"LAUGHING SO DAMN HARD!" I sang on the top of my lungs.
"CRASHED YOUR DADS NEW CAR!" Ellie sang back.
"ALL THE SCARS WE SHARED!" I sang.
"I PROMISE I SWEAR!" we sang in unison.
We laughed as the song went on in the background. Ellie plopped down beside me on the couch.
"Jesus Ellie, I missed you so much." I say admiring the flat.
"I know, I missed you too." she replied, hugging me.
Ellie and I had been friends since grade school. Joey, Ellie and I were inseperable. After Joey and I moved to London, Ellie came shortly after. When it came time to go to college, Ellie came to New York while I stayed behind in London.
"You know, it's too bad you didn't date Harry longer. " said Ellie.
"And why is that? " I asked, rubbing my belly that was starting to show.
"Because you could've hooked me up with Zayn! Duh." she said, acting like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
I shook my head, sitting up a bit. "Ellie Palmer, you are crazy. Besides, he's dating Perrie."
She groaned. "Screw me."
I laughed as she stared at me.
"What? I'm so serious!" she said.
I laughed. "Yeah, that's why I'm laughing."
We sat in a comfortable silence, lost in our own thoughts.
"Jenny? " asked Ellie.
"Hmmm? " I ask.
"Are you ever gonna call Harry?" she asked, eyeing my intently.
I sighed. "I don't know."
"But Jenny, it's his bab-" she started to say.
"I know Ellie! I know who's baby it is. I just need time." I say, getting frustrated.
She sighed. "Okay."

Zayn's POV
We sat around the table in the conference room. The boys on one side, Simon on the other. Everyone was here- except Harry.
"You lads ready to start? " asked Uncle Si.
"Yes." we all said in unison.
He took a deep breath as he rubbed his hands together.
"So I'm pretty sure you all have an idea on why we're here." he began.
"If this was about me giving CPR to Kevin then I'm not sorry. I couldn't let him die! He was my best friend!" Louis exclaimed, burying his head in his hands.
Simon looked questioningly at Louis whilst Liam patted the older boy on his back in comfort.
It took all of my will to hold back my laughter.
"No Lou, we'll talk about that later. This meeting is about...." Simon took a deep breath. "About Harry."
