Chapter 6

Zayn’s POV

I thought of this as a sign. A sign to tell Bella exactly how I felt. I rushed into the room and she was laying there crying to the doctor about the pain. “Zayn?” she asked when she saw me.

“Hey Bella” I smiled slightly and wiped the tears from my eyes. She smiled up at me, although she was in pain. “You scared us all to death” I sat in a chair next to her bed.

“I didn’t even see him come up to me, I saw a shadow so I turned around. He had on a white shirt and jeans, covered in paint. He made me give him everything I had with me. It wasn’t much, just a few dollars and a button that fell off my shirt” her eyes showed fear mixed with relief and a little pain.

“I’m so glad you’re okay, I was so worried! Liam got a call From Kacey saying you got stabbed. I was scared I’d never be able to tell you how I feel about you”

“How do you feel about me, Zayn?” Bella asked, a certain glint in her brown eyes.

“I’m falling in love with you, Bella. Seeing you with your friends, not giving a shit what other people think. I just have this feeling, that you’re something I’ve been looking for all my life” I spoke from the heart, something the boys made fun of me for.

“You’re a deep person, Zayn. I’m falling for you too” she took in a breath, only to cough viciously afterwards.

“Sir, we’re going to have to ask you to leave. We need to do a few more tests and make sure she’s not going to need any surgeries or anything” the doctor said. I stood up quickly.

“Don’t leave” she muttered quietly.

“I have too, you’re going to be alright, I promise” I kissed her forehead and walked out of the room. I walked back to the others, with tears falling down my cheeks.

“Is she alright?”

“Is she dead?”

“Lillie! She’s not dead! She’s not gonna die! She can’t die!” Kacey cried.

“She was alive when I went in there but as I was leaving she went into a coughing attack and they think she might not make it” I stood there just letting the tears fall. Kacey left the comfort of Liam’s arms and hugged me tightly.

“She’ll be alright, she’s a fighter” she mumbled into my ear as I cried onto her shoulder.

“Did you tell her how you felt?” Louis asked. I went and sat down on Niall’s lap and curled up on him.

“I told her I loved her and she said she loved me too” I cried into Niall’s chest.

“There’s too much crying and sadness going on, so I’m gonna go get us all some coffee” Louis stood up and started walking away. Harry got up and followed him. I stayed huddled into Niall. He was rubbing my arms softly as he hummed quietly in my ear.

Bella’s POV

I went into a horrible coughing fit, I was coughing up blood again. The doctors and nurses all rushed around me messing with the machines. I honestly just wanted to die. “She’s still losing a lot of blood, we need to get her stabilized” I heard one of the doctors say. I moaned in pain as I felt something sharp go into my stomach, near the spot where I had been stabbed. I eventually fell into a deep sleep.

“Aren’t you a cute little thing? I bet you have all kinds of neat stuff in those pockets. How about you empty them and hand everything over and I let you go alive” his voice rang through my mind. I was terrified. I never really got scared at things, not scary movies, not big noises in the house at night. I wasn’t a scared person, but this was scary. “Come on, babe. Empty your pockets and you won’t get hurt”
