Band Mixers

CHAPTER 13

Niall's POV

I think Steph just broke me, I feel like she just ripped out my heart and threw it down. I don't know who he is but I'm going to find out, she should have known I was going to come back. I thought she loved me not some guy she probably doesn't even know.

I suppose it was partially my fault for leaving I mean if I didn't leave she wouldn't be going on a date with some douche bag. But then again she should have told me what her condition was.

It's now Saturday and well Stephane is back walking around campus the only difference is she carries this bag with tubes that sit under her nose. I suppose she is probably in the starting stages or something.

Steph's POV

Have you ever felt so alone but be completely surrounded by people, well that's what I feel like, everyone is here and I'm so not alone but inside I feel like no one is actually listening to me like they are doing what they think I want.

After Niall left all my monitors started going off and all I saw was darkness. I heard people crying and screaming, I felt Tyler's grip tighten as someone pulled him away. After that nothing. Everything was gone, my heart stopped.

Caitlyn's POV

She's dead. Her heart literally stopped. I broke down in tears and dropped to the floor I felt someone pick me up but I couldn't look up. after a while I was sitting on someone's lap I finally dried the tears and saw that it was Harry. I pushed my face into his chest and felt a tear drop on my head. He was crying too. I hugged him and started crying again.

"She's gone" I tried to say
"I know, I'm sorry" a crackled voice said above me
"What about her mom" I said "I should call her and let her know"
"Actually I already did, uh Zayn went to get her" he replied.
I'd forgotten that Zayn had dropped out of college.
"Okay thanks" I replied through the continuous flow of tears.

After an hour of waiting the doctor came in, by then Stephane's mother had arrived along with some of her friends and Dylan.

"How is she?" I started
"Uh well her heart it um...she...uh..she may not wake up I'm sorry" he replied as the sudden flow of tears came rushing back.
"Can we at least see her?" Her mother, Joy, asked.
"I'm sorry but she is still unstable and there are too many cords and machines for all of you to go in" he said looking mainly at Joy "but I can allow you one at a time" he quickly finished and took Joy into her room.

The waiting room was packed with all of Stephane's friends from back home and since she hasn't seen her father in years and she doesn't have any other family it's basically all friends and cousins that live nearby. Surprisingly Niall hasn't shown up yet.

"Hey Harry did you text Niall?" I asked looking around the room
"Uhh yeah he said he didn't want to come something about a Tyler guy and flowers or something" he said confused
"Oh okay that's fine then" I walked over to the door where I saw her mother crying and holding her hand.
"Hey are you okay?" I asked
"Well I haven't seen my baby in months and when I do it's because she's in a hospital with a small chance of ever waking up" she struggled to get the words out
"I'm so sorry if I knew she wouldn't be here"
"It's fine her father couldn't even make it because he has his own family to take care of and they are all more important than Stephane"

I sat with her for hours and still Steph never woke up, I guess waiting is our best option.
