this has turned to chaotic oh my god lmao

"Liam was fighting this kid, Michael something, and Michael shot him.. From what Zayn has told me, it was just a usual fight over something stupid but it ended badly.. and Niall was there. He was, like, with Gigi? and when all hell broke loose, Niall was covered in Liam's blood on my doorstep." 

"oh my god.. is- Is Niall okay?"

"He wasn't last night.. Not at all. He couldn't speak, could barely breath.. I drove them here and this is where we've been ever since.."

"Is Liam.. Have you heard anything?"

"Yes, he's fine. The bullet didn't hit any organs. Oh-"

Just then, his parents came over to us

"Who's this?" his mom asked

"My boyfriend, Harry.. is Liam okay?"

"He's asking for Niall and Zayn, yeah" his mum nodded and thanked me again for driving them all here. 

Harry walked over to Niall to wake him.

Harry gently shook his shoulder and Niall jumped. Then immediately wrapped his arms around Harry's shoulders and melted into the hug.

"hey, Liam's awake.. he wants to see you" Harry told him softly

"Oh, thank god" Niall got up

Zayn took Niall's hand and lead him down the hall

I sat with Harry where Niall and Zayn had just been..

"It's nice, seeing Liam's friends take such good care of him like we do.."

"Yeah, I'm glad they take care of him"

"I'm gonna kill that boy if the cops don't find him first" Ashton told us

"You can't kill anyone, Ash.. the cops will take care of him"

"He's only 16. He's younger than all of us. He'll get juvie and that's it. If it were the other way around, Liam would be in fucking prison" Ashton growled, "Plus! He almost killed Liam."

"Ash, wait-" Harry tried to stop the boy when he stood but Ashton was gone.. 

"Someone's gotta stop him before he does something he's gonna regret" Harry told me

"I'll tell Zayn. Stay right here" I kissed his lips shortly then ran back to Liam's room

Luckily, Zayn was waiting beside the door in the hallway, letting Niall speak to the boy first

"Z! Hey, mate, Ashton just stormed out. He said he was gonna kill Michael" I told him quietly so no doctors or nurses heard us

"Shit! Okay- uh. fuck, I'll call some of our friends to send looking for him" he cursed as he frantically got his phone out

"He was really serious about it, Zayn.."

"I know.. When Ashton has an idea- good or bad- he goes through with it.. and now he has motive since Michael already hurt Liam.."

"So he'd do it?" I asked, kinda shocked 

"Yeah. Yeah, if we don't stop him first" 

* * *

Zayn came back to the waiting room 15 minutes later. Harry and I stood up.

"I've got friends here to pick me up. He wants you both back there. Watch him, please.. and here's my number, text me if anything happens"

I took the slip of paper and got my phone out to put the number in.

"You too.. If you find him or... yeah.. text me if anything happens" I told him 

He nodded to me and Harry then went to get in his ride outside the hospital.

Harry and I went into the small hospital room and found Niall asleep again. He was curled up in the bed with Liam, on the side without the gunshot wound.

Liam, though, was waiting on us..

"Louis.. thank you so much for taking care of Niall while I was in surgery- and last night when he came to your house" Liam immediately said and held out one hand

I shook his hand and he squeezed tight for a second

"He.. he means so much to me and.. God, I.. I was so scared last night, I thought I was gonna die.." he whispered, his eyes never leaving mine, "I couldn't imagine letting him go. I couldn't- I couldn't stand thinking about how he would react. His tears.. I just.. fuck-"

he started to cry and just shut his eyes

"Hey, brother.. it's fine. You're alright. And Niall cares about you too. I'd never seen him so distraught like he was last night. He was so worried. and when he found out you were okay.. Liam, he's whipped.. and by the looks of it, so are you"

"I am. God, yes, I am. He's my everything.."
