One Way or Another

Harry's POV

I pull up my shorts and fix my hair before skipping out of my room. I hurry to the front door, but Gemma stops me. Being the older beta sister, she gave me a look up and down.

"Are you really going to wear that?" She asks, arms crossed and eyebrow raised. 

I look down at my outfit. Poofy legged pink shorts and a white crop top with spaghetti straps. I pout at Gemma, putting my hands on my hips. "I think it's cute!"

Gemma scoffs, "Yeah, clearly it is! But Harry, I can practically see your nipples through that!"

She points at my chest, making me look down at it. She's right, the bump of my nipples are visible through the shirt. But it's hot so I like it. 

"Whatever, Gemma." I push past her and start my walk to the park to meet Luke.

"Luke!" I call as I see the boy sitting on a bench. He looks up from his cellphone and waves me over. "Hey!"

Luke smiles, "Hey, you look cute!" He admires my outfit.

"Thanks! Gemma tried to keep me from leaving because of it. But I'm going to dress however I want!" I state, giving a dirty look to an older group of majority alphas that look at me in disgust. I shake my head, "Why can't omegas wear pants? Like what's so wrong with it?"

Luke nods, "Yeah, it's not like alphas would wear pants like those. They're super cute and not alpha-like." I pat my cute little shorts and breath in deeply. I lean back against the bench and watch people walk around. Luke clears his throat, "So, there's something I want to talk to you about."

I turn to him, pulling my leg up to get closer to him. I put my hand on his knee, sensing his discomfort. "What's up, Luke?"

He takes a shaky breath before turning to me. A scared tone takes over his voice, "I-I'm pregnant..."

A silent shock follows.
Do I congratulate him?
Do I comfort him?
Do I help him hide it?

"Luke," I start, my hand still holding him, "So, what are you thinking? Do you want to keep it?" He bites his lip, tears in eyes. With his whole body trembling, he nods. I smile softly, "Then that's wonderful, Luke!" He breaks out into a smile. "I'm so happy for you!"

Luke pulls me into a thankful hug. I pat his back as he calms down. I can feel his smile against my shoulder. 

Luke pulls back and wipes his tears, "Thank you, Harry!" 

Luke grabs my hand, letting me feel what will soon be a bump. I smile as I look as his currently flat belly. As I feel around, I ask, "So whose the father?" Luke's hand tenses over mine. I look up at him to see his confused face. His eyes curious and a pout present. "What?" I ask, clueless.

After a moment more of silence, Luke makes a face of realization. "Oh!" He exclaims with a grin. "Yeah, they uh, they don't really teach this in school. But uh, when you have more than one mate, when you get um, pregnant... the baby is all of theirs. Like their DNA mixes and it adds to mine, which gives us a baby that has everyone's DNA." A light blush covers his cheeks.

Oh. That makes sense.

I nod, "Oh, cool!" I pause, "Wait, do the guys know?"

"You're the first..."

"What? But Luke! You need to tell them!" I argue, "They'll be happy!"

Luke shrugs, "I don't know. You saw how worried I was when I got back into being nerdy and shit."

I shake my head, "Yeah, but then they all loved you still! And they supported you and let you work when you asked! So whether you're pregnant or not, they're going to love you forever!"

Luke breaks into a smile, his eyes tearing up again. "Really?"

"Yes!" I laugh, "Go tell them, Luke. I'm with you, and they will be too."

I knock on Mr. Horan's door as the time comes for me to be there for dinner. I put my hands in my pocket as I wait for it to answer. When it opens, Zayn greets me with a smile.

"Hey there, Harry! Thanks for coming!" He says sweetly. 

I smile kindly, "Hey Zayn, it's nice to see you again."

He invites me inside, leading me into the living room. As soon as I step in there, I immediately notice one man in particular.

Mr. Louis, My Alpha, Tomlinson...
