Why I Never Told You ( Harry Styles Fan-Fic)

Waking Up

Harry's POV

I woke up to the smell of pancakes and someone laughing. I smiled and sat up looking around. God I could get used to waking up this happy I thought, as I made my way to the kitchen. I walked in and saw Alex cooking and smiled to myself. "Mummy I want more" a little voice says from the island bar. I look over to see the back of a small boy with thick curly brown hair. "make that two plates" I say walking over to sit next to the boy. He glances at me and looks at his mum wide eyed. "Hi I'm Harry" I say putting out my hand for him to shake, he doesn't even look at me. "You didn't wash your hands" he says frowning at his plate. I get up and wash my hands, chuckling to myself, then walk over to Alex and make myself a plate, placing a peck on her cheek. She blushes and looks to Styles, who is still frowning at his empty plate. I grab two more pancakes and put them on his plate. He smirks but doesn't look up. I sit back down and offer my hand again " As I was saying, hi I'm Harry" I smile down at him he puts his hand in mine and slowly looks up to meet my eyes. " Hi I'm Styles" He says giving a sly smile. I just stare at him, at his eyes, my eyes, but that can't be right, can it?

"Mummy, can I be done now?" Styles asks and Alex nods taking the plate from in front of him and eating his untouched pancakes. He jumps down and runs from the kitchen. I just stared at my plate as I counted back the time in my head. "Is he mine" I asked quietly. "what" she asked avoiding the question "Alex don't play games with me! Just answer the damn question. Is he mine!" I almost yelled. She just looked at her food nodding her head "yes" she whispered, tears falling from her eyes. "Did you ever plan on telling me" I asked quietly as I walked over to her pulling her chin up so she would look at me. She just shook her head " I didn't know how, it all happened so fast, and I didn't want to mess up your career." she stuttered, tears rolling down her face. I wiped them away kissing her lips and pulling her to me. "We could have made it work love, we will make this work if that is what you want." She nodded her head and leaned against my chest. I could feel the tears in my eyes as I stood there holding her to me.

"Harry, do you want to watch cartoons with me?" Styles tiny voice asked. I looked down and smiled at the little boy clutching my pants leg, my little boy. "course" I said, smiling as I reached down and picked him up. When we got into the living room he wiggled down and ran to get the remote. "It's three oh six" he stated as he sat down I punched in the numbers and plopped down on the opposite side of the couch. He scooted closer every minute or so until he was right next to me. "Harry" he said pulling on my sleeve. "yeah?" I asked looking down at him " I know" he said and hugged me tightly I hugged him back, just holding him to me until he pulled away. "you know what?" I asked him still confused. "I know that you're my daddy" he said putting his hand in mine. " I am" I told him pulling him into my lap. "but how did you know?" I asked him " I knew because I heard Mummy and Aunt Tara talking about it and when you said your name, I remembered, then I saw you. You look like me" he said scratching the back of his neck just like I do when I'm nervous.

I sat there holding the most beautiful little boy on my lap thinking about everything that happened between his mother, it all made sense, she hinted at being pregnant and I never took the time to really listen. I was just so excited, then when she left I was devastated but everyone just kept telling me it was for the best, but sitting here looking at my son I really wonder if it was for the best. I missed out on all of it because of my career but without my career would I be happy? I questioned myself for a while before I slid Styles off my lap, kissed his forehead and told him I had to make a phone call.

"Lou" I said into the phone. "Harry, how was your night mate?" he asked I could here the smile on his lips. "Great but not the way you are thinking" I answered "What do you mean, what happened?" he asks a little panicked. "Listen Lou get the guys, I would rather only explain once" I say calmly and wait for him to put me on speaker. "Okay we are here" Zayn chimes. "Alright so you know Alex obviously, and you know she has a kid?" I say "Yes, spit it out Harry" Liam says loudly. "Well he's my son." I state quickly waiting for there reaction. "WHAT" they all yell at once "Harry, are you sure, I really think you should get a doctor to confirm this" Niall tells me. "Niall I know this sounds sketchy but you just have to see him, I don't need a DNA test" I tell them. " Well when can we meet him!" Lou yells in the background. "Umm now if you like I can just bring them over" I say looking over my shoulder to see Alex standing in the door way shaking her head "or you guys could come here so no paps see him" I correct myself and she nods her head and runs up the stairs. "and bring me some clothes, yeah?" I say hanging up the phone.
