NIALLS POV

Its been five days, five days of sitting by her bed, waiting for her to wake up but she hasn't yet.

Why hasn't she woke up yet? The nurses won't tell me because they apparently have no idea, that is kind of the whole point of being a doctor or nurse, you should know for fuck sake.

"Niall, I think you should go back to the tour bus and get a proper sleep," Sophie says, handing me a coffee.

I've not left the hospital.

Yes I've been brought clean clothes by the others but I've never left her side.

"Niall are you listening?" Sophie asks.

"Yes, but I aren't doing it," I huff, even though I'm exhausted; the hospital chairs aren't very comfortable.

"Ni, you need to get some sleep you look dreadful," Sophie mutters, tidying up my mess of food wrappers and what not.

"Thank you for the vote of confidence Soph," I reply sarcastically, giving her the thumbs up.

"Ok, you know what I mean. Now go, I will call you if there is any news, and I will make sure Jade knows you have been here 24/7 if it makes you feel better," she smiles, pushing me off the chair and in the direction of the door.

"You swear to me you will call me?" I ask as I stop in the doorway.

"Swear," she says, hand on heart.

I nod, skipping through the hallway and getting in the elevator. To be quite honest, I am looking forward to a very long, well deserved shower when I get back.

After texting Harry and Lucy that i'll be at the tour bus soon, as they are looking after Darcy boo, I hop into the car.

From Ldog: Ok. Glad to see your lil ass back home for once haha:)

To Ldog: sorry, I was looking after my girl:)

From Ldog: Suppose its ok then but hurry we've missed you!

To Ldog: I am I am:)

The car screeches to a halt and I jump out, thanking the driver before opening the tour bus door to that lovely homely smell.

"Niall," I hear a shout and Lucy rushes in, crushing me with a hug.

"Missed me?" I smirk, pulling away.

"I've missed my little leprechaun on the bus every day," she grins as Harry strolls in, Darcy giggling in his arms.

"Hello princess," I coo, kissing their baby girl's forehead.

"She's excited to see her uncle Niall," Lucy laughs as Darcy giggles, showing her little smile at me.

"She used to smile at Jade like that," I mumble, looking at my fingers.

"Showers on," Lucy smiles, changing the subject.

"Thanks, i'll be like four hours!" I call jokingly as I go into the bathroom.

CARAS POV

I stumble across Zayn and Sophie in the waiting room, I still haven't told Zayn that I kissed Niall, I just don't know how to do it.

He walks away, coffee in his hand saying he's going to the other waiting room to Liam.

"Soph, I need advice," I whisper.

"Go ahead," she replies, stirring her tea.

"I am going to tell you something and you would have to swear not to tell anyone," I hiss.

"Ok, I wouldn't but anyway, go," she urges, taking a sip.

"The other day....I sort of maybe kissed Niall..." I mumble, feeling my cheeks heat up.

"What? Cara are you insane?" She cries, nearly choking on her beverage.

"I know, it was wrong of me, but it was in the moment I guess. And I can't exactly take it back," I replies, sighing as I get myself a bottle of water.

"And why are you telling me this?" she asks.

"Because I need to tell Zayn, but I don't know how," I groan, taking a seat in the corner with her.

"Take him somewhere private, tell him slowly, but everything must be the truth," she says seriously.

"I know, I wouldn't lie to him," I mutter, feeling the guilt come on.

"I didn't say that. Just go get it over and done with now," she shrugs, standing up.

I nod, getting up with her and following her to the other room where him and Liam are laughing.

"Zayn can I talk to you for a second.....Alone?" I ask and he looks at me confused.

"Sure thing. Lets go into the other room," he says, getting up.

"No, it has to be somewhere private," I insist.

"Well where else?" He questions.

"Go into Jade's room. She's still not awake yet," Liam suggests.

I nod, pulling Zayn's hand into the room.

I sit him down opposite me and shut my eyes before letting the words flow out of mouth.

"I have something to tell you," I whisper.

"Go on," Zayn says.

"The other day, when you left me and Niall in that room, I was comforting him like a good friend but in the moment....I uh....I kissed him," I admit, feeling the guilt strike my stomach giving me butterflies.

"Cara are you fucking serious?" Zayn cries.

"Look, I kissed Niall he did noth-"

"Save it, I aren't in the mood to speak about this now Cara," he sighs, standing from his chair and banging the door behind him as he leaves.

I hold my head in my hands as tears of frustration roll down my cheeks.

"Cara? Is that true?" I hear someone say.

But it's not just someone.

As I look up, it's Jade....
