(Leah's P.O.V.)

I let what the doctor said sink in. I was pregnant. I lost the baby.


After the shock ceases, it all rushes to me and I am overwhelmed with emotions. Sadness, Pain, Confusion, Anger. I get up and grab my bag, ignoring the doctor's calls; I rush out of the room and the building. I make it to my car and start it, driving straight home.


Once I get to the flat, I go straight to the bedroom to find it empty. I crawl onto the bed and that's when I start to cry.


When I smell Zayn's scent on the bed, I just break down. He would be an amazing father to another baby. My silent cries turn into sobs and I don't know how long I laid there crying.


I just know that the pain that I was enduring was too much to handle.

And all I could do is blame myself.

****


The sound of the flat door slamming shut wakes me and I jump up alarmed. "Leah" Zayn yells through the flat.


I don't have the strength to answer him so I lay back down, curling into fetus position.


I hear the door open to the bedroom and I feel the bed sink at the weight of another person.


My eyes are closed as I don't want to look at Zayn in the face and tell him that I lost a baby we both didn't know about.


"Hey, I know you're awake. Where's Brooklyn? Are you okay?" At Brooklyn's name, I scramble to get up. I forgot about Brooklyn.


"Whoa. Hold on" Zayn says grabbing my arm as I search for my keys. He SPINS me around, "Leah, what wrong? Have you been crying?" The look of worry on his face brings tears to my eyes.


"I - I - lost it. "Those are the only words I can say before I break down, again. My knee buckle and I can't keep myself standing, as I start to fall, Zayn catches me and picks me up; carrying me to the bed. Neither of us say anything as I sob and he hold me against his chest.


(Zayn's P.O.V.)


I don't know what is happening but I know that Leah needs me, probably more than ever right now. Her sobs quiet down; look down to see her sleeping. I slowly lay her down and get up leaving the room quietly. I run my hands through hair.


What is going?


The sound a phone ringing sounds through the whole apartment. I quickly find it, before Leah wakes up and I answer it. "Hello, Ms. Edwards" I pull away from the phone and look at it, its Leah's phone.


"Uh...Hello" I answer warily, this is weird. "It's Zayn Malik, Leah's boyfriend." I hear the person on the other side hum. "Hello, Mr. Malik. Its Leah's doctor, Lucy Daniels. I'm calling to inform Ms. Edwards that she has to make another appointment immediately."


My eyebrows furrow in confusion, "She is sleeping right now. When I came home she was a wreck, can you please tell me what happened that made her so upset." I bite my lip, waiting for a response as I sit on the edge of the couch.
