They brought us back into the cell about an hour ago. Niall is still unconscious and I'm sitting next to him with his head in my lap running my fingers running through his hair. I try to focus on his face instead of thinking about what I just witnessed. The murder of a son, and husband, a friend, a father.

I didn't know him that long but for the short amount of time that I did know him, he was always kind to me. He made Niall happy, he was always the one to brighten the mood.

I missed him already. And some part of me never wanted Niall to wake up, because when Niall wakes up the memories will come back like a slap in the face and he wont be Niall anymore.

I felt him stirring and his eyes fluttered open. A look of confusion etched upon his face.

"What happened?" He asks groggily.

I stay silent. Does he really not remember? How Josh's life was taken do easily with a twitch of a finger.

"Harry," apprehension takes over his face as he sits up slowly to look me in the eye. "What. Happened?" He speaks with more force and I don't know if I can tell him.

He looks around, probably noticing that Josh is missing. He looks back at me with a broken look on his face. Like he already knows.

"Harry, please."

I look away, not able to look him in the eye when I break his heart.

"Josh is- Josh- Josh is gone Niall."

I look at the floor waiting for his reaction.

"N-No. He's n-not. He cant be."

"Niall-" I look over and try to comfort him, putting my arm out to reach him but he just pushes it away.

"Where is he Harry?"

"He's gone. They killed him."

"YOU'RE LYING! TELL ME WHERE HE IS!" He shouts and I flinch back. I know he wont hurt me. He's just upset.

"Niall," I speak in a soothing tone, "He's dead. They shot him. You saw it... I saw it."

"Why didn't I do anything?" His voice cracks, begging me for an answer.

I scoot closer to him and wrap my arms around his shoulders, his head on my chest. "You tried Ni. Oh you tried but it was no use. They hit you in the head and you grew unconscious."

Everything is silent until he says very quietly, "why didn't you do anything." I almost didn't hear him.

"What?" I ask confused.

He pushes me away and repeats much louder, "Why didn't you do anything? I was knocked out, but you weren't. You could have done something. Tried to save him."

"Ni," I say in disbelief, "There was nothing I could have done. He was shot in the head. He was already dead. Even if I had tried, they would have probably hurt me too."

"But did you try!?" He is yelling at me, tears streaming down his face.

"Niall I-"

"Get away from me. Don't touch me. He was always nice to you and you just let him die." He spits at me. His face contorted with disgust, and I feel my heart clench.

I reach out for him, pleadingly, "Niall-"

"I SAID DON'T TOUCH ME!" He yells making me flinch again. And then much quieter he says, "I wish it were you instead." He turns to face the wall, leaving me sitting there shocked.

A/N; Holy muddafawkinsheit! Okay then. I feel sad and happy and idk.

Sorry it was so short, but a new update will be up soon.

Live life, be happy!
