*DISCLAIMER BEFORE YOU READ*
This is completely and utter Fan Fiction (obviously). This is purely for entertainment purposes. Just because Harry's character in this book isn't the ideal one to what you are used to seeing, I don't imagine him to be this way AT ALL in reality. Understand that just because he might be portrayed as someone rude in a book, that's not the actual view and idea the writer has of him; at least I don't.

It's for fun. Entirely for fun.

With that being said, I hope you enjoy.

ALEXANDRA

"Well aren't you Mummy's little cutie?" I chuckled down at my 7 month old daughter.

She squealed in delight; chubby face breaking out into a toothless, adorable grin.

"What should we do, Scarlett?" I cooed, bouncing her on my hip lightly.

"Should we go see what your uncles are doing? Yeah, come on." I grinned at my gurgling girl.

"Princess!" Niall shouted when he spotted Scar and I. The baby girl let out a massive squeal when she caught sight of her uncle.

"Who's that, baby?" I giggled, watching as she flashed Niall a toothless, crooked smile.

"Can I take her, Alex?" Niall pouted, I giggled softly.

"Course you can, silly." I smiled warmly. Niall cheered happily, leaning forward to cradle Scarlett.

"She's getting so big..." I sighed to myself, my eyes trailing after Niall and Scarlett who had disappeared to the front of the stage where the rest of the lads were.

"Hey darling, what are you doing here all lonely?" Liam questioned, coming out of his dressing room with a water bottle in hand.

"Oh, hey you. I just came out to see what you guys were up to. Niall has Scarlett, if you're wondering where she is." I chuckled, he joined in with my laughter.

"Where's- you know... Harry?" I hummed after a short, comfortable silence, looking up at Liam shyly.

"He should be with the rest of the lads, we've got rehearsals in a bit." He explained, to which I nodded.

"Well in that case, I'll be heading up there to get Scarlett. Don't want him to get mad. You should go out there with the boys, too. You've got a pretty big show tonight." I smiled tightly at the tall lad standing next to me. Liam pulled me into his arms and hugged me softly, placing a kiss on the crown of my head and beginning to sway our bodies from side to side in a calming manner.

"I don't know what's happened with him Alex, I really don't. I wish I could slap some sense into that idiot and make him realise how much of a knob he's being." He tried to joke, to which I giggled weakly into his chest.

"Thanks Li." I mumbled as I felt him kiss the top of my head. As I dried the few tears that managed to escape my eyes, Liam pushed back a few strands of my hair that fell over my eyes.

"Let's go get Scarlett." He grinned once I was in a more decent looking state. Nodding my head fondly, I grinned up at the Wolverhampton lad.

We made our way to the front of the stage and towards the rest of the lads who were running around after each other instead of rehearsing for their upcoming show later on in the night.

"Where's Uncle Li's favourite girl?" Liam gasped, playfully nibbling on one of Scarlett's tiny hands when he reached Louis who was holding my baby.

She of course was a giggling mess. I smiled to myself; just watching her be so happy makes my heart happy as well.

"Can you please take it away? We need to get back to rehearsals; we can't afford distractions." Harry snapped immediately.

Here we go again.

"Um... yeah. I came here to grab Scarlett so you all can get back to recording. I'm sorry if I interrupted anything. I'll see you boys later." I promised, emphasising on my daughter's, taking said baby girl from Liam's arms and into my own. I cradled Scarlett in my arms securely and waved goodbye at the boys, before I made my way backstage and toward the dressing rooms in search of Lou Teasdale.

NIALL

"For fucks sake, Harry! What the fuck was that?" Louis snapped after Alexandra had disappeared backstage with Scarlett.

"Nothing. We just need to get back to rehearsing, s'all." He mumbled not tearing his gaze from his bloody phone.

"As if we were actually rehearsing! I don't know what the fuck has gotten into you, but you better stop this fucking rubbish attitude you have against them. That's your girlfriend and daughter you're treating like garbage! You better step up your damn act." Zayn spat, before running after Alex and Scar.

I shook my head, completely disappointed by Harry's actions and attitude. I had nothing to say to him, so I just followed after Zayn and Liam.
