Harry's P.O.V . 

I was devastated, this wasn't new news for me but this time it hurt more. I began to have those thoughts again, about leaving the band. I mean it wasn't like i was in love, i wasn't even in a relationship but Stella was different. She was the first person i had ever felt a strong connection with, i couldn't explain it, i barely knew her but i felt like i had known her for my whole life and i truly did care about her, i wanted her to have everything and i never wanted anything bad to happen to her. I never believed in love at first sight, i never thought that something like that existed. Sure you can be infatuated with someone from their looks but, that first time i saw her, how shy and insecure she was with flour on her apron and face, i knew that she was my forever, i just hoped she thought the same. 

So i continued my day, and as boring and long meetings were, i had to be there for the guys. They always supported me through everything so i needed to repay the favour. In our final meeting of what felt like 50, we all took a seat in a smallish office, where we had been told to go, well most of us, i hadn't seen Louis in about an 1 hour. Niall was busy cracking a joke when Louis finally walked in, eyes red and cheeked tear stained. We were the only ones in the room, so i was really confused and based off the looks of the other boys they were too. 

"Louis, what's going on, you alright mate, " Liam finally spoke after moments of tension, 

"I just i um," Louis continued to stutter, "I just got off the phone, i um I've got something to tell you guys" 

"Spit it out then Lou, you can tell us anything you know, " Niall chimed in,

"You guys are my best mates ever, and i know you'll support me through everything," We all nodded, realising we should now stay silent, "And you know i will support you through everything too," we nodded again, "back after me and ......Eleanor, you know ... split," His facial expressions sank, as he face the floor,"Well, look i made a huge mistake, a massive mistake," He paused for a second, 

"You all know my really good friend, Briana" 

"Yes, mate," Liam spoke, 

"Well, a couple weeks after the split i went to Briana's place, just to talk things out, coz we are so close, " He paused again , "as friends.... but we had a couple drinks and ending up kissing and then things got serious, and you all know what happened next," He stopped and tears began to slowly drip down his face. 

"Just say it, Louis," I interrupted his crying, 

"I got her pregnant," He sighed and began to weep into his hands. "I got Briana pregnant" He stood up and turned to a small window in the corner, "I'm going to be a dad" We all stood up and walked over to him and got into a group hug around him. It was silent for a good few minutes before, a member of management came in and broke the silence. We all separated and slowly wandered out of the room. It had been a tough day, for every single one of us, we were truly a family and if one person was in pain we all were, this made me realise how lucky i am  to be part of the One Direction family, why would i ever doubt how lucky i was. 

We all decided to go back to my place and have a movie night, just like we used to back in the X Factor days, to just have fun and take our minds off of the events of today. We picked 4 movies and set up some mattresses on the floor, i pulled out all the crappy food i had and chucked them into bowls, then spread them across the floor and table. I also decided to change into some tracksuit pants and a white loose shirt. We ordered in some pizza, just in case the mountains of food we had weren't enough to fill us all up. 

After one movie the pizza arrived and we spread them out on the table, where we had fortunately already eaten all the food. As we ate we talked about everything and decided to go around asking a question that everyone had to answer. Louis started with "D'you think we should keep the baby", of course we all answered with yes as we wanted to support him and i personally believed that abortion was cruel as hell. Niall asked some stupid question about his hat which we all laughed at, then Liam asked us "Should i ask Sophia to marry me" for a second we all were stunned that this was happening, it felt like yesterday that we were on the x factor as teenagers but i truly did think they would get married eventually though because they were perfect for each other. We all nodded and agreed that he needed to do it soon, we all agreed to help him plan it out and everything. He seemed so proud but i knew no matter what he would be nervous when the time came. 

It got to my turn and they all looked at me, i honestly hadn't thought of anything to say. "When d'you think we will breakup" I blurted out eventually, "Breakup?" Louis said, "What d'you mean 'when' will we break up, One direction is forever, we've been through so much and there is so much more we will go through, we will be grandparents and we will be still performing," He stated as if it was obvious. This was it, my moment where i could tell them all about my urge to leave the band, it was my chance now but instead i just nodded and said, "Yeah, that was stupid, sorry guys, i just you know didn't phrase that right," I shrugged, they all smiled, "Phewf" sighed Niall, "I thought you were going to suggest we break-up," He laughed, "No never" I replied, half-heartedly, there was a moment of awkward silence as i stared at the ground when out of no where the doorbell rang. I got up slowly, thinking maybe the pizza delivery guy had forgotten something, i mean who else could it be at this hour, it's was almost midnight. 

I reached for the handle and as soon as i opened the door i saw Stella mascara running down or delicate cheeks, eyes red and hair a mess, she seemed to be in her pajamas as well. She was clasping tightly onto a cardigan and was crying her eyes out, "Harry" she mouthed before jumping into my arms. I held her gently at first before engulfing her completely and rubbing her back, "Shhhhh" i murmured into her ears, as i had my other hand over her hair. She rubbed her head into my chest as she cried softly, "What's wrong?" I asked quietly as she slowly lifted her head to look me in the eyes, and after a few moments of staring into her eyes she replied with, 

"I can't do this anymore,"
