Eleanor
I don't know how long I laid on the bed for, my sobs racking my body as the realisation that Louis left me because I'm possibly pregnant kicks in. Thoughts surround my mind, wondering what I'll do of I am pregnant. The fear that I might be takes over, and every time I think I'm done crying, the thought is etched back into my brain, making my sobs continue.
Eventually, I get myself up and pad across the plush carpet, towards the bathroom where I shower myself, brushing my teeth also.
When I'm out of the shower, I get into a tracksuit, grabbing a suitcase from the back of mine and Louis shared wardrobe. I begin packing my knickers, bras, socks, tops, pants, everything, until the bag is full and all my clothes are emptied from the room. I sniffle lightly as I put my make up and toiletries into a backpack. I descend the stairs, putting my suitcase and bag by the backdoor. I go into the kitchen, sitting on the barstool as I ring up Dani. as she answers the phone, the emotions kick in and the thoughts of what I'm about to do,
"Dani," I sniffle into the phone, "Can I stay with you for a bit?"
"Eleanor, what's wrong? What happened, are you crying?" Dani's concern seeps through the receiver,
"Louis left me," I sob into the phone, "I think I'm pregnant,"
"What? El babe, come over and stay as long as you need,"
"I'm coming now," I sniffle, a tear streaming down my face, my nose turning red,
"See you soon petal," she says
I hang up, sniffling and trying to wipe my pouring tears. The door opens and shuts, a startle running through me. Louis walks into the kitchen, holding two bags, placing them on the counter. His face is pale, his lips set in a tight line.
"Why are there bags in the halls?" He whispers, his voice cold and afraid
I burst into tears, running over to him and gripping onto his shirt, wrapping my arms around him.
"I thought you were leaving me," I sob into him,
"Ellie," Louis says, startled, pushing me away from him to look at my face, "I would never, ever do that to you,"
He wipes away the tears rolling down my cheeks, pressing his lips to my forehead,
"What's in the bags?" I sniffle, walking over and opening them
A look of embarrassment crosses Louis face as I search through them.
I pull out three pregnant tests, two baby gros, one white and the other yellow, a pack of nappies, baby wipes, a nappy bag, a little pink hat and a little blue hat, a jumper with a giraffe on it and two packs of baby aprons.
I look up at Louis, "Babe," I whisper, my mouth curling into a smile, "You went out and bought all this?"
Louis shrugs, a grin on his face, "I want a baby,"
I smile, fondling the pregnancy tests.
"Should I..." I look up at Louis,
He nods at me
****
"Has it been ten minutes yet?" Louis asks,
"Eight," I tell him, fiddling my fingers together,
"What will we call it?" Louis asks,
"What?" I question
"The baby. I like Keenan if it's a boy, maybe Emma if it's a girl, what do you think?"
"Louis, we don't know if I am yet," I laugh, nervously as I grit my teeth together,
"Yeah, yeah, sorry you're right," he grows silent,
"Is it time yet?" He asks after a minute
I inhale sharply, nodding my head. I pick up the first stick,
"Well?" Louis grins at me, bouncing in his seat,
My words come out as a whisper, "Negative,"
Louis aura drops, as he sinks down into his seat, "What about the others? You should never trust one,"
I check the other two, "Negative," I whisper to him
He stands up, pacing back and forth before sitting in front of me and taking my hands in his. As he looks at me, I see the tears glistening in his eyes,
"Eleanor,"
"Louis..."
"We've been together for how long?"
"Eh, nearly two years?"
"Which is a long time, right?"
I nod my head, not knowing where the conversation is going,
"We should have a baby," he finishes, looking at me,
I choke on my own saliva as I look at him, snatching my hands out of his,
"What? No! Louis what's wrong with you?!"
Louis looks at me deeply, "Think about it El, a baby, our baby, our little baby that we made together,"
I shake my head, "No,no,no,"
"It'd be amazing Eleanor! Please, think about it, please Ellie,"
I look at him, the thoughts floating in my head,
I inhale sharply, already regretting my words before then even leave my mouth,
"Okay," I whisper, "Lets make a baby."
