Harry's POV

I ran out of Aprils office, I couldn't stand it any longer. I can't stand her knowing she killed our child, our sweet innocent child. If it wasn't for her, he would be here on this beautiful earth today. I would be able to hold him for the first time, I would be able to tell him I love him, for the first time. I would be able to watch him take his first steps. Now? I can't do that, because of her!

I got in my car and blasted the music to drown out my constant crying. I know I never knew she was pregnant until about thirty minutes ago, but hearing that you expect to see your child. You never expect to hear that he has died.

I pulled into the driveway of mine and Lou's flat and ran upstairs before anyone could see me. I made it to my room with no time to waste. I sat on my bed and put my hands over my face.

I cried for hours, I never thought the tears would stop. They finally did, after god knows how many hours. I slowly got up from my bed and walked into my bathroom. I looked into the mirror to see me, only it didn't look like me. I looked like all my emotions have drained out of my body, I look like I'm just a body cavity. There is nothing in me. I feel dead.

I washed my face and looked at myself once again. I pinched my cheeks to give them a little colour. I worked for a moment, then i just went back to the pale emotionless body cavity.

I slowly walked down the stairs, I was holding on to the railing so I didn't let myself fall down the stairs. "Hey haz!" Louis chirped cheerfully. "Hi." I said simply. Louis looked at me like I was a ghost. "Harry, what's wrong?" He asked with all his seriousness. "You know the girl I love to the ends of the earth, April?" I said, even though he knew who April was. "Yeah, what happened? Oh god she rejected you! That bitch!" Louis snapped. I took a long needed breath in and began on my long story of how April was pregnant. How he had died, how I called her some harsh words.

"Harry." Louis said softly has he place his hand reassuringly on my knee. "I don't know how you're feeling, but I can see it has had a massive impact on you. It wasn't Aprils fault, she couldn't prevent the fire from happening. I honestly think you should apologise. She hurt your feelings today by telling you about your child, but you also hurt hers. You need to apologise, you love her. You never meant a word that you said to her." He continued.

He was right. I did love April. I love her with all my heart, to infinity and beyond and nothing will ever change that, not even this hard time. I need to apologise, I will apologise. "How do I know she will forgive me though, Lou?" I said. "She probably won't, but you need to. You need to apologise for you. If she doesn't forgive you, keep trying. Make it up to her, you have all the money in the world. Do something special! What ever you do, make sure it comes from the heart. No looking on google ideas, that's just cheap and not special nor is it meaningful." He laughed.

I knew he was serious. He was speaking from experience. He googled ideas for cute dates for him and his ex, now he's an ex for a reason. "Okay Lou, I will. I will think very hard. I will do what ever it takes to get her to forgive me." I said seriously. Talking to Louis has made me cheer up a bit, not much though. It's still enough to plan something special for her.

Aprils POV

I eventually had to leave the office, I made it home by 12am. I walked into the house to see Ryan on the couch, wide awake and waiting for me. "ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME!" He screams. "What no! Ryan it's not what it looks like, I swear!" I exclaim. "YOURE CHEATING ON ME YOU STUPID BITCH!" He screams again, this time only stepping closer and closer pointing his finger at me over and over again.
