Never Looking Back

Chapter 21: Growing Up

Chapter 21:

The drive back home to Julia's was long and boring. I wanted to sleep some more when I got home, but I have Elle to take care of. Zayn was at a photo shoot with the guys and I was home. "Elle sweetie, come here please." I yelled from across the house. Elle wasn't being herself, she was being more disobedient and didn't do anything I told her too without throwing a fit sometimes. I guess she was growing up. "Yes mommy!" She screamed running down the hall. "Don't run please!" I yelled from the kitchen. "Elle, you have to listen to me okay." I said nicely. "Okay" she nodded. "Okay thank you. Now go back to playing." I smiled at her as she skipped back down the hallway to the playroom. I loved her so much, but she was getting bigger. It made me frown, she was my baby.

< ZAYN'S POV > (finally!)

All I wanted to do was go home and see McKenna and Elle. They were my life. The sound of Louis' phone ringing interrupts my thinking. "What?!" Louis screamed into the phone. We all waited until he was done talking on me. He back in crying, and fell on the couch. "Louis what's wrong?" Harry asked sitting down next to him. "El..." He sobbed. "What happened?" He asked. "She broke up with me!" He screamed running down the hallway. "I hope he's okay." Niall said chopping down some popcorn. "I'm going to go talk to him!" Liam said walking down the hallway. The photo shoot was finally over after the whole day. I felt kind of bad for Louis, I knew that he loved Eleanor. Well, I kind of had a feeling she didn't really love him back.

The ride home was so boring and long. After driving half an hour which seemed like an entire life time, I got home. I open the door and Elle comes running towards me. "Daddy!" She screamed. "Hey baby." I smiled picking her up. "Stop screaming Elle!" I heard McKenna yelling from the kitchen. "Babe it's okay. Screaming good!" I chuckled as I set Elle down. She went running back down the hallway. McKenna was in the kitchen making dinner. "Hey babe." I said kissing her soft lips. "Hey." She said sadly. "What's wrong I asked getting a water bottle. "I don't know. I guess I'm just sad that our baby is growing up." She said sitting down across from me. I pull her into my lap. "Yea me too. But she can't stay a baby forever." I said hugging her. "Yea you right." She smiled right when the phone started ringing...
