Our Baby Girl

Ch.3

Niall's POV

I packed Camryn's clothes in her suitcase while she handed them to me. She's still not being herself. I know it's going to take a little while for her to adjust, but I hate seeing her like this. "You sure you're okay with this, Camryn? I mean you're not going to see your friends for a while, and you're going to be traveling a lot. I don't want to do this if you're not okay with it." I told her while we continued to pack her stuff. She only nodded her head silently. "Okay, but if you ever want out just tell me, and we can figure something out." I said.

"I just wanna be with you. I don't want anyone else." She told me. I couldn't help but grin.

"Good, because I don't know what I'd do if you said no." I said while chuckling.

"That's it." She said while handing me her last handful of clothes.

"Why do you have three full suitcases of clothes? You're only eight!" I said in disbelief. "I forgot how spoiled you are." I said making her giggle softly. "Do you have anything else besides clothes you want to take with us?" I asked her.

"How long are we going to be gone?" She asked. I sighed deeply, knowing that she didn't really understand what was going on.

"Well Camryn, we're not really coming back to this house. You're going to be living with me and the boys now." I told her. She thought to herself for a moment before looking back up at me.

"But what about my bed, or my desk, or all our furniture?" She asked curiously.

"Auntie is going to sell our house for us and give everything away to people who need it. It's for a good cause, and we don't need it anymore. I'll buy you new stuff." I assured her. She simply nodded again.

"Alright we better go we have a plane to catch." I told her. I grabbed all of her suitcases and walked out the door with her. As I was loading her things in the taxi I saw Camryn running back into the house. "Camryn, where are you going?" I asked nervously.

"I forgot Henry!" She said with glassy eyes. I sighed and nodded understandingly. Henry's her favorite stuffed animal that our Dad gave her when she was a baby. She can't sleep without it. I finished loading the taxi when she came running out with Henry.

"Okay are you sure you have absolutely everything?" I asked her. She nodded her head and squeezed the stuffed elephant to her chest.

We got in the back seat of the cab together, and I told the driver where to go. As the car took off, we both watched as we drove away from our home. All of my childhood memories flooded my thoughts at once. That's when I knew a loving chapter in our lives had officially ended. Now it's up to me to make the best out of the new chapter that was just beginning for my sister and I. When we got to the airport I paid the driver and got Cam's stuff out of the trunk. After about 30 minutes of waiting, we finally boarded the plane. I held her hand as we found our seats and sat down. I gave Camryn the window seat, because she gets sick if she doesn't look out the window every once in a while. Luckily it was a small plane and not many people were on it. I felt more than ready to get back to the boys. They're my family too, and I needed them more than ever right now. I shook out of my thoughts when I noticed Camryn looking a little worried.

"The lads are excited to see you." I said nudging her arm. She grinned, but tried to hold it back. "It's been almost a year since you last saw them." I recalled. She nodded again, but I could tell something was up. "Hey, what's wrong?" I asked softly. 

"Am I messing everything up?" She asked me quietly.

"Camryn, why would you think that?" I asked a bit taken back by her question. Camryn just shrugged and played with her fingers. "Don't do that." I said tapping her shoulder. "Use your words."

"Well, you have to take me wherever you go."

"So?" I asked.

"So I'm messing it up 'cos you gotta watch me all the time." She said looking up at me with her big blue eyes.

"Camryn, we all chose this. We wanted this for you. Trust me, when we see the boys they're going to be so happy." I told her. She smiled slightly. "Don't ever think you are messing anything up for us, okay?" She nodded and rested her head on my shoulder.

I felt the plane start to move as we were about to take off. "You better get used to being on planes, because we fly a lot." I said making her laugh. "I'm gonna call Liam and let him know we're landing in an hour." I told her. She yawned in response.

The phone rang once before Liam picked up. "Hey, hold on let me get the boys!" Liam said. I smiled and played with the hem of my shirt. I heard him screaming their names in the background, and moments later they were all on the phone with me.

"Niall!" They were all shouting through the phone excitedly. I couldn't help but smile. 

"Hey boys, I'm just calling to let you know Camryn and I will be landing in an hour."

"Awesome! We'll be there in thirty minutes!" Louis said.

"Okay, I can't wait to be back." I smiled.

"And we can't wait to have you back!" Harry replied.

"Okay, see you soon." I said hanging up.

I looked over at Camryn to make sure she was doing alright. She had already fallen asleep on me, breathing softly through her pouted lips. I smiled and kissed the top of her head before looking out the window. I couldn't help but search through the clouds, thinking I would find my parents somewhere in there. I sighed and shook my head at my stupid thought. "They're gone, Niall." I whispered to myself before closing my eyes and trying to sleep it off.
