It was Christmas. Today I tell Niall about the baby. I'm about a month and a half pregnant now. A small baby bump was starting to show, but luckily Niall didn't notice. We walked out to the tree to open gifts. I was so excited. I couldn't wait to see the look on Niall's face when I told him I'm pregnant.
"Ok. Here's your gift Princess." He said as he wrapped a necklace around my neck. It was absolutely beautiful. It was a gold heart with small diamonds on it.
"Niall, it's beautiful. Thank you." I said smiling at him. "Ok, I actually have two gifts for you."
"Baby, you didn't need to get me two gifts."
"Well I did. Here's the first one." I said as I handed him an envelope. He opened the envelope and a huge smile appeared on his face.
"You got us both passes to the golf course for an entire year?! That means I can finally teach you how to golf!!" He exclaimed and gave me a hug and a kiss. "But where's the second gift? There's nothing left under the tree."
"You wanna know where it is?" He nodded. "Alright, stand up." We stood up. I had the pregnancy test and the ultrasound in my pocket and I was going to give it to him. "Give me your hand." I took his hand. "Your second gift is right.......here." I said as I placed his hand on my stomach. His face dropped. I took his other hand and put the pregnancy tests and the ultrasound in it and it took him a moment.
"You're pregnant?!" I nodded. "Oh my god baby that's amazing!!" He said as he picked me up and spun me around, but gently of course. "Is this why you didn't wanna try when I said I wanna have a baby with you?"
"Yea. Because I already was pregnant. Remember in November when we had sex? We forgot to use protection. That day I went out with Livie to lunch and the mall, we did that after my doctors appointments. We're gonna have a baby Niall. We're gonna be parents!" I was crying at this point. He had the biggest smile on his face and so did I.
"Should we tell the others today?" He asked
"I think we should. Livie already knows. You can brag to everyone about how you got the best gift."
"Oh hell yes. This is gonna be fun."
We invited everyone over. The boys, the girls, and Niall's family. Everyone was in London, so we invited them all over. Apparently one of the Horan family Christmas traditions was to stand in a circle and say what your favorite Christmas present was. Oh this was going to be fun.
"Ok, I'll start." I said
"I'll go last." Niall volunteered
"My favorite gift was this necklace that Nialler got me." I said with a smile then looked at Niall, who placed a kiss on my lips. Everyone had their turn saying what their favorite gift was. Finally, it was Niall's turn.
"My favorite gift is this." He said and grabbed my hand and pulled me into his side.
"Uhm, hate to brake it to you lad, but you've had her for about six months now." Louis sassily said
"What he's trying to tell you is that..." I started and looked at him for permission. He nodded so I continued. "I'm pregnant. And I waited until today to tell him as a gift." The room was filled with shouts and congratulations
"OUR LITTLE IRISH LAD IS GOING TO BE A DAD!!!!" Louis yelled at the top of his lungs. Then something unexpected happened. Louis leaned over and kissed Charolette. WAIT WHAT?! Were they dating?! Niall and I both looked at each other in shock, suggesting that he saw it too. Niall decided to embarrass Louis, being a close friend, he was allowed to do so.
"WAIT! Louis! What was that?" Niall said. The room got quiet
"What was what mate?"
"Oh come on. Don't play stupid with me. I saw you kiss Charolette just now." Both Charolette and Louis blushed and everyone's jaws dropped open
"Yea. I've been meaning to tell you guys, but Charolette and I are dating now." Louis said. Everyone else was now congratulating them on their relationship. Niall and I decided to sneak out and into a different room where it was quiet.
"Are you scared?" Niall asked me
"For the baby?"
"Yea."
"To be honest. Yes. I am. But I know that I have you and you're not going anywhere, so I know it'll be ok."
"You're right on that. I'll be here throughout the entire pregnancy and the birth. I won't miss a moment of watching our baby grow up. So how far along are you? When's the due date?"
"I'm a month and a half pregnant. The due date is September 11."
"Ok. Right before my birthday eh?"
"Haha. Yes. Right before your birthday." We looked at the ultrasound. "You see the baby?"
"Erm. No. Where is it? Are you sure it's in there?"
"Yes, I'm sure. It's right there." I said pointing to the little peanut shaped figure on the paper
"Oh. It looks like a peanut."
"Hey! It's a beautiful peanut."
"Yes. A beautiful peanut indeed." We both started laughing.
"I don't know how you two are going to raise a child when you're so childish around each other all the time." We heard Louis chime in. The rest of the boys followed.
"Well you did just fine now didn't you Tommo. That's proof it works out eh?" I said, feeling sassy. "And besides, children don't have sex, so if we were always acting like children, then we wouldn't have had sex and I wouldn't be pregnant." I added. His face dropped. He didn't know what to say.
"Ooohh. Has my girlfriend just outsassed the sasser?" Niall said
"IM THE SASSER!! NOBODY CAN OUTSASS THE SASSER!!" Louis yelled.
"Hey Louis. Give me a number." I said
"Erm 3."
"Ok good. Now add 7."
"10."
"Ok now subtract 10."
"0."
"Congratulations! You've counted the number of fucks I give about who you are! Good job buddy!" I said. Yup. That did it. He's definitely been outsassed.
"The sasser has been outsassed...." Louis said
"Or maybe you spent this entire time thinking you were the sasser, when in reality, it was really me." I said. Louis started to fake cry and everyone laughed. What a great day. Niall and I fell asleep after everyone left. Something was different though. We slept in the same position as we do every night, but this time was different. This time I felt more protected than usual. I felt safer. I always felt safe and protected, but I think Niall is scared to be a dad and scared that anything will happen to either me or the baby, so he's putting it on himself to make sure nothing happens. I couldn't wait to bring this baby boy or girl into the world. I couldn't wait to raise them with Niall. He was going to be the best dad ever.
