If I Fell (narry)

Janet

Niall held his crying baby in his arms as he sat there waiting for the plane to take off, he tried everything but she wouldn't stop. He looks over at Harry and sees him looking the other way, he couldn't believe he hasn't offered to help out at all. He heard people whisper cuss words and he felt hopeless, she was obviously not having it. He elbows Harry hoping he'd take her and try to put her to sleep.

"So sorry, think she's teething." Harry apologizes to the people sitting around them as Maisie cried loudly.

"She's only three months old, Harry, I don't think it's because of that." Niall gently patted her back trying to soothe her. "This was a bad idea." He groans.

"Baby, your family wants to meet her. And I think it'd be cool to see where you grew up." Harry rubbed his thigh, stops when Niall mouths to him to not touch him.

"Maybe she needs a nappy change, a bottle, a mother?" An annoyed older woman says. "This is why men can't parent a child together." She mutters.

"Oh fuck off." Niall snaps at her, he didn't have the patience to deal with a homophobe.

"Niall," Harry widens his eyes.

Niall ignores him and instead gives Maisie her binky and she stops crying. "There you go baby girl." He breathes out in relief.

"Niall, baby, do you want to switch seats?" Harry asks nervously, he felt the angry stare from the woman sitting beside him. He was regretting sitting in the middle.

"Harry, no, you haven't been much help if I'm being honest." He glares at him. "Now shut up."

"I've been apologizing to everyone in this plane—"

"Harry, please." Niall glares at him, he wasn't in a good mood and was trying his best not to snap at him.

"I love you." Harry says trying to make him feel better.

"Listen to your rude boyfriend and shut your mouth." The older woman says to him with disgust.

"You know you can ask the flight attendant to switch your seats, if you'd like. Don't want you to be seated with such bad dads." He sees her shake her head at him.

"I paid for this seat and I'm staying here, you two can move."

Harry ignores her because he didn't want to keep going back and forth with her. He leans his head back and closed his eyes trying to take a nap, it was only an hour, he can handle it. Just as he was starting to doze off he feels a tap on his shoulder, he opens one eye and sees Niall with his nose scrunched up. "Did I fart?" He asks confused, opening both eyes now.

"No, pet did a poo." Niall sighs. "I have to go change her—"

"I'll go, don't worry." Harry takes the three month old in his arms. He turns to the woman next to him, she rolls her eyes and moves her legs to let him through.

"There you go baby," Niall smiles down at Maisie once he lays her in her buggy.

"I've got the bags," Harry walks up to them as he rolled the suitcase and threw the duffle bag over his shoulder. "All good?"

"Yeah, she's having a good stretch." He chuckles. "My dad is outside waiting for us."

"Okay." Harry follows him smiling once he sees Bobby standing by the car with the boot of the car open.

"My boy!" Bobby walks over to Niall and pulls him in for a tight hug. "How was it?" He steps back to check on his granddaughter.
