Miley's POV

I woke up to me leaning on Nick. I looked at him and he was awake watching TV.

"Hey." He says softly.

"Hi...did I fall asleep?"

"Yeah, you did."

"For how long?" I ask.

"Mm, not too long. Maybe about twenty minutes."

"Shit I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry, I'm here for you." 

"Fuck...it wasn't a dream was it?" Nick shakes his head with a frown.

"No, I'm sorry." He replies. My phone starts to ring. I look at it and debate whether I answer it or not.

"Fuck..."

"Is it Liam?"

"Yeah. I don't know if I can talk to him without crying. I know he's gonna ask how it went."

"I'm right here if you need someone."

"I'll answer it but I won't tell him over the phone. Sure he can be an ass sometimes but he doesn't deserve to find out over the phone." I say, Nick nods in agreement. "Hello Liam."

"Hey. Look Miley, I'm really sorry okay? I'll admit I forgot what time your appointment was, I'm sorry."

"It doesn't matter anymore."

"How'd it go? How's the baby?" I start to tear up again but hold it back. "Miley?" I clear my throat before I spoke.

"Um, I'd rather talk to you in person about it. It'll be better than over the phone."

"What is it? Twins or something?" He jokes. "Miley I'm kidding you don't have to cry. I'll be there soon, I'm leaving now."

"Okay, I'll see you soon. Bye."

"Bye."

I put my phone down and continued to cry. Nick held me again and kissed my forehead. 

"I'm staying until Liam gets here." He says.

"You don't have to."

"Yes I do, and if you want someone else here after Liam just give me a text or call. You know I'll drop whatever I'm doing and come see you."

"Wait a minute- where the fuck are my boys?" I ask. "Mom of the year, forgetting about her fucking kids."

"I texted Liam and asked to pick them up and take them to his place, I knew you needed to be alone. Well, somewhat alone. You needed support."

"Thank you Nick."

"You're welcome."

After waiting a while Liam showed up with Jonah, Cameron, and Bentley.

"Hey, so how'd it go?" Liam asks as he comes in. "And why'd Nick text me to pick up the boys? They've been home alone before, it wasn't gonna be that long."

"What was the appointment for mommy? You said you'd tell us today."

"Um...I uh- I can't really- tell you boys right now."

"Go outside boys, mom and I need to talk." The boys left the living room and went outside while I waited.

"Miley do you want me here to help you?" Nick asks me, I nod in response.

"I can't say it."

"Okay, I can explain for you." Nick and I sat on the couch and Liam sat in the chair.
