"Liam we need to get like a birth plan done, because she is going to be born in the states." I say rubbing my belly in the bunk room, she is getting really big.
"What? No can't you come back?" He asks pulling on his shirt.
"No I don't think so at this point." We go over a large bump making me jolt to the side, but then I get something tight constrict around my belly making it's super uncomfortable, I grip my belly and groan.
"What was that?" He asks but I wait until it loosens up rubbing my belly, I really hope that's not bad. Soon it lets go and I sigh, that wasn't pleasant at all. Liam quickly neals down in front of me with his phone in hand.
"I don't know, but I'm sure it's fine." I wave it away pulling my pregnancy book for dummies and flipping through the pages to what that just was. Tightness and uncomfortableness in your stomach but doesn't come again is called a Braxton Hix. It does not mean you are in labor. "Yeah I'm fine, I am totally fine."
"What was it?"
"Just a Braxton Hix it doesn't mean I'm in labor, I have two months left until she can come."
"What! No she cant!" Liam panics pacing across the room.
"Liam if you are going to act like that when I go into labor then your not going to be anywhere near me." Turning the next page from where I was book marked.
"I didn't act like anything." He tries to get his cool again acting like a babe. Looking up to him serious I just shake my head.
"Babies are born two weeks early all the time, along with one month early, but my mom carried me four weeks over due because nothing worked to get me out and she didn't want to take me in to be induced, so I could carry late which I don't want. But still once I reach eight and a half months she could be born."
"Well let's plan on her being late then. Or maybe let's try to get her right on her due date yeah?" He kisses my belly before drawling little circles on it. "What should we name her? Her name is the most important thing really." I mark my book before closing it again laying on my side comfortably.
"I don't really know, I like Aubree."
"Eh, I don't see her as an Aubree, what about Zoe?"
"Ha! Never! I am sorry I don't see her as a Zoe." I chuckle, I'm sorry daddy offended you. I rub my belly laughing. "This is going to be harder than I thought."
"Yeah it's a name to a human being."
"Do you have any other names?"
"Rebecca, Chloe, Poppy?"
"No, those won't work, maybe as a middle name? See doesn't Aubree Poppy Payne catch on?"
"It does but not for our first."
"Or Raliegh? Raliegh Chloe Payne?"
"No, no, no! No way, how about this, it's a classic, how about we call her, Girl? Eh? That's a good one right?" I chuckle rubbing my belly, hey Girl! "Why don't we tell the boys the gender then ask them what they think about the names?"
"Liam I am going to win, I'm gonna push her from my va-jj and you don't, I have the advantage."
"We'll see about that." He hauls me up to my feet carefully, today I have lounged with a crop top revealing my swollen belly and button ring. I waddle out of the bunk room with Liam and see the guys covering their face in peanut butter. Eh! "Lads." Liam complains leading me onto a vacant seat on the bench.
"What it's fun Liam, you should try it but you can't because you became 'too mature' for the fun." Harry jokes smearing more on his face.
"Just hear us out, so what do you guys think the gender will be?" Liam asks trying so hard to reach out to them.
"Uh, we don't care it's not our baby it's yours." Harry shoves marshmallows on his face too purposely being a jerk just to push our buttons.
"And if you had a baby you would want the support from us so please be serious."
"We are we don't care about your wife or your baby, they are ruining not only your career but ours, did you think about that before knocking her up? I don't think you did, you just thought about yourself, we haven't even been famous five years yet and your already throwing us away." Harry's words strike me hard, right in the heart, I stand up to my feet quickly startling them all and storm off to the bunk room. I shove all my things in the suitcase frustratingly. Tears stream down my face I am tired of their verbal abuse I did nothing to them.
"Baby what are you doing?" Liam asks coming up behind me he grabs my hips but I just flinch away from him.
"Just don't! Dont touch me." I snap zipping up my suit case and pulling on my stray jacket over my shirt.
"What are you doing?"
"Thank you for everything Liam but I am done living here and ruining your life, so I am going to the doctor to see if I can get a flight back to Britain." Lugging my heavy suitcase past him rolling it into the main room past them all to see their smirks like they won. "Carl stop the bus, I'm getting off." I state, he slowly begins to pull onto the shoulder.
"Kali don't do this, you can't leave your pregnant." Liam grabs my arms but I shake them away frustrated.
"Just stop! You knew that this wouldn't work out that some way I would ruin it, so I am going. Bye." The bus door opens and I carefully bring the suitcase out of the bus.
"Kali you can't leave, what about our baby, she is mine too!"
"How much work did you really have to do for her? Did you keep her in you? Will you suffer through the pain of contractions and pushing her out? Will you get up with her every night and help her through everything? You say you will help but once you get tired of her and it becomes too tough you will dump her right on me. Because men don't have the mature instincts like I do, so I can't leave her. So I will see you in the future." Taking my suitcase I begin to walk in the opposite direction of which we are going.
"Kali! Don't leave me please we can get through this, I said I was quitting One Direction!"
"When? When I am dead?" I scream to him in frustration.
"No once I finish the tour." He steps closer but I take steps back.
"I can't stay in the bus any more, I need a place to crash a stable home it's not healthy for me or the baby."
"Then let's go get a house! Lets stop this and go get a house!" My blood boils that's a part that is ruining his career. But suddenly I become faint and weak to the legs. Holding onto my suitcase for support I grab my head. "Kali? What is it?" Liam races to me but I shove him away and he looks hurt.
"Just...get away...." I say weakly before my legs buckle and I fall to the ground weakly, soon my breathing quickly and I am hyperventilating. Liam rushes to my side, he begins screaming but I can hardly hear anything he is saying it's all a loud ring until I am fully laying on the road and everything goes blank.
~^~*~^~@~^~*~^~
"Kali? Kali are you awake? Can you hear me?" I hear Liam whisper, slowly opening my eyes I see Liam sitting across from me looking so worried, I feel oxygen on my face with a mask to keep it in. I look in the corner to see the guys in the corner with little toys in their hands and balloons. I groan annoyed.
"What are they doing here? What are you doing here? I am ruining your career."
"Just stop with that okay? They are here to apologize, you had an anxiety attack in the middle of the road, the baby she's not doing too good. Her heart rate is low, they said if she isn't better in two hours they are going to deliver her by C-section." I feel tears coming to my eyes, she can't come now, she can't she can die. Looking over to the baby heart monitor I see it's low and slow making me begin to cry, I grab my face and sob into my hands.
"Kali I am so sorry I shouldn't have said those things." Harry just about whispers stepping forwards.
"Just get out! Get out all of you!" I scream turning to my side in a ball, my baby. Gripping my stomach tightly I sob and sob, hearing them all leave the room Liam stays right by my side. I grab his hand with my shaky one holding got tightly. "Sing for her, sing a song." He hesitates for a moment before I hear him sing.
"Hey there Delilah I know times are getting hard but just believe me, girl someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar we'll have it good, we'll have the life we knew we would my word is good." His voice is shaky but those words stick out to me the most making me feel so much calmer, now I hear my heart beat steady slog with hers, coming back up to the steady strong best hers was. Looking up to Liam with joy I lift my mask off for a moment giving him a small kiss, parting I slip my oxygen mask back on resting and relaxing back against the hospital bed. These hospital beds are not as comfortable as in London.
