Recap of previous chapter: Sam just sucked Harry's dick ;) (lol didn't feel like finding a better way to phrase that...)

Samantha POV:
I lie on the bed, staring up at the ceiling fan with a smile on my face as I hum to myself. Harry has just gone into my bathroom to take a quick shower, so I have a few minutes to collect myself after what just happened.
I can’t believe I just did that. I’m not exactly shy about my body, but I surprised myself with my confidence just a few minutes ago. Maybe my pregnancy hormones are really kicking in.
I find myself slowly rubbing circles into my stomach, as I marvel over the little spark of life growing inside of me. Stretching, I force myself to sit up, and ease myself off of the bed. The needs of my bladder have not been forgotten, despite my ‘activities’ with Harry.
I groan. He’s taking way too long in the shower, and I can’t wait any longer. I step over to the bathroom door, and I’m about to knock, when I hear Harry’s low voice coming from the inside over the drone of the running water.
“I miss the sound of your voice
And I miss the rush of your skin
And I miss the still of the silence
As you breathe out and I breathe in…”
My insides melt. He’s singing one of my all-time favorite songs, and his voice is like that of an angel. Ugh, now I don’t want to interrupt his singing.
“If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
I'd make you believe
I'd make you forget…” He softly sings the next verse. I can’t hold myself back as he goes in for the chorus. I ease myself into the room, smiling at the sight of his backside through the blurred glass of the shower door. He hasn’t noticed me yet. He starts singing the next verse, and I hesitate, admiring his voice for a few more moments.
“So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips”
I take a deep breath and join him in his song, singing softly but loud enough to be heard above the hum of the water.
“Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love”
Harry’s reaction is so funny. He stops singing, and whips his head around, staring at me incredulously. I decide to keep going, so I sing the next part out slowly, staring into his eyes as I step up to the shower, placing my hands on the glass which separates us;
“So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love”
I finish, and Harry is still staring at me, not moving. Then the water shuts off, and he’s out of the shower in seconds, standing next to me in all his glory. I guess I’m gonna have to get used to that…
“Why didn’t you tell me?!” He demands, his eyes wide as he stands over me.
“Tell you what?” I ask, my body alert due to his closeness as I try to ignore his nakedness.
“You can sing Sam.” He says in awe, taking both of my hands in his. “And I’m not just saying that, you can really bloody sing!” He murmurs into my hair as he plants a kiss on the top of my head, pulling my body up against his.
Harry POV:
Jesus Christ, how else is this girl going to blow me away? She’s perfect in every way, and it’s driving me insane. I pull away to stare into her eyes, and she averts her gaze, a light blush coloring her freckled cheeks.
Gently I reach down, turning her chin so she is looking up at me. I can’t stop the smile that spreads across my lips as I take in her beautiful face. I can tell she’s embarrassed because I’m naked, (I will never understand this about girls – she’s had me inside of her, and yet she can’t even bring herself to look at me naked?!) so I decide to tease her, pressing my hips up against hers, and wiggling my eyebrows. She finally gives in, letting out a small laugh before murmuring an answer.
“I used to sing to the children in the orphanage,” she shrugs. I grin, flashing my dimples as I lean in to plant another kiss on her forehead.
“You amaze me” I state simply before turning and getting back into the shower. After I’m once again under the steaming water, I turn and get her attention by tapping on the glass.
“Care to join?” I ask with a smirk on my face. I know she’s going to say no, but I can’t help myself from teasing – her reactions are too cute.
Her stern look in response is all it takes to have me shaking with laughter as I lather my body in soap.
After Sam and I are ready for the day we head out into the kitchen hand in hand. I freeze once I see all the people in the room. Our head media trainer Geoff, Paul, and all of the boys are here. I guess the other girls went out or home or something. Everyone looks up as we walk in, and I can tell something isn’t right.
“What’s going on?” I demand, trying to read Paul’s face. He sighs, but holds up a hand to calm me down.
“Nothing serious, it’s just another media slip up that we have to deal with.” He says in a tired voice. Slightly relieved, I give a tight smile, and greet Geoff before introducing him to Sam. Geoff is fun and laid back, in his late twenties, so we all get along pretty well. After our greetings are made, we both take seats at the breakfast bar, and it’s time to get down to business.
“So, what is it?” I question, looking around at the grim expressions on Jeff and Paul’s faces. I make eye contact with Zayn and he shrugs. The guys have no idea what’s going on either.
Geoff wastes no time getting into it. He pulls out his laptop, quickly opening up tabs and asking us to gather around. He has some news article up, and the headline reads “Is Niall Falling for the girl he saved?” I share a confused glance with Niall, before turning my attention back to the screen.
