I walked into my apartment and see that Ellie was in the bathroom. I go set down the food and knock on the door to the bathroom.

"Hey. You ok? Thought you were sleeping." I said.

"I'm fine." She says and then I heard her throw up.

"Morning sickness?" I asked.

"Yeah."

I walked over to the kitchen and sat down to start eating my scone and drink my coffee. She walks out and see's me sitting down at the table so she joins.

"What's this?" She asked.

"Scone and tea."

"But I want coffee."

"Can't have coffee. It's not good for the baby."

She nods her head and begins eating.

"I ran into Niall." I said.

She stops eating and looks at me.

"Did you say anything to him?!" She asked worried.

"Of course not!"

"Oh few."

"When are you going to tell him?" I asked.

"I don't know." She said while looking down at her scone and playing with it.

I was thinking of how he would react. I wanted to vent it out to someone. Someone who isn't my friend. Because as much as I was going to be there for her I knew that it was going to be hard and stressful. The only person I could think of was Harry.

"Am I allowed to talk to Harry about this?" I ask cautiously. I knew she would probably say no.

"He might tell Niall."

"Ok but love. You should tell Niall soon." I said and got up to go get ready for class.

I change into a pair of skinny jeans and then keep the sweatshirt on. I grabbed my uggs and let my hair down naturally and put the beanie on. I walked out and see that Ellie was throwing up again in the bathroom.

"You ok?" I asked.

"Yeah. I think I will skip classes today though."

"Call me if you need me." I said and then walked out.

I walked down the beautiful streets of London. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket so I go answer it.

"Hey love." I said when you realized it was Harry.

"Hey I have a question." He said.

"Ok, what is it?"

"Why were you so rude to Niall this morning?"

"You heard about that?"

"Yeah. He came to me and told me. He thought you liked him but he was surprised what you called him." He said.

I groaned a little and think how I shouldn't have snapped at Niall like that.

"I'm sorry. I didn't sleep and I was just angry. I don't like when guys use girls and I don't know he just seems like he is using Ellie. I shouldn't have called him a dick. I'll apologize to him." I said.

"Ahh. Makes sense now."

"Does he hate me?"

"No I think he is just a little hurt." He said.

"I'm sorry Harry."

"Don't worry about it. Get to class." He said with a smile.

I laughed a little and then hung up. I got to class a little early for once. I had three classes today but luckily they all went by fast. I had a math class, a history class, and a foreign language class. It was around seven at night when I was finally done with classes for the day. I got to my apartment and walked in to see a surprise.

"Niall." I say when you see him sitting at the table.

"Hi." He said without a smile.

"Brooke!" Ellie says from the kitchen.

I walk in and see that she is shaking from the nerves.

"Did you call him?" I asked.

"No he just showed up." She said.

"Are you going to tell him?"

"I think I have to. He has a right to know. He is the father."

"True." I say while nodding my head.

"Let me just talk to him first. I owe him an apology." I said.

"What for?" She asked confused.

"I'll explain later."

I walk out and sat down next to Niall.

"Niall I just wanted to say I am sorry for what I called you earlier today. You didn't deserve that." I said.

He looks at me for a few moments and then smiles a little.

"It's ok. You made me realize that I was sort of not being good to her. She deserves the best." He said with a smile.

I smiled a little, knowing that the next few moment were going to change his life and was so nervous on how he would take it. I gave him a hug and then walk out into my room.

I wanted to give them privacy to talk. I was flipping out in my head. What was he going to think? Could I tell Harry now? I needed to vent out my thoughts.

"YOU'RE WHAT?!" I heard a shout from the table.

I stop pacing and go to the door to listen.

"Pregnant." I hear Ellie say.

I hear someone knock on the door and I remembered I had invited Harry over. I go out and see Niall standing with a shocked face and Ellie looking confused and hurt.

"I'll get it." I say.

I open the door and see Harry smiling at me. He gave me a kiss but could tell something was wrong. He looked up and saw Niall standing there while running his hands through his hair.

"Niall what are you doing here?" He asked.

"Uh. Um. Uh." He tried to speak but couldn't.

"Let's go to my room." I said.

We headed into my room and Harry looks worried.

"What is going on?" He asked.

"You see, E-E-Ellie is pregnant." I said.

"What?!" He asked.

"It gets worse. It's Niall's baby."

Harry's eyes grow wide and he looks at me with a shocked expression. I didn't know what to say. It was silent and all I could hear was a door slamming and my best friend screaming "I CAN DO IT WITHOUT YOU ANYWAY!".
