Chapter 100

"I'll be home in a few weeks. I promise I will be home in time for the appointment to find out the gender." Harry informed me as we loaded his things into the car.
"I know, baby. I already put the date in your phone and I gave it to Paul as well. He promised he'd have you home too." I grinned. Harry pulled me close and kissed me deeply. I wound my arms around his neck and pressed my body to his as much as I could.
"It really hurts to leave right now." Harry murmured, placing a hand on my stomach.
I smiled, "I know. But you'll be home soon and then you'll be here when he's born. Then we have a wedding and a couple of years to just be a family." Harry nodded and kissed my lips tenderly. He then bent down, lifting my shirt a bit.
He kissed my growing belly softly, "I love you, buddy."
"Darcy! Come kiss Daddy goodbye!" I called out to the four year old talking to Sophia. Darcy dropped their little conversation and ran at Harry.
"I love you, babygirl." Harry whispered to Darcy as he hugged her tightly.
"I love you too, Daddy."Darcy whimpered.
Harry kissed her head, "Remember to be really good for Mummy. Help her as much as you can while she tries to make your brother grow. She really needs you babygirl."
"I will, Daddy. I will take care of Mummy." Darcy assured him.
"Good." Harry beamed at her. He kissed her little cheeks one more time then pulled her into another tight and loving hug. Harry released Darcy then looked to me again. He kissed me sweetly, cupping my cheeks with his warm and gently hands. "I love you, Noli. I love you so much." Harry murmured between the slow, tender kisses.
"I love you, Harry." I smiled into the kisses. "Stop worrying." I chuckled when he placed his hands on my stomach again. "Soph is staying home and much to Niall's dislike, Brynn is too. I will be just fine. The baby will be fine and Darcy...well she's still going to call you three times a day." I giggled. Harry pressed his lips to my forehead. "Go to work." I laughed pushing him at the car. Harry nodded and released me. He slid into the car with the other boys. Sophia came to my side and took my hand in hers.
"He's the sweetest man." Sophia whispered to me as we watched the car pull away. I nodded with a smile. "Come on. Let's go in." Sophia pulled me toward the house.


"Do you guys wanna stay the night?" I asked of Sophia and Brynn as I readied Darcy for bed. Sophia lifted her eyebrow. "The house is too quiet without Harry. I don't like it." I stated sadly.
Sophia nodded, "I feel the same way when Liam isn't home. I'll stay."
"Me too! Girls' night!" Brynn cheered.
I laughed, "Thanks."
"Ooooh! Can I stay up if Auntie Brynn and Auntie Sophia are staying over?" Darcy beamed at me.
I shook my head, "No, babygirl. You have to go to bed. You were naughty this morning when Daddy was trying to pack." Darcy pouted. "I know, you don't want Daddy to leave. I don't either but you can't be naughty. It hurts Daddy's feelings when you do that. So you are going to bed because Daddy said that's what was going to happen." I informed her. Darcy still pouted but nodded. "Maybe you'll get lucky and Auntie Brynn will tuck you in." I smiled at Darcy. She nodded once again, but her eyes were sad. "What's wrong, Darcy?"
"I want Daddy to tuck me in." Darcy whispered. Sophia and Brynn frowned and looked ready to cry.
"I know, honey. Daddy wishes he could be here to tuck you in. But he'll be home soon and he can tuck you in then. And I promise we'll call him in the morning, okay?" I smiled weakly at my daughter.
"Okay, Mummy." Darcy murmured. I pulled her close once she had her pajamas on. I kissed her hair and forehead as I hugged her tightly. Darcy held me just as tightly, burying her face in my chest. "Can I kiss brother goodnight?" Darcy inquired looking up at me. I nodded with a big smile and leaned back against the back of the sofa. Darcy lifted my shirt gently and kissed my stomach lightly, the way Harry had been telling her to. I glanced over at Sophia and Brynn. They were smiling at the way Darcy was kissing my stomach. "It's okay, brother. Daddy will be home soon." Darcy whispered to my belly. I brushed her hair away from her face as she said a quiet goodnight to my belly.
