Niall Horan

"Thanks for meeting me, son." My dad said as I slid into the booth of a local dinner, the one where I first met my dad's fia- wife for the first time. 

"Yeah." I said. 

"I ordered for you already, if that's alright." He smiled. 

"Its fine." I mumbled. I did not want to meet him. Because he say ask, What happened? Are you okay? Even though, he won't mean a word he says. He didn't even care to call to check up on me after the wedding. Or when he found out about Holly. No, he called when both, my brother and mother told him too. 

So no, I have NO desire to be here. 

"You're awfully quite son, what's up?" My dad took a sip of his coffee. 

I laughed, cruelly, "This is really how we are going to do this? You are going to pretend you care about me?" 

"Niall, I-" 

"No stop. Look, I only agreed to come because it made mother happy. I'm not here to actually have a nice conversation with you. But since you want to know. Holly doesn't want our kid. Scarlett hates me, still. I almost lost my job at the Derby Club, everyone is up my ass about everything. Also, the fact you don't care to contact me till someone reminds you that you are my father. I guess you could say I have Daddy Issues.  So that's why I'm quiet."

His face fell, his jaw tightened, "Well, I am sorry you feel that way. I am sorry you are going through so much. What do you want from me?" 

"I want you to leave! If you only pop in once in a while then don't even fucking pop up at all! I am sick of getting my hopes of you being there for me. I have waited since I was fucking seven! You did not show up to any of my games or award ceremonies. I was lucky that you even showed up for my wedding. My fucking sham of a wedding. It's sad to think I spent over ten years wondering when my dad would finally make me a priory instead of an obligation." I exploded. I had finally said what I had held in for so long. 

He swallowed, "If that's what you want then-"

"Fuck, that's what I have always wanted. Jesus!" I yelled, scaring the few people that were in the diner. 

"Well, then. I'm sorry you feel that way. I'll just go." He stood up and threw a twenty on the table. Without another word, he was gone. I closed my eyes and groaned, "Shit." 

"Here's your strawberry cakes." I opened them to see a plate of strawberry pancakes. He remembered my favorite food... 

I was walking home after I left the diner. I tried to eat but I couldn't. I went off on him, it felt great at the time but now, I felt like an ass. I ruined any chance at mending our relationship. 

I was walking down the city square, people were laughing and talking as they passed me. My phone started to ring in my pocket, I pulled it out. 

The wind was nearly knocked out of me. It was her. 

Scarlett. 

"Hello?" I said after I got it together. 

"Hey Niall," She said, casually. I closed my eyes and stopped walking, I missed the sound of her voice. 

"Hi." i said, breathlessly. 

"Are you busy?" 

"No! I mean, not at all. What's up?" Smooth. 

"Well, I'll be honest. I kinda wanted to talk to you." I smiled. 

"Me too."

"So how have you been?" She asked. 

"Okay, I could be better. I found out the sex of the baby and you probably don't want to hear about it." Fuck. 

"No, no, no. I would love to hear!" She sounded genuine about it. 

"Okay, well, it's a girl. We're going to name her Ceclia." 

"Niall, that's amazing. Congrats, I am so happy for you." World shattered. It's not that she said that, it's that she not only said that but she sounded actually happy. Happy that I was out of her life. Even though God knows I wish it were her. 

"Thanks. How are you and Liam?"

"Um, we're," She paused, "Good." She lied. 

"Are you sure? Scarlett, you can talk to me."

"I know, we are good. I just don't want to bother you with that stuff. I just wanted to catch up and stuff. Niall, there's something I want to tell you."

My heart raced, "What is it?" 

"I- Oh Alex! Hey sweetie! I-I. Not right now. No, please don't cry. Hey Niall, I have to go. I am so sorry."

"Right, well happy birthday! Tell Alex I said hi." I smiled. 

"Will do! Thanks,Alex ow!" She hung up. 

A/n: Ending it there! Hope you all liked it! Now the offical name of the baby will be Ceclia Lana Scally- Horan! What do you think?
