5 months as went by since Niall went to rehab. 5 fucking months. But Ashton and the boys had taken good care of me in the last months as well as Liam and Dani.

I had decided to keep the baby even if Niall was going to be here for me or not. I couldn't take the life of a innocent child. The little life growing inside of me was made by Niall and I, so I can't give it away. This is my child, our child. No one else's.

We haven't decided yet what was going to happen but we will take that when he comes home. Which is tomorrow.

After Niall had announced that he would be going to rehab I was happy but at the same time heartbroken. I was so glad that he would do anything to get better for the sake of himself, me and our baby but he has missed things. My first ultrasound, my belly growing. As for Liam and Dani, we're taking steps. I'm still mad at them and the rest of our friends for keeping Niall's drug issue a secret from me but I couldn't hold a grudge towards them for the rest of my life. They are my family after all.

Liam took me to my first ultrasound and when the little creature popped up on the screen, a few tears had escaped his eyes. And Dani had taken me to some and the girls. They had all shed some tears, but all I could ever think about was Niall. How was he doing? is he getting any better?

Today was different though, since Ashton and the boys were taking me to the ultrasound. At first when they had suggested it, I was kinda skeptical but had agreed. It wasn't that I didn't trust them because I did, it was just the question if they would behave. They were such little boys, pulling pranks and making a mess of everything all the time.

I had moved back into Niall and I's flat. It was lonely without him but I tried to keep myself occupied so I wouldn't think about Niall. Liam and Dani suggested that I should stay with them for when Niall was gone but I just couldn't. I needed to come home.

Ashton and the boys knew about everything and that's why they have been keeping an eye on me. They even decided to have sleepover when it suited them. They would all come over and we would watch movies and then fall asleep in the living room.

I walked out of the front door and locked it behind me before walking over to their flat, just walking straight in. Calum, Luke and Michael were suited on the couch playing Xbox as usual. I went and sat down beside Calum.

"Hey" he smiled and pulled me in for a hug. I hugged him back before pulling away.

"How are you feeling today?" He asked and I was about to answer when Ashton walked into the living room.

"Lex, we need to leave now. I promised your brother to be right on time for the appointment. Here, have this." Ash said handing me a banana. I rose my eyebrow as he put it in my hand.

"Jeez you're acting like Liam." I said and Calum laughed. Ashton scoffed and helped me up from the couch. Ashton, Luke, Calum and Michael and grown close with Liam and the rest of the boys. It wasn't always for the good. All of them were always so overprotective.

All of us scrambled out of their flat and headed towards Ashton's car. Ashton got in the drivers seat, Michael in the passenger seat and me between Calum and Luke in the backseats.

I laid my head on Luke's should had closed my eyes. I was so tired. And I missed Niall. Hell how I missed Niall.

"So Niall's coming home tomorrow. Are you excited?" Michael asked.

"Yeah, I miss him." I said with my eyes still closed. The conversation went silent as Ashton continued to drive to the doctor's office.

"So how are you doing?" Dr. Conner asked as I laid down on the table while the boys were seated in chairs right next to me.

"So are one of you guys the father?" She asked hopefully and I gave her a look. 

"No, He´s still on a business trip like I told you." I sighed and she nodded. I had been lying to her because I didn´t want anyone to judge Niall for being in rehab. I was proud of him for making that decision. "These are the uncles; Ashton, Luke, Calum and Michael." I introduced and she gave them a small hi before Michael´s high pitched voice filled the room.

"We´re going to be uncles?!" Michael yelled and I smiled at them. "Of coarse, you guys are family." I replied and they all sat with satisfied grins plastered on their faces. They gave me a quick hug before sitting down.

"Okay Lexie, you know the routine. The gel, ultrasound and checking if everything is okay."  I lifted my shirt up and she squeezed the aqua coloured gel on my tummy. I scrunched my nose at the coldness but I soon got used to it. 

"So when  do I get to meet the father?" Damn, she was curious. "When he gets back which is tomorrow, so I guess the next appointment." I smiled. Dr. Connor moved the device over my stomach and then she found a heartbeat.

"There it is" She pointed at the screen and Calum rose up from his chair. "That is so cool." Ashton said amazed.

"You can get a picture if you want. If it´s alright with Lexie." She said and Calum turned to me with big puppy eyes.

"Please." He begged and I let out a laugh. "Of coarse" I agreed and Calum smiled.

"Excuse me? I want one as well." Ashton said. Michael and Luke agreed.

"You can all have one. Let me get them for you." Dr. Connor left the room and came back 10 minutes later with a stack of pictures.

"One for each one of you" She said and handed one to each one of the boys. They thanked her and looked down at their pictures.

"And here are for Liam and the others." I nodded and held the pictures in my hand. How I really wished that Niall was here along with the boys.

"Well, everything is perfectly fine so you can go home and rest now." She said and I thanked her and walked out of the office with the boys right beside me.
