5sos Pregnancy Series

Week 25

Ashton (his POV)
I was out at an after party with the lads. It was just the distraction I needed. I can't stop thinking about my girls. I chucked down another shot then started dancing again.
We I got back to the hotel at dawn. Maybe I had a little too much fun last night. I have the worst hangover possible. I ran to the bathroom and threw up a little. This must be what Mandy deals with everyday being pregnant. I should appreciate her more for carrying my daughter. I got back in bed. I had a few hours till our next thing. Last night was pretty awesome, I thought. Then I realized when the baby comes I won't get to have that kind of fun anymore. My life was basically ending. I began thinking of all the things I can't do when the baby's born. Am I ready to give all that up? What am I saying, yes I am. I'm getting older now and clubbing won't be that fun anymore. My life and a new life is starting, not ending. Yes the chapter to my young fun life was ending but a new chapter was going to begin. I can't wait to start that chapter with the one I love.
Calum (his POV)
"She sleeps alone, my heart wants to go home, I wish I was, I wish I was" We sang at a charity event. I started getting emotional on stage thinking of Rachel. Michael looked at me funny as he played the last string on his guitar. The crowd cheered and we walked off stage. "Hey Calum saw you get all emotional. We haven't played that song in years. Missing Rache?" Michael said when he finished chasing me. "You know it man." I said looking away. "I know it sucks but just imagine her face when your home. That's what I do." He said. He's right, the best part about being away from her is when I open the front door seeing her excited face. "How do you do it? Being away from your family like this?" I asked him. He chuckled, "I honestly don't know dude. Beer, maybe." "Thanks for the advice Mikey." We laughed. "Anytime." He responded. "How about you go to jewelry shop down town? I know Rache would love a little present." I thought of it, "Sounds like a great idea Michael. Lets go first thing tomorrow." I said. "Whoa your by yourself on that one. I'd kill myself looking around in a jewelry store. Do you how painful it was picking out the 'perfect' engagement ring?"
Luke (her POV)
Liz and I were out having lunch. It was her last full day with me before she took off and I was officially alone. I really couldn't have thanked her enough for being here. I stared at the flowers placed on our table for decoration thinking which wasn't good. "Sam darling are you ok?" She said ever so sweetly. "It just dawned on me that I actually have to deliver this baby and I'm scared." I told her. A million of fears went through my head about childbirth and after when I'm fully responsible for a life. "You have nothing to be afraid of. You're the bravest girl I know. Also Luke will never leave your side. It's totally normal to be scared. I was too but I made it through and so will you." She said putting her hand on mine. I smiled thinking of how great Luke will be but then another thought creep through my head, "We also have a million things to do. The baby doesn't even have a name! If we can't name the baby then how are we going to be good parents. I don't know Liz, The closer it gets the more doubts I have. I mean it's not like babies are returnable." I panicked. "Don't worry Sam. You have no idea what's coming. The minute the nurse hands you your baby, I don't know it's like something happens, some connection. You feel something special. Trust me." She said. "Thank you Liz, I'd honestly don't know what I'd do without you. I'll stop thinking now it's not good for me."
Michael (his POV)
"Mikey!!" Charlotte squealed excitedly when I answered the Skype call. "Charlotte!!" I said in the same tone. "We miss you so much! Look," she said holding up the ultrasound picture. I felt bad I missed her appointment. "There's my big boys! Getting bigger by the minute. I'm so sorry for not being there. One more week!! Then when I get back only a few more weeks till we meet our little men." I smiled trying to make her feel as though me being away isn't so bad. "I know I can't wait. I really wish you lost your passport this time so then you wouldn't of had to leave." She joked. I remembered the time when I actually did lose my passport and had to stay home. "Yeah that was one of the most inconvenient thing I've ever done. I can be such an idiot but I've never lost it after that. Don't want to brake that record! I hope you don't have two idiotic boys like me inside you." We laughed and chatted for the whole entire night. It seemed like a good idea to stay up with an early call time.
