"What do you mean?" I asked, wiping my tears away, only for them to be replaced with fresh ones. Liam sat me down on the side of the bath tub and stroked my cheek gently, "bleeding in a pregnancy isn't good news Melanie..." He said quietly.

My heart ached at his words but I shook my head vigorously, "no" I muttered. I tried to fight the dry that was dying to escape but I couldn't. I cried harder as the pain got worse.

"What do I do?" I begged, forcing myself standing to my feet, "I heard that if you keep the baby active then there's no problem." I added desperately. I gently bounced between each foot, gently rubbing my small bump.

Minutes passed of my doing the same thing but by the look on Liam's face, he didn't have any hope. I ran my fingers through my hair and bounced slightly harder between each foot, "come on baby." I whispered, tears threatening to fall.

I rubbed my stomach more tensely and prayed to God that everything would be okay, "please." I whispered. Pain shot through my whole abdomen area causing my knees to buckle beneath me.

Liam quickly held my body up but I fell limp in his arms, crying hysterically. "Please help me." I begged desperately into his chest, I felt the same warm liquid running down my leg again. I didn't have to look to know what it was.

"I'll be right back, just gonna try and sober him up." Liam said, gently sitting me in the edge of the bath tub again. I ignored him and only focuses on my small bump that had been growing for months now.

He wiped away my tears with his thumbs and left the bathroom to fix Harry, I immediately burst into tears. "Please, please." I said through gritted teeth.

I gripped on to the shower curtain for support as I breathed deeply, I looked down to the floor only to see puddles of blood beneath me. I covered my mouth and shook my head in disbelief.

This is all my fault, my baby is gone because of me. Is this my punishment for what I have done with Liam? Losing my child?

"I'm so sorry." I whispered between cries, this can't be happening right now. I crouched over in pain as it felt like someone was repeatedly punching my stomach as hard as they possibly could.

My eyes began to drop slowly but I immediately opened them wide, nausea overtook my body immediately and I clutched onto the shower curtain harder. "Harry..." I whispered desperately, hoping my voice would come out louder.

Approximately five minutes passed of me constantly feeling drowsy, "Harry." I quietly cried for the second time. For some reason, I only wanted Harry to be here.

"I'm here, princess." I heard the familiar voice, however it was weak and quiet. I used all of my energy to hold my head up to look at him, he had a glass of water in his hands which he tapped rapidly.

Tears rolled down my face and I coughed out a cry, Harry's face soon turned wet and he put the glass down as he slowly walked over to me. He crouched down and cupped my cheek with his hand, "I'm sorry." He cried, tears escaping his tightly shut eyes. "I'm so sorry." He said loudly.

He gently wrapped his arm around my body and held me close to him, I sniffled into the crook of his neck and squeezed my eye shut. "That wasn't me, it was the alcohol." He tried to explain desperately through his cries.

I nodded and held him closely, "I know." I whispered. My eyes were becoming heavy but again I forced them open, he rubbed circles in my back and tried to stop his cries but he couldn't, likewise with me.

My stomach has soon turned numb from the pain that was caused, it was as if my whole body was weak. Harry was whispered his apologies in my ear but they soon became inaudible, "Mel?" His voice blurred.

My vision became faded and I noticed Harry pulling my body up from me falling, "Melanie." I saw him mouth as he cupped my face in his hands. Why wasn't he speaking?

He turned away and opened his mouth loudly as if he was shouting, but no noise came out. "Harry, I know I don't say it much, but I love you..." I slurred, my eyes began to shut but he shook my head slightly causing me to open them slightly.

Tears were pouring out of his eyes as his mouth opened again, looking like he was screaming but no noise. I felt my body falling down but Harry stood up from his crouched position and held me up securely. "Stay awake.." His voice quietly echoed.

My head bowed down and all I could see was the floor, the small puddle of blood that was there before was covering the entire bathroom floor. "Harry, I'm sorry.." I mumbled.

Again, he cupped my face and made me look at him as he said words that I couldn't hear, his eyes resembling a waterfall. Liam ran into the bathroom but for some reason he was running in slow motion, what an idiot.

He crouched down by Harry and started talking to me, I just stared blankly not being able to hear. My eyes soon closed against my will and I fell limp again, I felt my body getting jolted about.

My head was focused on one person, and one person only, Harry Styles. As my mind was drowned with him I heard him scream louder than I've ever heard him, before my world turned dark.

"She's dying... Melanie."
