Last chapter!!There will an Epilogue and then that's it.

--------------------------------

-"Can I lay my head on your chest?"she asks.

-"Yeah,come here."

She gets closer to me,putting her head on my chest while I snuck an arm around her and drew circles on her back.

-"Thanks for not judging me."she says quietly.

-"I would never.Goodnight Ellie."i tell her,placing a kiss on the top of her head.

-"Goodnight Harry."

Harry wakes up suddenly from his agitated sleep.He looks around and then the reality hits him.

Doctors and nurses were passing infront of him.He was sitting on a chair in the waiting room after being in the hospital for four days.

He passes a hand through his hair and he lets out a breath.

Ellie was in critical condition.Her heart stopped beating multiple times and the doctors had to re animate her many times.

After he found her on that bathroom door,he called the ambulance.It was like he was numb.He wasn't feeling anything.Everything felt so...far away.He should have stayed with her instead of leaving her flat.He was going to ask her to marry him...if only she knew.

Ellie was now in a coma.It's been four days and she still hasn't woken up.The doctors say she might not wake up.She had a 15% chance of waking up.The pills she took were Paracetamol.One of the most common in overdose.

And now,Harry felt so alone.Like he hasn't ever felt.What if Ellie dies,who will he have?He pushed everyone away.There was nobody here for him.And that's his fault.

If only the boys were here.

He gets up and makes his way to Ellie's room.There she was,laying in the hospital bed with wires connected to almost every piece of her body.Her face was relaxed.

Harry approaches her bed and takes her hand in his.

-"Hey,Ellie."Harry says,tears flooding his eyes."Please come back.I'll stay,I promise.Forever.I even have the ring."

He stops and the silence fills the room.

He promised himself that he wouldn't hurt Ellie again.And now,she almost killed herself because of him.And she might die.

He needs someone.Any one.Just a shoulder to cry on.

He takes his phone out of his pocket and dials the well known number.

-"Hello?"he hears the voice on the other end.He smiles as the tears flood down his face.

-''It's...It's Harry."He sobs.

-Okay..."He hear the high pitched voice."I'm going to hang up now."

-"No,wait.Please."Harry begs."I...I need you."

-"Yeah?And where were you when I needed you?Not even a text,or a call."

-"I know.I know."Harry sobs."I just...I'm at the hospital and Ellie...Ellie,she might die and I'm all alone and I don't know what to do."

-"Ellie...Ellie is at the hospital?"

-"Yes.She is.She...tried killing herself."Harry says,his voice feeling like strangled.

There was silence on the other end for awhile.

-"I'm coming."is all he hears before the person hangs up.
