*Harry's P.O.V*

"I can't believe this..." Aeron whispers to herself, still pacing the entire perimeter of the living room.

She's been doing this for the last ten minutes. Whispering to herself about what Niall told us. Its not really whispering because we both can hear her. I understand how she feels. When your bestfriend comes to your house and says he wants to divorce your other bestfriend. If I weren't as calm as I am, I just might be pacing along with her.

I looked at Niall.

"W- what do you mean you want a divorce?" I ask, barely able to get the question out.

I was still shocked. He can't just up and decide to get a divorce. I mean he can, but not when the girl he's wanting a divorce with just got out of surgery from an accident. She's going to need him and his help when she gets out of there. Instead she's coming home to a household built on hell and rage.

"Exactally what it sounds like." He replied.

There was an innocent and easy going tone to his voice that made me want to throw up. You can't just tell two people you want a divorce and be calm about it.

"B- but Niall. She's in the hospital. You can't just up and leave her like this." I continue.

Niall closed his eyes and took a breath as if trying to keep himself from hurting someone.

"Harry, please? Don-"

"How in the hell could you just leave her? She's in the bloody hospital for christ's sake! She doesn't even know what's happening right now! Have you even thought this completely through?! How do you know its not just what you want that's influencing this decision!" I holler.

I noticed how loud I was and tried to lower the volume behind my voice.

"I mean. You haven't even heard her side of the story. What if she's telling the truth? Then you just threw away eight years for nothing?" I ask, calmer than before.

Niall shook his head and put his hands together. The atmosphere was changed when I raised my voice. After I calmed down it was still awkward.

"I don't need to hear it. I know what I want to do. If she wanted to try and work out the problems we already had, she wouldn't have cheated in the first place." He respondes.

"I think we should get a divorce he says.."

We both looked at Aeron. She's uselessly babbling about the situation again. She needs help with that.

"Niall she would never do that to hurt you. She was just in a rough spot." I state.

He held his hand up.

"Please, can you explain to me what rough spot she was in?" He asked.

I stopped and thought about it. Well, one you didn't get out of the limo to talk to her. Two, she already thought you hated her and didn't want her. Three, you were actually dumb enough to think Zayn could comfort her without his penis.

So, how do I sum that all up into one?

"You didn't help her when she needed you most. You should have seen her when she was waiting for you," I say, running a hand through my hair.

"Her face lit up when Zayn got out of the limo."

Niall scoffed.

"Well, yeah. It was Zayn." He says.

"No, because she thought it was you. Her mood completely changed when she didn't see you. She looked broken and like she would just break down on the porch and cry for hours, knowing or thinking you didn't care about her."
