My heart was racing uncontrollably.

Just thirty more seconds until I find out if I'm pregnant, if there is life inside me.

There was a gentle knock on the door and Eleanor poked her head through. "Is everything okay Ave?" Eleanor asked.

"Yeah, just waiting for the result." I have never been in such anticipation before in my life.

As the countdown from my phone reaches ten I start to countdown with it.

Nine...

Eight...

Seven...

Six...

Five...

Four...

Three...

Two...

One...

I silence my alarm and take the test into my hand. The stick is shaking because I shaking so much.

The climax is too much.

I take a deep breath before turning around the test, seeing the result.

Positive.

Shit. Shitty shit shit.

It could be wrong, yeah. It's probably wrong, I tried to convince myself.

A tear trickled down my cheek.

I open the door to see El standing there her eyes as wide as the world, I handed her the test.

The next thing I know she wraps her arms around me. "Everything's going to be okay, I'm here for you."

"What about, what about my career? It's over. No one wants a fat pregnant model on a catwalk or on a photo-shoot. I'm over El." I break down, what am I going to do?

"Everything's going to work out, I promise."

"But you can't promise that.. I need to call Niall, right now." I got my phone from the bathroom and unlocked it.

"Are you sure your ready to tell him?" Tell him, God no. I just need to sort our argument out.


"Hello?" His beautiful Irish accent said.

"Hey Ni, it's me."

"Hey, Ave." he said sort of awkwardly.

"Niall, go out. I was just being selfish and a brat and I'm sorry."

"No Ave, I'm in the wrong. I've been on tour for five months, I can't expect for you to wait any longer to see me."

"No Niall, you're going out and that's final, I'll FaceTime you later and we can talk properly then. Love you Niall."

"Love you too Avery."

"Hey El, will you stay tonight? We can have a proper girly night in, with movies and popcorn and chocolate ooh chocolate sounds so good right now." my mouth began to water.

"Of course, I'd love to."

"Let's go to the shop, get more tests, loads of chocolate and loads of popcorn and sweets."

I do not think it could be any clearer, I'm pregnant.

Great.

Fantastic.

Shit.



"Thanks for being here El, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have you." I said, we were both lying on the large L shaped sofa that faced the massive 70inch plasma screen television that was playing some boring show that El likes.

My apartment is like so...

On the left there were glass windows, that made up the wall, you could see out perfectly but no one could see in.

When you first enter the apartment it is very open. The main attraction is the large open living room which then connects to the large open kitchen which is on your right.

If you have ever seen the show Jessie on Disney Channel the stairs are like that shape, they curve.

Where is a closet on your left a few feet into the apartment.

If you take a left you are greeted by a short corridor which contains a cinema room that we barley use, a large bathroom and the office/library.

If you go up the stairs, there is a large corridor. Which contains two medium sized bedrooms and a large master bedroom, with two separate walk in wardrobes. There is also a massive bathroom.


"How are you going to tell Niall?" El asked.

"I honestly have no idea, I'm so nervous about how he is going to take it." I admitted then bit the inside corner of my lip, something I do when I am nervous.

"You'll be fine sweetie, I'm here for you. How about we FaceTime the guys?"

"Yeah." I got out the iPad and FaceTimed Niall.





"They are truly psychotic." I said in between laughs.

"Truly." Eleanor said laughing with me. "by the way, I'm going to bring you to the doctors tomorrow, so be up for nine." She told me, I looked at the time, half eleven I should go to sleep now.
