Niall's POV
Yay.... meeting with my mum.... ughhh i did NOT want to do this.. not even a little.... but here i was sitting in the visiting room waiting for her.
"NI NI!!! oh my baby!!!" she cooed, running in and latching herself around me
"Hey Ma." I responded. I just wanted this to be over already so I could go back to my room and sulk.
"Oh my darling boy.. I’ve brought you something...." she said, softly.
"If it's not my wife then I don't want it."
"it's a note from her and a picture of your babies....." she said, softly. That got my attention.
"Gimme!" I said, excitedly.She smiled and handed me an ultrasound photo first. the picture took my breath away. Baby A and Baby B it said.
"Oh my God." I gasped, chewing on my thumbnail. "Ma...there's two of em'."
"Yeah there is baby boy.. twins...." she smiled, and handed me the note. I opened it and began to read.
Niall,
Hello my darling... im so sorry you're doing this alone.... but your therapist Mrs. K called said a tiny note may help your progress.. I love you... and I hope the news of our twins will cheer you up.. get better soon.. so we can have our family back.....
xoxo Nessie
I re-read that note over and over and over again. Taking in every word, every punctuation mark...just...everything. A single tear dripped down my face and onto the paper.
"You see baby boy.. she loves you... so much.. she needs you to get better... she said if the therapist recommends it.. she may come see you in a couple weeks...." Mum said softly.
"I wanna go home Mummy." I choked out.
"I know you do baby.. but you have to finish your time... you know if you do that you'll just have to deal with probation... no jail time...... and she'll continue to send photos...." she smiled, handing me another of Nessie's belly. I traced the outline of her bump with my finger.
"Only Nessie can make a pregnant belly look adorable." I cooed. "Gosh I can't believe my babies are in there...cooking away....mmmm cooking, great now I'm hungry."
"I love you my sweet boy..." she smiled, reaching into the bag to hand me a bag.. and all i read was Nando's....
"Mama the rebel." I smirked, taking the bag from her. "Sneaking in the banned stuff."
"Anything for my darling boy...." she smiled, 'Now eat..." I started wolfing down that food like no tomorrow. You'd think I hadn't eaten in a year.
"I love you darling... I’ll be back next week," she smiled and kissed my temple. She helped me clean up then headed out. Thank god for today i was buckling down and I was gonna get my visit with Vanessa if it killed me.
Jennifer's POV
Niall had been in rehab almost 6 weeks... his therapist still not seeing enough progress from him to let Nessie go see him and she was already growing so big... but sending photos and letters with Maura every week..... She had said she was staying away... but she was so proud of his progress thus far and him being rehab she just couldn't avoid him... As for me.... well... i was going to see my doctor...... i wasn't feeling well....
"Jennifer come on through." Dr. Shepherd said. I followed him in thru the room and he got me all set up, before getting out an ultrasound machine to check me over. he looked at it for a moment, before his face went meek.. almost sad...
"Dr. Shepherd?" I asked, his face was freaking me out.
"Jennifer... you ummm.... oh my gosh, im so sorry.... i thought i saw a baby... and i got all excited, but then i checked again... it's there.... but no heartbeat darling im sorry...." he said, softly. Have you ever had one of those moments when you swear you can actually feel your heart breaking in two? Well...this was one of those moments.
"What? Are you sure?" I cried softly.
“Yes 8 week old fetus... here...." he said, showing me. I covered my mouth and i felt the tears well up.
"okay.... so... now what do we do?" I asked.
"D & C," he said, sadly, "Right away...." I nodded and he went to set it up and I pulled out my phone and texted the entire gang....
Jeny: going in for surgery... everyone come to hospital ASAP
A flood of panicked texts came though as I was getting prepped for the operation. Guess which two people were freaking out the most? Vanessa and Harry you guessed it... They had me rushed in before anyone arrived... and I just hoped my darling husband would be alright...
Harry's POV
When i arrived at the hospital i was in full on panic mode, the entire gang flooding in behind me.
"Jennifer Styles.. she's my wife..... where is she?!" I begged.
'Sir.. she's still in surgery... but i promise it's a very basic procedure...." the nurse said, calmly.
"What's a very basic procedure? What am I not being told?!" I cried out.
"Mr Styles... over here please....." Dr Shepard said, coming out of the back.
"We'll be here if you need us Haz." Liam said. I nodded and fast-walked over to the other side of the room.
"Harry... you.. know I delivered miss Arianna.. and cared for her thru the entire pregnancy... so it pains me to tell you.. but Jennifer has just under gone a D & C......" he said, softly. A D&C? But that means....oh please no. She couldn't have....we lost our baby?
"I'm sorry... she was only 8 weeks... barely noticeable.. im so sorry..." he said, patted my back gently, and left me with my friends. I just couldn't speak..... and I collapsed into the nearest pair of arms I could reach......
"Shhh, it's alright mate...' Louis whispered softly, hugging me and rubbing my back.
"No Louis, it's not alright." I sobbed. "How can losing a child be alright?"
"It's not... but right now we have to all be strong for Jeny....." he said, rocking me gently
"I don't know if I can Louis."
"Harry.. Jeny is asking for you," Dr. Shepard said, coming back out. I gulped and took one last look at my friends, then followed him through the double doors into the main area of the hospital. When we entered into my wife's room she was curled up in the fetal position and sobbing into her pillow.
"Come and get me if you need anything." Dr Shepherd said gently. I just nodded and went over to lay behind my wife and pull her into my arms.
'Im sorry... im sorry.... im so sorry..." she sobbed.
"Shhhhhhh." I soothed, stroking her hair. "It's not your fault.....it's not your fault."
"It is... it is.. how can i not know... and not protect our baby..... what kind of mother am i?" she cried.
"You are the best Mother in the world." I whispered. "I've seen you with Arianna, I couldn't have asked for a better woman to be the Mother of my child."
"I just.... i can't.. it hurts," she said, soaking my shirt with her tears, 'it hurts so much..."
"I know baby." I blinked back my own tears and held my wife tighter. "I wish I could make it not hurt.
"I know..." she whispered. My wife was by far the strongest person I've ever know.. and to see her so destroyed... it broke my heart and I wanted nothing more than to be able to put her back together.
