Three months have gone by since Liam’s whole ordeal. The boys went ahead and continued with the tour while Liam stayed in the hospital and got better. I stayed behind as well to take care of any paper work that needed to be done for Liam to be put into a rehabilitation facility after his hospital stay. He ended up having 12 stitches in each arm and stayed in the hospital on lockdown for two weeks before he was able to be discharged into the rehab center. After he was released Hadleigh and I went to join the guys and everyone else as they finished the last three cities on their tour; After Madison Square Garden we flew home.

Now here we are three months later. Mine and Liam’s divorce has been finalized and he is now living with Sophia he is doing a lot better. He’s in a much better place than he was three months ago. It was touch and go for a while because he had lost so much blood we thought he wasn’t going to make it, but with each day he got stronger and stronger and was admitted to the behavioral floor then discharged to the facility and got all the help he need. As for the custody of Hadleigh, the judge gave us joint. So, I get her all week and every other weekend and Liam gets Hadleigh every other weekend and every other holiday.

Niall and I are doing great, we are living separately now but I think soon Everlee and him will be moving in with Haddie and I. I also found out that this baby is a boy, his name is going to be Asher Lennon Luxe Payne. I am currently 17 weeks and 3 days, Hendrix isn’t too far ahead of me she is now 20 weeks exactly and Annie bless her heart she is 24 weeks and looks like a hot air balloon. Today we are going to the end of summer fest in London’s Hyde park, there are carnival rides, games, a magic show, a circus and fireworks to celebrate the end of the summer. We arrive about two in the afternoon and let the kids play in the bounce houses. Louis has Ollie and Liv for the next six weeks so Hadleigh and Everlee will have so much fun playing with them for the rest of the summer.

“Hey guys H and I are gonna go find one of those olde time picture booths, so we’ll catch up with you later for the fireworks” Hendryx says

“Ok, be safe love” I tell her

Niall, Zayn, Annie, Louis and I take the kids to do some of the carnival rides; Annie and I of course not able to go on them but the boys take the kids and have a blast.

“Ouch” Annie says sitting next to me

“What is it?” I ask looking over to her

“Oh, nothing just a small cramp in my lower back. The doctor says they are the start of Braxton Hicks, but they hurt super bad at times.” She tells me

The guys are waiting in line for a roller coaster ride with the kids, it takes them half an hour to get through the damn line. Finally, the girls start to complain that they’re hungry, so we make our way to the food court. By this time Annie is doubled over in pain.

“Are you sure you’re ok love?” Zayn asks

“I’m not sure these pains are getting stronger and are hurting my back very much” she tells him as she leans on a post.

“Hey Haddie why don’t we get ready to leave ok, aunt Annie isn’t feeling well” I say to my daughter

She looks at me with disappointment and shrugs her shoulders. So instead of going to the food court we make a B line for the exit. We are about twenty feet away from the exit when Annie stops dead in her tracks as a puddle of water pools around her feet. She looked at me in fear then calls to Zayn.

“Love, my water just broke!” she shouts

All four guys stop and turn around.

“It’s too early still how can this be?” Zayn says panicked

“Ok lets just calm down and get to the hospital ok” Niall says

Hendryx, myself and Annie wait at the exit while the guys take the kids and go get the cars. We make it to the hospital in less than ten minutes but it doesn’t matter because Annie is shouting in loads of pain by now.

“Zayn hurry please it hurts” she cries out

“I am love, sit, sit” he ushers her into the wheel chair then takes off towards labor and delivery.

It takes about fifteen minutes before Annie is ready to have anyone come in her room. The doctor called for an epidural to be placed to ease her pain and she has been admitted. It looks like we are having babies today.
