Lexi's POV:

"Babe! Come on, we're going to be late!" Zayn shouted from the living room. 

"I'm coming , I'm coming! Don't get your knickers in a twist!" I shouted back as I slipped on my high tops and grabbed my leather jacket. I quickly pulled my phone from its charging dock and scurried down the stairs where Zayn was waiting.

"Well, finally. Sometimes you take longer to get ready than I do." He said openeing the front door and grabbing the car keys from the bowl. 

"Geez, calm down. I needed to shower and then cover up these fucking bruises." I grumbled eyeing my legs to see if the bruises were visible. 

"I'm sorry babe, I just forget sometimes." He said talking about the cancer. We exited the flat and walked hand in hand to the SUV.

"It's okay, i'm really grumpy this morning. I threw up again after the smoothie you made me meaning that these chemo pills aren't working." I said as Zayn walked into the driver's seat and I in the passenger seat. 

"I know it's hard Lex, but we'll get threw this. We're on our way to your MRI and we'll get answers okay?" He said in a comforting tone. I nodded before he placed a sweet kiss on my lips. 

He turned the key to ignite the car and we started to drive. I started to tap my foot nervously so Zayn placed his hand on my thigh. 

"It's going to be okay, don't be nervous." 

"I know it's just with everything thats happening and what happened at the Gala..." I said trailing off as I remebered puking up all the contents of my stomach at the Gala. 

"Babe, I know it's hard for you, it's hard for me to see you like this. But once we see the exact problem the doctor will tell us what our options are. Don't be nervous." He said. 

I smiled weakly at him and looked straight ahead. 

If only that was the only thing freaking me out...

Zayn pulled up to St. Mary's hospital and parked by the Radiology. I exited the car and Zayn took my hand in comfort then kissed my temple. 

We walked in to the waiting room area where there was a couple nurses waiting at the front desk. 

"Hello, How can I help you?" She said looking up from her computer. 

"Hi, my name is Lexi Campbell and I have an appointment for an MRI." I said. 

She nodded and then typed away on her computer for a bit then looked back at us. 

"Yes, I see. You can sit here and then a nurse will call you shortly." She said. 

I nodded and thanked her before walking towards two chairs. I sat down beside Zayn and cuddled up into his chest. 

He started to play with my hair that only made me cuddle closer to him. I coupldn't help but giggle a bit at an old memory. 

"What are you giggling at?" He asked. I looked up at him with a smile and he just smiled because I looked crazy. 

"I was just remembrng how we met."

He smiled and shook his head. "Yeah, that's quite the memory. I called you a hooker and you slapped me."

"Yup and then we met again and I stole your phone, prank called Ed Sheeran, who by the way hates me, and I toured with you guys."

"He doesn't hate you, he actually thought the whole thing was hilarious. We had quite the experience." He smiled. 

I smiled back then looked at my fingers. "You know if I don't make it through t-"

"Don't talk like that. You will make it through."

"I know but Zayn-"

"No, you will make it through okay. You will." He said with almost pleading eyes. It was as if he was trying to make himself believe it more than me. 

"Lexi Campbell?' I looked up and saw a nurse in dark blue scrubs with a file in hand. 

"Yes" I said dtanding up. "I'll be done before you know it." I said to Zayn before pecking his lips and he nodded. 

I followed the nurse through a hall with many door until she opened the last one on the right. Inside was a giant MRI machine. It was very intimidating to look at. A giant machine that looks like a donut then a table coming out of the hole. 

"Okay sweetheart, just remove your jacket and shoes. Take off our ring and your earrings please because the magnet on the MRI is strong." She said sweetly. 

"Of course."  I did as told and placed my things in a corner neatly. 

"Come around here." The nurse said motioning to the MRI. "Lie down on the table and rest your head on the pillow please."

I did as told and winced a bit when the cool sensation of the metal table hit my skin. 

"Okay so the table is gonna move in and out of the machine and it's gonna make quite a bit of noise so don't worry. It's going to  over before you know it." She smiled and I nodded. "Now don't move." 

As the machine started up I could feel my heartbeat rising and pumping against my rib cage. I was really nervous. I closed my eyes rightly and thought about Zayn and how amazing our time together was and that calmed me down. I didn't even realize the nurse was talking to me. 

"So you're done sweety." She said heling me off the table. 

"Great, can I leave?" I asked probably a bit to hastily. 

"Not yet, we might need to do more tests okay? I'll call you back if we need you okay, just saty in the waiting room. It won't be to long."

I nodded and grabbed my thing then pulled my shoes back on my feet and walked back to the waiting room. Zayn look up from his iPhone worrily. 

'Everything okay?" He asked me as I sat down beside him and he wraped his arm around my shoulder. 

"Yeah, I just need to sit around incase they need to do more tests. Work calling you?" I wondered and he shook his head. 

"No, I told them I was going to be busy all day.'

"Zayn, If you have work, you should go, i'll be fine." 

"I'm staying Lexi." He said making me smile and I kissed him again. God, I love this boy.

"Thank you." I said. 

"It's not a problem babe." He said then kissed the top of my head. 

We sat there for a bit quietly until I saw the nurse come into the waiting room. The same one from the MRI. 

"Lexi?" She asked looking at me. 

"Yes, is everything okay?" I asked her standing up from my seat. Zayn was listening intently to the both of us.

"Yes, everything's fine I just need you to come with my to do a CT scan. We need to check your bones.'

Shit. Not a CT scan. 

"Uh, yeah sure."

I handed my coat to Zayn and he nodded reassuring me that everything is okay. I followed the nurse to another hall where she turned into a door with the sign "Radiology" was across of it. 

Oh no. 

There was a giant machine in the middle of the room and a little separator room where the nurse would be. 

"Okay so just take off your shoes since you don't have you jacket and your ring too." She instructed. 

Reluctantly I did as she said and sat down on the machine. 

"Okay so i'm just going to ask your question since it's the policy." 

I nodded and she continued. 

"Is there a chance that you might be pregnant right now?" 

I gulped. "Yes, there is a chance."
