You Know I'll Be Your Life (1D)

Chapter 28: TWO DAYS!!!!!

JAMIE’S POV

GETTING HOME AFTER THE HOSPITAL

MARCH 15TH, 2013

12:30 in the afternoon

The boys still weren’t letting me walk, so Zayn carried me in, walking into the living room and placing me on the couch. Samson, already getting big at his three months old, placed his front paws on my knees and nudged at my hands, which were sitting in my lap.

“Hi bubba! Come here!” I said. He hopped up on my lap, curling up in a ball and looking up at me with, well, puppy eyes. I rubbed his ears and he soon closed his eyes. Just after, Louis came in and looked at us before coming over and sitting next to me.

“Why didn’t you tell me that your stomach hurt, for the past two days?” he asked, and I could tell he was hurt that I had kept stuff from him.

“You’ve just been really busy lately, travelling and doing concerts, I didn’t want to worry you, and I woke up this morning, planning to tell you, and then you weren’t here, and then Harry was and then I don’t know. I just remember my stomach hurting really badly and my head hurt and nothing seemed okay,” I tell him honestly, rushing out the last part of my long, probably run-on, sentence.

“TWO DAYS! YOU WENT TO THE HOSPITAL! COULDN’T YOU HAVE TOLD ME EARLIER? WHY DID YOU WAIT TWO DAYS? TELL ME!” Louis screamed. This scared me because he had never yelled, as long as I had known him, at anyone. I cowered back into the couch, suddenly very, very afraid of the man sitting in front of me.

“I d-didn’t want to worry you, I was s-sure it was just the stomach flu or something, I-I didn’t know,” I trail off at the end, the anger in Louis’s face literally sending me into shock. Why was he angry? I didn’t mean to cause him any worry, but now it seems that I haven’t, just caused him anger and pain.

The boys must have heard Louis screaming and ran in, looking tense and dangerous. Well, those were some weird words to describe them, but it fit with how they looked right now. Harry was in front, glaring at Louis as he had killed a puppy. Liam was to his right, also glaring at Louis, but glancing at me with a worried expression in his eyes every few seconds. Zayn and Niall were to Harry’s left, they both had arched their backs forward, in a threatening position, Zayn looking ready to hurt someone and Niall pretty much just mimicking him.

“IS ANYONE GOING TO SAY ANYTHING? SHE KEPT SECRETS FROM US AND ENDED UP IN THE HOSPITAL!” Louis screamed, this time it was directed to his band members. They looked pretty scared, too, and I wondered if they had ever experienced Louis like this.

“Jamie, why didn’t you tell us? Louis, I’m sure she has a reasonable explanation, just listen to her,” Liam coaxed.

“Well, with all the travelling you guys are doing lately, you’re almost doing a show every night; I didn’t want you to worry. You have enough on your plate,” Niall interrupted me.

“I never have enough on my plate, and that can be taken whatever way you want to,” he states.

I almost laugh at that but decide not to and continue my sentence. “And you didn’t need, what I thought, was just the stomach flu added to that.”
