Harry's P.O.V

I couldn't help but smile to myself as I was looking at the ultrasound picture of Leah and I's baby. It was still just an egg and nobody would be able to tell that this was a baby, but just knowing that in just nine months this will be a full grown baby made me smile. 

Yesterday after finding out about Leah's pregnancy we got offered an ultrasound just so we could see our baby. Of course we accepted the offer, and me being the emotional guy I am, cried. It just got me a little emotional knowing that I'm about to be a dad. 

But of course, there are some down's about it. I wouldn't get to see the baby that often because of my career, which sucked. I also don't want the baby to be just thrown out in the spotlight if Leah isn't okay with it, but it could get hard trying to hide it. I would be the one taking her to ultrasounds and stuff, meaning there would be new pictures of us. And now that she's my girlfriend, everything could get even harder. How are we supposed to hide this? 

My thoughts were cut off by a knock on my door. Instead of walking over to it, I just yelled, "Come in!"

I heard the front door open as I quickly hid the ultrasound picture under a pillow. Only seconds later, Niall and Liam walked into the living room. They didn't even give me a chance to say 'hello' before they started asking questions.

"Mate, you have got some serious explanation to do." Liam said and sat down. "A few days ago you were seen at this italian restaurant with the brunette girl from the party with you. Then yesterday you were seen taking her to the hospital." 

"Seriously, what is going on?" Niall asked.

"Listen, I promised her I wasn't gonna say anything unless she approved." I replied. "But since you guys are my best friends I can tell you that she is in fact my girlfriend. We kind of slept together at the party, and then we started seeing each other. Yesterday I asked her to be my girlfriend and she said yes." 

"And what the heck were you doing at the hospital?" Liam asked. 

"Guys, I seriously don't know if I can tell you yet." I replied. "Nobody except me and her know, so I can't say anything yet." 

"Come on, Harry, just tell us." Niall said. 

"No, I can't. I made a promise and I'm not gonna break it, okay? She's my girlfriend and I need her to trust me." I replied. "When the time is right, we'll tell you. But right now I just can't tell you without her approval. That's just how it is, guys." 

Leah's P.O.V

Wyatt's birthday party was a success. Him and his friends had a really fun time, and my relatives and I got a great chance to catch up on things. I didn't tell them about my pregnancy though, 'cause I really didn't want them telling me how 'irresponsible' it was to get pregnant with a guy who was practically a stranger when the baby was conceived. Nor did I tell them about my relationship was Harry. I needed to know if this was a serious relationship before I started telling my family about him. 

When I got home I kicked off my shoes. I then walked into the living room to see Kylie and Chad sitting on the couch laughing at something on Chad's phone. Not even them knew about the baby. As far as I know, Harry and I are the only ones who know. 

"Hey." I said walking past them into the kitchen. 

"You're home already?" Kylie asked. 

"Yeah, in fact I am." I answered pouring myself a glass of orange juice. Then my phone went off. It was Harry. "Hey, Harry. What's up?" I asked jumping up on the kitchen counter where I sat drinking my orange juice. 

"Hey." He replied. "Listen, I really need to talk to you about something. So whenever you're back from your brother's birthday party, could you maybe come over?" 

"Sure. I came home just now so I'll probably be over in just a few." I said. "Is there anything wrong?" 

"No, I just want to ask you something." He replied. 

"Okay, I'll be there soon. Bye." I hung up on the phone and finished my glass of orange juice. I then put on my shoes and told Kylie and Chad where I was going. They knew about our relationship, but not the pregnancy. 

I collected my phone and keys in one swift move before exiting the flat. I got into my car and began driving to Harry's place. Within ten minutes I was already on my way up to the front door. I rang the doorbell and Harry opened nearly instantly. 

"Hey." He said kissing my cheek. 

"Hi." I replied and walked inside. I kicked off my shoes and followed Harry into the living room, sitting down on the couch next to him. "So what did you wanna ask me about?" 

"This." He said pulling out the ultrasound picture. I could feel my heart beating faster. He wasn't having second thoughts about the baby, was he? 

"Um, what about the baby?"

"Our baby." He corrected and I nodded awkwardly. "Listen, Niall and Liam came over earlier today. They began asking about you and why I went to the hospital with you, but I told them I couldn't say anything without your permission. Therefore, I wanted to ask you when we can start telling people. I'm urging to let the world know about you and I's beautiful baby son or daughter." 

"I.. I'm not sure I want people to know just yet." I said. "It's just, you got me pregnant when we were still like strangers, and I don't want my family to think of me as a slut. I just want to wait a while until I'm more comfortable about all of this, okay?" 

"I respect that, Leah." He said. "Just tell me when you're ready and don't feel pressured to let the fans know yet. It's all up to you."
