These are the names that Soph and Liam decided on for the babies. Yes Liam is awake now he has his memory and the doctor said he should make a full recovery. The babies are doing great too. They were born so close to midnight that two of them are born on a different day. Aviana and Alaric were born at 11:50pm and 11:58pm on November 5 while Gabriel was born at 12:04 am on November 6.

Two weeks later:

Liam and Sophia got to come home a few days ago. They’ve been staying in Liam’s old room at Niall’s house so Perrie, Taylor and myself can help take care of them. Today we are all going up to see the babies since they’re big enough now to hold for a bit. Anne has moved back home now too. Gemma has been put away for a long time, the wedding is coming up fairly soon and so is the boys comeback tour. Everything is falling into place but falling apart at the same time.

“look at this little beauty” Zayn says cooing at Aviana

“I know she’s such a sweet baby” Liam says

“Well obviously she gets that from her mom because you mate are far from sweet” Louis laughs

Taylor, Lou, Niall and Perrie are hovering over Gabriel while Sophia and I look through the incubator at Alaric, he’s got a slight cold so he can’t come out today.

“Harry come see the baby” I say

“Nah I think I’ll just hang back here”

“Oh c’mon styles” I walk over to him

He is sitting on the bench holding his head in his hands. So I sit down beside him to find out what is going on.

“What’s wrong?” I ask

“Everything” he states

“What does that mean Haz?”

“Well I thought I would have had more time to win you back but you’ve made up your mind, the wedding is closer and it’s obvious that you don’t care about me anymore.” He says

“Harry I told you Niall is it. Him and I belong together and yes I do love you but not in that way. You are the father of two of my kids Harry, I will always care for you” I tell him

After our discussion and everyone is finished visiting we go home. My phone starts buzzing as we pull up the drive.

“Hello dad” I say

“Cassie sweetie you’re going to want to come home” he says

“What why?” I asked my voice catching

Niall, Harry and Taylor look at me concerned

“its papaw baby, he’s not doing so well”

Dad explains to me that papaw went into the ER and had emergency surgery because of some blood clots that had blocked all the circulation to his lower leg. He had some trouble coming out of the anesthesia. Niall and I pack a bag, Taylor said she can watch the kids while Niall and I go to Iowa.
