Forgive Me (Color Me book 3 H.S) EDITING

CHAPTER 5

CARLI

I put on my outfit and finished with my hair, my appointment coming up. I heard Niall sing a song in the shower, his voice making me giggle.

"I don't know, it's just something about ya,

Got me feeling like I can't be without ya,

Anytime someone mention your name,

I be feeling as if I'm around ya,

Ain't no words to describe you baby,

All I know is that you take me high,

Can you tell that you drive me crazy?

Cause I can't get you out my mind."

Was he really singing a Becky G song? I giggled to myself and watched myself in the mirror. My eyes were slightly puffy from crying, my cheeks and eyes red. I was tired of crying, I was tired of being hurt. I grabbed my purse and wobbled to the living room, seeing Zayn staring at his computer screen, a grin on his face. 

"What are you smiling about?" I asked as I sat down in a chair. 

Zayn quickly shut his laptop and shrugged. "Nothing. Nothing at all. Ready to go?" Zayn said, a little fast. Too fast.

"Yeah, what were you looking at Zayn?" 

"Nothing! But I do have some news.. I can't go to the appointment today, uh.. something came up." Zayn said, scratching the back of his neck. 

I scowled. "Oh, yeah. Okay." I nodded as Niall walked into the room dressed. 

"Ready to go?" Niall asked as he grabbed his keys. I nodded and took his hand, smiling as he helped me up. 

We walked to Niall's car and got in, music blasting out the speakers as Niall started the car. "Sorry!" Niall laughed, turning down the music.

"It's okay." I replied, putting on my seat belt. Niall nodded and hummed along to the music as he drove us to the hospital, his fingers drumming against it softly. I grabbed my phone and turned it on, checking to see if I got any text.

Harry: Baby please.. I'm sorry. Please.

Harry: I was drunk and I didn't know what I was doing. I didn't mean anything I said.. Please just talk to me princess. I'm so sorry.

Harry: Goodnight baby girl, hope you and the baby sleep well. I'll be home all day if you want to come back to me. I miss you. :(

I shut off my phone and stuffed it into my purse, my gaze looking out the window as the city passed us. I let out a breath as I leaned back into the seat, my hands resting on my bump. I smiled big as I felt the baby kick, giggling as I felt him move around slightly. "Niall!! Niall pull over!!" 

Niall looked at me scared and quickly pulled over. "What?? What is it??" 

"Here." I grabbed his hands and pressed them against my bump, the baby kicking his hand softly. Niall's eyes went wide as he felt the baby, a grin plastered on his face.

"It's alive!!!" Niall screamed. I laughed and let him feel around, the baby awake and happy was a good thing. At night he always woke up and moved around, making me uncomfortable. But these times were so cute and happy. "It feels so.. Cool." Niall breathed as the baby moved around, his little hand pushing softly. 

"Isn't it amazing?" I asked, smiling. Niall nodded and drove to the hospital, parking on the right level. I got out and tugged my purse with me, shutting the door. I heard Niall suck in a breath loudly, making me scowl. "What is it?" I walked to his side and stopped dead in my tracks. 

"Who invited him!?!" I screeched, pointing to Harry. He was leaning against his car, his eyes hidden behind a pair of Ray Bans. His lips were in a tight line, his arms crossed around his chest. I was beyond mad that he was here, that I had to see him. "Did you set this up Niall?" I hissed at him. Niall's eyes went big again as he held up his hands, his head shaking fast.

"No! I had no idea about this I swear." Niall said. 

I glared at Harry as I clenched my jaw, my hands clinging my purse tightly. "Why are you here."

"I have a right to go to my son's appointment." Harry said matter-of-fact. He took off his glasses, his red puffy eyes staring at me. He's been crying. 

"You don't when you treat his mother like crap." I hissed, walking past him. Harry turned and followed me, his cologne hitting me, making me remember everything that he's done to me. I blinked back tears as Harry opened the door for me, Niall walking in beside me as I spoke nothing to Harry.

"Why did you take her?" Harry asked Niall, his tone slightly harsh.

"I wanted him to. I didn't want to be around you so I asked someone who knows how to treat me right." I said coldly, walking up to the elevator. I pressed the up button and looked up at the ceiling. "There's no reason for you to be an ass to him."

"So you're shutting me out of the baby's life?" Harry accused. 

I turned to him. "No. I'm not. I'm not like that, I just don't want to see or hear you talk right now. You hurt me so badly and you know what? You meant every word you said. You always blame it on something else."

"I know.. I've been horrible to you.. Please--"

"Just stop talking! You can go in and see the baby and then you'll need to leave. Don't talk to me, touch me or act as if everything is fine." I hissed coldly, standing next to Niall. Niall looked awkward.. Poor guy. 

I wanted everything to go back to normal, but I don't think that could happen. I brushed my tears away as I signed myself in, using my own last name instead of Harry's. 

HARRY STYLES

I wanted to win her back, and I have a plan. It won't be easy.. But Carli deserves the best.

I'm going to love her like I'm going to lose her... Like I'm doing right now.
