"I'm scared," Niall mumbles softly, he swings his legs back and forth as he sat on the examination table.
"Ni—"
"No, listen. I've been lying to you, to everyone really, I haven't been feeling well. There's times where I get a sharp pain and I can't even move, it's terrifying." He lets out a shaky breath. "I don't think we'll be getting good news today."
"Why didn't you say anything to me?" Harry didn't understand why Niall wouldn't talk to him about that sort of things. "Niall, this has to stop, the suffering on your own, I mean. You have me, you have Eleanor, Zayn, Liam, Shawn. We're all here for you." He wraps his arms around him.
"I don't want to die, Harry." Niall mumbles against his shoulder.
"You're not going to die." He steps back only to lean back and kiss his cheek softly, then slowly drags his lips towards his mouth. He could feel Niall melt into him as he moved his lips against his.
A light knock on the door was heard followed by a 'oh' making the two pull away. Niall blushed as Harry smirked at them.
"Hello, boys." Doctor Rosemary walks in with Taron behind her. "Sorry for interrupting you." She laughs.
"You didn't," Niall quickly says.
"Should we start?" She smiles at them, she sits down on the stool and starts typing on the laptop. "You've gained weight, which is very good. Your blood pressure seems normal, also good. We'd like to do an ultrasound, if you could do it for me please?" She says to Taron who nodded.
"Could you roll up your jumper?" He turns on the machine and waits for Niall to get situated. "Ready?"
"While you do that, I'd love to speak to Harry." Rosemary turns her gaze to Harry who had a frown on his face.
"Right now?" Harry asks confused, he wanted to see his baby and also he didn't want to leave Niall with Taron.
"If you could please?" She stands up and starts heading out.
"I'll be right back, okay?" Harry pecks his lips quickly before following the doctor.
She takes him to the office and sits down, she drops the smile and looks at him. "Sit."
"What's going on?" He sits, he was starting to get a bad feeling and he hated it.
"We're in the last few months of this pregnancy, and though everything seems to be fine, it's not. Far from fine actually." She starts to take out some papers. "I'd like to talk to you about some options,"
"What options?"
"I'm afraid to tell you that Niall's chance of making it through this has gone down by a lot—"
"What? Why— you can't say that to me!" Harry felt like he had just been punched in the throat, he couldn't breathe properly.
"The baby needs room to grow and it doesn't have that, I'm surprised Niall hasn't complained about any pain." She looks at Harry seeing the tears in his eyes. "Harry, I'm still trying my best to find ways to keep them both safe, alive, but I'm running out of time. These are the only options and you need to hear them."
"No, I can't." He shakes his head.
"The first option, let Niall go through with this pregnancy and if any problems were to rise we'd try our best to find a solution. In my opinion this is the the most dangerous one for the both of them. But again, it's best if you hear them all." She pauses to see if Harry had anything to say and when he didn't say anything she continues. "Second option, have an emergency c-section as soon as possible. This can cause your baby to have problems, it's a huge risk but this whole pregnancy is a risk and that was to be expected. Last option, have Niall stay here in the hospital for the remaining weeks of the pregnancy, monitoring everything. This is quite similar to the first one but the difference is, it will be more tiring because we would be running tests on him nearly every hour."
