*********************************************************

Something was in my eye, I blinked and opened my eyes, only to have a ray of sunshine blind me. I rolled over sleepily and looked at the clock, It was 7:31. Why  did I feel as though that should mean something? I have no Idea, I thought, and then came three quick raps on the front door. 

Oh NO!!!, The meeting with Management! Crap, crap, crap, crap. I raced around the room, the whole time muttering "Crap, crap crap," under my breath like a mad woman. I threw on the first thing I saw, which just so happened to be a pair of sweats, a grey beanie and a white floral t. I started to run out of the house but grabbed an apple from the counter first. I opened the door to see Liam's smiling face. 

"Hey" he said. "Ready?"

As I opened the door, the scent of his cologne hit me. Immediately I ran to the bathroom, and collapsed on the floor in front of the toilet. 

I heard someone walking in behind me, and assumed it was Liam. Big hands came and held my hair back, while the other rubbed by back. 

Eventually I gathered up my strength, stood up, and brushed my teeth. I turned around and looked at Liam.

"Thank you for helping me." I said gratefully. "Are we late now?"

"Yeah, Probably," He said. "But Its for a good reason. They cant get mad at you for morning sickness."

I grabbed my purse, and walked out to the black van with him. The door slid open, and all the boys were sitting inside.

"What took you so long?" Harry yelled.

"Sorry." I replied. "I got sick. Liam had to help me."

"It's alright Clara," Zayn said politely. "It's not like any of us really want to go to this meeting anyway. I see no problem with annoying management just a little bit more."

I laughed at his comment. I could see it was true. None of the boys looked at all excited, well, except for Lou, but he always looked like that. They all looked like they had rolled out of bed, just like me. Harry and I were almost wearing the same outfit, beanie and all. 

"Come and sit next to meeee!" Louis yelled. I plopped myself down, and realized with an internal groan, that I was sat between Niall, and Louis. Lou was surely going to feed of the awkwardness of the situation. I had no doubt in my mind the ride would be torturous.

Louis put his arm around me, and smirked over at Niall. "You know," he said. "Niall likes that natural look. I have no doubt in my head that he is thinking dirty things about you right at this very second." 

I glanced over at Niall, to find his perfect Ice blue eyes staring back at me. He dropped his head and his whole face turned bright red. Lou's smirk got even wider.

"So," he said. "Have you thought of any names yet?" I knew there were some names I loved, but I didn't know the gender, and wouldn't for another couple of months.

"Not really," I said. 

"Not Darcy!!!" Harry yelled. "I call it."

"Okay, Harry. I won't pick Darcy." It wasn't on my list.
