“I’m late,” I said to Dani the moment she walked through the front door only ten minutes after I called her.

“Late for what?” She asked chucking her bag on the couch and walking into the kitchen to get a drink. I followed her.

“Late, late.” I said. She looked at me confused.

“You are going to have to be more specific.”

“My period is late.” I watched her eyes widen as she placed the glass of water back down on the counter.

“How late?”

“Two months and ten days.”

“TWO MONTHS?” she screeched at me making me wince. “Why are you only telling me this now?”

“Because I didn’t think it was a big deal. It’s pretty normal for me to not get my period some months. But...” I trailed off looking away.

“But what?”

“Well I forgot that while Harry was you know away on tour, I went off the pill. But you know when we flew out to see the boys in Australia for two nights. Well...” I trailed off again not needing to finish the sentence.

“And you didn’t use a condom?” She sighed as I shook my head.

“So you think you’re-“

“I don’t know.” I said quickly cutting her off.

“You need to buy a test.”

“And how do I do that exactly. I can’t walk into a store and buy one. The paps will go nuts!”

“Well neither can I. We need someone who’s not famous...” Dani trailed off. My eyes lit up instantly, I knew who.

Dani and I stood around the house impatiently waiting for Ricky, my uni friend, to turn up with the test. The doorbell rang and we both ran to the door practically ripping it open and pulling Ricky in. He looked at us scared for a moment before giving me the bag.

“So I just pee on it?” I asked Dani unsure. She nodded at me. I sighed before walking into the bathroom and read the instructions before peeing on the stick. I opened the door and Dani and Ricky walked in.

“So now we wait.” Dani said as we stood there awkwardly.

“What are you going to do if you are?” Ricky asked. I buried my head in my hands and shook my head.

“Do you want a child?” He asked.

“Yes, of course. And with Harry it’s even better. But just right now isn’t a great time. I mean I want to start my dancing career; I only have one more year left of uni. This would kind of ruin that. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want it. I mean if I’m pregnant. Then well yeah I’m pregnant. I just...” I trailed off knowing I was rambling by this point. Ricky wrapped his arm around me.

“It’s going to be okay.” He whispered softly into my ear.

“I think we can look now.” Dani said glancing at her watch. I sighed before reaching towards the stick. I closed my eyes for a moment and took a deep breath before opening them and looking down at the stick.

My heart jumped as I stopped breathing. There was a plus sign on the stick. My eyes widened in panic for a moment as the tears slowly fell.

“It’s positive,” I whispered out. I heard their intakes of breath as they watched for my reaction. My left hand slowly reached down and touched my stomach gently. I was pregnant. I had a child growing in my stomach. My child. Mine and Harry’s child. We had created a child. I slowly let a smile spread across my face.

“I’m pregnant.” I said louder and smiling. Dani and Ricky smiled back before pulling me into a hug. I let out a squeal of excitement as my grin grew wider. I was going to have a baby.

I laid sprawled across the couch tapping my fingers impatiently on the material as I waited for Harry to come home. It was nearly midnight but Harry had been out all day for working and would be at a benefit tonight. He said he would be home at about 11 but I was still waiting.

I finally heard the front door open at about 12:30. I sprung up from the couch and practically ran around the corner to the front door. Harry jumped in surprise with his jumper half off. His hand clutched at his chest above his heart.

“You scared the crap out of me. What are you still doing up?” Harry asked confused. “I know I said I would be home earlier but we got held up.”

“I’ve been waiting all day to tell you something,” I said stepping forward. Harry looked at me hesitantly.

“Okay? Can’t it wait till tomorrow though? It’s almost past midnight love. You need to sleep, I need to sleep.” He said softly, clearly thinking I had lost my mind. He grabbed my hand and began to walk in the direction of the stairs. I didn’t follow; instead I tugged on his hand making him stop. He glanced back at me curiously as I tugged his hand closer to me. He stepped forward still watching me.

I pulled Harry’s hand close enough so it rested on my stomach. He glanced down at it before looking up at me. I could see the confusion in his eyes.

“Are you okay?” He asked softly. I nodded, grinning largely.

“Better then okay.” He began to open his mouth and say something but I couldn’t keep it in anymore.

“I’m pregnant.” Harry froze, mouth half open ready to talk with his hand still pressed to my stomach.

“I’m sorry. What did you say?” He asked slowly. Well slower for him anyway.

“I’m pregnant Harry. We’re pregnant.” I said smiling as large as possible watching the recognition flash across his eyes.

“Pregnant?” He asked stepping forward and glancing down at his hand still resting on my stomach. I nodded at him. He whispered it a couple more times still looking down at my stomach before finally looking up at me.

His large grin matched mine before he crashed his lips to mine. I smiled into the kiss as I wrapped my arms around his neck. His arms wrapped around my waist before lifting me up and spinning me around in a circle still kissing me. I eventually pulled away, laughing loudly as he continued to spin me around.

“WE’RE PREGNANT!” Harry yelled, his laughter joining mine as he continued to spin before finally putting me on my feet, steadying me as my head began to spin.

“I can’t believe this. We’re pregnant. You’re pregnant. You have a baby in you. We made a baby.” Harry rambled staring at my stomach with wide eyes.

“So you want this?” I asked him.

“What? Of course I bloody well want this. I mean it’s a little earlier then I would have planned and I would have wanted to get married first. But it’s perfect. Absolutely perfect. I mean you’re pregnant. We made life, how could that baby not be perfect?” Harry asked smiling at my stomach. I smiled at him happily.

He suddenly dropped to his knees and pulled my waist closer to his face. I stared down at him confused as he lifted up my shirt. He then placed a kiss against my stomach sending shivers through my body.

“I’m your daddy baby. Hear that I’m your daddy. And mummy and I love you so much,” He whispered to my stomach. I felt the tears prick at my eyes at the sweetest moment I had seen in my life. I kept the tears in as I watched him continue to converse with our unborn child before placing another kiss on my stomach and rested his head against it.

“I love you,” he whispered against my stomach. I smiled at him and ran my fingers through his hair.

“I love you too,” he said glancing up at me. I smiled down at him.

“And I love you,” I whispered back as he stood back up and captured my lips in a sweet kiss.

“Have you booked an appointment with a doctor?” Harry asked, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me closer to him. I shook my head at him.

“We should do that now.” I giggled at him.

“Honey it’s too early in the morning. We should go to bed and we can do it when we wake up.”

“I don’t think I can fall asleep.” Harry whispered to me excitedly.

“Well I can. So you can just lay with me.” I said back grabbing his hand and leading him up the stairs to our room. I let him have a shower as I sat on the bed with both hands placed on my stomach smiling goofily at the far wall.

I was pregnant. Harry was ecstatic and so was I. I was pregnant. Harry finished in the shower quickly and climbed into bed with me wrapping his arms around me, leaving his hands resting on my stomach as he traced light patterns into my stomach. Our legs automatically entwined themselves together under the blankets.

“I am so unbelievably happy right now.” Harry whispered into my ear. “I have you and now we get a baby.”
I smiled up at him and pecked his lips softly.

“We’re going to be a family,” I smiled up at him slowly feeling my eyes droop.

“Sleep love. I’ve got you. I’ve got you both.” Harry whispered into my ear, placing a kiss on top of my head. I happily drifted off into a blissful sleep.
