We got back and there was a big group of people who were waiting for us. The lads were there along with their girlfriends; I noticed that Louis had his arm around Miriam. I smirked at her and she blushed. I ran into my mother's arms and she pulled me close to her. After we released from our hug, I hugged my father, and then Anne, Robin, and Gemma. We all went back to our house and I started telling my friends and family about our honeymoon, while Harry, the lads, my dad, and Robin all turned on the football game.

That night, Harry wrapped me into his arms as we laid in bed. He pressed his lips to the top of my head and whispered, "I love you Evelyn."

"I love you too Harry."

I woke up the next morning and I walked into the kitchen to make breakfast. I looked around and I glanced at the calendar. I stopped in my tracks and walked back to the calendar. I looked at what day it was. My eyes widened and I ran to the bathroom. I sat on the toilet and found nothing unusual, which was a bad thing.

I took some shaky breaths and dressed in yoga pants and a t-shirt. I scribbled a note for Harry, in case he woke up to find me gone. I took the car keys to one of the cars and drove to the closest convenience store. I walked into the family planning aisle and found what I was looking for. I went to the self check-out and bought my items and drove home. I finished my bottle of water and went straight into the bathroom. I did my business and waited the specified amount of time. My timer went off on my phone and I looked at what the test said.

I covered my mouth with my free hand as tears filled my eyes. Harry knocked on the door and asked, "Evelyn? Are you in there?"

I said with a shaky breath, "Yeah, Haz. I'll be out in a minute."

I took a deep breath and left the test on the counter, so Harry would see it, that way I wouldn't have to say it out loud. I walked out and pressed my lips to Harry's as I told him, "Good morning."

I ran to the kitchen as I continued where I left off making breakfast. I was just about to pour the pancake batter onto the skillet, when Harry called out, "Evelyn!"

I put the batter bowl down and turned to face Harry, who was holding the test in his hand. His emerald eyes met mine and he asked, "Are you really...?"

I slowly nodded my head, more tears filling my eyes. Harry threw the test to the ground and ran to me when he noticed my tears. He picked me up bridal style and sat down on the couch with me in his lap. He rubbed my back slowly and pressed his lips to my head. I cried, "Why me?"

"What do you mean, 'why you'?" Harry asked.

I sniffled and looked into his eyes, "There's no possible way to know if this baby is even going to survive. Harry, I could die before I give birth. If I don't die before I give birth, I could die during childbirth. If I don't die in either of those situations, I won't have much time with our baby. This baby could be born with cancer, Harry."

I broke down sobbing again and Harry just held me tighter. He whispered, "Well maybe it was a false alarm."

I shook my head and told him, "I was supposed to get my period during our honeymoon. It's normally okay if it shows up a couple of days late, but it's almost a week late."

Harry held me as tight as he could and rubbed my back. My tears stopped flowing and I just sat in Harry's lap hugging him. He asked, "What are we going to do?"

"I'm going to set up an appointment with my doctor and go from there," I sighed and got up to finish making breakfast.

A couple of days later, I got in to see my doctor. She confirmed my pregnancy and told me what I already knew. I got home and found Harry in the entertainment room. I sat next to him on the couch and he asked, "What happened?"
