Our Fault

Noah wakes up with Jenna at her bedside. Jenna is thrilled to hear that the baby is Nick’s, but Noah doesn’t want him to know. Nick made it clear that he doesn’t want to be with her, and Noah doesn’t feel ready to be a mother. 

The doctors put Noah on bed rest until the hematoma goes away. Jenna takes her back to her house and over the following days, Noah stays in the guest room. She lies in bed, obsessing over what to do. She and Jenna don’t tell Lion about the baby, but Jenna keeps urging Noah to tell Nick. Noah isn’t sure. 

Two weeks later, Jenna accompanies Noah to her doctor’s appointment. The baby is healthy, but Noah doesn’t want to learn the sex without Nick. The hematoma is almost gone, but the doctor wants Noah to spend two more weeks in bed. On the way home, Jenna begs Noah to tell Lion and her parents what’s going on, but Noah doesn’t want Nick to find out. Finally, Jenna reveals that she and Lion have been keeping Nick updated on Noah’s life since the breakup. Noah is annoyed but decides to tell Nick about the baby if he comes to Lion’s birthday party next week.

Nick declines Jenna’s invitation to Lion’s party. He’s working on moving back to LA and doesn’t have time to leave the city beforehand. Then Lion calls and reveals that something is wrong with Noah. 

Nick gets the first flight back to LA, arriving on the day of the party. He’s shocked to see a pale Noah wrapped in a blanket on the couch. He carries her to the guest room, where she almost tells him about the baby. However, Sophia enters, interrupting the moment.

Noah starts screaming at Sophia. She throws a pillow at her and almost throws a lamp, but Nick stops her. Jenna races in and demands everyone leave. Noah panics that she’s losing the pregnancy because of the stress, but it is okay. Alone afterward, she texts Nick that she’s pregnant. 

The next day, Noah demands Jenna take her out for ice cream. On the way, Jenna notices all of Noah’s missed calls and texts from Nick. She insists that Noah explain what’s happening. Instead, Noah texts Nick that the baby is his. When they get home, Nick is waiting outside. He takes Noah for a drive, and she explains what’s happening. He insists he’s coming back to LA, and Noah is moving in with him. Noah protests, tired of him controlling her.

Noah and Nick collect her things from Jenna’s and drive to his house. At his place, Noah gets upset imagining staying where Sophia has stayed. Nick books a hotel room and drives her there instead. At the hotel, they get into an argument about the pregnancy. Noah insists that she didn’t trick him and didn’t know she could have children. She may have missed a birth control pill but isn’t sure. She reminds him that he doesn’t have to be involved. Nick assures her that they are not getting back together, but he wants shared custody.

Nick takes a long drive. He stops for a drink and mulls over his and Noah’s relationship. Then Michael appears, and the two men get into a fight.

Noah takes a car to her apartment, relieved to be alone. She sits by herself, talking to the baby and thinking about her situation. Finally, she texts Nick to leave her alone. 

Nick shows up the next morning. He apologizes for what he said and invites her back to the hotel. She gives in. While Nick goes to work, Noah stays up reading Wuthering Heights.

Nick goes to see Sophia, who has been calling repeatedly since Lion’s party. Nick breaks up with her, insisting it’s better to end things before she falls in love with him. Back at his and Noah’s hotel, Nick reads a passage from Wuthering Heights that Noah underlined.

Noah wakes up from a nightmare where she gave birth to a stillborn baby. Nick wakes up and comforts her. She explains how she discovered the pregnancy and what the doctor said about the hematoma. Nick softens, stroking her hair until she falls back to sleep. 

The next morning, Steve interrupts Nick and Noah’s breakfast to tell Nick about negative LRB publicity. Afterward, Noah demands to know why Nick’s face is bruised. He reveals the truth and forbids Noah to see Michael.

Noah spends two fitful days at home. Nick returns home late one night to discover she is still awake. They kiss but Nick doesn’t want to go any further. 

The next day, Nick accompanies Noah to her ultrasound appointment. They learn that the baby is a boy, and the hematoma is nearly gone. The doctor says Noah can go about her life as usual, but Nick wants her to keep resting. They get into an argument afterward because Noah is tired of Nick controlling her. Nick insists he wants to take care of her and the baby, revealing that he left Sophia. Noah softens. They hug and agree to start over.

Noah moves into Nick’s apartment. Nick reflects on their relationship and his complicated feelings for her. Later, they go to a club with Jenna and Lion to celebrate. Nick notices Noah looks tired. When they leave, Noah says she has to grow up now that she’s a mom. She’s worried about Nick being there for her, but he swears to make her and the baby happy. He kisses her, wishing they could have sex but reminding himself to take it slow.
