Niall's Pov

October

We had gone to the Bahamas on the private jet and it was the best week of my life. We had sex and ate food that had weird names. I loved it and I loved Harry.

"So for Halloween I want to be an oven." I told Louis as I stared at the pregnancy tests. Louis laughed and smacked my head.
"Why's that?" Louis asked turning my attention away from the tests.

"Because I have a bun in the oven." I mumbled after a few minutes of me just staring at the tests. Louis let a yell and I smacked him.
"I'm going to be an uncle. Hell yes! Thank god for Harry." Louis chanted. I rolled my eyes and stared back down at the tests.

"Yeah, thank god for Harry." I mumbled softly. I couldn't really comprehend the fact that I was actually pregnant, I was on the pill, and we didn't even go without a condom except that one time.

"What's all the yelling about?" Harry mumbled rubbing his eyes as I hid the tests from him. I didn't know why I was scared, I trusted him, and I knew he'd be happy, but I was scared of a commitment like that.
"Oh nothing." Louis said catching onto my vibe. I smiled and wrapped my arms around Harry.

"Hey are you pregnant?" Harry said to Louis when he caught glimpse of the box Louis was holding.
"They're not his." I said slowly, tucking my face back into Harry's chest and waiting for him to say something, anything.

"Oh? Well are you pregnant?" Harry asked calmly, I could still hear the sleep in his voice, and I'd be lying if I said that it wasn't a total turn on.
"Uh yeah." I said slowly. Harry didn't say anything at first and for a second I thought he was mad and then he picked me up and spun me around.

"That's fantastic." He stated kissing me. Louis was cheering again and I had Harry put me down so I wouldn't puke.
"Sorry. But that's great Niall." Harry rambled looking over the tests that I had taken.
"I'm glad you're excited." I smiled happily just soaking in Harry's happiness.
"Are you?" Harry asked practically bouncing with excitement.

"Yeah, if you're happy then I'm happy. I was nervous that you'd be upset." I said kissing him on the neck.
"Niall I'll leave." Louis spoke up.
"Ok I'll call you. Bye Lou." I said.

Harry lead me back to bed where we ended up cuddling in bed and eventually falling back asleep.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

"Niall you don't look fat, calm down alright?" Harry said grabbing my hands and holding onto them tightly as I adjusted my Halloween costume.
"But there's going to be a lot of people here, judgmental people." I whined earning nothing more than an eye roll from Harry who adjusted his costume.

We were being the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Harry was Raphael and I was Mikey. Louis and Ashton were Donatello and Leonardo. They were meeting us at the annual Halloween party that was always held at none other than Taylor Swifts house. I was good friends with Ariana who knew Taylor so we were always invited. Plus Harry was always invited because apparently Gemma had a thing with her that never really ended.

The costumes were simple, just a pair of whatever color turtle we were boxers and suspenders and then a mask and a shell and whatever weapon our turtle used. We were going shirtless and despite the fact that I still had very defined abs, I was nervous that people could tell if I was pregnant.

Taylor was different with her parties because she always sent out a yearly list of possible costumes and you had to sign up for the costume so that there weren't any duplicates. It was a smart idea, and I didn't mind it.

"So Louis is bringing the body paint so we can paint ourselves there." I said speaking of how we were planning on painting our chests green. It was all Louis's idea.

"Ok that's fine. Let's go." Harry said grabbing his keys. I rolled my eyes at how excited he was but followed him to the garage to get into the car.

We arrived at the party a half hour later and we were some of the first people there, we had gotten here early to help set up. Louis was there too, already applying the green paint to Ashton and himself.
"Hello my favorite love birds." Louis smiled handing Harry some paint as he finished applying it to Ashton. Ashton put some on Louis and then Louis walked over and handed me his bottle.

Harry put some on my chest and upper body, I think he just wanted an excuse to rub his hands over my stomach, and then I did the same for him.

(Side note: so like all four of them are like hairless.)

"Ok lets go." Harry grinned grabbing my hand after we had all wiped off our paint covered hands. When we walked inside there was some music playing but Taylor was still setting up.

"Hi guys! Wow you all look great!" She grinned, she was dressed as cat woman, Louis and I thanked her and then Ashton and Harry did too.
"Where's Gem?" She asked. Harry shrugged and placed his arm around me.
"She said she was coming, probably running late though." Harry said rolling his eyes. Taylor laughed and nodded as she led us through the house.

"Did you need help?" I asked once she stopped and gave us drinks. I didn't drink mine though.
"No relax, just go to the dance floor and have fun! Don't get too wasted." She smiled walking away after that. I poured my drink into Harry's cup and got a new cup to fill it with some water.
"Good boy." Harry praised kissing me softly.

"So I told Ashton, hope you don't mind." Louis said after a few moments of silence.
"It's fine, I would do the same if the roles were reversed." I said earning a grin from Louis.
"I'm so excited for you guys." Ashton said after a break in the conversation that Harry and him were having.
"Yeah, I'm thrilled." Harry said.

And all of a sudden I wasn't afraid of the commitment that a baby entailed.

I was happy to be with Harry.

And that's all that mattered now.
