Magic (Liam Payne Fanfic)

Chapter Sixteen.

It had been 2 months since Collin was born, we all took turns during the day watching him so that Niall and Arielle could get some sleep. He was a pretty good sleeper, but you can never be fully rested when you have to wake up multiple times every night.

"My boobs are still leaking," Arielle said as Liam held Collin and we sat on the couch.

"It'll stop," I said, "Just got to give it time."

Collin was beautiful. He had Niall's bright blue eyes and Arielle's strawberry blonde hair. And oh my did he have a lot of hair. Usually babies with strawberry blonde hair look bald because it's so light, but this kid had some really obvious hair.

Niall yawned, "Being this tired is so not the craic."

I laughed and Perrie and Zayn pulled up out front.

"Let me have my baby," Zayn said as he walked in.

"I have to buy him more clothes," Arielle said, rubbing her face, "He's too big for his newborn stuff now, needs 3 month."

"We can go buy him stuff," Perrie said.

"Yeah, why don't you guys go get some sleep and we'll take him out," Liam said.

"Really? Are you sure?" Niall asked.

"Yeah," I nodded.

Niall went to pull out his wallet.

"Don't you even dare bitch boy," Zayn said to him, "We've got this."

He sighed and nodded. They went and got us his diaper bag and car seat. We got into Perrie's car and drove to buy him clothes.

"God I can't stand how cute this stuff is still," Perrie said as we picked out clothes for him.

"Almost makes you want a baby until you think about all of the difficult shit that comes along with one," I said.

"No more bikini body and suddenly it's like throwing a hot dog down a hallway."

I threw my head back and laughed, "I actually think it shrinks up pretty well down there."

"Kegel exercises," she laughed.

"I do that like on an hourly basis," I laughed.

"So have they figured out anything for the wedding yet?" Perrie asked.

"They figured out that they want it to be in summer of next year, they've already talked to Syco and Modest about it, they're going to figure out the best time for it. And Arielle wants something straight out of a story book of course."

"I don't blame her."

"Oh neither do I," I said, "I always thought a Disney wedding would be perfect. But that shit can get idiotically expensive."

"I think you've forgotten who you'll be getting married to," Zayn said as Liam kissed my temple.

"I'd rather go all out on a honeymoon than on a wedding," I said.

"You should honeymoon in Bora Bora at that Hilton that the Kardashian's went to," Perrie said.

"Ugh, I could only dream. If you can find a diamond earring in the water because of how clear it is, I want to live there."

"Where do Arielle and Niall want to vacation?"

"Probably at Nando's," Liam said, making us laugh.

"I wouldn't doubt it for a second," Zayn said.

Collin was asleep in his carseat that was set in the cart. We bought him probably way too many outfits and different things. We bought them more diapers, wipes and formula just to be sweethearts. As well as a few other things, then we went back home. Perrie and I cut the tags off of everything and washed it, deciding we'll let Arielle and Niall sleep a few more hours. We stood in the doorway to the living room and watched Liam and Zayn play with Collin.

"They're gonna be great dads someday," Perrie said.

"Yeah," I nodded, "I kind of can't wait for it honestly."

She put her arm around my shoulders, "We got ourselves some keepers."

I took out my phone and took a picture of them, uploading it to Instagram with the caption Babysitting baby Collin so mum and dad can sleep, these boys are the cutest xx.

"Arielle I'm sure he's fine!" I heard Niall yell outside and Arielle came bursting into the house with tears in her eyes.

When she saw Collin, she let out a breath.

"Hey what's wrong?" I asked, walking towards her.

She put her arms around me, "I had a dream he was kidnapped."

"Okay, stop watching Sons of Anarchy babe. It's okay, we wouldn't let anything happen to him," I said.

"I know," she nodded and Niall came in.

I wiped her tears away. She held onto Collin for a little while and I made her coffee.

"I can't believe it's been 2 months already," I said, "It feels like it was just yesterday."

"Time goes by way too fast," Niall said as he stroked his sons hair.

"It's crazy," Liam nodded.

I sat down on Liam's lap and he wrapped his arms around my waist.

"I feel like all we do is stay at home now," Arielle said.

"Well why don't we plan a small vacation then," Perrie said, "The whole lot of us can go somewhere."

"My mum could watch Collin," Niall said.

"I don't know, being away from him for more than just a few hours seems wrong," Arielle said.

"You'll have to get out of the house eventually. It wouldn't be so bad, you could skype and talk on the phone with Maura everyday," I said.

She sighed, "I'll think about it."
