Test Subject (Harry Mpreg)

Chapter 8

"Welcome back to L.A. all of you. I haven't seen you since near the end of 2015, so we haven't caught up in a while." Ellen begins. We arrived back in L.A. a few days ago and it's already April -I can't believe how quickly time has flown by. Ev is already seven months.
"Yeah. We haven't seen each other in a while. How are you?" Liam asks.
"I'm good. How are you four? What did you get up to in your break?" She laughs.

"I just played a lot of sport, like golf and tennis." Niall shrugs.
"Payno and I were both pretty similar. Just being really lazy. It was nice to not have a schedule or have to do anything. Obviously tour is great fun but it's nice to have those times were you can just do nothing and chill out." Louis says. Now it's just me. Just me. Me.

"Harry?" Liam asks, snapping his fingers in front of my face.
"What? Oh, um. Yeah." I say, having been lost in thought.
"What did you get up to last year?" Ellen asks me. She knows about Ev, I told her and she met Ev backstage. She also knows I'm planning to tell people. I figured -first interview of tour but also a really friendly, supportive and accepting person- there's no better time.
"I, uh, I had a-" I stop to take a deep breath and Niall whispers to me,
"We've got you H."
"Daughter. I had a daughter." I finish. Ellen is beaming encouragingly, the boys look protective and the audience had an array of mixed reactions.

"She's precious. I met her backstage. How old is she?" Ellen says.
"About seven months." I reply.
"She was actually born the day after my birthday." Niall adds.
"I guess everyone wants to know this,  so I'll ask on their behalf, who's the mother?"
"It's going to sound really bad, although weird, when I say this but I don't actually know." I say, having loosened up. Everyone's looking at me as if I need more of an explanation. I explain the research aspect, the process briefly and her being born early.

"Now you're going on a tour called Aftermath this year, it starts at the Staples Centre later this week; how excited are you all for it. Have you been rehearsing?" She diverts the conversation to our careers, which I'm very glad about.
"Yeah. I think we're all really excited to get back out on the road. We've been rehearsing in England for just over a month now." Louis answers.
"Okay, now we have some fan questions. First one; what song from your last album 'Made In The A.M.' are you most looking forward to performing? We'll go through each of you." She says.
"I'm gonna have to go with A.M." I answer.
"I'm gonna go with Drag Me Down. It's a really fun and upbeat song." Niall says.
"It's gotta be What A Feeling for me." Liam says, not surprising any of us three.
"Definitely If I Could Fly." Louis adds definitely.
"What song do you think is the saddest you've ever written?" Ellen reads out.
"Love You Goodbye is really sad. Spaces, or Half A Heart?" Niall starts.
"We didn't write that though." Louis interjects.
"You didn't write it?" She asks.
"No. We didn't write Half A Heart. Fool's Gold? Night Changes? Once In A Lifetime? Although I think Spaces could be it." Louis adds.
"Maybe Summer Love?" Liam suggests.
"It's not the saddest though. Any of the songs Ed Sheeran has given to us are all sad, like Moments or 18." I put in my opinion. "I reckon for the ones we've written it's got either be Love You Goodbye or Spaces."
"I think we ruled out Night Changes. Go with those two, whatcha reckon lads?" Liam says.
"Yeah, those two." Niall agrees, and Louis and I nod.
"Love You Goodbye and Spaces then are the saddest songs you guys have ever written. Last question; which country had the worst fans?"

"Ooh!" Louis says, smirking. "Well I don't think we can say that but I also don't know what it would be."
"It depends what you mean by worst." Liam says.
"Yeah, like someone countries are more sexual and some mob more than other countries." Niall adds.
"All the fans are lovely." I smile.
"Let's go with what country has the most sexual fans." Ellen says.
"Well like, the fanfiction and the fanart can be really inappropriate but I don't think that's a specific country." Louis says.
"All the fans are pretty sexual." Niall laughs.

The interview wraps up pretty soon, then we perform Drag Me Down and then we're back in the dressing rooms and behind stage. 
"It was adorable. She was pointing and giggling at the screen when you were on it. It was so cute." Gemma is immediately on me, explaining it all. The moment I officially told my family the tour dates I would be away, Gemma instantly started bugging me to bring her. I would have just left Ev with Lottie during shows and interviews and things (Lou unfortunately can't tour with us anymore because Lux started school) but Gem insisted. I mean, firmly insisted.
"Is that so?" I coo, placing my daughter on my hip. She smiles and pokes my cheek before pointing erratically at the television and gurgling incomprehensible noises.
"She's seriously one of the cutest babies ever." Gemma declares. "It makes me want one."
"Pregnancy is awful." I chuckle, shaking my head.

A/N: Here it is! The very last chapter of the book. I also just finished the epilogue for this book and it's quite long. I'll be away Mon-Wed this week and so the epilogue will be to you on Thursday.

Judging by the reads of this book, I feel as if I'm the only one who loved it... :o Let me know pls.

P.S. if you guess what the reference 'be kind to one another' is from you'll get the epilogue dedicated to you. Hint: it's related to the chapter.
