Harry's POV:
"INSTINCT?! That is your excuse?! Instinct? What, you are going to accidentaly hit Bella and say it was 'instinct'?! You know what Styles, I have survived a pregnancy and two years, TWO YEARS without you. Don't call me babe. I will never be your 'babe'. Get out of my house. Now. And never come back." Wow, those words cut like knives. I regretted raising my hand the second I did, but now was not the time to apologize for my actions. With a sigh, I strolled out of the house. I screwed things up, bad. With my daugter, that I never even knew I had.
This sucks.
I slipped into my car and let my head rest on the dash. 'So this is what its like, being rejected by the person you love, and by your own daughter.' I thought aloud, whispering this phrase over and over again. I sat there for what felt like forever, letting the facts hit me: I was a father. I have a daughter. My heart suddenly ached for Chris. She had to go through a pregnancy and two years without me. I could have been there for her. I could have stayed up with Bella when she wailed so Chris could sleep; I could rock her and sing her lullabies. But none of that would ever happen. I have to make this right, for the sake of my daughter.
"You alright mate?" Louis gently knocked on my window, and I unlocked he door as a sign to come in. He sat with a sigh. "You messed things up Harry. Chris is upstairs balling her eyes out, and Bella is crying on Niall's shoulder. You need to get up there son. Not today, but sometime soon." My heart felt like it had broken into a million pieces. Louis was never serious with me, and if he was, there was always a joke tacked on to the end of his sentance. I waited for that joke, but it never came.
"Do you know,.. about how she did.. was it a long time, in labor.? Was she stressed? I.. I.." That was all it took, I was on Louis' shoulder silently weeping. "Hey, don't tear up man, you can fix this. Yes, it was a long while. Liam stayed with her most of the time, and I was there for a day," "A day? Isn't labor supposed to be for a couple hours, at the most?" "Harry, Chris almost died. She was in labor for three days, and Bella started stressing and began to lose oxygen. They rushed her into surgery, and saved both of their lives. They don't know what caused it, but they think that it was because she had a panic attack right before labor started, which stressed out Bella. But when she finally made it out though, she was a fiesty one. Always kept us on our toes.." He silently laughed; a tear of pure happiness had escaped his eye. I had a sudden surge of jealousy run through me, that should be me telling Louis about Bella's arrival, not vise versa. I missed all of these precious memories, and that killed me inside. "Hey mate." Louis interrupted me from my thoughts. He paused for a moment, waiting for a look from me to go on. "I just thought you should know, those scars on Liam's arm aren't from being mobbed from fans, those are from Chris. I have one too." He flipped his arm around to reveal what looked like a scratch, about three inches long. "Those pains really got to the poor girl. We didn't want to stress her out more, so we let her do whatever she felt comfortable, which, I guess, was scratching the life out of my arms." I stifled a laugh.
"God Louis, I need to make things right with her, but what should I do?" We sat there in silence for a little while, weighing our options. "I know! Invite her out for a Starbucks or something, go to the store, goof around like you used to. Remeber when you guys got kicked out of the store for riding in the electric scooters to fast?" I smiled at the thought. We had gotten yelled at by the manager; resulting in us leaving the store in a fit of giggles. "Yeah, I do. Louis, I need her. I want her back, with me. I want to be there for my daughter, I want to make things right, Louis," A wave of melancholia fell over me, leaving me sitting in my car, like an idiot, holding back my tears. "Harry, Chris has to go to work tomorrow, and Eleanor will be watching Bella all day, so you could try to talk things out with her tomorrow. But remember Harry, she isn't going to run back to you like any other girl, Chris isn't just any other girl. She has been hurt, by you, by everyone, and she has really closed herself off. Just start things off slow, and be really gentle, she has been quite fragile these past few months, having to work and be a mom. I assure you if you really want her back, she will see that, and fall in love with you again." Wow, did Louis and Zayn switch places today? "Thanks Lou, I'll do that. You're the best. Where are the rest of the boys?" I suddenly felt their absence, the car was really quiet. "They are still upstairs, I told them that I was coming to find you. Lets go home." With that, I felt a weight lifted off of my shoulders. Things were going to be okay, I was going to make things right.
I will get my Chris back.

Christina's POV:
I awoke to hear soft little snores, and realized that Liam was asleep next to me. I tip toed into Bella's room only to find her passed out in her toddler-sized bed. Stifling a laugh, I creeped into the kitchen to find a note on the counter. It read:
Dear Chris,
You and Liam fell asleep pretty quickly after Harry left, and after Niall sang her some songs, Bella was out too. We thought we would let you guys get some sleep, you seemed pretty tired. And about Harry, don't worry about him, he will come around.
Hugs, Zaynxx
The days events came rushing at me like a tidal wave, and I slowly felt the tears run down my cheeks. I suddenly felt someone envelop me in a hug, and I turned to find Liam there, whispering comforting words to me. "Don't worry, it will be okay, and if it isn't you still have me." I felt him laugh at the last part, and we stayed like that for who knows how long, him paitently holding onto me as I drenched his shirt. We stopped hugging when we heard a thump and a small cry, and I rushed to the hallway to find Bella on the ground, all wrapped up in her blankets, crying out for me. In one swoop, I had her in my arms, slowly rocking her like Liam had to me just seconds ago. "Mommie, who was that boy? Why was he yelling?" My heart shattered when I heard the last part, and I told her what popped into my brain. "Sweetie, that was one of Liam's friends, and he wasn't yelling, he was just shocked. He didn't realize how big you have gotten." Smooth Chris, smooth. "But don't worry, tomorrow you can go to Auntie Elles and everything will be okay. I gripped onto those last words for the rest of the day as they replayed through my mind:
Everything will be okay.
