fighting for what we want
Chapter 18
**Harry POV**
I am not a morning person. I mean seriously, it doesn't help what I heard last night. Like bloody rabbits. I barely got any sleep. I went downstairs and started to make myself some breakfast when I saw an iphone sitting on the bench. I haven't seen it before. I raised my eyebrow and picked it up and unlocked it. Pfff no password. I guessed it was Ruby's because of the fact that the home screen was her and Niall kissing... ew. I sighed and went to put it down when I got an idea. I debated whether I should do it or not, but I deiceded I should. I scrolled through her apps, mostly pregnancy ones, until I found her messages. My thumb hovered over the icon and I finally pressed it. I scrolled through the conversations until I saw one that caught my eye. One between her and some guy called Shaun. Who the fuck is Shaun? I looked at what they were saying.
<</strong>Shaun> Did he forgive you, Roo?
Yes, so far.
Did you tell him?
Yup
How'd he take it?
Pretty well. All goes to plan.
Perfect. Gotta go, love. Work time.
Okay, bye. Love you.
Love you, too.
I locked the phone and put it down, mostly confused but a little angry. Is Ruby cheating on Niall? I was snapped out of my thoughts by the sound of someone galloping down the stairs. I quickly returned to making breakfast and tried to act like nothing was happening. Ruby walked in, picked up her phone make some phone calls. When she got of the phone, she finally noticed me. "Oh, hey Harry" she said casually. "Could you keep it down? Other people live in this house too, you know" I snapped. She looked at me weirdly but then the penny finally dropped. "Barbeque?" she asked, trying to change the subject. Wait... what? "What?" I asked. She sighed irritably. "Barbeque" she repeated. "Yeah, I heard you... but... what". "Niall wants us to have a barbeque and invite people", she explained. "Oh". Great. Now I have to actually socialise with people? Fantastic. I went back to scrambling the eggs and frying bacon. I was lost in my thoughts when I felt a pair of hands wrap around my waist from behind. The person kissed me just below my ear, sending shivers down my spine, and whispered in my ear. "Hey" Louis said in a deep morning voice. I smiled and turned around. "Hey" I returned, kissing him good morning. "I made breakfast", I said. "Brilliant" he grinned.
**Niall POV**
I slowly opened my eyes and woke up from the best dream. Ruby and I had married and the baby had been born. We had a wonderful little girl. I smiled and rolled over only to be met with cold sheets. I sat up and pouted. I quickly got dressed and walked out into the lounge room to see Louis and Harry eating breakfast while cuddling on the couch. "Aww... None for me?" I complained, refering to the food. Harry smiled. "Buy me a drink first", he smirked refering to the fact that they were cuddling and Louis pouted. I laughed and walked into the kitchen to make myself some food but stopped dead when I saw Ruby already making some eggs. I grinned and walked up behind her. "You read my mind", I admired. She was startled and turned around holding the tongs like a weapon. I laughed and she put them down. "Jesus, you scared me", she breathed. "Jesus didn't scare you, I did", I laughed. She stuck her tounge out at me and went back to cooking. "When's the barbeque?" I asked. "2pm" she replied. "Wonderful" I said, moving to hold her stomach from behind. "Niall... I'm trying to cook", she warned. "Yes. Yes you are" I said sleepily, closing my eyes and rested him chin on her shoulder. Then my eyes snapped open and I let go of her and turned her around. "You shouldn't be cooking! You should be resting! Go sit down, I'll take over", I ordered. "Niall I-" she tried. "Nope! Sit, now", I said. She crossed her arms defiantly and pouted. "Ruby...", I warned. She shook her head. "Right!" I said and picked her up bridal style. "Niall! Let go!" she yelled. I ignored her and walked into the lounge room. She was struggling but I was way to strong for her. I plonked her down on the other lounge and she gave me a dirty. "Stay", I warned. She stuck her tounge out and crossed her arms. I went back to the kitchen and finished cooking the food and came back out with breakfast and some orange juice. "Niall you realy didn't have to", she complained. "Tough", I replied. She smiled lovingly at me and I grinned. Ruby and I were back together, and having a kid, Harry and Louis are together and we'll all live happily ever after. All was right with the world.I looked over at Harry and he was giving Ruby a dirty. I raised my eyebrow and he looked at me. He stood up, harshly grabbed my arm and dragged me outside with mutters of 'we need to talk'. When we got outside, he slammed the door shut and took at deep breath. "I think you should know something.....", he started.
