Emma had never been so nervous in her entire life, which is ridiculous because just six months ago she was getting married to the man of her dreams and she hadn't felt nerves of this magnitude.
Yes, it had been six months since the wedding. Six months since she'd seen him. Nothing really had changed. Except that everything had changed. Their lives were going to be so different now.
She waited patiently at baggage claim, thanking god that the boys had managed to fly back without anyone noticing. She couldn't bear the thought of having to drop this bomb on Liam in front of a crowd of people. Not that she really needed to say anything. He would know the minute he touched her.
Liam caught sigh of her right away. She was standing next to the conveyer belt absently twirling her hair. She looked beautiful despite the fact that she was wearing sweatpants, his batman shirt hanging loosely around her.... Wait? Something was different about her. Her face, completely void of any make up, which was really how he preferred it, seemed to glow more than usual. And his shirt, which usually hung loose around her, seemed to hug her just a little bit tighter around her belly. But she couldn't be. Could she? The realization dawned on him just as her eyes met his and he dropped all of his things to the floor, taking of in a run until he reached her. He threw his arms around her, picking her up by the back of her thighs and kissing her hard on the lips.
"Why didn't you tell me?" His voice was shaky and even though her face was buried in his neck, she could tell he was crying.
"I wanted to surprise you." she whispered against his warm skin.
"Do you know what it is?" he asked softly. She reached into the pocket of her sweatpants and pulled out the sealed envelope she had been carrying around for a month and a half.
"I thought we could find that out together." Liam set her back down on the floor gently before taking the envelope with shaking hands. Suddenly the world fell away and all he could see was her and his baby. He didn't seem to notice how Zayn had fetched his forgotten luggage or how now all of the boys were crowding around them curiously. He looked from the envelope back into her eyes before sliding a nervous finger under the flap and tearing it open, slipping the paper inside out. He pulled her close to him so that her back was pressed against his chest and unfolded the sacred paper carefully. It was full of words but Liam only saw one of them.
"Well mate?" Niall asked nervously. "What's it gonna be?" Liam quickly wiped the tears from his eyes and smiled down at his beautiful wife.
"It's a boy." he whispered and everyone cheered.
