Oblivion |N.H| •Sequel to Hired•

-Chapter 20

So I counted the votes today the 12th of March aka @Lelelehoran 's birthday :) Happy birthday again , I love you :) It was super close so here's what I counted and keep in mind I only counted one vote from each person, so if you had like two names in your comment I just took the first name written as your vote :)

1. Noah - 10 votes

2. Arabella - 13 votes

3. Charlotte - 7 votes

4. Brooklyn - 4 votes

5. Other suggestions - 12 votes - none had a significant amount of votes, there was a mix of names, the top being Madison or Gracie probably, I saw Kennedy a few times as well.

So, thanks for helping me choose the baby's name! I hope you're all happy with the name, Arabella won so that shall be her name :)

"Arabella Grace Horan, welcome home." Niall proudly smiled as he carried her inside in her carseat.

"Excuse me it's Arabella Grace Johnson Horan." I corrected him to which he just chuckled. Grace was my grandmother, so that's where we got her middle name. Although, I don't think middle names have much significance anymore.

"Oh shut up." He rolled his eyes fondly as he set her carseat down gently on the sofa. "Hi little 'un." He smiled, nudging her cheek gently with his thumb to which she just flinched but didn't wake up. He took the pink fluffy blanket that was wrapped around her, folding it up gently and placing it on the sofa.

I smiled when I saw the little onesie she was wearing, it made her look even smaller as she sat there in her carseat, although she looked tiny in that seat anyways. She was no bigger than a doll.

So, this is it, this is us home now.. with our baby? How are we even meant to look after her?

"Hey." Niall came behind me and wrapped his arms around me. "Want to go see the nursery?" He smiled, pressing his lips to my neck and kissing it gently.

"Oh my god yes!" I squealed and turned around to face him. "I totally forgot about that." I face palmed myself and then went to run upstairs, although considering I gave birth forty eight hours ago, I didn't exactly run. It was more of an awkward fast waddle.

Niall came behind me, holding Arabella against his chest as he followed me, one hand placed on her back, rubbing it gently and the other on the back of her head, holding it in place. "The key is in our bathroom, look in me shaving bag." He chuckled when he saw my face.

When I retrieved the key I unlocked the room and my eyes widened. It was amazing. I was stupefied. As I walked in my feet were met with fluffy carpet. The first thing my eyes caught was the crib, it was central in the room, against the wall and a sort of canopy over it, curtains hanging down over it. Everything in the room was pink, and looked like something you would most likely find in a princess' room.

He had gotten her a giant teddy which was perched in the corner, which I was a little jealous of if I do say so myself. I peered up at the ceiling and saw a chandelier. He really did go all out, I just hope our kid isn't wild and won't want to swing on that chandelier like Sia.

I walked over to the closet, pulling back the doors, my eyes widening when I saw how much clothes he had purchased for her already. There was an innumerable amount of puffy dresses and tutu's along with an unnecessary amount of onesies and other outfits. This kid won't be small enough for long enough to wear all these outfits.

"See, I couldn't let you in here, then you would of known we were having a little girl." He smiled, laying her down gently in her new crib and then walking over to me.
