It's been a month since Luke and I got together. Peighton has been a lot nicer to Luke ever since she learned he wasn't going anywhere. Matt thankfully didn't give us any more crap for being together. He also hasn't said anything about what Luke said that day he came over. With Luke, he has fully taken up responsibility of Peighton. I can tell he's really trying. I've never see him more determined for anything else, not even his music. Right now, I was sitting with Peighton in my lap, while Luke, Michael, Ashton, and Calum were all recording for their next album. I would smile every time Luke looked over to us, and make little kissy faces to our beautiful daughter. She would even giggle every once in a while when Luke would make a weird face. The recording session was going well, that was until Matt came in, fuming about something.
"Luke, I need to have a word with you and your boyfriend," He said, starring daggers at me. The boys came out of the booth, and I handed Peighton over to Ashton. Luke and I walked out into the hallway, already dreading what was about to be said.
"What is so important that you had to interrupt our recording session?" Luke asked. I could tell he was annoyed because once he got into the zone, he didn't like being disturbed.
"It's about that little child in there. Why would you take her out into public? The fans have seem her with Luke over the past month and they don't want to believe that she's your daughter. So, I've come up with an idea that you can't really turn down. Zayn and that demon child will need to stay indoors. No more going out in public with her. We don't need a child ruining the image of the band," He said in all seriousness. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. He even had the nerve to say that we couldn't even go outside.
"No. You can't tell me what I can and cannot do with my own family. If I want to take my daughter out to the park, then I will. If I want to take them both out to spend time with them in a place other than his house, then I will. She's going to need to go outside. She's a child. She's got to much energy to stay indoors all day. Hell, I'll even admit that she's mine, just don't force Zayn and Peighton into confinement. They aren't causing any damage. I've seen what the fans have said. They seem to like that fact that im helping out with a child. Now I need to finish recording for the album. Goodbye," Luke said, grabbing my hand, and pulling me into the studio. In a way I'm glad he didn't let me talk because lord knows that man wouldn't have a face anymore. I've also seen what the fans have said. They think Peighton is cute, and want to know where she came from. She did just sort of appear out of no where to them. I stopped Luke before we went back into the studio they were recording in, and brought him into a hug. I wrapped my arms around his middle, and I felt him lay his head on mine. I could slowly feel him loosen up.
"Hey, he knows nothing about us or our family. Don't listen to him. I know you want everyone to know she's yours. I want the whole world to know, but I also don't want to ruin your career. You just started out, and on top of making an album and touring, you have to be a father. I don't want to stress you out any more than you need. But I will be right behind you if you want to tell everyone she's your daughter, too," I whispered into his chest. I could feel him nod, and he let go of me. He took a couple of deep breaths before he went into the studio. I followed right behind him, and grabbed Peighton from Calum. I was confused as to why he had her until I saw that Ashton was recording on his drums.
I sat back down on the couch, and Peighton feel asleep almost instantly. I knew she was tired because I woke her up at ungodly hours this morning to spend time with Luke. I rested her head on my shoulder, and I cuddled her up into my chest. I heard the click of a camera, and I looked up to see a smiling Luke typing away on his phone. I heard a ding on my phone and looked at the notification I got from Twitter.
"@Luke5SOS: Look at my cute baby girl sleeping on Zayn's shoulder<3"
I couldn't help but smile at the picture that attached to it. You could clearly see the smile on my face, and the fans were going crazy about it. They wanted to know who he knocked up, or if she was just adopted by the whole band. They kept commenting on how cute she was. There was the occasional person saying that Luke shouldn't have posted that, and that she wasn't really his child. And then there people asking who I was, and why I was holding "Luke's precious baby". I almost laughed at that one.
Soon, they finished recording, and we were all leaving the studio. Luke grabbed Peighton so I could stand up, and I smiled when I saw her cuddling into him. She even had a little smile on her face. I could tell that made Luke happy because she always woke up when you moved her. I rubbed her back, and grabbed Luke's hand, pulling him out of the studio.
"So, I was thinking of taking you out later. We have been together for a month now, and we've only gone out once without Peighton. I love her to death, but I would like a night out, just us two," Luke said. As we got closer to the doors, I could hear the screaming of their fans. Luke's hold around Peighton got tighter as we approached the doors.
"I would love to. Maybe get the boys to watch her. Or Harry and Louis. They always love watching her. Liam is busy and, I don't think Niall would survive the night knowing she's your daughter," Luke just laughed at what I said, and nodded.
"Let's take her to Harry and Louis. I think the boys need a break too. I know they love her, but she can be a handful at times." I nodded my head, and let go of Luke's hand as soon as we go to the door. I smiled, just thinking about how much my life has changed since Luke reappeared. Maybe just maybe my life could be better, but knowing me, luck was never really on my side.
