Everything Has Changed

Old Scarf

... But she couldn't smile. She didn't even know if she had to smile.
In her whole life, she wanted to have kids one day with the person that would treat her right and truly love her. Now that it was happening, she didn't want it. Was she greedy? No. It's the worst period of their lives for a baby. She can hardly control her stress, and now...a baby? Why right now?

"Harry I'm scared" she cried on his shirt

"Why Taylor? Why are you scared? You always wanted kids and now it's happening" he smiled rubbed her back

"Because it's not a good period for kids!" she said

"I get it that you're stressed...you decide if you wanna keep that baby or not. I'll support you in whatever you choose" he told her

"I-... I don't know... I don't even know if Joe wants a kid right now!"

"Hey, hey, hey! Look at me!" he said and she looked up right into his green eyes "Listen...at this point it's not what HE wants, but what YOU want! It's your body and so your choice Taylor!"

She sighed and wiped her tears on her sleeve "I want this kid" she whispered

"Taylor... Are you sure?" he asks

"I am... I've lost the previous one but I wanna keep this" she looked down at her tummy "But... I also have a tour in a few months. I can't let down my fans. They've been waiting for it for so long!"

"That's fine... You can change the dates" he said "It's not like you've announced anything yet"

"I was about to announce it in 2 weeks"

"See? At least you have enough time to reschedule" he says

"You're right about it" she speaks so low that she can hardly hear her own voice "But what about the court thing?"

"You can continue going normally without having anyone to know about it. You don't even show yet. You're as flat as my phone right now" he giggles

"And the fans? And the whole world? What should I tell them?! Most of them already hate me! Especially after my break up with Tom and marriage with Joe... Jesus... They hate me even more!" she covered her face with her hands

"Darling... They don't know you the way Joe, Selena and I know you! They have no right to judge you! Don't listen to their words! They are stupid! And I'm pretty sure that your fans love you so much that will understand the situation you are in!"

"You think so?" she asked

"I'm sure!" he nodded

"Alright..." she took a deep breath

"Should we head downstairs? We don't want him to suspect anything" he says

"Shit I forgot about it" she quickly wiped all of her tears away "Can I hug you one last time?" she asks

"Of course" he grinned at her with his fascinated smile and soon her hands were wrapped around him once again.

"Thank you" she mumbled, having her eyes closed as her head was lying on his shoulder

"I'm always here for my friends" he says "No come on! Let's go!" he pats her back

Then, when she finally pulled back and Harry opened the door so that both of them could get out of the room. But before it, Taylor grabbed a random notebook and handed it to Harry.

Walking down the stairs, Harry rubbed circles on Taylor's lower back to calm her down. When he made sure she was okay once, he pulled his hand back and put it in his left pocket.
