*2 Weeks Later*

Liliana's POV

"Well, she's perfectly healthy. Another 10 weeks to go." The doctor smiles, wiping the gel off my stomach.

"That's exciting." I smile.

"It sure is. You remember your due date, right?" She asks me. I was told this information a few months ago but, today, when Dr. Reynolds asked, I had forgotten.

"Yep, November 25th." I tell her.

"Good, you're going to want to mark that down on you calendar Miss. Irwin." She chuckles. "Be sure to remind her to do that when she gets home." She tells Calum.

Unfortunately, Ashton and Luke are busy and Michael isn't in my life anymore. Therefore, I had no one to bring me to my appointment today. So, Calum offered. "I will." He smiles.

"Will we be seeing you on the day of the delivery?" I ask her.

"No, we will not be seeing each other. But, after your daughter is born, she will be needing a pediatrician. And you will also have to come back here one more time, just to make sure everything is okay." She explains.

Nodding my head, I smile and we say our goodbyes. "That was so cool." Calum grins, as we walk down the hallway.

"Yeah, it is. I always love seeing them." I reply.

As we walk through the doors, Calum opens his mouth to speak but is interrupted by camera clicks. A sea of heads replaced by cameras, captured the image of me and Calum walking out of the OBGYN. The two of us push though the crowd as we try to make it to the car.

Seeing as we weren't aware there would be any apps around, we didn't have anything to protect our selves. I cover my pale, broken out face behind my hand while Calum hides inside a hoodie. All that's heard is a bunch of jumbled up yelling and people asking us questions too personal to answer.

We finally get into the car and Calum turns on the music.

"What doesn't kill you makes you wish you were dead.

Got a hole in my soul, growing deeper and deeper.

And I can't take one more moment of this silence.

The loneliness is haunting me.

And the weight of the world's getting harder to hold up."

I chuckle the lyrics, "What are you laughing about?" Calum asks.

"Those lyrics are literally our lives."

"We can hold the weight of the world though." He says, "We have been for the past three years."

"I don't know anymore. There's just been so much shit going on, it's crazy. We're all upset right now, none of us are in a good place."

"That doesn't matter, Lil. All that matters is that we the four of us have each other and we're all strong people. We can get past anything but, the only way we can is if we do it together." He smiles. 

"Well damn. You're in an inspirational mood today, aren't you?" I chuckle. 

"I could be inspirational from time to time." He frowns. 

"Obviously." I smile. 

"Oh, by the way, you still like Michael right?" He asks. 

My heart races at the sound of his name, "I mean, kind of. W-why?"

"Well, I have a plan."

"A plan? For what?"

"To make him jealous." 

"Calum, he has Crystal. I'm sure he's happy with her." 

"I doubt it."

"What's your so called 'plan'?" I ask him. 

"Date me."

"What?! Calum, if we break up, it'll ruin our friendship forever. No way, sorry." 

He laughs, "No, no. Not like actually date. Fake date."

"What do you mean?" I ask. 

"Well, it's simple, Lil. Go out in public together, hold hands and give each other cheek kisses. If we do it enough, the paps will catch us and then the fans. The news is bound to get to Michael. Then, after awhile of seeing his best friend and his band mate holding hands, he'll get tired of it and come crawling back to you." He explains to me. 

"Oh, okay. My goal is to get him back before the baby is born. So, when do we start?" 

"Whenever you feel like it, I guess. There's ten weeks until mini Irwin gets here so, that's how long we have."

"Alright, then we start tomorrow." I smile. 

He nods and we continue on our way home.

Hello

Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. 

I started writing the part where the go to the store and stuff but, I decided to keep it for the next chapter. That's why this one is short. But, if you think about it, shorter chapters=longer book.
