Stand Up

Chapter 7

Niall's P.O.V

Tonight is just like any other night sat with Mollie waiting for Philippa to come round.

But something was different she seemed have made progress. The nurse said that she is being weened off her medication that is keeping her in a coma.

We have been sat here for about an hour. And something is happening I can feel her hand twitching Philippa's hand is twitching.

Mollie looked up as soon as she felt movement too. Then the one thing I have wanted the most to see her eyes Philippa was finally awake.

"Water." Philippa croaked.

"Here." Mollie passed some water over to Philippa.

"Where am I?" Philippa asked looking up at us both.

"Your in the hospital." I reply looking down at Philippa who just looks so fragile and ill.

"I don't want to be here." Philippa spoke her voice breaking with tears pouring down her face.

"Come on Philippa you wont be here for long and then you can come back to mine if you want to." I say holding her hand again.

"Please that would be nice Niall." She replied smiling weakly.

"Its alright, I'll be right back." I reply letting go of her hand and walking towards the door.

Philippa's P.O.V

God my throat is so sore. I cant fully remember what happened but I can guess it was something to do with that lovely woman I used to live with.

"Mollie?" I say looking over at my best friend who looks so shattered and drained.

"Yes?" Mollie replied looking up at me.

"W-what happened to me?" I ask getting straight to the point.

"You don't remember?" She asked looking at me concerned.

"N-no I don't, why you looking at me like that?" I asked she is starting to worry me.

"Philippa you collapsed at Nialls house, but we don't know why." Mollie replied.

"Oh I think I might know why." I replied a tear slipped down my face just at the thought of why I possibly collapsed.

"Wait one second so I can get the doctor and you can tell him." Mollie replied before walking out of the room. 

Couple of minutes late Mollie, Niall and a bloke i presume who is the doctor all walk in the room. Niall and Mollie resume their previous positions sat next to me on either side of the bed.

"So Philippa your awake which is excellent, Mollie said you think you know why you collapsed would you be able to tell me why please darling?" The doctor asked standing at the foot of my bed looking at me.

"Yeah a couple of weeks ago I was doing some bits around the house for my step-mum when I was pushed down the stairs I think I knocked my head because I think I can remember everything going black for a bit but then everything was fine, she said it was nothing and that I tripped because I couldn't fully remember what happened. Then last week I was in the kitchen and she may of thrown a plate at me because I didn't do something right for her. I think that is about all I can remember that could of possibly caused this to happen." I replied Mollie had tears in her eyes and Niall looked sad and angry at the same time.

"Right thank you do you have any breathing problems other than your asthma?" The doctor asked looking at me.

"Erm no not that I know of." I reply feeling really tired all of a sudden.

"Well thanks for letting us know I will add these to your notes on the computer you need to sleep the drugs will have tired you  out."  The doctor replied and then walked out of the room. Soon as the door closed I fell into a deep sleep.

NEXT DAY

I was soon woken up with what sounds like people whispering well trying to and failing miserably.

"What time is it?" I asked opening my eyes slowly as the light was too bright for me.

"Its about ten in the morning how you feeling love?" Niall asked looking at me whilst passing me a cup of water. He can re minds he can.

"Oh thanks for that need that drink, can I ask who are they?" I ask pointing to the people sat down on the floor as I couldn't fully see who it was." 

"That's the boys, you know the other four of One Direction." Niall replied smiling at me.

"Oh right hi guys cant see properly my brain isn't functioning properly yet." I reply smiling at them as they stand up with Mollie as well I didn't notice her there.

"Has your brain ever functioned properly Philippa." Mollie asked sarcastically.

"Yeah it has thank you very much I'm not dippy like you." I reply laughing.

"Well this is the Philippa I like to see." Mollie reply hugging me carefully.

"So Philippa as you know this is Louis, Harry, Zayn and Liam." Niall spoke up pointing to each of the lads.

"How long have you lot been sat there." I ask looking at them for an answer.

"Long enough to know that you fidget a hell of a lot and that you like to talk in your sleep at times." Louis replied smirking.

"I don't fidget since when do I fidget?" I reply sarcastically.

"Very funny." Mollie replied.

"Yes I know I am." I reply quickly god I am back to the girl I was when everything was ok. I like this side of me.

"When can I leave, I don't want to be here and I don't want to even try and that shit they try and serve called food."I reply, only for them to look at me gobsmacked, well part from Mollie because she knows I swear.

"Well I don't know when you can leave soon I think." Liam replied smiling at me.

They are up to something I know they are.
