Telling The Boys You're Pregnant

Niall: Niall had become extremely worried and careful around you. He didn’t want anything to mess up the pregnancy. You loved how protective he was becoming, finding it cute. The two of you joined the boys for a barbecue at Zayn’s. You had been suffering from morning sickness for most of your pregnancy thus far and hadn’t left the house all that much. You were excited to finally see the boys again. When you arrived, Harry scooped you up his arms and span you around. You caught Niall’s expression as Harry twirled you and it could only be described as pure horror. “Careful Harry! Put her down!” He instructed. Harry laughed, but did as he was told. “Calm down, Niall, I’m not going to steal your girl. He laughed again. Niall frowned. “Just, be careful okay?” He repeated. “Nialler, what is up with you?” Louis asked, confused by his behavior. “I’m pregnant,” You announced, “Niall’s just gotten a tad bit protective.” You smiled at him. The boys all rushed over to Niall and lifted him in the air. “Yeah man!” “You’re going to be a dad!” “You did it bro!”

Louis: Louis had invited you to go to the studio with him. You were really nervous to tell the boys that you and Louis were going to have a baby. Louis assured you that they’d be excited. You knew they had a new album coming out and were going to get busy again very soon, and you didn’t know how the boys would take the news of a baby. You walked into the studio and saw the boys lounging around waiting to start. They all greeted you with hugs and smiles. You started freaking out. You pulled Louis out into the hall. “Babe, I can’t. You tell them we’re pregnant and then let me know how they react.” You suggested as soon as you were in the hall. He shook his head and pulled you back in. “You’re pregnant?” Niall asked when you entered again. He had an excited look plastered across his face. “How did you know?” Louis asked. “We could clearly hear you.” Liam smiled. “I’m so happy for you!” Zayn enthused. 

Harry: After getting doctor conformation that you were in fact pregnant, Harry couldn’t wait to tell the boys. “They are going to be excited!” He pleaded. “We have to wait until we’re through the first trimester.” You reasoned. You knew your effort was futile. Harry had all the boys over for dinner the night after you found out, “Just for dinner.” You knew he would tell them. After dinner, you were all sitting around the table and Liam was pouring everyone drinks. “I propose a toast!” Harry said, getting to his feet. He raised his glass and everyone else followed suit. You raised your water. “To this family.” He toasted. You all drank. “You’re not drinking?” Liam said, turning his gaze to you. “She can’t!” Harry beamed. “Harry,” You cautioned, knowing that it wasn’t going to stop him. “We’re having a baby.” He confessed. “You weren’t supposed to say anything yet!” You laughed as the boys surrounded you both in a huge hug. 

Zayn: Zayn was very private about his business, but he didn’t like hiding things from the boys. He understood why waiting a while was the best decision in this regard, but you knew he was excited to finally tell them they were going to be uncles. When the time finally came, you were visiting his mom to tell her. “Let’s just call them. I think they’re all having dinner together tonight. Get them on speaker maybe?” He suggested, eager to get his news out. “Yeah, let’s try that.” You agreed. He dialed Liam’s number. “Hey, are you all together?” He asked after Liam answered. They both put the phone on speaker. “We have something we wanted to tell you guys, and we just can’t wait any longer.” Zayn started. “This better be good, we stopped a game of FIFA for this.” Louis announced. “Oh, it’s pretty good.” You laughed. “We are expecting a baby in a couple months.” Zayn said, smiling up at you. You heard silence before an explosion of cheers came through the phone. “Was that worth pausing the game?” Zayn asked. “WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL US SOONER!?” Louis cheered. You both laughed, happy the boys were just as excited as you and Zayn.

Liam: You were dying to tell the other guys, but Liam was following all the rules. “We can’t get them excited yet. What if something happens? I can’t hurt them like that.” He rationalized. How much he cared about his band mates, or brothers as you liked to call them, made you even more excited to tell them. But, you waited. Once you were out of the grey zone, Liam said you could finally tell them. You and Liam had just purchased a new house in preparation for your growing family, so you had the boys all over for a housewarming party. “So Li, I thought you two liked your flat in central London?” Louis asked as you showed them the backyard. “Well, we did.” You said. “It just wasn’t really appropriate, considering.” Liam finished. “Considering what?” Zayn asked. “Well, we’re going to have a little Payne arriving in 6 months. We needed more space.” You smiled. “Wait, a little Payne?” Niall questioned. His eyes went wide as the thought clicked in his head. “Oh! You’re pregnant?!” Harry excitedly asked. “Daddy direction is actually going to be a daddy.” Liam smiled.
