Niall's secret child

54

25 weeks

I let out a groan as I get out of the bed and make my way to the bathroom not bothering to be quiet, Niall was still sleeping but I didn't care if he woke up or not. If I can't sleep he can't. I shut the bathroom door and do my business before washing my hands in the sink. I dry my hands before walking over to the full length mirror and stood in front of it as I pull my shirt up to look at my stomach.

I had another ultrasound the other week to see the baby and let me tell you, it's growing. Since i'm getting further into the pregnancy I've been having trouble sleeping and I've had a lot of cramps which is honestly so annoying and uncomfortable. Lately I haven't wanted to do anything except for lay down and ignore the world because I'm tired and grumpy. I've taken leave at work because I can't handle it at the moment and my boss understood and told me I could take as much time off as I wanted. Niall has told me just to quit because we don't need the money. Every time he brings it up I just roll my eyes at him and ignore him for a few hours.

I let out a sigh and put the shirt back down before walking out of the bathroom turning the light off in the process. i look at the bed to see Niall was still sound asleep making me sigh. All I want to do is sleep but I can't manage to. I decide not to lay back down and make my way out of the bedroom. I pull the bedroom door closed behind me quietly and make my way down the hallway.

I peak my head into Atticus' bedroom to check on him. The nightlight lit up his room a little bit and I could see his little body in the crib still sleeping making me smile slightly. I take a step back and walk downstairs and into the kitchen. I turn the light on and begin searching through the cupboards, fridge and freezer trying to find something to satisfy my needs. I finally decide on the cookie dough ice cream so i grab a spoon and walk out into the living room where I turn the TV onto Netflix before taking a seat on the couch with my legs up.

I search through Netflix before deciding on The 100 series. I've heard a lot about it and started it yesterday when I couldn't sleep. I place the remote down and began watching as I slowly ate the ice cream. After one episode I take the ice cream back to the kitchen and put it away before walking back to the living room. I lay back down on the couch and get comfortable before resuming the next episode.

"Babe" I let out a groan and open my eyes to see Niall was kneeling beside me. I look around a little bit to see I was in our bed. I turn my head back and give Niall a confused look. "I brought you up here this morning" Niall informs me and I nod my head. "Why did you wake me up?" I question "It's already 3 in the afternoon so I thought I'd wake you up" I let out another groan making Niall chuckle.

"Do you want a bath?" Niall questions, I nod my head so he stands up and walks into the bathroom. I watch him from where I lay to see what he was doing. I smile as Niall fills the bath tub up with bubbles and lights some candles. "Alright, out of bed" I pout at Niall as he walks back into the bedroom. "Fine" I grumble as i get out of the bed with some help from Niall.

"I'll get you some comfortable clothes, you hop in the bath and relax" I nod my head as I walk into the bathroom, I go to the toilet quickly before I undressed myself and slipped into the bath carefully. I let out a sigh as I slip down so the water was up to my chin. The water was so calming, it was the right temperature and the candles that surrounded the bath made it even better.

Niall came back a few moments later with some clean clothes just like he had told me, I smile as he sets them down on the counter before kneeling down so his face was at mine. "Call me if you need anything" I nod as he places a short sweet kiss on my lips before walking out of the bathroom. He's such a sweetheart. I smile and close my eyes so I could relax for a little bit.

Before long the bath water began to get cold so I stand up being careful so i don't slip before letting the bath drain. I didn't have any bubbles on me because they seemed to all dissolve so I get out of the tub and grab the fluffy brown towel from the rack and dried myself. Once I was all dry I get changed into the fresh undergarments Niall had brought in before slipping on my black tights followed a large white t-shirt and some fluffy socks. I let out a sigh and snuggle into the shirt. I was so comfortable and warm right now. I walk over to the sink where I brush through my hair before putting it up in a bun before walking out of the bathroom and downstairs.

"Hey baby" Niall greets me as I walk into the kitchen "Hi" I say softly as I walk over to him. "I love you" Niall whispers into my ear as i wrap my arms around his waist and place my head on his chest. "I love you" I say back as I look up to see Niall was looking down at me. He places a kiss on my lips followed by one on my head. "How are you feeling?" Niall questions as he leans back against the counter. "feeling like I want this baby out" He chuckles and places a kiss on my head again.

"Only a few more weeks baby, only a few more" Niall tells me as he rubs my back "What name are we going to pick?" Niall questions me softly "Atty really wants us to name the baby Toby and I like it" I tell Niall "but it's a boy's name" Niall tells me "It can be a girls name, I mean there are so many celebrities with boy names for their girls" I say and Niall nods his head. "We'll find some more names and then decide. How about that?" I nod before looking around in confusion. It was quiet. Too quiet for a two year old to be living in this house.

"Where's Atticus?" I question Niall as I begin to panic. "Shh settle down. He's next door" I let out a sigh of relief knowing that my boy was in safe hands. Since we moved into his house a few weeks back we have grown close to the neighbors on our right who have two kids, two young boys. Auden, the youngest was 4 and he was really good with playing with Atticus even though he was a few years older and then they had James who is 8.

I found out that Auden actually goes to the same day care that Atticus and the twins go to but is in the older section of the building because they are put in age groups at the daycare. "Why's he over there?" I question Niall "Because I know you need a break from looking after him" I smile up at him and give him a kiss "Thank you" I say softly "No problem baby" Niall murmurs as he places another kiss on my lips.
