Hailey's POV
I pulled in to the driveway and there were no cars there.

Were they not home?

I pulled put the house key and walked in. I heard sobs coming from the living room.

"Dad?" I asked searching.

I walked in and saw my mom and dad on the same room.

"Mom?" I asked.

She was sobbing, my dad looked at me frowning.

"What's going on?" I asked.

Millions of things were going through my head.

"Your- your sister." My mom got out.

"What about her?" I asked worried.

My dad motioned for me to come over and sit down.

"She was hit." He said hugging me.

"What? Is she okay? Can I see her? Can I talk to her? Where is she?"I asked a million questions.

"Stephanie's. Stephanie's. She's dead. A drunk hit her the left side of her car and she died almost instantly." He told me.

This is a nightmare! Wake up.

I shook my head. I covered my mouth.

I shook my head again, grabbed my keys and drove off.

I drive to Niall's, since this is my home now.

I opened my computer and it was opened on skype. I immediately got a call from Niall.

I didn't want to tell him. He's busy with life and I don't want to stand in the way. Being the good boyfriend he is he would've came here and I don't want him to stol his life. Not for me.

I quickly denied it and I went to my pictures. I clicked on the one that said that sisters and I opened it.

There were tons of recent ones and little kids ones.

I decided to make a collage of it.

I added some of her favorite songs and it was finished. I was pleased with it.

I decided to tweet.

@haileymullins: If we only get one fight.
If we only get one life.
If we only get one breath to lose.
I choose you.

I tweeted and many people know and love the song.

I got another skype call from Niall.

Not wanting to worry him I answered.

"Finally, you answered!" He said relieved.

"Sorry. I uh." I was trying to think of an excuse.

"Is everything okay over there?" He asked.

"Hmm? Oh everything over here is swell. Yeah um swell."

It hurt saying those words. Everything was not swell. Every feeling I ever had is numb. I can't feel anything. I want to cry. I want to smile. I just can't do it.

"Hailey." He said sternly.

"Niall." I mocked.

"Tell me what's going on." He said.

"Niall. I'm fine. I swear." I said as Eleanor sat by him.

"Fine isn't fine. Fine is like saying you're broken. Everyone knows that. Girl logic." Eleanor said.

"Tell me what'd going on." He said.

I look at a picture I hung up on the wall. It was of me and Stephanie. We were acting like we were baddass. I broke down in to tears.

"Hailey?" He asked.

"Hailey. What's wrong baby." Eleanor asked.

"Hey bestie- woah. Hailey. What's wrong?" Louis asked all serious.

"My- she. Oh my god. Stephanie's gone!" I cried even more.

"I'm coming back." Niall said.

"No you're not!" I yelled at him.

"Niall James Horan you better not come back or so help me god I will hurt you. The world doesn't stop for me. You have a life to live." I said.

"You are my world, you are my life." He said.

"Niall if you're going to see anyone go see your family." I said.

"I can see them anytime, but you need me." He said.

"You never know when you can see your family again. They could be gone in a blink of an eye." I told him.

He signed and rubbed his face.

"I can't stay here knowing you're hurting so bad." He said.

"I'll come see you when I can. Yeah?" I said.

"Promise?" He said.

"I promise." I said.

"Okay." He sighed.

"Come on boys! Hey Hailey." Paul said.

I smiled and waved.

"I'll talk to you guys later." I said.

"Okay. I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I said back.

He waved and ended the call.

I sighed.

That's just what I needed. A call from Niall.
