Save you

Chapter 19

Everyone was quiet as the doctor began to speak. “Uh… well… Leila you are… uh…” The doctor stuttered nervously.

“Out with it!” I shouted out of frustration.

“Pregnant.” The room became so silent you could hear a pin drop. The Doctor cleared his throat and left the room. Nobody said anything at all. Just pure silence.

“I don’t want it.” Leila said barely above a whisper.

“What do you mean?” I asked looking up at her.

“I don’t want this baby… get it out of me.” She said staring at the wall.

“Leila… you can’t do that.” Liam spoke up.

“Yes I can. It’s my choice not yours. I don’t want anything to do with this… thing.” She spat coldly.

“Leila stop. You can’t just do that.” Zayn tried to convince her.

“Why not?” She furrowed her eyebrows together looking intensely at him.

“Because it’s a human being… you can’t just… kill it.” The room returned to silence again. Nobody even knew what to say. The door opened and everyone turned their heads to look at the person. It was a tall man. I don’t know who he was though.

“Hello, I’m Eric. I heard poor little Leila was hurt… and forgot everything. I’m her boss, just wanted to stop by and check on her.” The man spoke slowly. I looked over at Leila and her eyes were wide… she knew him. “So Leila… how are you?” He asked smiling at her. She didn’t answer, just looked at him.

“Get away from me…” She said with clenched teeth.

“Leila who is he?” Niall asked looking confused.

Leila’s P.O.V.

I stared back at Eric. I remembered him. Everyone was looking at me while I stared at Eric. He brought his neck by his throat. Just as I was about to speak he made the ‘I’ll kill you’ gesture. My eyes widened.

“Uh.. I don’t know… who are you?” I asked even though I knew damn well who he was. The door opened again and a nurse walked in with a police officer. They both smiled at me but I didn’t return it.

“Aw a shame you don’t remember me. We were such good friends.” He pouted looking at me. I could tell he was on edge with the police being here. I decided to go for it.

“He did it!” I shouted pointing at Eric. Everyone looked confused. “He was the one that… uh…!” I couldn’t say the words. Harry turned around and looked at Eric, he looked terrified. Harry stood up out of the chair and walked slowly over to Eric… Eric took that as an opportunity to dart out of the room. Harry and the police officer ran after him. The nurse rushed over to me and started asking me stupid questions. I just rolled my eyes and looked over at the boys.

“Please leave me alone!” I snapped. “I’m sorry…” I apologized looking at the nurse.

“No it’s fine dear… if you need anything let me know please.” She smiled and left the room. I looked over at the four boys sitting there and though it was time to know.

“Who is Harry?” All the boys exchanged looks.

Liam talked first. “You and Harry have a relationship that really… no one can explain. Only you and Harry know what goes on in it.”

“It’s complicated.” Louis chuckled.

“I know I’m not one to tell you what to do but maybe you should take this as an opportunity to start over. You were really good friends, some things happened and you well… hated him…” Zayn said looking at me.
