The Notebook- Chapter 41

Sophia’s POV

“Josh…how-” I close my mouth again when nothing comes out. “Thank you.” I finally say after minutes of internal struggle. “I was a bit crazy- ok,  a lot crazy back there but you helped me and I-”

“Hey, it’s ok. I’m glad I followed you…and um, you’re pregnant.”

“I faintly smile, “Yea, pregnant.” I sit up, “Please don’t tell-”

“No, Sophia. Look, I know we barely know each other but I can’t do that. This is a baby we’re talking about, I can’t keep something like this from him.”

“Josh, I know what I’m asking is a lot but…I can’t- ha can’t know.” I take his hand, “Please, he’s already having a baby and I don’t want to make this at all worse than it already is.”

“Then what were you doing at his house?” he asks.

“We were living together but I can’t do it anymore, I won’t do it anymore.”

“I know you don’t know me but I know a lot about you. I don’t want you to think I follow or stalk you, but Zayn has told me a lot about you. He told me how you guys met and the journey that you guys have taken. I saw how much your departure affected him- please don’t cry, I don’t say this to make you feel bad.” he says apologetically.

“Sorry, it’s the hormones I guess.” I wipe away the tears, “I know how close you guys are and I would never ask you to do anything that would put a rift in that but I can’t be with him, he can’t know about this baby.” 

“Why? Please tell me what’s going on.” he pleads.

“Josh, I love Zayn more than I will ever love any other person in my life…but it seems that fate doesn’t want us together.” he killed my cousin, the only family I had left. I mask my anger, “I think that in the end, it was always meant to be him and Perrie.”

“No-”

“Yes, that’s what I think. Will you please help me, please.”

“Fine, but I want you to think about what you’re doing and be certain that this is the right choice.”

“It is.” I hug him, “Thank you. Ok, so I want to leave right now.”

“Where are you going though?” he asks as he helps me up.

“I don’t know, I’ve never been to Australia.” he smiles and helps me to the bathroom. “I’m glad I didn’t have to wear the hospital gowns.” I say as I get out. “Let’s go-”

“Quick, she needs attention immediately- not much time-”

Josh and I walk to the door and see all the commotion going on, “What do you- oh my God, Josh, that’s Danielle.” I say as the stretcher goes into some automatic doors.

“What?” he turns to the direction of where they took her, “Are you sure?”

Tears start falling down, “I’m positive, that was her.” I walk to the doors, “What happened?”

“Ok, you go back into your room-”

“No, I’m not-”

“Sophia, I’ll go and find out as much as I can, please go back to your room.”

I shake my head but agree, “Fine but please do everything you can to find out what happened.”

“I will,” he takes me to my room and then leaves. I pace around not being able to relax, “God, please don’t let anything happen to her. Please save her.” images of how she looked flash through my head and I shake them away. “Josh hurry up.” I walk to my bed and sit but then get restless and start walking again. “Josh, thank God you’re here. What did you find out?”
