirled her back and forth. Her arms grasped my neck and she shoved her face into my hair. “Thank you! This is so amazing i just cant believe this is true,” she cried out. Sasha smiled at her as i put her down, Cic ran over and attacked Sasha in a full grown bear hug. “Thank you thank you thank you!” Sasha smiled and awkwardly patted her back, “No problems, your going to have to come down to sign some papers but we will call you about that later. Celebrate with everyone!”

The baby monitor started to go off on its place by the couch where Louis, Harry Cici and I were sitting, Cici had fallen asleep a short time ago, her head resting on my shoulder lightly once the movie we put was halfway over. I reached over grabbed it and gently turned it down slightly a to not wake Cici, then looked to Louis who was on Cici’s other side and he nodded seeming to already know what i was going to say. Lightly scooching out from underneath Cic who groaned a little, her face scrunching up in displeasure. Thats when Lou’s arm enfolded around her and pulled her gently to him and letting her head rest on his chest. Smiling i walked up to the room to find Claire crying in bed wildly throwing her arms up looking for someone to pick her up. Firmly grasping her in my arms i started so gently bounce her up and down while rocking her back and forth. Walking down the steps with little Claire i my arms quietly humming her as she looks up at me her piercing green eye opened widely smiling. The scene that unfolded me as i enter the room surprised me only for a second, Harry had curled up to Louis so his feet were over louis lap while his arms encircled Lou’s neck, meanwhile Cici’s head was now moved on top of Harry’s legs and she seemed to have gotten herself comfortable by hugging Harry’s thighs tightly. Lou looked up and he grinned evilly, “Daddy Niall’s back!” he cackled loudly after earning him strange looks from the now awake Liam, Harry who slapped him gently, and myself, Zayn manages to still be asleep. Cici moaned a bit but just shuffled herself so she was laying further up on harry, her head now shoved in the side of his waist as she clung tighter to his leg. Smiling as i sat down at my end of the couch, i carefully picked her legs up and set them on my lap while still cradling Claire.
