Zayn's Point of View

I rolled to my side and got out of bed, picking my boxers up from the ground and pulling them back up my naked body. I tugged the duvet around Florence's sleeping frame and walked out of our bedroom. I made my way into Evelyn's nursery and walked over to my crying baby in her crib. I gently picked her up and tried to shush her.

"Shh, it's okay baby. Daddy is going to get you a bottle. S'okay," I said to my baby as I bounced her. I cradled her in my arms tightly and went downstairs with her, quickly making a bottle and feeding Evelyn. She quit crying and started to scarf down her bottle of formula.

As I was feeding her there were loud bangs at the door. I looked at the clock that hung in the kitchen and it read 4:27. Who would be here this early? I hurriedly made my way to the door and opened it to see my mum and dad.

"Mum, dad? What are you guys doing here?" I asked confused.

"Zayn, who's that you're holding there?" My mum asked me with an annoyed look on her face.

"My daughter Ev- oh, mum I'm so sorry," I stammered. I never called my parents telling them I have a kid.

"Damn right you're sorry! I had to find out from Doniya! She was on her Twitter when she found out Zayn! I just can't believe you never called and told me or your dad that you have a child, it's a pretty big deal Zayn! You leave in just a few days to start rehearsing for your tour and I'm glad I finally found out. We will get a nursery ready at our house for the little one," My mum finished.

"What are you talking about? Why would you need to get a nursery ready for Evelyn?" I asked my mum opening the door wider to let them walk inside.

"Well she needs somewhere to go. I don't think you'd be stupid enough to have an infant go on a worldwide tour with you, it's dangerous," My mum said with a non-humorous laugh as we all walked into the living room, sitting down on the couch.

"Actually, I was planning on having my baby come on tour with me," I said turning to my parents.

"Zayn, I agree with your mum. It's highly dangerous for an infant to travel around like that. Not to mention your fans, they can get a little handsy sometimes," My dad spoke up now.

"I understand your guys' concerns, but I'm one hundred percent positive that Evelyn will be just fine," I said to my parents. My mum rolled her eyes and my dad scoffed.

"Bullshit, something bad is going to happen to her and then who will be right?" My mum asked the rhetorical question, pointing at herself.

"Mum, she will have a nanny and everything on this tour. She will be perfectly fine," I said gritting my teeth together.

"Fine Zayn, I won't push this any further, lets just drop this subject for now," My mum said, "Now let me hold my grand-baby!" She shouted now. I chuckled and pulled the bottle out of her mouth before handing her over to my mum.

"She has your nose," My dad said as he looked at Evelyn over my mum's shoulder.

"And her lips are shaped like yours as well," My mum said, admiring my baby. I smiled brightly and looked at my baby who was looking back and fourth between my mum and dad.

"She's really quiet as well, has a lot of your traits I see son," My dad said looking at me with a smile.

"I guess so, but she has her mum's eyes colour and hair colour," I said looking at Evelyn.
