**Harry's POV**

"I'm home!" I called, walking into the house a little late from work. "Sorry I'm late, I had an errand to run." I smiled at my own secrecy. "You wanna go to dinner? Somewhere special."

She hadn't responded to anything I said. I walked into the living room without removing my jacket or shoes, and saw her. Her back was to me, so I couldn't see what she was doing.

"Caroline?" I walked towards her. I heard her sniffle. I sat down in the couch next to her. On the floor there were several used tissues and her face glistened from the tears.

"Sh-she didn't make it. She tried but, she just couldn't."

My first thought was the baby, but we don't know the gender and Caroline was obviously still pregnant. And then I remembered there is only one other person she could be talking about.

Darcy. I met her once when I dropped Caroline off at the hospital. She was sweet and beautiful and didn't deserve to go through any pain.

"Caroline, I-I'm so sorry. I know you really cared for her."

She nodded. "And thanks for the offer, but I'd rather stay in night." she offered a weak smile.

"That's perfectly fine." I said, even though I felt like I got kicked in the gut. She leaned into me and I held her as she cried for another hour. The entire time I was reminded of my heartache as the small box in my jacket pocket pressed against my side.

Hey guys. Don't hate me for this chapter. I am literally crying as I write this. I really didn't want to but it was the best way to tie in everything. I hope you liked it anyway, even if it was just a tiny bit. If you didn't, please keep reading my book. I swear it'll get better.

Love you all! Please vote and comment.
