Adopted (One Direction Adoption)

seven

It was a long and exhausting night. With poor little Ella waking up everyother 30 minutes crying it was just a rough night. It is now 7am and Ella is laying across my stomach with her head on my chest, her face is red and has dried tears on her cheeks. Throughout the night we watched Finding Nemo because she couldnt fall asleep, the pain would keep her up. Ella was very much awake and she would sniffle here and there. i stood up and walked downstairs and was greeted by all the boys in the kitchen eating.

"hey mate long night?" Zayn asked eating his toast.

"you have no idea. She would wake up crying due to the pain and i wouldnt know what to do so i just rubbed her back as we watched Nemo." i responed walking to pour me some tea. "i barley got a wink of sleep i couldnt sleep knowing she was in pain and i couldnt do anything."

"why dont you go sleep and we will watch Ella for the day ok?" Liam suggested.

"yeah mate you need a break we will take care of here, she needs uncle time anyway" Zayn added.

"thanks guys but im sure you have better things to do then take care of a 3 year old who is very fussy." i grabbed Ella a banana and set it down on the counter.

"She is our niece and we are snowed in anyway, it snowed hard last night." Louis corrected.

i thought about it for a moment and i would really liked to get some sleep.

"i guess, dont forget to give her, her milk with that powder added in there, and take her bandage off in a couple hours and rub this cream on it gently because it is stil sore. And-"

"Ni calm down we will take care of her plus your right ustairs not across the world, now go get some sleep before tour starts up, when you wake up and you can start packing." Harry pushed me to the stairs getting me to go upstairs.

I woke up feeling refreshed, I looked at the clock and it was 4:30 Ella should be getting up from her nap right now. I get out of bed yawning and doing that really good stretch. I walk downstairs to see Liam,Harry,Louis, and Ella sound asleep on the couch. I walk into the kitchen and see Zayn drinking tea.

"how long have they been asleep?"

"an hour maybe" he looked at his watch. "how did you sleep"

"really good actually, thank you for watching Ella."

"of course while you were asleep we packed some of Ellas stuff as well as ours. You could go through it to make sure everything is ok."

"thanks I should probably go pack" I laughed. "hey would you wake Ella up in say 15 minutes if not she wont sleep tonight and we have a flight to catch."

"yeah sure" I grabbed a banana and headed upstairs to my room. 

I grabbed my suit case and went to my closet and started throwing random clothes on to my bed that I would eventually fold and out into my suitcase. I have a different suitcase for different weather. Warm,cold, and mess around and shoes. We will be on the road for a couple months if I forget something ill just buy it.

I was zipping my last bag when my door opened.

"DAAAAAADDDDYYYYY" Ella screamed as she jumped on my back.

"hey baby did you have fun with your uncles?" I started tickling her as she climbed off my back.

her laugh was contagious "y-yes daddy stop" she screamed between laughs.

I stopped tickling her and sat her on my lap. "hey you want to go finish packing your stuff?" she nodded and ran to her room, me close behind her.

"lets see what your uncles thought was brilliant to pack" I notice all they packed was 2 pairs of her shorts and a t shirt, yeah that's not going to last her 9 months. when we get a break on tour im taking her to Ireland so she can finally meet my family, her grandparents. They are so excited to finally meet their granddaughter. I smiled at the thought.
