Fight For Love
Honesty
Elena’s POV
I rolled off the bed and bolted to the bathroom. After I had emptied my stomach, I went downstairs in search of Niall. “Elena, have you seen Ni?” Liam walked out. “No, I was about to ask you.” “No one’s seen him all morning, not even Paul.” I ran back to his bedroom, “Liam!” He came running up, “What?” “Didn’t Niall have a backpack with his passport and stuff here?” “Yeah…” “Well, it’s not here now, he left.”
“Maybe he just went home for a little while.” I turned around, “Don’t you think he’d have told someone that he was leaving?” Liam thought, “Maybe he needed some alone time with his parents. I’m going to call him, ok?” I nodded. “Hi Mrs. Horan… He’s…Oh, ok; we just wanted to make sure he was ok… Ok, thanks, bye.” I looked at him, “And…” “And he went home to get some help from his mom; he needed to figure things out.” I sighed, “Why didn’t he tell us?” “I’m guessing he needs to be left alone for a while. If it’s this hard on him, I can’t imagine what you’re going through. And neither can he, that’s probably why he needs to talk things out with his mom.” I nodded.
Niall’s POV
Mum and I sat down and she told me that if I was scared about being a father to a child that wasn’t mine, I needed to say so, that if we didn’t communicate our feelings, that our relationship was doomed. I nodded, taking it all in. Being a famous teenage dad was never my plan, but I would do it anyways. After a week, I finally decided to go back to London. Everyone was happy t’ see me and kind of pissed that I hadn’t left a note. I kissed Elena and apologized to everyone.
“Talk to me Ni.” Elena took my hand and sat on the bed. “I’m just scared that I’m going to mess everything up, that I’ll hurt you or your baby or…” I trailed off. She pulled me into her arms, “Niall James,” she pulled my face towards her, “I trust you more than anyone else in the world. I will always need you. You are my best friend, and the love of my life. The worst thing you can do is leave.” I kissed her belly, “I’ll never leave either of you alone.” “Then, now that that’s settled, I’m starving.”
