Orphan

Chapter 79

"Saw the damn weirdest thing." Niall walked in to the living room grabbing himself a glass, filling it with water. "What?" Louis questioned looking up from his phone. The boys were sat in on the sofas, just about ready to go. All except for Zayn who was waiting by the car having a smoke. "Harry giggling like a toddler on the floor beaten senseless with a pillow."
Louis snickered, "Well at least he's getting in touch with his inner child. It'll prepare him for the rest of his life – tragic really. Kids drain you of everything then give you a final 'fuck you' by forgetting you when they're older."
"I hear that, mate. I prefer not wasting my time and money." Niall muttered drinking his water as he leaned on the back of the couch where his girlfriend was sat, stroking her hair as he placed a kiss atop it. Abigail visibly became uneasy as she shifted and cleared her throat. Suddenly becoming sick to her stomach. 'Not now. Just not now.' She thought to herself fidgeting with her fingers. "What's wrong, princess?"
"Nothing..." she mumbled with a small reassuring smile. "Abigail's probably dreading the day there's a kid here to take care of too. You know Harry is just gonna leave her to babysit and clean up while he nurses his precious cargo of a girlfriend back to health. She's got him in the palm of her hand." Louis spoke, but Liam was quick to interject. "Louis would you shut the hell up. That's none of your business and not true anyway. If you wanna keep all your teeth I suggest you zip it."

Abigail let out a breath of relief at Liam's outburst. Whether it was to help her or to protect Harry's name – she thought it was the latter – she was grateful. Liam was the only one besides Monique who knew of the secret within her and Niall's reaction to a child...was horrifying to say the least. "I just realised, I forgot my jacket. Lemme go get it." Abigail stood to her feet, excusing herself from the conversation and walked briskly to the room, closing the door and speeding for the bathroom. She hurled into toilet, emptying the contents of her stomach into it. "You need to calm down for me," she mumbled quietly looking down at her stomach. "...or maybe I'm just nervous." She sighed standing to her feet and brushing her teeth, rinsing her mouth of the putridness that is vomit.

The bedroom door opened which resulted in Abigail quickly flushing the toilet and making her way inside. "Oh, hey baby."
"Can't find your jacket?" He mumbled nodding towards her. "What?" She furrowed her brows before realizing what he meant. "Oh, yeah no. I was thinking about which one to wear I dont wanna get too warm or wear something too heavy. Just had to pee first." She smiled making her way to the wardrobe and took out a suitable jacket to wear. "He doesn't know what he's getting himself into. She's ruining his life and he's letting it happen. He's going soft and it's all cause of her. We should get rid of her, it'll help everyone." Niall grumbled sitting down on the bed as he watched his girlfriend. "...should get rid of Harry that would solve everyone's problems." Abigail mumbled under her breath as she sighed. If it weren't for him, her boyfriend wouldn't be in this gang and she wouldn't be a slave in her own home, hiding what should be a happy moment in her life. "What's that?"
"Hm, I said if we got rid of her Harry would have more problems." Abigail shrugged turning around, making her way between Niall's legs as she wrapped her arms around him. Hands running through his tousled locks.

"That may be so, but this kid. Its gonna change our whole dynamic. And it's just extra leverage for people to use against us. An innocent child can be a hell of a lot more successful to use against us especially now that Harry's so soft. And the crying...fuck I'm gonna shoot myself in the head." Niall groaned throwing his head back, causing a tightened knot in Abigail's throat and stomach. How was she ever going to tell him about their child if he was so against it?

"We should go down, I'm sure they're all ready to leave now." Abigail mumbled kissing him softly as she pulled away. "Hm. Let's get wrecked tonight." Niall smiled wiggling his eyebrows at her, it was going to be hard avoiding alcohol with her boyfriend clung to her side tonight. But she had to try at the very least. As they descended into the living room everyone had just started heading out to the car, it was around 8pm already and they had another hour or so of driving to do to get to the club. The gang split into the two cars and headed off towards, what they'd hoped would be a good night.
