Something Beautiful

Chapter Nine

DELANIS POV

I was going to see Zayn for the first time since that night. He'd been out for days, I didn't know he'd been hit that hard. Ive been crying since the ambulance drove away. He saved my life that night. I owe him everything. I put on one of his t shirts and a pair of shorts he bought me. I brushed out my hair and applied some ChapStick. I wanted to look a little presentable.

ZAYNS POV

Delani was coming to see me today. Words can not describe how exited I was. Ive been feeling great and I wanted to show her I was fine and it was no big deal, so I managed to get out of the hospital bed and meet her in the lobby. The girls, Jeremy , and Hayden would be there too. I started down the hall to meet her. Butterflies were forming in my stomach it was a crazy feeling. When I got to the waiting room, everyone was there and right when I walked in so did the most amazing girl in the world. All the sudden I didn't feel weak or any pain. She was here about to be in my arms. When I engulfed her in a hug, she started crying. She didn't let go. Did she love me back... Did I finally get her?

"Zayn... I'm so sorry. This shouldn't have happened.." She burst into tears again.

"Delani its fine. I'm Alive and you're safe." I replied

"Zayn you're my best friend!! Ugh. I'm glad youre okay." She smiled now. But she said it. Friends... We were just friends. It still hurt but it was better than nothing. I was happy to have her in my arms right now. Since I could go home now, I decided to walk home with her. I was going to get back to work and get some money. I was going to work on my college courses and graduating. But mostly. I was going to focus on her.

When we got to the boat, Don was so happy so see me and I was happy to see him. I was on bed rest for the next two days and I was exhausted after walking home. Once I got bed I couldn't move. I was sore all over . It wasn't that bad though. I had Delani and the crew come visit me everyday. It gave me a lot of time to think.

HAYDENS POV

I liked Delani, I really did. But I knew Zayn loved her more than I ever could. I had to break up with her somehow. I didn't want to, because she was different than most girls. But I knew it was better. I know shell be happier with him, they look amazing together.
