[Kim]
"I think we need a break Kim, me and you."
I felt my heart drop down to my stomach at his words. I froze in my spot, staring up in disbelief at his eyes, searching for some sign that this was all a horrifying joke. But he just kept a cold steely gaze on me. I opened my mouth trying to will words out of it and closed it again knowing there was no use.
"I know this is sudden, but maybe we rushed things. We just followed our feelings, both of us need to think things through and maybe this doesn't have to be the end, just a small bump that we can overcome."
I desperately grabbed his forearms. "Can't we deal with this together? Whatever this is. There is no we if you break up with me. Talk to me, Harry." I said, growing more frustrated with every word he spoke.
"I don't know if I can think clearly right now. You deserve someone who can."
"What does that mean? Think clearly about what?! Harry you're pissing me off. Tell me what's going on. "
"I...I..I-" He closed his mouth and when I realized he wasn't going to say more, I took another step out of his reach. I could already feel the tears streaking down my cheeks and my hands were shaking violently but he continued to avoid my eyes. I balled them into fists trying to maintain myself.
"Nothing is going on Kim! I just- I just think we need a break," Harry's cold, hard gaze strayed from my tear filled ones.
I took a shattering breath, "Is this what you want, Styles?" I never called him that after knowing he found it annoying, his eyes went back to mine and slowly, he nodded.
"Alright then," more tears slid down my face but I quickly wiped them away. I saw Harry's hand twitch towards me but I thought nothing of it. I faked a smile, "I guess I'll see you whenever then. Text me when you want to sort things out. "
Harry's eyes were wide and his stare was mesmerizing. I quickly turned away and ran out of the room. I heard Harry call my name but I kept running secretly hoping he'd chase after me. If he did, I would forget everything and fall into his arms but he didn't which was like another stab to my heart. A door was open so I quickly dodged into the room and closed it behind me, falling against it.
"Kim?"
"Hey Zayn," I whispered and then burst into tears.

[Erynn]
Niall went to retrieve the doctor. I tightly shut my eyes closed trying to block out the blinding lights that I could still see through my lids. I groaned, my body was aching all over.
"Erynn? Are you okay?" I felt something warm grab onto my sweaty palm. I slowly opened my eyes and groaned again, "Turn off the lights...it hurts."
I thought for a second trying to make sense of what was going on around me.
"Emma! Where is she?" I shot up, instantly feeling pain spark through my body and the room spun around me.
The lights dimmed and an unfimiliar voice spoke up. "Don't worry about her sweetheart she's safe. How are you feeling?"
"Terrible..." I muttered.
"Alright, we'll give you some more meds for the pain. Now, can you please tell me what happened? In your point of view," the doctor smiled, her teeth showing.
I closed my eyes trying to recall everything, "Niall dropped me off home and he decided to walk me up to my house and we heard screaming so I quickly ran in and I saw my sister in a corner, my dad holding a broken beer bottle, ready to hit her. I ran to her and he struck me instead. A few minutes later I blacked out from the pain and most likely from loosing blood. Thats all I remember..." Niall squeezed my hand and I squeezed back, opening my eyes again. Why the hell did that feel like it took so much effort?
