The Perfect Fathers (SEQUEL to The Perfect Parents)

Chapter Six - Moving On

Harry’s POV

The morning after the incident at McDonalds we all met for breakfast downstairs. Niall was playing with Julie and Liam was watching while Zayn was eating and trying to text Perrie. I wasn’t going to eat anything and neither was Louis. We just sat quietly. We had rehearsals all day today, I don’t know how we’re going to go.

“Are you guys ok? You’re very quiet.” Niall asked. I looked at him and shrugged.

“Yeah I guess.” Juliet smiled and ran over to us. I smiled too and picked her up.

“Hey sweetie.” I smiled.

“Dada baby.” She giggled poking my belly. “Me big sister.” She smiled. I couldn’t help it I let out a sob and held her close to me.

“What’s wrong Haz?” Liam asked worriedly.

“Dada?”

“There’s no baby.” I cried.

“What?” They all asked confused.

“Yesterday we went to the Zoo and afterwards took Juliet to McDonalds to wear her out and some kid pushed her over. She was crying and Harry got into an argument with the boy’s dad. He punched Harry in the stomach and killed our baby. The bastard!” Louis explained. He was crying too.

“Oh my god!” Niall gasped. “That cunt! I’m going to find him and slap him so hard-“

“Niall.” Liam sighed calming him down. “We’re so sorry you guys. If you need anything just ask.” I nodded.

“Thanks guys.” I smiled slightly.

“No more baby?” Juliet asked. I shook my head making her frown.

“No more baby honey.”

“Why?”

“He was needed up in heaven. But he still loves you and you love him too don’t you?”

“Yes. Lots and lots.” She smiled. “When is he coming back?” She questioned.

“He’s not coming back honey. But he’s happy up there.” Louis explained to her.

“Oh…” She sighed. I rubbed her back trying to make her feel better. “We never meet him.”

“I know sweetie. It’s aright though.” I smiled slightly at her and she nodded.

“If you guys need more time we can postpone tonight’s show.”

“No its ok. It’ll be a good distraction. We’ve been crying all night.” Louis chuckled and I agreed.

“We see Aunty Lou?” Julie asked.

“Yeah baby. We’re going to see Aunty Lou and Lux tonight.” Lou smiled taking her from me.

“Yay!” She giggled as he tickled her. We still have one perfect child, even if we did lose another.

Louis’ POV

After we eventually ate something we all headed to Allphones Arena where the show was being held tonight. It was pretty big and had a huge stage. Juliet and Lux played on stage together as we did our first sound check.

“I’m in love with you, and all your little things.” We finished the last line of Little Things.

“Perfect boys. Remember Harry take it easy.” Paul said giving him a sympathetic look. He nodded sadly and went to get a drink. I sighed and went over to him.

“You ok baby?” I asked wrapping my arms around him.

“Yeah.” He sighed. “At least I won’t get sick anymore.”
