Chapter 16:

I saw Becca running up to me; my arms were open to give her a hug.

Her face was red - oh gosh. What just happened to her?

"What happened daddy?", Becca asked.

"I don't know, but you'll be okay, sweetheart; I promise.", I told her.

I think I am a good parent, and Caitlyn told me so.

*Flashback*

(Few months before Darcy and Dylan were born)

"Have you come up with any names yet?", I asked Caitlyn.

"Not yet. Do you have any ideas?", she asked back.

"For a girl, I chose the name Darcy. You already know that.", I answered.

"What if the baby is a boy?", Caitlyn asked.

"We'll come up with a name. Don't worry.", I replied.

"You'll be a great father.", she told me.

"And you'll be a great mother.", I whispered.

*End of flashback*

After a while, the doctor walked in the room.

"You must be Rebecca's parents.", she said.

"Yeah. I'm Harry, and this is Caitlyn.", I replied.

"So, do you know what happened to Becca?", Caitlyn asked.

"Yes. Becca is fine now."

"Why was her face red a while ago?", I asked.

"Does she have any allergies?", the doctor asked me.

"We adopted her, but I think Caitlyn knows.", I answered.

"Yes. Becca is allergic to cats. She must have gotten sick when she saw Brooklyn's new kitten.", Caitlyn explained.

"Okay then. I'll see her in a few weeks for a follow-up. It was a pleasure to meet you.", the nurse said.

"It was nice to meet you, too.", I said politely.

"Do you want to go home, sweetie?", I asked Becca.

"Yes, daddy.", she answered.

"Okay. Let's go.", I told her.

"Daddy, where's Teddy?", Becca asked me.

Teddy was the stuffed bear that I gave Becca for Christmas.

"I haven't seen him. Sorry, sweetie.", I answered.

"But I can't sleep without Teddy!", Becca complained.

"Okay. I'll look for him."

Apparently, Teddy was hiding behind the couch in the living room.

"I found Teddy!"

"Thanks, daddy. I love you.", Becca said.

"I love you too, sweetheart. Now, go to sleep. We have a busy day tomorrow.", I told her.

Caitlyn's POV:

"Are you okay, Caitlyn?", I heard Liam ask.

"I'm just nervous.", I answered.

"You're sweating.", he told me.

"It's all just pre-show nerves. I'm the first act to go on stage.", I replied.

"Here, have some water.", he said.

"Thanks, Liam.", I replied.

"Caitlyn, you're on stage in a minute.", Simon exclaimed.

"Ready, babe?", Harry asked me.

"I guess so... yes.", I answered.

I walked on stage to see thousands of people screaming.

"You can do this.", I whispered to myself.

"You can do this."
