The Other Woman

Chapter Twenty-Six

I woke up the next morning, gross and sticky. I jumped in the shower, washed my body, hair, face and shaved before jumping out, drying my hair with the towel and wrapping another one around me. I got my toothbrush started as I walked back into the room and seen Niall snoring in bed. I shook him a bit and he opened an eye at me. "What?" He groaned and I rolled my eyes. "Get up." I said, barely audible with toothpaste in my mouth. I hurried to spit and rinse, coming out brushing my hair. "Please get up. We have stuff to do today." "Like what?" He asked, still not moving. "For one, your mom's birthday is next week and I'm sure she wants a present.." he nodded and I sighed. "Plus, we have our last concert in Seattle tonight, next stop, Cali beaches." My heart thumped. Home. I just wanted home.

"Oh yeah, we're we staying at your sisters house?" I shrugged. "Probs." He eventually got up and did the same morning routine as me. I did my make-up and got dressed, patiently waiting for Niall to finish doing his hair. "Babe.." I warned and he 'shh'ed me.' "Almost... done.." ten minutes passed before we actually got to walk out the door. Once we did though, we hurried shop to shop in a large strip to find something for Maura and Harry's new baby he told everyone about this morning. We needed up getting a few home goods for Maura and some candles and blankets. Niall was also planning on giving her $5,000. I said damn, and he said 'is it not enough?'. God is that boy rich. We finally reached the baby stores where I drool'ed over all the baby clothes and Niall certainly noticed. "Omg. Yes. Wait no that's cuter. Omg look over there that's so cute!!" I was definitely into this. Niall just smiled and nodded his way through the sore and before I noticed I had gotten 6 new outfits, two new blankets, multiple binkies and bottles.. I had probably $300 dollars worth of baby stuff in my cart. "Babe, you know I have enough money but this isn't our baby. I have to cut you off somewhere." He laughed a little and I nodded, knowing I'm too much. I ended up putting back an outfit and some little things she probably already has tons of but ended up putting a big box of diapers in the cart too. We finally checked out and went home, of course getting stopped a million times trying to leave because of Niall.

We finally made it home and I was tired already, but knew rehearsal started in an hour. I quickly made up the presents in the bags, put money in cards and sealed them. We had to put Maura's present in a shipment box because we sadly wasn't going to be able to fly to Mullingar. But, Harry was flying back to the states in three days so I was just going to give him the present then. Once Niall and I re-showered we left and went to rehearsal where we worked hard and long. Right after that was done we was shoved into another shower and into a dressing room.

The concert started in an hour and I was starving, desperately trying to get them to hurry on my hair and make-up so I could go get some food. Once they finished I jumped off the chair, running down the hall to the food table. Of course, I ran into someone not paying attention. "Sorry. I was rushing to the food table." I apologized helping up who I now realized was my boyfriend and we both burst out laughing. "Our fat asses we're both running to the food table." And we laughed harder. We walked to the food table together, grabbing food and sitting at a nearby table together. We sat and talked and had a genuine conversation we haven't had for a few months. It was one of the conversations that didn't have a continuous gap of not knowing what to say. We so comfortably talked for a half hour eating fried chicken. Once we were called to stage Niall grabbed my hand, pulled me close and kissed my lips softly. "I love you Rose.." I smiled and kissed him once, having to stand on my tippy toes. "I love you Niall." He held me close to him, and walked us both out on stage.

Concerts were fun and exhilarating when you got used to them and the constant screams. We did our normal set, dancing and back up singing for them as the boys worked every girl in the crowd. The shows come and go very fast, and before we knew it, it was over. On the final note, Louis was proud to announce to the crowd Harry had his baby, and the girls cried and screamed. We left on that note, hurring to get home and in bed.

Niall and I arrived back at the hotel around midnight and both just wanted to sleep. Niall opened the door as we both sleepily walked in. We kicked off our shoes, stopped our clothes and changed into our pj's. That consisted of a pair of panties and Niall's favorite graphic tee and Niall's boxers. He got in bed with me and pulled me to his body, the warmth transferring to me. "Are we going to have a baby soon? What about the wedding, we haven't really been planning much lately." Niall asked and I sat in silence. "I don't know. I mean, I'm ready for anything when you are. I love you, and I want to be with you." He kissed my head and snuggled his head into my neck. "I'm ready now." I smiled, turning my body to face him. "When's the wedding?" I asked and he kissed my lips softly. "How about we get married in Mullingar." Niall suggested and I scrunched my face a bit. "I always wanted a beach wedding.." "so you want me to fly my whole family here?" He asked in a serious tone and I nodded a bit. "Okay." He said and I smiled. "Thank you." I kissed his cheek lightly. "I was hoping the 28th?" He asked and I laughed a bit. "That's only two weeks." "So? I haired two girl to help you plan this wedding in two weeks. And you can decorate it how ever you want and you know I'm always here for opinions and advice. And of course I will try the food with you." I laughed a little and snuggled my head into his chest. "And what about the last thing? When's that?" I asked. "What? You mean babies?" I nodded and he lifted my head so I could look at him. "Whenever you want hun." He kissed my lips and I pulled his body closer to mine. "I'm ready now boo." He laughed a bit flipping us around so he's hovering over me. "Me too."
