The Baby Project | Harry Styles

Chapter 9- A Dinner Date

When Harry got home from the whole Phil incident, he found out that Cheryl wasn't there yet, which made him even more displeased. Poor Harry just wanted to hear about his tadpole of a baby. But no, Cheryl's not home yet, Harry told himself as he began to pout like a little three year old.

Harry walked to the sofa and clicked on the tele, soon turning to his favourite television show, Family Guy. But before Harry could start watching an episode, the lads strolled in one by one, and they all had questions.

"Hey Harry," Louis greets, plopping down next to him, "We've heard about your session with Phil."

Harry sighed with frustration as he rested his head in his hands. How can it possibly spread that fast, Harry thought.

"So what're you gonna do?" Niall asked sitting down as well.

Harry didn't know what he was going to do. He didn't even know what to think, or even how to function. All he knew was that he had to do as told or he'd be executed from One Direction, and he did not want that.

"I don't know." He shook his head slowly. He was starting to think picking Cheryl was a bad idea. Clearly she wasn't ready, and neither was he.

"Well what ever you do, just know we're here for you." Niall said, rubbing Harry's back soothingly. 

"Thanks guys." Harry smiled through his worries. He felt as if he were going to break down into a heap of tears, but he tried not to let them see that.

"Maybe you could take her out for dinner. I know this great place where you can eat a nice dinner, and then slow dance. It's very romantic." Liam suggested from a couple feet away. Harry perked his head up. That sounds like a magnificent idea to Harry, plus they could bond more.

"That sounds like a wonderful idea. Thanks Liam." Harry smiled again, but it was actually real this time, and he stood up from the sofa. "I think I'll call her now."

Once Harry was in his bedroom, he shut the door for privacy and dialed Cheryl's number. 

"Hello?" Cheryl's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey babe," Harry replied, "Would you like to go to dinner tonight?" The curly haired lad asked, getting straight to the point. 

"Oh, I'd love to! That sounds great!" She said excitedly, which made Harry smile to himself. She was probably excited because Harry's never asked her to dinner before.

"Okay wonderful. What time are you coming home?"

"In about two hours. I went to my Yoga class today, and I met these moms, and I'm out shopping with them. They are giving me so much information about the pregnancy and what to expect. They're really nice." Cheryl said even more excitedly. Harry's smile increased as his stomach started to churn. It did that whenever he felt strongly about Cheryl. He had no idea why, it just happened.
