~River's POV~

When the four of us arrived at the airport in Ireland, Liam and Zayn ushered us to a limo after getting mine and the children's bags. Malik kept clapping his hands and squealing softly, looking for his daddy.

Rylan stayed close to me, hiding her face in the skirt of my dress. She sniffled and cried softly.

Liam picked her up while Zayn made funny faces at her during the car ride to the motel.

Tony was in awe about the colors he saw, his face glued to the window.

Myself on the other hand? I began getting nervous and scared. I began thinking Niall didn't want to see us or I'd screw up.

"Niall doesn't know about this," Liam says.

"O-okay," I mumble, nervous.

I'm terrible at keeping secrets, very very very terrible. I told Ashton about Luke when Luke cut for the first time. I couldn't keep my mouth shut....

I place my head in my hands and I felt some tears fall.

"We can't have her cry," Zayn whined.

"Because you'll cry," Liam shot back.

I took my grey flats off and tucked my feet underneath me. I laid my head against the door and just closed my eyes. I felt the nervousness deepen and it made me sadder.

That's when I felt someone squeeze my knee. I blinked gently and opened my eyes.

"Hey, it's okay," Liam says softly, "You'll see Niall at the show tonight, then the two of you and the kids can cuddle the whole night. You'll even get to be on tour with Niall and us for a couple of weeks, then I believe Niall's family is having a Christmas dinner since Christmas is close.".

I meekly nodded, taking deep breaths and a small smile formed on my lips.

~Time Skip to the Show~

I held Rylan and Malik by their arms as we hid with Tony in a small alcove like place in the stadium. Malik had saw Niall four times as the guys rushed around to get everything ready.

As soon as the guys started singing Drag Me Down, which was in the middle of the show, Malik freed himself and his sister from my grasp and ran to Niall.

I watched Niall look at them and pause. Knowing he'd miss his part in the song, I started singing it, someone's mic picking up my voice.

When the song was done, Niall looked at me.

"Rivy?".
