Notes to Natalie

Natalie's POV

The last thing I remembered was Niall picking me up off the cold hard ground. I smelled sweat and I was burning hot. I couldn't speak words. I think I remember Liam telling me I was knocked out cold.

I woke up in the morning to see I was in my bed. My head was killing me. I felt ice on my forehead and tried to sit up. It didn't work. I stayed snuggled up in the warm blankets.

Niall walked into the room. He saw my eyes open and yelled, "Guys, she's awake!" I smiled. I'm glad they were here for me. The last few days have been a wreck.

Soon, everyone was in the room. Niall, Louis, Liam, Zayn, Harry, and Emily.

"H-How are you?" Em said trying to hold back her tears. She was so sensitive, poor Em.

I tried to speak but all that came out was mumbles. I was so sore.

"Hey guys, would you mind if I had a few minutes with Nat by myself?" asked Niall. I'm glad he was asking, I needed to say some things to him myself.

"Sure." said everyone as they walked out.

Now Niall and I were alone. He sighed a little and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"I should've protected you." He said.

"Niall you-" I tried to say

"No, Natalie I should've been there for you. We've been friends since we were three and its my job to keep you safe."

I laughed a little. Until I knew. It had all made sense. He had known me since I was three. He needed to protect me.

"It was you, Niall."
