Maybe It Was Meant To Happen ~ larry mpreg au ~ book 1

23. The numbers are definitely against us

HARRY

Harry woke up that Saturday morning to his phone ringing. He groaned, he didn't like to be woken up like that, especially on a Saturday. He stretched his arm and blindly searched for his phone on the nightstand until he found it. He glanced at the screen and he saw it was his mum. Why was she calling so early?

"Hi mum".

"Hi honey, did I wake you up?" she asked.

"Yeah" He replied and he couldn't help but yawn.

"I'm sorry, it's 11 already, I thought you were going to be up by now" Anne said.

Was really that the time? He turned around on the bed and realized Louis was not there. Why didn't he wake him up?

"It's okay mum, what's up?" Harry asked.

"Nothing specific, I just miss you, I haven't seen you in months" she replied.

Harry felt bad about that. He had always made the effort to go back home to see his mum once a month or every two months, and he sometimes brought Louis with him, but this school year he hadn't even thought about going.

"I'm sorry mum, everything has been so crazy lately that I haven't had the time to go home" Harry tried to explain.

"I know honey, I didn't call to make you feel guilty for not coming, I just wanted to check on you" she said with a warm voice.

"Oh, okay" he said feeling relieved

"So how are you? How are your classes?" She asked.

"I'm great mum and uni is good too" Harry replied.

"Yeah? And what about Louis? How's the pregnancy going?".

"Good, we haven't had any more issues since the Halloween thing" He told his mum.

"What Halloween thing?" she asked.

Did he not call his mum to tell her what happened? He could have sworn he did. He looked up the ceiling trying to remember what he did the day they came back from the hospital; he called Gemma first they talked for like and hour and then he was going to call his mum but then... then Louis said he was craving gummy bears, so he went out to buy that and by the time he got back to the flat it had already slipped his mind. Harry had talked to his mum three times after that and it never occurred to him that he never told her.

"Um, well, I guess I forgot to tell you..." Harry said and went on to tell her everything that happened that night.

"Oh my god Harry! How is it possible that you forgot to tell me that something like that happened?!" Anne scolded.

"Mum I swear I didn't to it on purpose, I just forgot" Harry had a dejàvu moment, and he remembered why, Louis had said something similar to him when he forgot his mum was coming to town.

"Are you sure my granbaby is okay?" Anne asked.

"Yeah baby's fine, I told you, it was a big scare but everything is great".

"Harry you have to tell me this things"

"I know mum, I swear I'll keep you more updated on all things baby related" Harry said.

"Okay, you can start right now, tell me what's going on now with Louis and my granbaby" Anne said.

"Umm, okay... Louis is 16 weeks pregnant today actually and his bump is so cute mum, it has grown a lot in the last few days, it's amazing. He thinks that it's bigger than it should be at this point and he keeps saying that he looks fat but I think he looks great".