"Give me a kiss." I smiled leaning forward. Darcy kissed my cheek. "Do you want to ask Auntie Brynn to tuck you in?" Darcy turned to Brynn.
Before Darcy could say a word, Brynn said, "I would love to tuck you in, munchkin!" Darcy giggled.
"Say goodnight to Auntie Sophia." I instructed Darcy. Darcy rushed over to Sophia, holding her arms out for a hug. Sophia hugged her tightly and kissed her head much like I had.
"Auntie?" Darcy murmured. "Can I say goodnight to your baby too?" Darcy asked shyly. Sophia leaned back slightly, letting Darcy raise her shirt and kiss her stomach. "Night night baby." Darcy whispered. I bit my lip and tried to hold back my tears. Darcy kissed Sophia's belly one last time before reaching out for Brynn.


Brynn took a seat beside me on the sofa, "You're daughter is amazing." I laughed quietly. "No seriously. Amazing. I love how much like the both of you she is. It's so weird but it's so awesome. Sometimes, she sounds so much like you then sometimes she sounds just like Harry. I can't wait to see if this one is a perfect blend too." Brynn said laying her hand on my stomach. I placed my hand over hers out of habit. "You do that to Harry?" Brynn inquired, pointing out that my hand was on hers.
I quickly removed my hand, "Yeah. Sorry."
"Don't be sorry." Brynn giggled. I relaxed into the sofa as she took her hand off my stomach. "Do you guys have things planned for the new baby? Names and stuff?" Brynn asked.
I shrugged, "Some things. We have a few names picked out. We won't decide until he's born. Harry has this whole big plan for a nursery when he gets home. Darcy is all about it too. They have everything picked out and they're going shopping for it when he comes home in a few weeks. Those two have an entire nursery designed for a boy and for a girl, just in case we're wrong about it being a boy. I live with crazy people." Brynn and Sophia started laughing.
"What about a baby shower?" Brynn beamed.
"Gemma and Anne are all over it. They have a date picked. They are spoiling Darcy by getting her a bunch of gifts as well." I informed them.
"Hey! What if we have a "You're Going To Be A Big Sister" party for Darcy? Get her a little cake and some presents." Brynn asked of Sophia.
"Guys..." I tried to protest.
"Please? We didn't get to do a baby shower for her." Brynn stated sadly.
"It'll be our way of making up for it." Sophia tried to say it as gently as possible. I bit my lip and agreed, trying not to cry once again.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that." Brynn frowned.
I shook my head, "No no. It's okay. You're right." I tried to smile at her.
"Um, can I..." Brynn turned bright red. "Can I ask about you and Harry before?" She asked nervously. I lifted my eyebrow in confusion. "Harry won't talk to ANYONE about what happened the first time you were together. He has only ever told me that he met you in an art gallery, that he bought some of your work. But I can't get him to say anything else."
"Brynn." Sophia sighed.
"What? I love them both and I just want to know. I've seen all of this back and forth about the way things were before but I wanna know." Brynn snapped a bit at Sophia.
"Well, you were told that when I met Harry I was married, right?" I asked Brynn. She nodded sadly. "Okay, well it was very hard for Harry. He...he didn't want to end it but the fact that I was struggling to get out of an extremely toxic marriage was very difficult for him to deal with."
"Toxic marriage?" Brynn inquired. I then began to explain to her the long story of Charles, Harry and I. All of the good that Harry and I had in Ireland and Italy. Even the time that I spent on tour. Her face would light up when I told her about all of the good with Harry and I. "Why was Charles toxic?" Brynn inquired softly. Sophia frowned as we looked into each others eyes.
"Charles was abusive. It didn't escalate to flat out physical abuse until after I met Harry but still he was a monster of a man. You remember when he showed up at the house on my birthday?" I reminded her.
