After several weeks of hard work, we are finally getting a short break from the tour. Louis texted me that we should all meet up at a park close by and play some football (soccer).
I get dressed in a tshirt, shorts and my sneakers. On the way out I grab my keys, phone and sweatshirt and I'm off.
When I get to the park Harry and Louis are already there passing the ball and Liam arrives just seconds after me.
Soon we split up into teams: Lilo against Narry. We are halfway through the game and the score is 2-1, Lilo winning.
I hear Harry yell and point me to where to go. I start running there but not looking where I was going. Turns out Louis was running there too in an attempt to steal the ball.
Our legs got tangled as we ran into each other. Louis landed fine but my foot got stuck in-between his legs as I fell and I felt excruciating pain in my ankle.
Louis immediately apologizes and the other two boys run over as I yell in pain.
Liam, clearly worried, asks,"Mate, what's wrong?"
"My ankle, I think it's broken."
"Let me have a look," Louis says, guilt written all over his face. I'll make sure to reassure him that it's not his fault later, but right now I'm in too much pain.
As Louis touches my ankle I wince and grunt in pain. Harry rubs my back comfortingly.
"It's alright, mate. Hang in there." Harry tells me.
"Yeah, it's definitely broken, let's take him to the emergency room."Louis informs us.
Harry and Liam get on either side of me with one of their arms under my armpits and they lift me up.
I hiss as my ankle is jostled and Liam whispers,"sorry, sorry, sorry!"
They help me to the car and sit me down in the middle with my head in Harry's lap and my leg across Liam's as Louis is driving.
I'm in so much pain, I didn't think just a broken ankle would hurt this bad! I could tell Liam and Harry were trying to help me a little bit no matter what they did nothing would help. I appreciated them trying though.
Harry was massaging my scalp and whispering encouraging words in my ear as Liam did his best to keep my ankle still as Louis drove.
The pain became so bad that a tear escaped my eye. I'm not a baby! It was one of those uncontrollable tears!
"Hold on, Niall, we're five seconds (of summer;)) away. How bad does it hurt on a scale from 1-10" Harry asked.
"9"I breathed out.
Once again Liam and Harry helped me into the emergency room, which was surprisingly and fortunately not as packed as I had expected.
Within 5 minutes I filled out the papers I was given and was taken to a cubical.
A nurse came in shortly after I was in a hospital gown.
"Hello boys, I'm Nurse Jamie. What seems to be the problem, Mr...Horan." She said as she looked at my papers.
"I think I broke my right ankle while playing football" I informed her.
"Alright, I'm going to get the X-ray ready and we will take a look. Okay?"
"Okay." I answered.
"Great just give me a moment and I'll be right back, I have another patient that I need to check. I'm going to send in Nurse James to help temporarily secure your ankle so you're more comfortable until I get back. " she said, then she exited.
"You okay?" Louis asked.
"Been better but I'm fine." I replied, while a managed a small smile.
"Im really sorry, I-"Louis was cut off by who I am assuming is Nurse James.
"Sorry to interrupt but I'm just going to wrap up your ankle." He said.
"It's fine. Go ahead." I replied.
He wrapped my ankle in some gauze, which was VERY painful but afterwards I felt a little less pain which is good.
I turned to Louis once he left,"You don't need to be sorry Louis, I'm fine. It was an accident and mostly my fault cause I wasn't looking where I was going. Now come here and give me a hug and we'll be good."
He sighed, clearly annoyed with me, but a smile crept onto his face and he walked towards me and bent down to give me a hug.
"It's fine, Louis. I don't want you to feel so guilty over something as stupid as this." I reassured him.
"Niall, you are amazing." He said, breaking up our hug. "I know your in a lot of pain yet you continue to care about everyone but yourself. You're crazy." Louis joked.
Right as I was about to reply, Nurse Jamie walked in with a machine, I am assuming it is the X-ray.
