~ Juli's P.O.V. ~

I got inside and told El about everything.

"El," I said, trying to fight back the tears. "It broke my heart. You had no idea how hard it was to tell him that."

She sighed and pulled me into a side hug. "I know. But it was for all the right reasons. Maybe after you have the baby, you guys can give it a real chance."

"I think I just want to get some rest. I have the appointment tomorrow. Good night, El."

"Good night."

With that I got up and walked to my bedroom. I pulled a tank top out of my drawer and slipped it over my head. I put on an old pair of track sweatpants on, and turned sideways to look in the mirror. If I was wearing tight clothing, my baby bump was really noticeable. It went pretty far out, and if I looked at my feet I could barely see my toes.

I put my brown hair into a high messy bun on top of my head and brushed ny teeth.

As I was getting into bed, I was thinking about what I had done. Niall was trying not to seem disappointed, but I could tell there was sadness behind his eyes.

The last thing I wanted to do was tell him to give it a try with Allie. I told him that I loved him, and I threw it in his face. A stray tear dripped down my cheek. I was having a million regrets.

But in the back of my mind, I knew that I did the right thing. It was the best thing for my baby.

I was determined to stay close to Niall, until I was ready to make what we have anything more.

~ Niall P.O.V. ~

I've never been so bummed in my life. Since Louis and I have gotten back to the hotel, I haven't said a word. I just sat there, looking out the window, almost wishing I could open it and fly somewhere else.

"Niall?" I heard someone say, very faintly. "Niall!" I heard once again.

"Hmm... What?" I said, snapping out of ny trance. "Sorry, I was just thinking."

I turned my head around to see out stylist, Lou, standing beside me. "You seem different, is everything okay?" She asked.

I sighed. "Don't you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you just won't ever get it? Like you won't ever reach your goal?"

"What do you mean? You're world famous, what other goal can there be?" She said laughing a little, but wiggled her eyebrows to show she was kidding.

"I have this.... Friend." Before I could finish, Lou cut me off.

"Does this 'friend' happen to be a girl?" She asked.

"Yes, but she's kind of..." I paused, trying to find the right words. "There's really no way that I can have her. No girl has ever made me feel like this, but it's impossible for us to be together."

"Nothing is impossible, kiddo. Why can't you be with this girl?"

I decided to tell her about Juli, Carter, the baby, and everything else that happened after the concert. The entire time, she listened. She nodded her head, and never once interrupted me. I love having the lads around, but it's nice to have a female here that will actually take the time of day to listen me. When I finished my rant, she stayed quiet for a few seconds before talking again.

"I can understand where Juli is coming from. A baby is a lot to take in, and I can't imagine what she's going through right now. But when she's ready, she'll open herself up to you." I looked over at Lou and saw her sweet, caring smile.

I sighed, and then a small smirk appeared across my lips. "I hope so." Was I could manage to say. "I think I'm going to go to bed, I'm kind of tired." I said, standing up.

"Alright, good night Niall. Remember what I said." She said, leaving the room.

I walked to the bathroom and jumped in the shower. For a while, I just stood there, letting the hot water run over me. When I was done, I turned the water off, opened the curtain, and stepped out onto the bath mat.

I dried myself of throughly and put on a pair of boxers and pajama pants. I slowly walked back into my room and got into bed.

"Good Night Jules." I whispered to myself, before turning out the light. One day, I want to be able to day that to her in person, just like this.
