Adopted (One Direction Adoption)

nine

we arrived at the mall and no lie it was crazy. We were currently hiding in some swim store and Ella was going crazy wanting all these pool toys.

"daddy!" she ran over to me and handed me a Pink and white polka dotted swim suit.

"do you want this one?" she nodded and I went to but it for her since we never bought her one.

"ill keep it in the back and when the meet and greets over you can grab it." the clerk said.

"okay thanks."

"alright guys you will walk out soon you will have gaurds around you until you hit the table. There is a bunch of fans out there so we doubled up security for you guys safety. We might not get to everyone in the 2 hours we have but we will try. sound good?" Paul ssaid and we nodded.

"ella you will stay back here with Paul until the crowds die down alright bug" I kneeled down to her level.

"I want go wif you" she pouted.

"you are going to stay here with Paul then you can come sit with us ok bug?" she sighed then nodded.

"alright boys lets roll" I picked up Ella and handed her to Paul and she started pouting but went with it. I blew her a kiss and followed the boys out of the store and into a screaming sea of fans.

"hello Miami!!!" Harry yelled when we got to the stage with the table.

"hey guys thank you so much for coming out. we will try and get to everyone in the time we have. thanks so much for the support we love you guys!" Liam yelled then sat down between me and Louis.

the fans kept coming and we signed and talked to each of them. we were an hour in and the fans multiplied.

"hey Niall here's Ella she can sit in your lap alright" I turned and saw Paul with a squirming Ella. He put her in my lap and all the girls screamed and awed.

"hey babe" I said to the next girl who looked about 13.

"h-hi" she stammered. "will you sign this" she passed me her album.

"sure love" I signed it.

"can Ella sign it too?" she asked I looked up at her and smiled.

"ella boo do you want to sign this" I asked her. she nodded. she wrapped her hand around the sharpie and I wrapped mine over hers to help guide it. it looked messy but it was a work of art.

"thanks!" she said.

"can I take a picture of this?" I asked wanting to remember Ella's first autograph.

"yeah" I took a picture of it and got the girls twitter so I could tag her in the picture. 

the meet and greet lasted a bit longer and there were still a ton of fans that we couldn't get to before we had to leave for sound check.

I picked Ella up and took the mic. "thank you so much for coming sorry to those we couldn't get to we hope to see you guys tonight at the concert much love" 

we went back into the swim store and gathered our stuff and headed to the cars.  

"that went really well" Zayn spoke.

"it did and guess what Ella signed her first autograph" I grinned.

"that awesome way to go El bear!" Louis high fived her.

on our way to the arena I posted that picture on Instagram and Twitter with the caption "Ella signed her first autograph today! Big thanks to @1Dgirl78" (not sure if this is real or not just made it up).
