Leah's POV:

"Hello , Leah."
"Harry?" I whisper , but cant see his face.
"You killed me Leah."
"I - no i didnt !"
"You couldve stopped me, Leah..." He mumbles.
"Harry-"
"Tell your mum i still love her. Always have, always will." He smiles, and his face starts to appear.
"What?"
"II've loved her this whole time. Thats why I wanted your father out of the pic. I messed up and cheated, Leah. But I will always love your mother."
"You have no right..."
"But I do. Tell her Leah. Before daddy does something stupid."
He starts disappearing and I nearly cry.
"Harry!" I scream.
And hes gone.

When shit can get worse...
Its when the flashbacks hit me while I sleep.
The day Harry shot himself haunts me everyday.
I should have stopped him. Shouldve told him i wouldnt send him to jail.
But I didnt. It was too late for me to even say that...

I sat up in my bed, sweating.
"Holy shit." I whisper and breathe heavily.
I hear Greg crying and get up, yet again.
"Hi baby." I whisper and give him a pacifier.
He stops crying and accepts the offer, looking up at me with dried tears on his cheeks.
I haven't seen chad since I told him to leave.
I don't know what to feel with him.
Hate?
Love?
Disappointment?
Hurt?..

I sigh and sit on my bed, my baby in my arms.
"I love you, Greg." I smile and he closes his eyes slowly.
I think about my dad. What was Harry talking about? What stupid thing would dad do?...
I haven't seen him since before Harry died. Yeah; I know he said he was going to prison, but why didnt he say goodbye?
He just left as if it was nothing.
As if I were nothing.



Niall's POV:
"Hes gone, but what does that matter?" I ask my cell mate.
"It matters alot bro. Hes dead!" He exclaims.
Sure, I was a little sad that Harry shot himself, but he touched my little girl.
My little girl.
Who isn't little anymore.
"So why you in here ?" He asks and looks at me.
"Uh, long story." I laugh with no humor.
"I see , I see." He nods and plays with his finger nails.
"How bout you?" I ask.
"Uh.. Got caught smoking marihuana on school grounds."
"Why were you at the school?"
"Well, most cops dont check there."
I nod and sigh as I think about Maddie and the girls.
I missed them, but its best if I stayed here.
"Horan, you got a phone call." Mamick says.
"Coming." I say and stand up.
He unlocks the cell and takes me to the phone.
"Ello?"
"Dad?"
"Leah? Whats wrong hong? Why are you crying?"
"Its mum. Shes in the hospital."
"What happened?" I say, my heartbeat speeding up.
"She was cooking , and all a sudden, fell to the floor." She says and sobs.
"Honey, I need you to call Chad, tell him i said to take you and Sammy and Greg to the hospital."
"Dad, I can't..."
"Leah, its for your mother!" I snap.
"O-okay!" She says and breathes heavily.
"Calm down baby girl" .I say, my tone softening.
"Okay. I love you dad."
"I love you too, Leah. Stay strong for mum okay?"
"Okay..." She whispers.
I hang up and walk back to my cell.

That night, for the first time, I cried myself to sleep.
