I got out of the car and slammed the door shut. 

We just got home from the store and it was definitely... something.

They were very energetic, and I wasn't, so that did not go well together. They honestly looked like little kids in a candy shop. A couple of strangers watched us with surprised expressions.

I would be surprised too if I saw two grown men sitting in a shopping cart.

I walked to the back of the car, and Harry and Liam were already grabbing the bags and placing them inside.

At checkout, I made sure to pack two bags with my food, so I could put them in my cabin. Otherwise, I have to walk over to their cabin every time I want something to eat. They paid for all the food, and let me tell you, it wasn't cheap. I feel kinda guilty, but they insisted.

I grabbed my two bags out of the trunk and started walking to my cabin. The bags were a little heavy, but I could manage.

"Oh Julia, we can do that" Harry said as he walked back to the trunk. "No, it's okay." I answered as I grabbed my keys out of my pocket.

I was wearing loose shorts and a simple t-shirt. I should start dressing better.

I opened my door and placed the bags inside. I walked back to the trunk and grabbed one last bag that was still there and walked to their cabin.

I have no idea where Louis and Niall are.

As I was walking a throbbing pain appeared in my head. It was like a needle was being shoved in my brain.

I placed the bag down and put my hand over my temple. I furrowed my brows to fight the pain, but it wasn't working. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. But then I didn't hear my surroundings anymore and everything went black.

It's like the cliff I was talking about. You finally let go, but you're standing on the platform. You think you're safe, but then, the platform falls. And so do you. You finally go down. You prepared for this, so you should be fine.

It's hot, and cool at the same time. But this time, you're waiting till you hit the ground. The wind is strong and almost feels warm. You're scared.

But are you really though?

You close your eyes, take a deep breath and hope for the best...

Harry's point of view

"Julia!" I said as I caught her just in time.

"Hey hey Jules?" I said as I shook her.

A wave of nausea caused over me because she wasn't waking up.

"Louis help me!" I screamed. "Niall! Li! She's not waking up!" I yelled.

Where are they? I need help. I can't do this on my own. Something is wrong and this is my fault.

I looked at the cabin and Louis came running towards me through the door. When he saw Julia laying in my arms, his eyes widened.

Not much later, both Niall and Liam came through the door as well, with the same reaction as Louis.

"What happened?" Louis asked and I looked at him in loss of words.

"I. I don't know. She just," I started shaking and I felt my eyes starting to water. "She just fell. We need to call Monique!" I was still shaking because I was so worried.

"Where is your phone?" Niall asked in hurry.

I was holding Julia in one hand and grabbed my phone with the other. I gave it to Niall, and he immediately called Monique.