“Check this out,” says Geoff before clicking on the video imbedded in the article. We don’t take the time to read it – Geoff doesn’t waste his time with stuff like that which is another reason why he’s so much better than our past media trainers.
A short video of a news reporter comes up on the screen, the headline behind her reads “Niall in love?” She opens her mouth, and in the typical falsely-cheery news reporter voice goes on to speculate about Niall and Sam’s ‘budding romance’.
“...Samantha Jevrin, only weeks after being brutally raped at the One Direction Midnight Memories concert, seems to be making reappearance in the media spotlight after being caught by our cameras out in public with band member Niall Horan.” A picture from a few weeks ago of Niall carrying Sam from the car into the police station appears on the screen.
“Mr. Horan was spotted carrying his possible new lover out of their car just days before the band made public announcements explaining the events of the night of their last concert at which Samantha was molested.” She states.
“And if that isn’t enough, the two of them were caught sharing a loving embrace at the local hospital just yesterday.” Another picture appears on the screen of Niall giving Sam a big hug inside the hospital, Sam looking tired and shaken. That must have been while Jennie and I were talking to the people at the front desk.
"The cause for their hospital visit is yet to be disclosed, but I’d say that all “Niall girls” may want to find themselves a new crush; it looks like their man is taken.” She ends with a wide smile, and the video cuts out.
I look over at Niall who is standing to my right, and give him a grateful nod. We’ve been in the business long enough by now to know not to believe anything the media says, and I’m just glad that he’s been such a good friend to Sam. He tilts his head down, signaling for me to avert my attention towards Sam.
She’s staring at the screen with a weird, scared look on her face. I give her shoulders a squeeze.
“What’s wrong?” I murmur, and she gives me an ‘are you kidding me’ look. I smile, and lean down, my lips hovering over her ear as I comfort her in a low voice. “Hey, we all know the media will make anything up just for a good story, no one blames you for anything okay?”
“But what about your fans? They’re gonna hate me!” She groans, and this time Geoff butts in.
“Don’t worry about it Sam, we will clear everything up, but that’s what we need to have a little chat about now.” He says, standing up and motioning for us to follow him into the living room. We make ourselves comfortable on the couches before he speaks again.
“Alright, so right now the media knows very little about Samantha’s condition and her relationship with the five of you, so they’re going to make things up just to get an audience.” He states, making eye contact with everyone as he speaks. “Our goal is to change that. In order for her to be accepted by your fans, they need to be able to connect with her. Make a twitter, Instagram, Facebook… do whatever you have to do to help them learn more about you.” He says, directing the last part at Sam who nods reluctantly.
“Once they get to know you, the plan is to release the ‘tragic’ news about your pregnancy. The media will eat that shit up like it’s candy. This is all going to happen within a couple of days, so it might be a little overwhelming, but it’s best for everyone if we go through with this plan, so bear with me.”
“What about Harry and Sam?” Questions Zayn.
“Ah yes, Sam, I’m going to need you to first try and trump the rumors about you and Niall. The boys should be able to help you with that and with setting up your social media sites. It won’t hurt to post pictures of you and Harry together, but don’t make any official announcements just yet. I’ve planned it out with my team, and we’re going to make a video which will be released to the press in a few days, explaining everything that has happened, and hopefully we can just get a shot of Harry alone speaking about his feelings for you.” He says, glancing at me for assurance. He knows better than I do when it comes to this stuff, so I give him a nod, and he continues;
“I think it’s best to be straightforward with this case. It’s a huge new development in all of your lives, and your fans deserve to know about it. Also if we’re straightforward, there will be less opportunity for rumors and false information getting around.” He finishes professionally.
“Amen!” jokes Louis, directing a mock bow in Geoff’s direction. We all laugh, and I allow myself to relax. Everything will work out, I trust Geoff, and for now there’s no point worrying.
I grasp Sam's hand in mine and grin down at her. I get to help her make an online profile... Let the fun begin!

Notes
I don't even know where to begin.... I want to apologize for not updating in so long, and I just want to tell you why.
Earlier this month one of my best friends was diagnosed with bone cancer, with tumors in her leg. The doctors said that her leg had to be removed as soon as possible or else the cancer would be fatal. Last week her leg was amputated, and she has been having a really hard time dealing with the pain and the stress of recovery. I hope that you all understand that being there for her does come before my writing, so unfortunately I really haven't had much time to update.
Anyways, I hope you liked it! please please please COMMENT!

oh and the song was Come on, Get Higher By Matt Nathanson - one of my favorites :)
