Bad Idea (Hariana)

041. BLUE AND PINK

BLAIR

IT had now been slightly under a month since the Billboard Awards and since i had accepted my Woman of the Year award.

After learning the truth about Scooter Braun and Jeff Azoff, I fired Scooter and hired a new manager. I was under a new agency, and my managers name was Kelsey. Harry hadn't yet found a new manager, which I know stressed him out deeply.

I did so much research on the girl before hiring her, because we couldn't afford to have another Jeff/Scooter fiasco.

And of course, Harry and I were now engaged.

I was slightly over 5 months pregnant, and today was the day that Harry and I were going to find out the gender of the baby.

We opted to have a small party with our family and close friends, and trusted Victoria with the information that held my baby's gender. Nobody else knew except for her, and we anxiously awaited the moment that the reveal my best friend had planned would start.

All of the people Harry and I loved most were gathered in our living room for the special occasion, catching up on life's most recent events. Harry and I sat in a loveseat in the corner of the living room, opting to keep to ourselves per usual.

I was mindlessly scrolling through Instagram as i waited for Victoria to arrive and announce the way the gender would be revealed.

To snap me out of whatever trance I was in, Harry gently nudged my shoulder, grabbing my attention instantly. I raised my eyebrows as a slight confirmation for him to continue the words he was about to speak.

"Are you excited?" He asked gently, wrapping his muscular arm behind my shoulder. I leaned into his embrace, inhaling the soft scent of his tom ford cologne.

The warm cotton fabric from his baby pink button up shirt hugged my cheek like a cloud, instantly putting my anxious self at ease.

"Nervous. But excited." I sighed gently. "Boy or girl?" He asked with a slight nod, pushing me out gently so he could face me. "Boy." I announced with a slight smirk, turning my body to face Harry on the couch who sat opposite of me.

"No fucking way. I say girl." He replied with a gigantic smile spread across his tan skin. "Well what do you want?" I pushed on, slightly hitting his solid chest.

"A girl! Obviously. Girls rule, boys drool." He chuckled slightly, running his tattooed hand through his long coffee colored hair.

"You're such a fucking dork." I giggled back, placing my hands into his. "What do you want?" Harry asked me, his face returning to his normal serious state.

I didn't even know what I wanted. To be honest, I didn't have a preference, and I think I would be happy either way.

"I don't know, Harry. Just a healthy baby, I think." I replied with a soft smile. Harry nodded in agreement, staring intensely at the dark wooden flooring placed below us. "You're right. But a girl would still be nice." He confessed with another pearly smile spread across his dreamy face.

My attention turned to the front door, which revealed a flustered Victoria stumbling into me and Harry's shared home.

"Okay, I'm here! Late, but here." She announced with a large sigh of relief, giant tote bags full of party supplies in hand. "Do you need some help?" Harry asked immediately, rising from his seat to help my flustered best friend.

"No no no!" Victoria yelled, waving Harry away from her. His eyes grew wide and his eyebrows raised up as he placed his hands in the air, avoiding confrontation from Victoria.

"This is your fuckin' gender reveal! Let me be in charge, damn!" She laughed. "Okay, now all of you need to disperse! Leave! Get out! Ho in the yard. Troye and I are gonna set this up." She announced, pointing to the front door of our home.

"What about me?! I'm just shit now?!" Mikey laughed, beginning to make his way out of the front door. "Fuck! Shit! No, stay! You can do heavy lifting. Stay inside." Victoria exclaimed, yanking Mikey backwards by the arm.

He stumbled backwards and complied to Victoria's request, leaning slightly onto the sounder in front of him. "Okay, leave!" Victoria screeched at the last few remaining guests, including Harry and I.

I waved for Harry to go on ahead outside without me. I approached Victoria quickly and tapped her back, making her jump around in fear.

"Shit! Don't fucking do that, B!" She laughed, placing both of her hands onto my shoulders. "Shut the hell up!" I began to laugh, "I just wanted to thank you, for everything. I don't fucking deserve a friend like you, it's crazy." I smiled, my eyes filling up slightly with tears.

"Oh, don't fucking thank me! It's the least I could do for you, Blair." She smiled, pulling my body into hers for a tight hug. "You smell good." I giggled loudly, breaking the awkward silence between us.

"Thank you! It's called Cloud by Ariana Grande. I don't know who she is, but it smells good." Victoria laughed as I nodded.

"Okay okay! Now go outside with Harry. Let me set this gender reveal up!" She yelled, opening the front door and pushing me outside.

"I'm having your baby!" I yelled loudly as i stepped outside. Harry turned his head slightly, a giant smile spreading across his face as he made eye contact with me.

"What?!" He smiled in his most dramatic voice, knowing exactly what I said. I ran down the steps of my front porch and wrapped my arms around him, staring up at him as we smiled at each other.

"None of your damn business, Harold!"
