Niall Horan Child Preferences Book 2

#101 Your child is in a fire

Your POV

Niall and I had 3 children together, 12 year old twins, Ethan and Aaliyah and - year old, Isabelle.

"Ethan? Aaliyah?" I yelled up the stairs. Niall and I where going to take Isabelle to Niall's mums house and then get some groceries.

Ethan and Aaliyah came downstairs. "We are taking the baby to your grandmas house and then getting some groceries, are you coming with us or do you want to stay here?" Niall asked them while rocking Isabelle in his arms.
"How long will you be?" Ethan asked. "About half and hour maybe" I told them. "We'll stay here" They said in unison. "Okay, bye, don't break anything" I said chuckling. "We won't" Aaliyah giggled . "Bye mum, bye dad" Aaliyah said as we left.

*******

We where on our way home, we should get home in 10 minutes. Isabelle was now at Mauras for the weekend.
"I hope they've not broken anything again" I said. "I know, but they probably stayed in their bedrooms so I doubt they have" Niall said.

Niall's phone started to ring. "Can you answer that love? Put it on speaker" Niall said and I nodded.

I answered the phone and put it on speaker.
"Y..You need to get home right away! T.theres a fire at your house!" Liam panted sounding panicked .
"Oh my god!" I said and Niall started to drive faster.

We where home wishing 5 minutes.

****

The police , paramedics and fire crew was here as well as the boys.

We climbed out of the car and Ethan came running out covered in smoke and coughing.

"Mum! Dad!" He yelled but started coughing.
"Where's Aaliyah?" I asked quickly. "A..she's stuck! I .i couldn't  get her!" He cried.

Niall quickly began running to the house.
"Sir! You can't go in there! It could collapse at any moment! It's not safe!" A fireman and police man said to Niall. "I don't care! My daughters in there!" He yelled crying.

I took Ethan to the paramedics to be checked out.

Niall's POV

I ran into the house ignoring the people trying to stop me.

"AALIYAH!" I yelled more tears escaping my eyes. I put my jacket over my nose and mouth.

"DAD!! HELP ME! PLEASE DADDY!!" I heard my daughter yell.  "I'm..*cough* coming!" I shouted running towards her voice avoiding the fire.

I felt like I kicked something. I looked down and saw Aaliyah, stuck under something. I tried to lift it but I couldnt I kept coughing and Aaliyah had fell unconscious .

Something came over me and I managed to lift the board. I dropped my jacket as I took Aaliyah in my arms, picking her up bridal Style.

I ran out of the house coughing . I laid her down on the grass . I was still coughing. Just as I laid her down on the grass the house collapsed.

The paramedics took Aaliyah to hospital. Ethan was fine, he just had a couple burns that they had cleaned up. Liam offered to take Ethan to his house for the night while we went to the hospital with Aaliyah.

"Thank you for taking him" I mumbled hugging Liam. Liam was also crying. "It's okay buddy, I'd do anything.for you and your family. But tell me if anything happens to her, yeah?" He said and I nodded.

*****

Aaliyah was lied on the hospital bed, she still hadn't woken up. She was covered in cuts and burns, mainly on her and sand legs.

I was sat next to the bed holding her hand and y/n was next to me.

"I..it's my fault!" I sobbed suddenly breaking down. Y/n was still crying too.
"No, it's not Niall, don't blame yourself!" She cried.
"I was the one who let them stay home alone! I..I should've listened to you! Had them come with us" I cried placing my head in my hands.

"N..Ni, we left them for half an hot, w..we don't know how the fire started" y/n cried.

"B..but you saved Aaliyah. I..if it wasn't for you..s..she probably wouldn't be here with us now" Y/n sobbed.
"T..that doesn't mean it wasn't my fault" I mumbled.
"It isn't your fault!..s..stop blaming yourself! Y..you saved her life!" Y/n cried.
"Y..your risked your own life to save hers" Y/n cried.
"Id did for any of them..saving her life isn't anything amazing..i..it's just what any dad would do" i sobbed.
"No, not every dad would go into a burning house for their daughter. A..some dad's are too stuck up and leave it to the fire crews..y..you didn't..you saved her Niall...if..it wasn't for you ..s..she wouldn't be here! So don't blame yourself. You're an amazing dad to all 3 of our kids, you just need to not valentines yourself" she said. We both stood up and hugged.
"I love you, I'm sorry" I whispered crying into our shoulder.
"I love you too, she'll make it through this. Our baby girl is strong , she'll pull through" y/n whispered.

I heard a cough from behind me. I pulled away from the hug as well as y/n and we. It's turned to our daughter.

She was awake.

"Princess!" I said and rushed to her side and y/n rushed to the other side of the bed.
"How you feeling?" Y/n asked.
"S..sore, *cough* what happened?" She asked.
"Umm...your mum and I went to your grandmas and to et some groceries and Liam called us on the way back saying there was a fire at our house. We arrived home quickly and Liam was right, the whole house was on fire. Ethan got out but you were stuck" I explained.
"H..how did I get out?" She asked us.
"Your dad saved you, he ran into the house during the fire and got you out just in time, he ignored the fire crew telling him it was unsafe and could collapse" y/n told her.

Aaliyah looked at me. "Really? You saved me?" She asked and coughed. I nodded.
"I had too,I couldn't lose you" I whispered. She smiled slightly and coughed.
She wrapped her arms around my neck and I wrapped my arms around her being careful of her burns.
"Thank you for saving me, I love you daddy" she whispered. " I did what any dad would , I love you too princess" I whispered.
