Dirty Secret

Chapter 20

"I need an abortion."

"W-what? You've got to be kidding me," Greg says with his eyes widely open and shock written all over his face. "What do you mean you need an abortion? Abortion means that you're going to end your pregnancy- you'd have to be pregnant in order to need one," he says furrowing his brows. So much for the famous doctor's intelligence

Louis rolls his eyes and huffs, "I am well aware what abortion is," he says pointedly. "And I know that I, in fact, need one."

"But how? Who's the father?" Greg asks, still as confused as a minute ago. Louis wasn't a doctor or any kind of a specialist but he'd say that the alpha was in denial. A major one by the looks of it. "I thought that you were on suppressants and that no one knew about your gender."

"I was yes, but I had to stop taking them when I was in the hospital. I didn't have them with me, so it would've been hard to do so," Louis answers calmly. "And no one knew about it the last time we spoke. Now there's few who know."

"So you got pregnant at the hospital? But that's impossible. The staff wouldn't be reckless and violate their vows and the only alphas that came to see you were Niall and Har-," Greg's eyes widen in the middle of the sentence comically. "You had sex with the captain ?" He hisses through his teeth, keeping his voice down. At least he was being sensible enough for that. "What the hell is wrong with you? Does he know?"

"Of course he knows that I had sex with him," Louis rolls his eyes. "What? Did you think that-"

"No does he know that you're pregnant ?"

"Wait, did you just ask what's wrong with me ? Excuse me ?" Louis asks perplexed. He hadn't been expecting Greg to react this way, not in a million years. "What made you think that it's Harry? I mean you just told me yourself that Niall visited me as well. Why did you automatically assume that it's our captain out of all people?" He can't help but ask. He had to make sure that they weren't being that obvious around other people.

It was now Greg's turn to roll his eyes, "Because I have seen how you act around both of them and I can assure you that there is no sexual tension between you and Niall. Between you and Harry, however... a blind man could see the tension- hell you could almost touch it." And oh shit, not the answer he was looking for.

"If it was that obvious then why did you even ask?"

"It's not I wanted it to be true," the alpha comments shaking his head. "I'm not- I don't want to talk about it any more okay? You didn't answer my question, does Harry know that you're carrying his child?"

Louis breaks the eye contact and shakes his head. It shouldn't matter if Harry knew or not, what he was going to do was his decision after all. "No, he doesn't and it doesn't matter. It's my child I'm carrying it," he says defensively. "The decision is mine to make, not his.

"But don't you think that he has the right to know?" Greg asks. "He is the father after all. I mean wouldn't you want to know if someone was carrying your child? Because I could swear that you would."

"Well that's invalid question seeing as it wouldn't happen because I'm an omega," Louis says matter-of-factly. This was taking too long, he was supposed to get in and out in less than ten minutes and it had already been longer than that. Niall would be curious to know where he had disappeared any minute now. "Are you going to do it or not? I need an answer," he sighs eventually and crosses his arms. He didn't come here to fight, he just wanted answers.

The alpha looks troubled at the direct question. "I need time to think about this, okay? Abortion is not a thing to take lightly. I'll let you know in a few days, that's the best answer I can give to you right now," he says calmly, making eye contact. He was being serious then.
