The Perfect Fathers (SEQUEL to The Perfect Parents)

Chapter Nine - Baby Drama

Louis’ POV

A few weeks after we told Juliet about the baby we had her birthday party. She was so excited and happy to see all her family and friends celebrating her. We set up her cubby house and she loved it! She ended up with loads of presents which were mostly from Niall and Liam. I can’t believe she’s three now, she was growing up so fast. But now we have another little one to care about. Harry’s 3 months along now and everything is going perfectly. We announced it to both our families at Juliet’s party and they were all thrilled for us. Harry has been happier than I have seen him in ages, although the mood swing and craving phase of the pregnancy is starting to kick in.

“Lou?” I heard Harry whisper quietly. I stayed still hoping he just wanted a cuddle. “Baby, are you awake?” He asked. “LOUIS!” He yelled loudly making me jump.

“What?!” I groaned.

“I’m hungry. I want a caramel sundae. Can you get me one?” He questioned.

“Now? Harry it’s 3 in the morning.” I sighed checking our bedside clock.

“But I want one now! Please!” He pouted.

“Can’t you wait?”

“Why can’t you get me this one thing?!” He yelled. “That’s all I wanted and you won’t even do that. I’ll go myself then!” He snapped and got out of the bed.

“Babe stop, I’ll go.” I sighed pushing him back down. “You need to rest. We have an interview tomorrow.”

“Thanks Boo.” He smiled and kissed my cheek before lying back down. I got changed and started the drive to McDonalds. I love Harry and this baby but these late night Maccas runs are killing me. I could barely keep my eyes open yesterday morning I was up helping Harry stay asleep.

“What can I get you?” The attendant asked as I stumbled sleepily up to the counter.

“Um 2 large caramel sundaes please.” I yawned. She cocks an eyebrow before getting the ice cream.

“Cravings?” She questioned as I paid.

“Yep. The joys of pregnancy hey?” I laughed accepting the change and the sundaes before driving home. “Hey Haz.” I smiled walking into the bedroom.

“Thanks Lou.” He smiled back taking one from me. “I love you so much and so does the baby.” He giggled.

“I love you both too.” I laughed kissing him and his belly. He was a bit chubbier these days but he didn’t seem to mind. These late night sundaes weren’t helping.

“Are you gonna eat that Lou?” He asked eyeing off my sundae.

“I was.” I chuckled.

“Can I have a bit? I finished mine.” He pouted. I sighed and fed him a spoonful making him smile. “Thank you Lou. Now you should sleep too. I don’t want you tired because of me and my outrageous demands.” He laughed.

“Ok baby. Goodnight.” I smiled kissing his forehead before snuggling closer to him.

“G’night Boo.” He mumbled. Soon I heard his soft snores and eventually I drifted off too.

Harry’s POV

Today was another interview day, fun! Note my obvious sarcasm. Interviews are fun sometimes but today I wasn’t feeling well and didn’t want to move from the couch. I felt like if I moved I would be sick everywhere.

“I can’t go Simon. I feel awful. I don’t want to be sick in the middle of an interview.” I sighed rubbing my painful stomach. “Yes I know the fans have to know but can’t Louis just tell them? Please!” I groaned.
