A month later

It was a Christmas evening, Harry was sitting on the bathroom floor, clutching the pregnancy test in his left hand. He placed his right hand on his tummy and smiled down at it.

They were back from their romantic honeymoon which was quite pleasurable yet painful for Harry's rear. They were currently living in Zayn's  big 4 room apartment after their marriage with their little pumpkin, Zayra.

"I can't wait to surprise your Papa and sister. I haven't seen you, but I already love you. I promise, I'll protect you from every evil thing in the world.", he whispered down to his tummy.

Ding dong

Someone rang the bell, making Harry smile. He knew, it was his husband and daughter, back after having their father-daughter bonding time over a  ice cream treat.

He got up and opened the door only to be met with a smiling Zayra in Zayn's arms and a sweet kiss on the lips from his husband.

"Hey baby, you okay now? Did you take rest? Did you throw up while we're gone?", Zayn asked entering their apartment  placing Zayra on her feet while Harry locked the door behind them.

"Dada, we got you ice creams", Zayra squealed in happiness making Harry chuckle. He kneeled down to her height and placed a kiss on her forehead. He then stood up and hugged his husband.
"Hey", he whispered into Zayn's ear making a shiver ran down his spine.

"I'm okay. I didn't throw up after you guys gone, so don't worry.", he whispered again kissing Zayn's earlobe.

"O-Okay", Zayn stuttered and looked over to see if Zayra was still there.

"Don't worry, she's in her room. I can see she's playing with her barbie dolls.", Harry whispered as he was facing Zayra's room.

"O-Okay", Zayn whispered, as he tightened his grip on Harry's waist.

"I have to tell you something. I got to know the reasons behind my sickness. And it'd serious Zayn.", Harry said in a serious tone, but smiled mischievous as Zayn couldn't see him. He then made a straight face and broke away from the hug to look into Zayn's eyes and then held down his head. His curls, covering his face.

"H-Harry, what happened baby?", Zayn said, scared as what is coming his way. No , he couldn't afford to loose Harry, not after all these years. He can't. Harry's his everything.

Getting no answer from his husband, he pleaded again, placing his hand on his cheeks, "Harry, baby, please tell me. You're getting me worried. Please don't tell me I'm gonna loose y-you. I-I can't Harry. You're my everything. P-Please tell me you're okay.", Zayn said, tears sliding down his cheeks.

Harry couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't see Zayn crying. So he took Zayn's hands off his cheeks and placed them on his t-shirt clothed tummy and looked up to him, smiling.

"I'm not okay Zayn, 'cause I'm perfect. This happened", he said, placing his hands over Zayn's on his tummy, smiling at his husband.

At first, Zayn couldn't understand anything, but when he did, his face expressions changed from confused, to realization to shock to happiness.

Tears instantly gathered up in his eyes and he looked up Harry in questioning eyes. And when Harry nodded to him, smiling and in all tears of joy he couldn't help but pick him up in his arms and spin him around, making his husband squeak.

"I'M GONNA BE A PAPA AGAIN!!!!", he screamed in happiness while spinning his husband. Zayra came out of her room holding a Barbie in her hand and looked at her parents with confusion as to why her Dada and Papa are crying while smiling.

"Papa, dada, why crying?", she asked innocently.

Zayn put him down and they both kneeled down to their daughter.

"Baby, you've always wanted a sister or brother right?", Harry asked his pumpkin softly.

Zayra nodded happily.

"You gonna have a sister or brother.", Zayn said softly to his daughter, making her eyes light up.

"Really?", she squealed.

"Really." They both said.

"Yay, Santa gave me my gift." She squealed making her parents smile.

"Yeah, 'cause you are a good girl", Harry smiled and hugged her daughter. Zayn hugged them both from behind his pumpkin.

"Thank you, for giving us the best Christmas gift ever.", Zayn whispered to Harry at the night, as he cuddled close to his husband and drifted off to a blissful sleep. Thanking God, for this beautiful life.

2 months later

"Congratulations, you're having twins.", Summer said, as the three looked at the monitor, seeing two peanuts sleeping their peacefully. Tears rolled down both of their cheeks making Summer smile warmly at them.

Yes, she moved to Doncaster after getting into a relationship with Niall. And now, she's here, in her own clinic being Harry's Doctor. She was glad that she could deliver her niece/nephew(s) this time.

"I'll give you two some time", she said, walking out of the room.

"I love you so much", Zayn said, kissing Harry on the lips through the tears.

"I love you too Zayn.", Harry said, kissing back with equal love.

2 more months later

"You and your babies are perfectly healthy. So do you want to know the gender?" , Summer smiled at them at she rolled the wand on Harry's gel covered tummy.

