Never Letting Go. (Sequel to Til Death Do Us Part.)

46. Regret? I Don't Think So.

~Next morning

~Harry's P.O.V

While the guys and I were getting ready for our show last night, Aeron, I'm guessing against her better judgement and our ten year old, took Anna to the park. The paps swarmed the two of them and so had some fans.

The stress she was dealing with had just as much to do with the early labor as the fans and paps did, but the point I wanted to drill into her head, from the beginning, was that she shouldn't have went out anyway. Not without a male companion. She knows how I feel about her being out by herself. With Anna or not, she should have had a male with her.

It may sound harsh since she is in labor, but I will be sure to scold her afterwards.

I wasn't worried of the fans, ticket sales, tours, or any of that. Its been nearly twelve hours since I was told of Aeron's labor and I have yet to hear from Liam.

I told him before I boarded my flight to England to keep me informed every second of her state.

I had finally gotten to the flat I share with her and my, soon to be, two children. It took awhile for me to get a cab and to convince him to also drive me to the hospital.

I succeded after I had agreed to tip him.

Money hungry bigots, cab drivers are.

I climbed out of the cab, but told the driver that I'd be right back.

I hurried to the front door, fished my keys from out of my left front pocket, put it in the lock, and pushed the door open.

The flat was completely silent.

The three or four clocks that we usually kept around, in the living and dining room, would normally be ticking, but Aeron probably turned them off, like always, because she'd go insane counting the seconds I'd be away from her and Annabelle. Which I understood. I did the same thing to the clocks around me, when on tour, so I didn't lose my mind.

Heading straight for Anna's room, I opened her closet and grabbed a duffle bag that was big enough to fit clothes for the four of us, if you were including Gavin.

Taking a couple of her shirts, pants, a hoodie, a pair of sneakers, I folded them and put them inside. I also snatched her teddy bear from underneathe her blanket and pillows.

You're probably thinking 'why does a ten year old have a teddy bear'?

I wondered the same thing, but realized that she had gotten that habit from her mother.

Aeron has a teddy bear that she's been sleeping with since she was four. I have absolutely no clue why she still has it and I haven't asked why she still has it. I don't really mind it because our bed and her bear is practically showered with my scent and she sleeps better when she smells my scent on something.

That's also why I'm careful to leave a bottle of my cologne or a hoodie covered with it behind before I leave for tour or rehersals or something of that nature.

I left Anna's room and went to Gavin's nursery, grabbing three onesies, booties, socks, and a little wool cap, folding them and put them in the bag. After his room, I went to mine and Aeron's room, grabbing some of our clothes and put them inside, leaving and made sure the front door was locked before I got back in the cab and told the driver to start to the hospital.

My heart was racing and I was petrified that I had missed my first and only son being born. Having another baby is just as special and important as having the first one. Some people may not think so because you've been through the process once, but this time, it was a boy. Hopefully, a healthy boy.
