*Dougie's POV*

"Right, I've made up my mind."

We sat down at the table and I cleared my throat. This is it.

"Okay, like I said, I do like you, Harry and I haven't forgotten about our fling either. But if we got together, we wouldn't be able to tell anyone, maybe Tom and Danny but that's it, okay?"

"Wait, so you want to, you know...?"

"Of course I do, I love you. I just needed to get my head straight but I think I'm okay now."

"I love you so much Doug, as a friend as well. I could never lose you, so promise me even if this doesn't work, you won't stop talking to me?"

"I promise. Anyway, I best get back, Lara'll be wondering where I am."

I noticed Harry's face change. I wanted them both, but the more I thought about, the more I wanted Harry.

"Don't worry, Harry, I'll sort something out." I reassured him.

*Lara's POV*

Dougie hadn't told me where he was going and he'd been gone hours now. Had I done something wrong? He wasn't answering his texts. I was starting to really worry when I heard a key in the door and Dougie's voice calling through the house, "Hi babe, sorry I'm so late."

"Oh, you're not that late, it's okay. You been up to much?"

"Just with Tom and Harry, you want a coffee?"

"Um, yes, well as long as you're okay. Text me next time, okay?"

"Yeah, I promise, sorry."

He looked away, making me feel uncomfortable. He was hiding something, but I guess if he didn't want to tell me, that was fine. 

"There you go." he said handing me a coffee, snatching me from my thoughts. 

"Thanks" I smiled, and walked into the living room. I hoped he would follow me but when I sat down I realised he was still in the kitchen.

 "Doug, you coming in here?"

"Yeah yeah, sorry"

He came in looking worried and kind of shifty. He sat down, not looking at me once, and I started worrying again. 

"Doug, I have something to say"

"Lara, I have something to say" we both said at the same time.

Dougie froze, looking worried. "You go first, I mean, you know, ladies first." He let out a small laugh.

"Okay, well...."

*Dougie's POV*

"Okay, well..." Come on, I've got something to say too. 

"The thing is Doug, I'm pregnant." WHAT. NO PLEASE. What do I do? I can't possibly break up with her now? Wait...we haven't slept together without protection...we haven't tried for a baby.

"Wow, that's so great, I can't believe it. But how?"

"I don't know, Doug, maybe we forgot protection one night?

There was something she was hiding. I'm not the dad.

"I'm not the dad, am I?"

"I don't know, Doug."

"So even if the kid is mine, you still slept with someone else. Great, it's nice to know I can trust you."

"Look, I was drunk, it was ages ago, there's still a chance it's yours."

"I don't think you get it. YOU STILL SLEPT WITH SOMEONE ELSE."

"I GET IT, DOUG, AND I'M SORRY BUT I CAN'T CHANGE THAT NOW, CAN I? Anyway, didn't you have something you wanted to tell me?"

"Oh yeah, I'm gay, bye Lara."

I walked out, fuming, slamming the front door on the way out. 

The thing is, the situation made it easier for me to break up with her, but I was still angry. I think it was because I'd been with her for years and she broke my trust. It wasn't because it was her, it was because someone I was close to went behind my back.

I was sat in my car driving through the streets of London when I realised, I actually had to go somewhere. The first place that popped into my head was Harry's, but I knew he would be all smug and that would piss me off more, so I pulled over at a B & B and booked in for the night.
