He's my son (One Direction)

Secrets Remain

The driver stopped and the guy on his right got out. Knowing he was going to open the door, I unbuckled Nathaniel and myself. Harry got out first with me following and last Nathaniel. Everyone's cameras flashed and Nathaniel started to rub his eyes.

"You okay Danny?" Harry noticed him covering his eyes.

"Daddy the bright lighs wurt my eyes." Nathaniel said rubbing his eyes again.

Harry picked him up and Nathaniel put his head into his shoulder, to block out the flashes. I rubbed his back and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

I was wearing a knee length silver sparkly dress. The left um boob side I guess was sparkly and strapless. The other side had a strap and was not sparkly. It was tan whitish with a silver sash on the mid section.

Harry was wearing a navy blue and grey plaid shirt, dark blue pants, and brown dress shoes. Nothing too fancy.

We got into the big semi crowded area. There was an inside area where people where dancing with tables all around. There was also and outside area with a pool also with tables around and band playing slow music with yet another dance floor. Classy yet parting. Harry carried Nathaniel because he was scared he would lose him. We found the table of all the four guys sitting down laughing and drinking.

"Ally!" Niall said and stood up to give me and Harry a hug. He noticed Nathaniel and shook his hand. The other guys did the same.

Zayn shook hands with Nathaniel and stared at him a bit. He came close to me.

"How old is he?"

"Three."

"Oh" he said and sat down again. Nathaniel walked over to me and say on my lap. I held his hands and put my arms around him. Zayn kept looking at him, he had a weird look on his face.

"I'll be right back babe, come with me Danny and we can go see the chocolate fountain!" Harry sounded so excited. He jumped off my lap and went with Harry.

Liam was dancing with Danielle and Louis was getting something to eat with Eleanor. Perrie was talking with them and Zayn sat down next to me.

"I didn't know you had a son." He said scooting closer to me.

"Yeah, Nathaniel." I looked at my hands while I fettled with my fingers.

"He doesn't look much like Harry or you." No shit. He does look like me, in a way. He has my nose and ears.

"I know, he looks like-"

"Me" Zayn interrupted me. I looked around for Harry wishing he'd come back soon. I sat back in my chair and looked at him.

"That's really funny Zayn, you were always a jokester." Alright, stay calm Ally. Remember what Oprah says, keep clam and remain strong.

"I'm not joking Ally, I'm not stupid." He looked me right in the eyes. It's okay, I can pass this off. Think think think..

"Your kidding right? Zayn, come on. Harry's his dad. I'm sorry if your disappointed."

"He looks just like me, how is he Harry's?" He looked around and kept his voice low, trying not to attract attention.

"He's Harry's, I'm certain." I said slowly and sternly.

I looked around and saw Harry was walking over to me, thank god. Zayn got up and went over to Perrie. He shook his hands and gave him a short hug.

"What was that all about?" Harry asked, sitting next to me, and putting Nathaniel on his lap.

"Nothing." I put my elbows on the table and my head rested over in my hands. That was close, way too damn close. Why couldn't Danny look more like me? Why God? Whyyy?

"Doesn't seem like it was nothing." He rubbed my back. I wanted to tell him but I didn't want to ruin the night with another argument.

"I'm fine, honest." I smiled and grabbed his hand. He gave me a short kiss on the lips and it helped sooth the fear down.

Zayn had his eye on me and Nathaniel the whole night. I had enough of sitting down and over thinking. I grabbed Nathaniel and slow danced with him. I was carrying him and handing his hand out with mine.

"Can I talk to you, please?" I turned around and it was Zayn.

"Sorry I can't" he still stood behind me.

"Why won't you just talk to me, it won't kill you." I knew he knew. It was pretty obvious. Maybe this is why he didn't want us to talk.

I went over and gave Nathaniel to Harry.

"Got to run to the ladies room." I told him and he nodded.

Zayn followed me into the room, I tried to shut the door to keep him away from me but he's too strong and fought his way through the door.

"I'm a bit confused Ally. I've been piecing this together in my head and it doesn't add up. Honestly, did you think no one would put together that Harry isn't his dad? Nathaniel doesn't even look a tad like him."

"You should keep your thoughts to yourself Zayn." I pushed passed him and made my way back to the room. Zayn grabbed a hold onto my arm and pulled me back.

"Don't give me the runaround Ally. It's not right to keep something like that from someone. How would you feel if your child was being raised by someone else?"

"I-I can't do this right now Zayn. It was hard enough to be pregnant at 16 let alone be a single parent. When me and Harry got together I told him, he said he'd help me raise him like he was his own. That's exactly what we're doing." I looked down and tried not to cry. This was not going to end well.

"You kept my own son from me? I'm his father, not Hazza!" He rubbed his hands over his face and took a deep breath.

Think quick, make a run for it, run Ally "Bye Zayn." I walked out the room back to Harry.
