It Matters To Me {Narry AU}

Chapter XVIII

Eddie's POV

When i entered the very loud room, there was a bunch of tall people helping kids probably about my size. I knew my cousin went to school here. His name is Theo.

I hope i don't run into him. I walked up to another boy. He was playing with play doh, i set my backpack and lunchbox down.

"Whatcha makin?" I asked him. "A pirate ship." He responded. "Oooo Cool! I love pirates!" "Me too!" He said. I smiled.

"Can we be friends?" I asked him as i tugged at my arm. "Yeah!" He hugged me, I hugged back. "My name is Gabriel, but everyone calls me Gabe."

"My name is Edward, but everyone calls me Eddie." "Nice to meet you Eddie!" "Nice to meet you Gabe!" We started to play with the blue play doh together.

Then we got called for lunch. We sat down on a colorful table. I opened my pirate lunch box. "Wow! A pirate lunchbox!?" Have asked/yelled. "Yeah!" "Woah!" I smiled.

I opened my lunchbox. "My mum packed my lunch today, i hope it's good." He said. "My dad packed my lunch." I replied. "Cool! My dad is really cool, he has a boat." "Your dad has a boat!?" "Yeah!"

"Neither of my dads have a boat, but they have a car." I said grabbing my animal crackers. "What about your mum?" He asked. I thought about it. "I don't have a mum." "You have two dads?!" He yelled surprised.

"Yeah!" I yelled back. "That's so cool! I want two dads!" I smiled. "One of them just got back from America." "Your family is so cool!" "I know!"

Harry's POV

Me and my brand new fiancée arrived at the front of the preschool to pick up our kid.

He came running out, with his lunchbox in hand.

"Ahoy, Captain!" I yelled at him as he came running into my arms and hugging me. "Ahoy!" He looked at me and saluted me.

"How was my pirate's first day of preschool?" I asked him as he sat in my arms. "It was amazing! I got a friend!" He yelled. "Really?!" I said. "Yeah! His name is Gabriel, but people call him Gabe." "That's amazing, Eddie!"

"Guess what, Eddie?" Niall asked Eddie. "What daddy?" "Me and Daddy are getting married!" I smiled. "Really?!" Eddie got excited. "Yes!" Then we group hugged.

~~

We arrived home. Eddie ran around the house singing, "If the whole world was watching, i'd still dance with you, drive highways and highways to be here which you, over and over the only tooth, every ting comes back which you." He got some words wrong. It made ms and Niall laugh.

"I think you got some words wrong." I said laughing. I was quickly interrupted by Eddie singing, "Tell me what you want, what you really really want, i'll tell you what i want what i really really want, tell me what you want what you really really want, i really really really akwnskwn!"

Me and Niall were cracking up. "We told Louis you'd love the spice girls!" Niall said laughing.

"What are spice girls?" He asked. "The people who sang that song." Niall said laughing again.

Eddie started singing it again. Me and Niall were laughing really hard. I got my phone out and started recording him.

I sent the video to my mum because i knew she would laugh at it.

Eddie stopped singing. "I'm hungry!" He yelled. He ran up to Niall and jumped into his arms. "I want food." He said. "Ok, what do you want?" Niall asked.

"Put me down!" Eddie said as Niall set him on the ground. He ran into the pantry and got out mac and cheese. "Uncle Louis used to make this for me." He handed Niall the box.

"Ok i'll make it." Niall said. "Hey Eddie guess who we visited today?" I said to Eddie as his face lightened up, "Who?! Who!?" He shouted jumping up and down.

"Uncle Louis." I said smiling. "Really!? Can i see him!?" "Not right now, maybe tomorrow after school." "Ok! Yay!" Eddie hugged me.

"Can i watch tv?" Eddie asked. "Yeah, sure." "Yay!" He ran over to the tv and grabbed the remote. He turned on Spongebob Squarepants. It was his favorite show.

I walked over to Niall who was making the mac and cheese. "You know what we haven't done in a while?" I asked.

"What?" He asked. I whispered in his ear, "anal." "Harry!" He yelled at me. "What?! We gonna get married, it isn't a mistake either!" "I know, but what about Eddie?" He whispered.

Ugh i forgot we had a kid. "When he's at school." I replied.

Niall's POV

I had to tuck in Eddie. So i brought him to his room after he ate his dinner.

I put him into his bed with his pirates of the Caribbean blankets. He snuggled under the blankets.

"Can you tell me a story?" Eddie asked with only his big blue eyes peeking out from the covers.

I smiled. "Yes i can." I thought of a story to tell him. Then i remembered Louis always telling him funny stories before Eddie went to bed. Eddie always loves them.

Then i thought of one.

"Ok, this happened probably 4 years ago, before i met daddy."

~Flashback~

"Niall!" Louis was yelling at me to wake up. "Niall!" It was my 19th birthday.

"Niall!" He yelled one last time. "What?!" I yelled opening my eyes. "Come downstairs."

I got up from my bed, put on my slippers and ran downstairs.

Louis was standing there with a bunch of food on the table next to him. He was holding cards.

He read one. "Why did the chicken cross the road?" "Why?" "To get to the other side." He threw the card behind his back. Then he read another card.

"What do you call a pile of cats?" "What?" "A meowtain." He threw the card behind him as i was cracking up. "A guy walked into a bar...it hurt." I started laughing uncontrollably as Louis was trying to hold back the laughter.

"Where does the king keep his armies?" "Where?" I barely spoke. "In his sleeves!"

"Ok one more!" He said as i was crying laughing. "What do you call a fake noodle?" "What?" "An impasta!"

Louis started laughing with me. He came up and hugged me. "Happy birthday, mate." "Thanks."

~End of flashback~

"He was really funny." Eddie said. "Yeah he was." I smiled remembering Louis.

"I never wanna forget him." Eddie closed his eyes as he yawned. I brushed Eddie's hair out of his eyes.

"You won't, sweetheart, you won't." I smiled, as Eddie fell asleep.