Harry and Zayn both looked at each other, smiling goofy as they both know their answers.

"No, we want it to be a surprise.", Zayn said, smiling wide. He leaned down to peck his husband's lips quickly. Summer smiled at the both and said, "you both are so cute. I can't wait for the babies to arrive."

They smiled up at her. They couldn't wait either.

4 more months later

"Ugh, I hate you Zayn.", Harry screamed at Zayn as another contraction hit him. He was in the hospital bed with Zayn by his side and his family and friends surrounding him. Zayn, like the understanding husband he was, leaned down and kissed his sweaty forehead.

"I know baby, I'm sorry. I love you.", he cooed at his husband, who was currently in too much pain.

His words seemed to soothe Harry down a bit 'cause after sometimes he replied, "I love you too."

"Okay, 10 centimeters dilated. Now he's ready for the C-section", Summer grinned down at Harry who simply rolled his eyes making everyone in the room chuckle, including Zayra.

"Best of luck Dada. Wuv you", Zayra said, kissing her Dada's cheek while they started taking him into the delivery room.

Harry smiled at his daughter through painful eyes and said, "Love you too Pumpkin."

"It's a girl", Summer said and she pulled out baby A from Harry's tummy after Anaesthetic him, making Zayn cry out in happiness.

"You want to cut the cords?", Summe asked her cousin softly as he nodded through the tears. He came forward and cut the umbilical cord.

The nurse took his baby daughter away making him frown in confusion. He couldn't even held his daughter and they took her away.

"Don't worry, they just took her for checking and cleaning her up. They'll bring her after sometimes", smiling she said, making Zayn sigh in relief.

"It's a boy", Summer whispered softly as she held baby B in her hands. Smiling down at him.

Zayn's eyes became teary again as he came forward to cut the cord of his newborn son. And again they took him away, but this time, Zayn knew they gonna be back after sometimes.

He walked back to his husband who was being stitched from the C-section, still unconscious from the anaesthesia. He leaned down and kissed his forehead.

"I'm so proud of you. Thank you for everything Harry. I'll never leave you again. I'm sorry, I was a fool to miss out these all at the first time. But I promise, I'll never leave you or my family again. I love you all so much.", he whispered against his forehead.

Harry opened his eyes slightly and said, "I love you too Zayn, I trust you."

And Zayn knew, he did.

"So, what did you two decide to name these precious angels?", Trisha asked as she held the baby girl in her arms.

"Yeah, tell us, we've been waiting to know their names for so long.", Anne said as she rocked her now sleeping grandson in her arms.

Harry, who was cuddled into zayn's chest giggled, but not so loudly that could wake their pumpkin up from her sleep. She was sleeping beside Harry, hugging him. Harry smiled down at her and  playfully asked "So what do you think? We should tell them Zaynie?"

Zayn chuckled as both their family and friends rolled their eyes at them.

"Okay, okay, time to reveal the names. So for our baby girl.", he paused and smiled down at their baby girl who was sleeping in in Trisha's arms, "It's Alveena Louise Malik"

"And for our baby boy", Harry paused to look at their son in Anne's arms and said, "It's Sam James Malik"

Both of their families congratulated them and praised for the names they chose for their children. Their friends thanked them for naming them after them and walked out of the room after sometimes to give the couple some privacy.

"You know, I can't even express how Happy I am right now. You've completed me Harry, in every way. As a person, human being. I can't ask you for more, except more babies.", Zayn said and cheekily winked at the last part making Harry roll his eyes.

"Zayyyynnnn", he whined and cuddled more close to his husband making Zayn chuckle.

A comfortable silence blanketed the hospital room and all they could hear was their children's light snores from beside Harry and the two cribs provided by the hospital.

"You know, I wouldn't take anything back if I would have given a chance.", Harry whispered against Zayn's chest.

"Not even the stupid bet?", Zayn whispered, running his fingers through Harry's curls.

"Not even the bet.",Harry whispered.

"Why?", Zayn whispered.

"Because, somehow, between the bet and the heart break, I've found you, my love, a perfect husband, a perfect father and I can't ask for anything more. I love you Zayn, and I trust you.", Harry whispered.

"I love you too Harry. I was a stupid to value a bet more than you, but yeah, you're right. Maybe that was our destiny. Maybe that's the way we were destined to be met, through The Bet. I love you Harry, I'll never leave you, ever. I promise.",Zayn whispered against his soft curls.

"Then seal you promise with a kiss", Harry said playfully, leaning up, puckering his lips.

"Gladly", smiling Zayn said and sealed his promise with a lovely kiss on his husband's lips.
