Heaven Couldn't Wait For You «Zarry AU»

~WEEK 6~

“We need names, Zee,” Harry murmured one night. He and Zayn were lying cuddled in their bed, watching television. Zayn nodded in agreement, turning off the t.v. and shifting to face Harry.

“You got any specific ideas?” Zayn knew this had always been one of the most exciting parts for Harry, thinking up all of the different names.

Harry nodded excitedly, placing his hand on his belly as he rambled to his fiance. “I know I wanna do something unisex, so that he or she can be happy with the name, no matter what. Like, if they turn out gay or transgender or whatever, they won’t have to like, change their name, ya know?”

Zayn nodded, understanding completely. “I like that idea. So our little angel knows that we support them no matter what and thought of every way to keep them happy,” he smiled, kissing Harry’s forehead.

Harry nodded, beaming at Zayn’s praise. “Exactly. So I was thinking Adrian, Kadin, Ryan, Skylar, or Ryleigh,” he said happily, waiting for Zayn’s opinions.

“Those are actually amazing. And if I know you, which I do, there’s reasons for them all. So, what’s so special about those certain names?” Zayn asked, smirking as Harry blushed slightly.

Harry cleared his throat, suddenly shy for no reason. “Well, uh, Adrian means dark, and I think that fits perfectly for your child. Kadin is companion, which doesn’t really mean anything about you, but I just adore that name. Ryan is little king, which again, it’s perfect for our kid, because you’re a king, my king.” Harry blushed, giggling as Zayn pecked his lips softly. “And I just love Skylar and Ryleigh, they’re just really nice names, to me.”

Zayn nodded, placing his hand on Harry’s stomach where his had previously been. “Those are great names for great reasons. It’ll be a hard choice.” He scooted down the bed slightly, kissing all over Harry’s still flat tummy. “I still can’t believe I’m actually gonna have a baby with you! It’s like, a dream come true! The love of my life and a perfect little baby to finish it off.”

Harry smiled down at Zayn fondly, running his hands through his hair as he went on about how happy and excited he was.

 

~WEEK 7~

Zayn and Harry decided that it was finally time to tell Harry’s family about the baby and engagement. And it was going pretty good, but not near as well as it had with Tricia.

Anne and Gemma were never really fond of Zayn. They blamed him for Harry’s leaving home and not being around often. Which Zayn understood, because it was true. Had he and Harry never met and started dating, Harry would probably still be at home with his mother and sister instead of in a totally different city.

They also just generally thought Zayn wasn’t good enough for their Harry. They said that since Harry and Zayn got together, Harry had changed for the worst, that Harry was a lot less happy now than he’d ever been. They were wrong. Harry was at his best now that he was with Zayn. He couldn't be any happier, and Zayn was a good person.

There were all sitting, Zayn and Harry on the couch, with Anne and Gemma in armchairs across from them. Zayn was looking down into his lap, and chewing nervously on his bottom lip. Harry,who was holding Zayn's slightly shaking hand, looked up and smiled.

"I'm just gonna get on with it. I'm pregnant and Zayn and I are engaged," he said quickly and proudly. He knew how his family felt about Zayn, and he knew how nervous Zayn was, so he decided to just be the one to let it out.

Gemma stared blankly at her brother, while Anne sat with her eyebrows raised. Gemma was the first to speak. "Well, I mean, that's great. The baby part, that is. N-Not that you two being engaged, is bad but... Yeah."
