Expecting Little Horan

Chapter 5

Niall’s POV

I slowly rolled over to shut off my alarm that has been ringing the past 2 minutes, My family were flying in to Heathrow in a few hours and I told them I would pick them up, thankfully the alarm didn’t wake Mya, she looked too peaceful sleeping. I walked to the tallboy and picked out some clothes, after standing in the shower for 20 minutes I figured it was best to start getting ready to go pick up my family. I was excited to see them, I’ve missed everyone so much and I want to see how much Theo has grown since I last seen him.

As I walked down the stairs I looked at the clock on my phone reading 9:50am, I grabbed my keys and left Mya a note reassuring her I would be home soon. I hopped into my Range Rover and cranked up the heat, even though it was August it seemed to be terribly cold out lately. Finally I had arrived at Heathrow and noticed I still had some time to kill, I noticed I hadn’t done my daily twitter check, I scrolled through my newsfeed and checked my interactions obviously the fans were keeping up with the media because many of my interactions were of fans asking me if Mya being pregnant was actually true.

“@NiallOffical; so excited t see ma family ! been forever excited t see how big Theo is !” I tweeted, I turned off the car suddenly sending me into chills. I exited the car and locked it before making my way into the airport terminal, I stood in the arrivals area waiting patiently to see a sign of my family. After 30 minutes of waiting I seen a familiar face jogging through the crowd, it was my Mam she had almost tears in her eyes but held them back, I looked up to see my Dad coming in for a hug, “hey son, how you been? I’ve missed you!” I got choked up when he said that, I continued with the hugs taking in Chris, Greg and Denise and of course little Theo or as the Directioners call him ‘lil craic’.

“wow, I can’t believe you’re all here” I said while holding Theo, “I’ve missed you all and it’s been so long, Mya is so excited to see you all” I continued. We collected everyones luggage and thankfully my dad had thought to hire a car because we weren’t all going to fit in mine, we piled into the two cars and headed on our way back home.

“MYA WE’RE HOME” I called out carrying my mams bags inside for her, Mya appeared around the corner with excitement in here face that everyone was here. “oh my god, Maura you’re looking as lovely as ever” she said happily sweet talking my mother, “Bobby, you are seriously looking fantastic I can’t believe how long it has been. And look at Denise and Greg, you both have not changed.. OH MY GOD” she paused for a moment, “Theo look at you, you’ve gotten so big, you could almost take on Uncle Nialler in soccer now” she said with a giggle in her voice.  

After exchanging stories for the past 2 hours there was a ring at the door, Mya excused herself knowing very well that it was her parents making their exsistence known. Suddenly an ear piercing scream was heard coming from the entrance, I knew for sure it was her parents and excused myself to go and greet them as well. “Hi Mark, how ya going?” I asked taking her dads hand in for a strong handshake, “very well Niall, lovely home you and Mya have created here” he kindly responded. I walked over and took Mya’s mum Julia in for a hug while welcoming her to our home, I lead Myas parents into the lounge room where my family say their hellos and have a little catch up. We announce to our families that we have made a reservation for dinner at a nice restaurant for tea tonight at 7.

“c’mon ladies, our reservations is at 7 tonight not tomorrow morning” yelled Mark from the lounge room, us men were enjoying a drink and some friendly footy talk waiting for the ladies to be done. After what seemed like hours they made their way down the stairs announcing that they were ready, we piled into the three cars that were parked outside our house and made a journey to the restaurant. Once we arrived and had all parked our cars we noticed a few paparazzi were around taking our snaps, luckily we were able to get into the restaurant before they harassed us to much.

Mya’s POV

We took our seats inside the fancy restaurant, it was a lovely place but I just wish we could’ve brought our families out for tea without being harassed or having our photos being taken.

I gripped Nialls hand under the table letting him know that my nerves were very high, His nerves must have been high as well because he gripped my hand just as hard back. “Order what ever you would like, Niall and I are paying tonight” I tell everyone, While waiting for our meals we all discuss what has been happening since we all last saw one another. As the minutes pass by my nerves get more and more intense, finally everyone had finished their meals and the plates were cleared away, this was it, it was time to tell everyone.
