Luttrellstown Castle, Dublin, Ireland

"Olivia. Olivia. Olivia. Oliviiiiiiiia! Oh-li-vi-AAAH?!"

"Can I just let him in, please? You know that he won't shut up." Mum says and I just nod. I take a deep breath and look at myself in the mirror again. All the planning since February, all the hours that me and mum invested into this day, all the stress since he proposed are hitting me like a wave as I look at myself, wearing the gorgeous white dress, which looks exactly like I had imagined my wedding dress to look like. It's perfect.

"You look good, Liv." Ethan says as he walks into the room. Mum closes the door again and smiles proudly at me. I turn around and look at younger twin brother, wearing a black suit.

"Thank you, but don't call me Liv." I smile at him but it quickly fades as I feel the nervousness building up in me again. It had stopped when we got here, but now it's coming up again. I turn around and look into the mirror yet again. The wave definitely just hit me. I feel like the stress from the last few months is visible on my face.

"Do I really look all right?" I ask and look at mum.

"Yes, do you. I told you many times before and I'm going to change my mind, okay? You look gorgeous." Mum smiles and walks over to me. She puts my curled hair back and steps next to me. I turn around to face her and she takes my hands in hers. I look down to my ring finger, seeing Niall's promise ring and my engagement ring. In a few hours, my wedding ring will join the finger and I'll officially become Mrs.Horan.

"I want to run away." I say it before I even think through the statement.

"Are you?" Ethan asks, raising his eyebrows at me.

"No. I'm done with running away." I promise him and myself.

Evelina Children Hospital, London

"Do you really up to it, gorgeous?" Niall asks as he parks the car in front of the children hospital. I nod and put my hand on my round stomach as I open the car door. "Wait!" Niall exclaims and gets out of the car. He rushes to my side and opens the door for me. He helps me out and kisses my forehead.

"Niall, I'm all right." I promise as I take a step to the side. He locks the car and puts his arm around me. We walk into the hospital and tell the receptionist that we want to visit the children who have to stay in the hospital during Christmas. It's what we do every year, it's a tradition. She smiles and leads us to the children. Like every year, we get led to the play room. Niall and I take a seat and wait as nurses bring more and more children into the room. Some we already met last year and some are new, all but recognize Niall and smile instantly when they see him. We spend a few hours playing with the children, Niall runs around with them, plays on the floor, while I, very pregnant und unable to move as much as I'd like to, draw or read with others. After a while, Niall comes back to me and kisses my forehead. "I need a break." Niall says, making me and the children laugh.

Suddenly pain rushes through me. I gasp. I put my hand on my stomach and feel that the baby wants to come out. Then, I feel wet between my legs, as if I just pissed myself. "The baby." I say, leaning over to Niall. "The baby is coming, Niall." I say, taking his hand and holding it tightly.

"The baby is coming! Nurse! We need a nurse!" Niall jumps up and runs out of the room. Moments later he comes back, followed by a couple of nurses who push a bed. "That's-that's my wife. She's-she's getting our baby." Niall panics but smiles.

Hours later, a nurse brings a little baby boy into the room after a doctor checked him through. Niall gets up from the chair and lets my hand go, which he has been holding since they took the baby. The nurse carefully hands our baby over to Niall and Niall gives him a little kiss on his little forehead. "Hello, Daniel." He mumbles and sits down on the edge of the bed.

"I want him." I say, opening my arms. Niall hands him over and little Daniel smiles.

"He's got your lips." Niall says and stroking my cheek. "And your hair."

"Your hair was just a dark when you were born, love, I saw pictures and besides, he has your nose and your eyes." I smile as it knocks on the door. Louis comes in with his son in his arms, followed by Liam and Harry who carry a little plastic christmas tree.

"So where's the little lad I've got to share my birthday with?" Louis asks as he lets his son down. He comes over to us and looks at Daniel with a smile. "He's definitely your son, Niall." Louis says, patting Niall on the back.

"Of course he is!" Niall chuckles. Liam and Harry put the tree in the corner, before coming over to us. Harry carefully takes Daniel off me starts introducing himself to the little boy.

"Congratulations, mate, but I thought you'd call your son Liam." Liam says smirking.

"Next one, I promise." Niall winks at him as I look up at my husband.

"Already planning the next one, aren't you?" I ask, making him laugh.

"Course I am." Niall leans down and kisses me, making me feel like the luckiest wife in the world.

Mullingar, Ireland

"Come on, Carly, get out of the car." I say to my little 3 year old daughter. Her older brother, Daniel, already ran ahead into the house while Niall took the two two year old twins, Liam and Aidan inside. The only one left in the car is Carly.

"No." She says. It has become her new favorite word.

"Princess, please, we can't prepare lunch if you don't get out of the car." I tell her as Niall comes out of the house. He walks over to me and puts his arm around my waist, giving me a kid on my cheek.

"Let me do this." He mumbles and takes a step forward. "Now, princess, would you please get out the car and come with us into the house?" He asks politely. I can't help it but laugh.

"No." Carly says and crosses her arms in front of her chest. "I want to stay here." She says with a smirk.

"Well, stay then." Niall says and takes a step back.

"Niall, we can't leave her in the car." I say, stepping forward but Niall pulls me back. He intertwines our fingers and smirks from ear to ear.

"If she wants to stay inside, she can. She's old enough, aren't you, princess?" Niall says chuckling.

"I am." She says proud.

"Well then, have fun in the dark, dark car. All alone, without your brothers or anyone else." He slowly closes the door as she starts screaming.

"Nooo, daddy, stop!" She exclaims. I press my lips together to not laugh as Niall opens the door again. "I don't want to be alone." She says, looking up at her father with her big brown eyes.

"I thought so." Niall says and takes her hand. He helps her out and lets her run into the house.

"You're so mean." I say, rolling my eyes. He just chuckles and puts his arms around me.

"I'm funny, not mean." Niall smirks and cups my cheeks.

"Whatever." I mumble as he attaches his lips to mine. We kiss and kiss and kiss before getting into the house, joining the kids and Niall's mum in the kitchen.

"Mummy, can we give daddy his present now?" Daniel asks, taking my hand and leaning me through the kitchen.

"Of course we can. Liam, Aidan, Carly, come on." I wave them over and they follow me to the hallway. I open up the closest and take out the box, which has our present for Niall inside.

"Can we carry it?" Liam asks and I nod. Liam and Aidan carry the box into the kitchen, followed by me, Daniel and Carly.

"Close your eyes, love." I say to Niall as Maura takes our her camera. Niall sits down and closes his eyes. Liam and Aidan put the present on his lap before stepping aside.

"Open your eyes, daddy!" Carly exclaims. Niall opens his eyes and slowly opens the box. His eyes widen and his smirk goes from ear to ear. He takes out the photo album and opens it up. He looks through the old pictures of us as kids, then as preteens, then as a couple, then as husband und wife and then the pictures of our kids. A tear rolls down his cheek.

"Daddy, why are you crying?" Aiden asks, taking his hand.

"Because he's happy." I answer for Niall as a tear rolls down my cheek.

"Mummy, why are you crying too?" Liam asks, taking my hand.

"Because she's happy." Niall answers for me and takes my other hand in his.

"I love you." I smile and kneel down. "And you and you and you and you." I kiss each of our children on their heads before kissing Niall on the lips.

I've found my happiness and I'll never it go again.
