harry
"the doctor's not gonna care, erin. just hurry up!" harry groaned in annoyance. erin was taking forever to pick an outfit to wear to go to the doctor and frankly, harry was starting to get pissed.

"well i care, bunny boo! you must always present yourself well," erin recited, picking up a light yellow sundress. she then disappeared into the bathroom to get dressed.

harry sighed and threw himself on the bed, extremely exhausted from the meetings he had all morning.

erin finally came out of the bathroom fully dressed. her blonde shoulder-length hair was down and curled at the bottom. she gave him a dazzling smile, "how do i look?".

harry gave her tight smile, "you look great, erin. you always do," he sighed and checked his watch for the fifth time. they were definitely going to be late now.

elanora
"then...he kissed me," elanora announced, taking a sip of her iced coffee. she and joey were in the break room eating and discussing her and niall's date last night.

"no! how was it?!" joey exclaimed. he put his sandwich down, eyes wide with excitement.

"none of your business!" elanora hissed at him. joey could be so darn nosey sometimes. he pouted at her and crossed his arms, "fine! be that way!".

elanora would be lying if she said she didn't think of harry half of the time on the date. the voicemail he left her came as a shock. she really wanted to call him, but she was still trying to process everything. plus she thought he already had his hands full moving out.

she was conflicted with the decision of a future with niall and one with harry. both seemed really appealing to her. niall made her feel happy and wanted, while harry made her feel so many emotions at once. when she's with harry, she feels like the world stops and it's only them.

she really didn't want to lead niall on when she wasn't sure of a romantic relationship with him. then again, she wasn't so sure about one with harry either.

she was still mad and hurt that harry didn't try to find a loophole in his and erin's marriage contract in the years that they were together. she felt that he wasn't serious about them, about their relationship.

but, he was divorcing his wife for her. that was pretty serious. but was it enough? elanora really didn't know anymore.

harry
dr. archibald was the best and youngest pediatrician in the city. at only twenty three years old, he's the head of the pediatric wing at royal london hospital.

"i am going to take some of your blood now," the doctor reported. he took an antibacterial wipe and rubbed the spot he was about to stick the needle in. erin bit her lip nervously, she really hated needles.

harry seemed to take notice of this and put a comforting arm around her, kissing her forehead in the process.

the doctor stuck the needle in causing erin to squeal and look away. harry cringed as her blood was now filling the syringe. she put her head deep in harry's coat, burying it deep.

"not fond of needles i see," the doctor remarked with a big smile, "don't worry, it's all over...now," he said pulling the needle out of her arm and replacing it with a cotton ball.

"needles are the worst," erin stated making the doctor laugh. "once you get use to them, they aren't so bad. when i was an intern, me and my friends use to practice using needles on each other," dr. archibald recalled.

"that sounds like a nightmare," a wide-eyes erin mumbled. the doctor shook his head at her, smiling. harry's jaw clenched. what kind of a fucking doctor takes this long to do one test? best in the city my ass, he thought.

in truth, harry was nervous. there was a chance that she could be pregnant, and there was a chance that she was lying about the whole thing.

"we are going to test your blood for the pregnancy hormone hgc," dr. archibald explains, "okay, so i'm going to go take this down to the lab,"  he picked up the test tube with the blood inside.

"how long will the test take doctor?" harry asked curiously. if it is a simple test, it shouldn't take so long.

erin hit him on the arm. "let the doctor do his thing sugar bagel," she hissed.

"well since you're in such a hurry, mr. styles, we will rush it for you. it will take an hour the most," the doctor politely replied. dr. archibald could tell that harry was very anxious to see the results.

"harry barry, come over here please," erin batted her eyelashes sweetly. harry raised an eyebrow at her.

he moved towards her carefully and was met with a tight hug. "i love you hazza boo. you're gonna be the best father ever," she smiled widely.

"we don't know that you're pregnant yet, erin. we have to wait for the results," harry pointed out. he wiggled his way out of her hug and stood on the other side of the room.

harry knew that he was being a fucking jerk right now. he was still mad at her for bringing up his father. harry didn't have an average childhood where him and his father would play catch in the backyard. no, he only had his mother who was always working to make ends meet for them.

"i can't believe you, harry. why the hell would i fake a pregnancy?" erin huffed in annoyance. her arms were crossed and her mouth was pressed in a thin line.

harry rolled his eyes, "oh come on, erin. i was going to leave. you had no more cards left to play. you knew that you had taken it too far," he pointed his finger in her face.

erin teared up, hurt that her husband would think that of her.

erin was always playing the victim in these situations. harry couldn't deal with this right now. he marched out of the room and down the hall. he took a seat in the hospital's cafeteria, needing to cool off.

after two can's of coke, a chicken sandwich and two packs of m&m's, harry heads back to the private room that he and erin were in.

as he opened the door, erin went full blast yelling on him. "what the hell harry! you can't just walk out whenever you feel like it! what does that say for our baby, huh? i can't believe you left me in here all alone!" she began.

"you have your phone, erin! you aren't completely alone. look, lets just not fight right now, okay?" harry sighed.

"you're right, sorry harbear. i'm just feeling so emotional right now," erin mumbled weakly.

harry frowned, feeling very guilty right now. he wrapped his arms around his wife, holding her tight as they wait for the test results.

the doctor came in with a clipboard in his hand. "sorry for the wait, i know you guys are very busy people. would you like me to tell you the results or would you like to read it yourself?" dr. archibald asked, his face giving nothing away.

"we would like to know right now," harry stated, clearing his throat. this was the moment he was waiting for, the moment of truth.

"....well," the doctor began dramatically, "congratulations you two! you guys are going to be parents!".
