Nothing is ever impossible (Olly Murs and One Direction)

3. The Phone Call

Jess’s POV

I rolled over…

THUMP!

“Ouch” I said to myself. Why the hell was I on the floor? I opened my eyes, but they shut almost immediately as there was a piercing, shining bright light coming from somewhere. I rubbed my eyes and opened them slowly. I looked around… where was I? There were two people on a big chair, another one on another sofa, and someone in a chair over in the corner… Oh yeah! I remember… Niall and the boy’s house. I must’ve fallen asleep last night. I looked over at my watch 9:27am.

“Babe?” I heard a sleepy Irish accent say from behind me.

“Yes?” I said turning around and getting back under the blanket.

“You okay?” he asked stretching out and yawning.

“Yes, course babe.” I replied turning over to face him, looking into those deep green gorgeous eyes.

“Good, what’s the time, d’you know?” he asked me looking straight back at me.

“Yeah, its almost half nine.” I smiled

“Okay good, do you know who else is up?” he asked me

“Ermm… nope, I’ve only just woken up myself, well rolled off the sofa.” I admitted

“Aww, you okay?” he asked putting his arm around me pulling me closer.

“Well, I am now.” I said snuggling into him.

“Good!” he replied, lifting up my head and kissing me on the lips. I got lost in the moment. When we pulled away, I snuggled back down into his chest, and we just chilled for a bit.

About 5 minutes later, I could here movement from upstairs, it was either Harry, Rosie or Olly, as everyone else was down here.

“Wonder who that is?” Niall asked.

“Dunno, but cba to go find out.” I replied.

“Yeah me too… want a drink?” he offered getting up from he sofa.

“Umm… Tea please… milky one su-“

“Milky one sugar” he replied “don’t worry babe I know, I have been making them for eight months” he smiled that gorgeous smile. I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, it was ploddy, so I guessed it was Harry; 20 seconds later this pack of curly hair poked through the door. I was right.

“Morning guys.” He said sleepily.

“Morning Haz” I said “Niall’s in the kitchen making drinks if you want one.”

“Cheers, Jess… You seen Olly and Rosie?” he asked me.

“No why?” I replied

“Oh, just wondering, they’re not in Rosie’s room that’s all.” He answered. “They must’ve gone out for a jog again.” He said answering his own question. And just like that the door opened.

“Wooo, that was tiresome” I heard Olly say.

‘Lol that’s what she said’ I though to myself. Following that, two sweaty faces appeared through the door (by this time everyone had woken up).

“Sup guys, how we all doing?” Olly said to everyone.

“Urgh…” Zayn moaned.

“Y’alright guys?” Niall asked from the kitchen door.

“Oh hey Niall.” Rosie and Olly said together.

“How are you this morning bro?” Rosie said taking Harry in for a hug.

“Better thanks, meeting Freya in a couple of hours, looking forward to it.”

“Good.” Rosie replied

“Aww little Haz’s is growing up!” Olly cooed rubbing his hair.

“Piss off Olly,” Harry joked, fixing his hair.

“Harry!” Rosie said sternly.

“Sorry…MUM” Harry shouted.

“Oi, you” Rosie replied.

“So you ready to meet Freya?” Olly asked changing the subject quickly.

“Yeah, I guess so.” He replied. “Anyways, gotta go and get changed inabit guys.” And Harry disappeared upstairs. Olly turned to Rosie and said something, but I couldn’t hear, they turned round and disappeared upstairs too.

“Ooh I wonder what they’re getting up to.” Zayn winked.

“ I heard that!” Rosie shouted from upstairs.

“What’s the time?” Eleanor asked, unlocking herself from Louis’s grip. I looked over at the clock on our mantle piece.

“10:12” I replied.

“Cheers Jess.”

“Comin’ through, Tea anyone?” Niall said carrying a tray.

“Ooh yes please.” Zayn, Louis and Liam said waking up.

“So what are people’s plans today?” Liam said making conversation

“Um… well I think me n Ell are going into town to do some Christmas shopping, how about you?” Louis replied

“Oh I don’t know, probs ring Simon to find out if there’s any fanmail, what about you two?” Liam asked turning to me. I looked over to Niall.

“Oh probably join Louis and Eleanor for some shopping, must admit I need to start it as it’s Christmas in like a week.” I rambled.

“I might join you and Simon if that’s alright?” Zayn butted in. I got up leaving the boys to their conversation, I walked into the kitchen. My phone rang.

“Hello, who is this?” I asked no recognising the caller ID.

“Hello, is this Miss. J. Carroll?” they asked.

“It could be, who’s speaking please?” I said.

“It’s the police.” They replied. I sat down.

“O-o-okay.” I stuttered

“Please can you get down to Greenwich hospital as soon as possible, its your father.” The line went dead, the phone dropped from my hand, and hit the table with a bang!

“Jess, are you alright?” Niall’s voice came from the door.

“I-I-It-It’s my dad… he’s in h-hospital.” I said getting teary eyed. I stood up, and almost fell over.

“Woaaahhh.” Niall said coming o my aid. “Stay here, I’ll go and tell the others and I’ll get Simon to call us a cab or something. He bent down and hugged me, it’s gonna be alright babe, I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about.” Niall said into my hair, he got up and disappeared into the living room. I knew what it would be; Heart problems. I just hope to God that it wasn’t as bad as it was before. Two minutes later came back in, he was on the phone.

“Okay, 10 minutes?… Okay, thanks Simon, cheers mate… bye, bye.” Niall put the phone down.

“That was Simon, he’s got us a cab, it’ll be here in 10.” He said.

“Cheers babe.” I said giving him a hug.

“Don’t worry, it’ll be okay… I Promise.” He said looking into my eyes.

“I’m just gonna go and get ready upstairs.” I said. I kissed Niall on the cheek and made my way up to our room. Olly and Rosie were in Rosie’s room singing loudly. Harry was in his room with the Radio on, getting ready to go and meet Freya. I threw on my skinny jeans, Ralph Lauren polo top and my favourite grey hoodie (Niall’s old one) I put on my UGG boots, and my hat and scarf, I grabbed my coat and bag and made my way downstairs, the car was here.

“Bye guys, see you later.” I shouted, no response, they had probably all fallen asleep. Niall shut the door behind us, he grabbed my hand and we got into the car. I really hoped everything was gonna be okay.
