Never Would've Thought. (One Direction Fanfic)

Stay Strong

I made my way downstairs and followed the voices into the kitchen where I found the guys and my uncle sitting around the island. They all stopped talking and turned their faces to me. Their gazes were shifting between my face and my stomach. I looked down and shifted a bit, I was feeling very uncomfortable. "Well, aren't you going to say something, Jackie?" my uncle spoke up from the awkward silence. "Oh-uh right." I mentally face-palmed myself over how socially awkward I was being. "I'm Jackie, and I just came her from Bradford to live with my uncle." "Oh how cool! Zayn's from Bradford , aint that right Zayn?" Niall asked him. "Yeah.." he said quietly. He was staring at me, his face looked a little disgusted, his eyes wandering from my head to my feet. Sheesh, what was his problem?"Okay well I'm Har-" "I know you who you all are" I cut Harry off quickly. He smiled and I gave him a half smile back, not really knowing what else to say. "Well.. uhm I guess I'll just go unpack my things" they all nodded and I scurried back into the living room to get my luggage , which was near the front door. I grabbed my bags and realized.. I couldn't carry all of these! Theyre way too heavy to carry up all the huge flight of stairs. I groaned and let my head fall back. "Uncle Simon?" I half yelled. "Yes?" he answered back. "I can't carry these.'" I said looking towards the direction of the kitchen (hehe one direction). Instead of my uncle Louis came out of the kitchen, he smiled at me & i smiled back. "So I see you can't carry these up the stairs , ehh?". "Yepp, obviously not." He laughed at my response and took my bags. I took the smallest one which was the only one I could acually carry. "Thanks." I told him as we were going up the stairs. "Oh yeah no problem" he said with a cheeky grin. He set my bags down by my bed. I took a seat on one of the pillows on my bed and looked up at Louis. He was about to leave and close the door until he stopped.

"Can I ask you something?" he said looking at me. "Uh , yeah" I put my hands on my lap and sat criss cross. "How old are you?" he asked. Oh god, he probably thinks im some immature party brat, which I kind of was before. But I guess you learn from your mistakes , I've changed a lot & I have certainly learned from mine.

"...17" i answered afraid of how he was going to react. He squinted his eyes as if he were thinking, put his hands on his hips and started walking towards me. I looked down and felt terrible, I felt terrible pretty much every day of this pregnancy. But right now, i guess it just felt worse. I felt a tear escape from my eye and I sniffled a bit. I took the back of my hand and wiped away my tears. I felt the bed dip a little bit and looked to the side. Louis was sitting there looking sympathetic. He let out a breath from his mouth. "I don't know who the dad is.. I never knew anything about him.. I dont even know his name. I guess I was just so drunk I dont remember a thing. It sucks to know your daughter wont have a dad, and to know that youre gonna be a single mom, and I also blame myself for that for bieng so young and reckless and just not caring." I let out in a calm voice. "D-Did you ever consider getting an abortion?" I laughed a little at Louis question "How could I kill my kid, I already have this connection to her even though we havnt met." He nodded. "Why are you here with Simon?". "My parents kicked me out when they found out, they didn't like the idea of having a grandchild, I guess. So until Azalea is born and I get things settled down, I'll be staying here for a while." "You're pretty strong you know that? Putting up with all the pain, the sickness, the thoughts." he told me."Thanks." I felt his arms wraping around my waist and I wrapped mine around his. I needed this, just someone to hug me, and hold me and tell me I'm strong for doing what I do. He smelled good... really manly like. "Thanks.. for listening to me and everything." I gave him a genuine smile and he gave me a grin. Louis got up from the bed and looked down at me "Im really looking foward to spending the summer with you, and getting to know you more Jackie." he then pulled a funny face and I laughed "Yeah, that would be nice."