"That was your ex-husband?" Brynn appeared shocked.
I nodded, "That's why Harry was so upset."
"Why did you guys break up? I mean, obviously you were still in love with him when we went to your show and Darcy is his. What happened?" Brynn was genuinely curious. Sophia frowned again as we both recalled the benefit and the morning after. I began to tell Brynn the story of what had happened, how Harry had lost his mind in front of everyone and got into a fight with Charles. Brynn grimaced as I told her how Harry and I argued in the hotel room for a good half hour before he ended it. "But you had filed for divorce!" Brynn shouted. "It would've been fine! Why didn't you tell him?" Brynn exclaimed.
"Brynn, you don't understand how hard that year was. You don't. I wanted what was best for him. I love him so much that I was willing to walk away so he could have what he needed. I was devastated. I didn't move or speak for at least a month. Then I found out I was pregnant and everything just got worse because I didn't know who her dad was. It was better that we were apart." I tried to convince her.
"But he was a mess. He...I saw how everyone treated him when I met Niall. He...I don't think I'd ever seen Harry happy, not until you walked back into his life." Brynn sniffled.
I frowned a bit, "I know. But we don't know that Harry and I would've made it here." I smiled and placed my hand on my belly, "With another baby on the way. Getting married. Whose to say that we wouldn't have broken up from the stress of the band after Zayn left or him doing solo stuff, modeling, the movie. It just...I think maybe we needed to be apart for a while."
"I think you're wrong." Brynn grunted. I looked at Sophia with shock. "But I'm glad you're together now. I'm glad you're both happy. I think you deserve it after everything you went through the first time around." Brynn smiled. I took her hand and squeezed it gently.
"I'm with Brynn. You guys deserve all of this. I can't wait for the wedding. I'm going to cry like a baby seeing that." Sophia giggled.
"You'll be like eight months pregnant, of course you will." I teased. Sophia poked her tongue out at me. "Since I let you ask me about Harry and I, then I get to ask about you and Niall." I smirked at Brynn.
She grinned brightly, "I met Niall at a golf thing. My dad owned the golf course and one of the big tournaments that Niall played I helped my dad set up. I ran the check-in table. Of course I was caught up by those baby blues and that accent. And he was so sweet to me. We threw a party in the club house afterward. Niall and I started talking when he caught up to me. He told me he liked my smile and that my eyes are pretty. He asked for my number." Brynn giggled, "And the rest is history!"
"Yeah. I think I remember him telling me about you actually. I got a text about a beautiful girl that had a smile like sunshine." I smiled at her. Brynn blushed and nodded. "I'm glad he found you. For the longest time he was alone and I could tell that he wanted to be with someone but he was worried about being with the wrong person."
"If he doesn't marry you, he's a fool." Sophia added. "You two are perfect for each other." I nodded, agreeing with Sophia's statements.
"Well, we have to wait for Harry and Enola to get hitched first." Brynn turned pink in the cheeks once again. "Which who do you want in the wedding? I know that Harry is probably going to have Louis be his best man. I mean, all that Louis has done to get you two back together. Harry would be silly not to pick Louis."
"I'd like you and Sophia to be in it. I want my best friend Katy to be in it as well but her kids are in school at that time so it might be a little difficult. I could try. I know Harry would like her to at least be there." I replied. "It's too far out to decided everything I think. Maybe in a month or two I'll have that all laid out in my mind." I smiled at them.
"Well I think we should look at dresses. Now would be a good time to start, I know that you're pregnant but you're getting married like a month after you have the baby. Your size will probably be the same." Brynn suggested. I shrugged and ran my hand through my hair. "E." Brynn whined. "You're supposed to care about this stuff. It's your wedding."
"I know what I want. I've told Harry what I want. We agreed on simple things. We're having a down to Earth wedding so I can give this baby the most serene gestation so he doesn't freak out about anything. I've got a plan." I assured her.
