The bakery was decorated in pink, pink everything and everywhere it could possible be, PINK! Louis went a little over board but there was no stopping him today, the streamers, the glitter, the fake castle backdrop, the tiaras, and pink things. Darcy was being brought later by my mum after Louis, Niall, Liam, Zayn and myself finished making Louis' vision come true, complete with the cake I was forced to bake. Louis was dressed in tights and peasant shirt, barking at us to call him, 'Squire Lou'. Soon the room was filled with happy looking little girls from Darcy's daycare and preschool class, toting colourful gift bags. One single boy showed up, looking out of place and slightly unhappy while holding his Power Rangers' gift bag, his name was Justin. Justin was Darcy's best friend, they would call each other on the phone and talk about Power Rangers in length, he was a good friend to show up to her girly party. My mum walked in with an overly excited Darcy, she had never had a birthday party like this before, typically me and her just ate cake together while watching the television. She never had a chance to share her birthday with girls, that she didn't usually talk to nor did she really get the chance to act like a girl, she was stuck with just a father.

Elizabeth only stayed with Darcy and I for about a year, not even really, once she realized how much work it was going to be, she just left. Lizzie had enough guts to sign over all her rights to me, leaving me the sole caretaker for our eight month old baby. I don't know if I can honestly blame Lizzie though, I wanted to run away from be a father, I wanted to run away so bad. The moment I saw Darcy though, saw my will Dinky blinking up at me from where she laid in my arms, I knew she was stuck with me. She was mine, mine to hold, mine to sing to, mine to brainwash into watching Power Rangers. I got to dress her in frilly little dress and lacy socks, I learned how to braid hair and use a hair elastic. Now I get to watch her turn five, at a birthday party planned by my boyfriend, with people who mean the world to her. I didn't know I was ready to raise a child but I guess someone did and not to toot my own horn, but I think I did a really good job of it so far.

The doorbell of the bakery door chimed as six more people huddled into the room, pulling their jumpers and coats off, Louis, Liam, and Zayn rushing to them in excitement. "Mum, I am so glad you could make, it'll make Dink very happy to meet you." Louis gushed as he brought the woman, who was his mother Jay, into a hug before being engulfed by the four small girls. Louis was laughing as he fell to the floor, the four girls giggling while on top of him, Darcy peaking out from behind my pant leg. I ran my fingers through her hair, comforting her in a way only I understood as she watched Louis interact with girls that were not her. Before long, Louis was standing up, brushing himself off and walking our way. "Harry, this is my mum, Jay and my stepfather, Mark." Louis said as I stood there unsure of what to do, usually I would wrap my arm around his waist or kiss his cheek but I don't know if his parents knew he was gay and dating me, I left it alone. Smiling, I reached my hand out to shake theirs, about to introduce them to Darcy. "Mum, Dad, this is Harry, my boyfriend." Once Louis spoke those words, my smile grew wider if that was even possible, knowing that he was not ashamed of me. It took Lizzie three months into our relationship for her to tell her parents we were seeing each other, she probably won't have but we had a pregnancy scare, which was a lie on her behalf. She lied about being pregnant because I was going to break up with her, since she never wanted to be seen with me in public, at school, and she wouldn't tell her parents who I really was to her.
