Harry's P.O.V.

The commercials had barely even started when my phone rang loudly. Not moving anything but my arm, I got the phone out of my pocket and blindly answered it, holding it close to my ear

"Hello?" I huskily spoke

"Are you watching what I am watching?" Melina asked worriedly

"I'm afraid so" I mumbled, uncomfortably shifting positions "How can they know? Did anyone see you buying a pregnancy test?"

"Put her on speaker" Liam suggested, although it sounded more like a command. I took the phone of my ear and tapped on speaker phone, leaving it on the couch

"Impossible. I drove to some freaking hellhole where I couldn't imagine anyone knowing me and bought the pregnancy tests along with tampons so it looked like I bought them for someone else. And besides that, the guy behind the counter didn't even look up at me; he was too busy discussing the newspaper articles with his mate on the phone!" Melina exclaimed frustratedly "I'm coming over to your place right now"

"You are absolutely positive no-one followed you?" Liam pressed the matter

"Bloody hell, yes, Liam! I was paranoid enough to drive 2 hours to get to another village to even buy a pregnancy test, you think I didn't watch out for paps?!" Melina spat into the phone, her frantic footsteps being heard in the background, followed by her front door being closed

"I'm sorry, I'm just stressed out" she apologised almost immediately after

"Babe, it's okay. Just take a deep breath" I tried to reassure her, although I was panicking myself

"Harry" Melina warningly spoke, closing the door to what I imagined to be her car "Rumour might be going round about me carrying your baby. I'm not going to take breath"

"Well, it's not a lie" Niall carefully said

"That's not making it any better!" she exclaimed, starting the engine of her car

"You can just deny the rumours" Zayn suggested

"Right, and when my belly starts growing bigger people will just think I'm gaining weight. And they will totally not follow me everywhere to make sure whether I'm not lying! What a great idea!" sarcasm was dripping off her voice as she exasperatedly talked

"Have you put your phone on speaker?" I checked, before anyone could react to her

"Yes, it's on speaker" Melina answered

"Look, maybe you just missed a pap. It happens to all of us" Louis reassured Melina, making her laugh "What?"

"Nothing, just- since when are you nice to me, Louis?" she giggled

"Hey, my sass is a privilege!" Louis protested "You know I like you"

"I know, I just wanted to hear you say it" Melina replied, the smirk evident in her voice

"Dammit"

"Hang on, I'm almost there"

"How many laws did you break?" I wondered aloud

"Only 3. Relax" she answered coolly

"That's 3 too many" I panicked "You're pregnant for god's sake"

"Sweetie, I've broken more than 3 laws before" Melina giggled softly, my heart fluttering slightly at the sound before the bell rang. I jumped up and ran to the door, opening it to see a smiling Melina with her phone pressed to her ear

"I missed you" she said, a joking tone in her voice

"Not half as much as I missed you" I replied cheekily, although I was probably more serious than her
