Harry Blurbs

Pregnancy Test

Y/N sat on the edge of the bath while Harry sat on the toilet seat, his hands resting on his wife's knees and his eyes trained on her face, taking in every feature that he saw. He paid attention to the way her lips would purse whenever she took a rather deep breath; the way her eyes closed for a few seconds every other time she blinked- mainly in anticipation; the way her nose wiggled a couple of times when would make certain facial expressions; her cheeks that held a slightly pinker than normal colour to them; her lips that were wet from the amount she'd been licking them in nervousness; and the way she would look up at him every now and then and smile at him lovingly.

Five months in the making had led them to this day, and sure they had sat in this exact position before and done the same thing, but this time it felt different. They were both hoping for a more positive outcome, though they wouldn't admit that to the other. Harry squeezed Y/N's knees gently, urging her to look up at him and he caught a soft smile make its way to her lips for a mere two seconds before it had disappeared again. She gulped quickly before hearing the alarm sound on Harry's phone, indicating that they could look.

They had been sat for three minutes in dead silence, no words being spoken to one another and no other sounds in the house around them. Harry looked up at his wife expectantly but found the test still face down in her hands.

"I can't look, Harry. I want this to be it so badly." A deep breath was taken from her as she stared at her husband and watched as he held her free hand and pulled her up so they were both stood. He placed the test on the side of the sink, knowing that they could look at it shortly, before wrapping his arms around the top of her body and pulling her closer to him; her own arms wrapping around his torso tightly.

"I want this to be it too. But if it isn't there's next month. We can get a check-up and make sure that everything is okay, and we can get advice if we need to. I love you so much, and no matter what the outcome is today, you're my wife and I will be here for you through everything."

"I'm getting tired, Harry. Month after month we've been doing every little thing that we can to get pregnant, and it just doesn't seem to be working. It's so deflated seeing just one line every damn time I take one of these stupid tests and I can't get it out of my head that maybe there's something wrong with me or that I'm not relaxed enough or-"

Harry tightened his grip around his wife and kissed the top of her head as he cradled her to calm her down from the hysterics she'd been getting herself into.

"Hey, there's nothing wrong with you. Nothing at all. I can only imagine how hard it's been for you having to go through so much crap and I honestly don't know how you've done it. You are the strongest, most amazing person ever and the day we get to bring our baby into the world will be the best day of my life- besides marrying you, of course. We will get through this, I promise."

"I'm just so damn tired. I love you so much, but it's starting to become a chore to have sex. We haven't had sex 'properly' in almost half a year." She used her fingers to put air quotes around properly which caused Harry to chuckle slightly before he rubbed at her back and pressed his lips to the top of her head with a deep breath.

"I understand, how about if this isn't the one, we take a break for a month or two? I really want a baby, but I want you to be happy and healthy and not feeling like us having sex is a chore, because that's the last thing I want." [Y/N] could sense the slight hurt in Harry's voice and so she lifted her head to look into his eyes- the eyes she would never bore of staring into.

"That sounds good. I'm sorry."

"There is absolutely no need to be sorry! If you need a break from trying for a baby, then that's what we'll do. We'll take time to focus on us again. Even if this test is positive, we're going to focus on just us for a little while. I love you, you know that right?" A small nod was given and Y/N's eyes glistened ever so slightly.

"I love you too. Now can we look at this damn test before it gives us a false reading?" Harry chuckled before nodding his head quickly, taking the test and placing it back in his wife's hands. "I want you to look first. I'm always the first to look."

"Are you sure?"

"Just turn it over."

Harry stood in silence for a few seconds, his brows furrowing and his teeth coming to bite on his bottom lip. Y/N couldn't read his emotions so she ducked her head so she could look at him properly. When he didn't move, she placed her hand on top of his left forearm, trying to get his attention.

"Harry, just tell me that it's negative. I know it-"

"You're pregnant." Y/N herself then became still, her brain not believing her husband who stood in front of her.

"You're joking."

"You're pregnant." He turned the test around so she could read it, and there on the digital screen read the word 'pregnant', Harry's hands starting to shake as the information hit him.

"I'm pregnant. A baby. We're having a baby." Harry placed the test back on the sink and stood in front of Y/N once again, his mouth parted in shock and his hands still shaking. The couple had expected themselves to scream and jump when they found out that they were finally pregnant, though they both stood in silence with their eyes fixed on each others.

"Holy freaking shit. We're having a baby." Harry's lips had started to upturn before Y/N's and he grabbed her body and pulled her into him. His arms came to hold her tight while her own arms stayed by her side, not knowing how to take the news in. After a few seconds of her not responding to his hug, he took a step back, his hands on her shoulders and his back arched. A single tear fell from her eye and as she finally looked up to him, she smiled the largest smile he had ever seen.

"We're having a baby." Harry sighed in relief and pulled her back into him once more, swaying her while they both laughed together.

"Our very own little love."

"Baby Styles. Oh my god, we're having a baby."

Harry's lips found Y/N's within a millisecond where they stayed for a few moments, them both wanting to savour the time for as long as they could. Before he could comprehend what was happening, Harry knelt down onto his knees, his head coming to his wife's lower belly and his hands coming to either side of it.

"I know you can't hear me yet and you're a tiny little bean still, but I love you so much already. I can't believe that you're really there. Mummy and I have spent months trying to get you and we finally have. I love you." His lips came to press a chaste kiss just below her belly button before he stood himself up and watched as Y/N wiped away tears from her cheeks.

"You're the best daddy already."

"And you're the best mummy."
