We went into the room. Grace took her shoes off and went into the bathroom. "Grace," I said. But she closed the door behind me. The shower turned on. "Grace," I knocked on the door. "Grace, baby can we talk?" I asked. I heard sobbing. I knocked on the door again. "Grace, plead let me talk to you." I said again.

I sat on the floor of the bathroom, playing with the razor blade on my hand. Harry kept knocking at the door. But I just let him keep knocking. I was still crying. Camilla had gone too far this time. I put the blade on my wrist, but I couldn't bring myself to cut. I threw the blade across the floor and broke down in a loud sob. I hoped the sound of running water drowned it out. "Baby girl what do I do?" I asked rubbing my stomach. She kicked. I struggled to get up, I finally did and went to the door. I hugged Harry and I started crying again. Harry picked me up and laid my on the bed. I pulled my pillow closer. Harry went into the closet. And came back with a nightie for me. He under dressed me and I let him put my night gown on. He pulled the covers back and tucked me in. He took his suit off, leaving him in a undershirt and his boxers. "I saw the blade, care to explain?" He asked. "I wanted, to cut, I wanted to cut so badly. But I couldn't, I couldn't do that to Diana and my girls. What kind of social worker would I be helping girls with self harm, when my wrist have scars." I sobbed, Harry held me. He kissed my head. "Good for you not to cut." Harry said. He kissed me again. He wiped my tear, "how about something to distract you." Harry said. I kept crying even though, I felt better. Harry turned the Telly on and we watched what ever was on.

A knock came at the door, "who is it?" Harry called. "Kate, Will and George." Will said. "Do you want to talk with them?" Harry asked. "Sure," I said trying to stay awake. Will and Kate came in, Will holding a sleeping George.

They came over and sat on the bed. "Hey, you alright?" Kate asked. I shrugged. "I don't know," I said wiping away tears. Harry muted the Telly. "No one spoke after you left," Will said to Harry. "What did you do?" I asked Harry. "I may have said somethings that I regret Louise hearing. But Camilla had it coming making you run out crying." Harry kissed me. I smiled. "So you've calmed down?" Kate asked. I nodded, "My hormones are still making my cry. But I'm over it." I said. "Well, that just comes with the pregnancy." She said taking my hands. I smiled and sat up, Will laid George down. "It's weird how much you two look alike." I said to Will. "I've heard," he laughed. "Well will leave you two," Kate said getting up. Will picked George up and they left. I yawned. "Are you tired?" Harry asked. I laid back against him.
"Ya, and I have work tomorrow. The Girls are coming back to the home. Which means grocery shopping, with all twelve. Which never ends well, also were gaining another girl, since Margo has graduated and is starting University soon." I said. "So sleep it is." Harry said turning the Telly off. I snuggled up against him, I'd had a hellish day, and it went up top with the worst Christmases I've ever had. "Night Babe." Harry said kissing me. "Night Harry," I said while I yawned. I laid on his chest. He kissed my head and put his hand on my stomach. I fell asleep like that.

When I woke up, Harry wasn't in the room. I sat up, "Harry?" I called. At that moment Harry came in with a tray. "Morning, love." He said. He put the tray at the end of the bed and leaned over and Kissed me. He put pillows behind me and I leaned back against them. Harry put the tray in my lap. "What's this?" I asked. "Breakfast in bed made by yours truly." Harry said. "Really you made me breakfast?" I asked. "Yep, Agustin just told me what to do. With a few tries on the pancakes." Harry said. He poured the syrup on the stack. I started cutting the food.

After I ate, Harry begged me to stay. But I couldn't. "The girls need me, Angie need me." I said as I escaped Harry's arms.

I went to the bathroom and got ready. I walked out in Harry's robe. "I'm going to take you to work today." Harry said. "Alright," I said. I went into the closet, Harry watched me. I got dressed, in nice cloths. Problem was most barely fit. "Nothing fits," I said sitting down deflated, after the third blouse I tried. "I'll get Kate." Harry said. I looked though Harry's cloths. I took one of his casual jackets and put it on, it covered my stomach. I took one of my small backpacks off a shelf, I put the hoodie and a casual shirt of mine that did fit. Into the bag along with a pair of jeans and a pair of converses. Harry came in with Kate. She let me borrow some of her cloths and Harry said he's have someone come take measurements of me tonight. We had a brief trip to the USA to meet with the President, about Harry's wounded soldier games coming to America. The date was still undetermined. Even though I was going to be eight months pregnant, I still was going with Harry.
