Unexpected Turn. [h.s. & n.h.]

Chapter 9

Hello, Normally I would do authors note at the end but when I started the story I did have to write out a lot of the story on paper because I didn't have my computer and while I was writing I skipped days so I have day 1, 3, 7, 8 and 12 so there are a lot of big gaps to fill so I am going to move onto day three to get things moving a bit faster.

DAY 3

I woke up at 6 am, I didn't try to sleep at the hospital again because I knew how it would end. Niall was sound asleep beside me, on his side and snoring but a small faint snore. I slipped out of bed and made my way to the kitchen, Niall had one of those fancy coffee machines with the little tabs. Lately coffee has been my best friend, I took two cups. One medium sized one and on espresso cup. I made the espresso and evened out the bitter with sweet and gulped it down, a regular cup of coffee followed after that. I decided on sticking with a cream cheese bagel and a sour green apple, I plopped myself onto the couch and started to eat,

"What the hell are you doing up" I heard Niall's morning voice said behind me.

"I couldn't sleep anymore," I said shrugging my shoulders.

"Allie its 6:30 just because you cant sleep doesn't mean you should jump out of bed so early. You could have just lied and rested a little longer."

"Niall its fine, I'm up now and I'm probably not sleeping again."

He disappeared without a word; I let out a deep breath and leaned back on the couch flicking though the TV channels, I head Niall come back into the living room, honestly he was just pissy so I didn't even turn to look at him until I felt a huge weight on my shoulder, he had placed the duvet over my shoulders,

"What the heck are you doing?" I said almost laughing

"I am brining the bed to you. " he said trying to say serious

"Stop you're being ridiculous" I said laughing

Obviously he ignored me, 3 minutes later all the pillows, the duvet and fuzzy blankets were on the couch.

"And now what"

"Now we watch some crappy morning TV"

"We could have done that in bed though"

"Yeah but this is better"

I rolled my eyes laughing because there was really no difference but he would have tried to prove that there was if I kept talking, there was nothing on, only news or weather. I had stopped watching the news because in my opinion they always show too much of the bad and never the good. I mean yes, terrible things do happen in our world that do need to be talked about but incredible happy things happen every single day and I believe that those should be brought to light as well. We ended up watching a recording of D.Phil. One summer Brin and I lived in a summerhouse in Brisbane. A lot of weird stuff happened there, stuff I don't eve know how to explain but that's when our obsession with D.Phil started. We would literally binge watch every episode, and then when we went back to Sydney we continued, never missing an episode. So still to this day I recorded all of them and watch them when I please. Niall had fallen asleep again, which was typical because he's always tired. I started to get groggy myself, I was wrapped in two blankets and pillows all around, almost like a nest plus the heat was turned up to high so I did started to get sleepy again. Just as my eyes were about to flutter closed there was a ringing at the doorbell, Niall didn't wake but I got up. I made my way slowly to the door and opened it, it was Louis.

"Hi good morning, are you guys still sleeping, I'm sorry if I woke you." He stuttered out.

"No lou its fine, I've been up for hours. Please come in its freezing"

He gave me a warm smile and came inside.

"Niall is still sleep but ill wake him and make coffee for the two of you,"

"That would be lovely but I'm actually here to talk to you"

"You are?"

"I just wanted to see if maybe you wanted to go for a walk and coffee tomorrow."

"I would like that"

"Good, I can pick you up from here tomorrow at around 10 and then we can go see Harry and then go out if that works for you?"

"That works perfect."

I woke up Niall who then started hitting me with pillows because he wanted to keep sleeping. Lou and Niall drank their coffees sitting at the table because it was impossible to sit on the couch unless you wanted to be wrapped in blankets. I made my way back and got myself ready. I swear I was getting worse day by day making myself look presentable. Today I had on a pair of grey leggings, a black tank top, a black sweater unzipped and my black and green flannel over. I left my hair as it was, messy. Louis and Niall were still chatting non-stop as I entered the kitchen again,

"Are you heading out?" Niall said to me

"Yeah I just wanted to stop by the hospital and see if Anne was there"

"Do you want me to drive you?" Lou said

"No it's fine, but thank you."

"Allie are you sure?"

"Niall it's a 15 minute drive, I'm okay."

"Just call me when you get there"

"I will don't worry."

I put my black Nikes on and grabbed my small handbag that had just enough space for my phone and my wallet. I drive a black two-door jeep, I had one in AUS too and I guess I was so comfortable and used to driving on I had to get another one here. I sat in the car first of all plugging in the keys so I could let the windows defrost. I pulled out my aux cord of the compartment box and plugged it in. I shuffled Brinley's "Sunday acoustics" playlist; the first song playing was "homeless" by Ed. The windows had cleared up and I started to drive. For some reason I was nervous to drive, I mean I'm a good driver, always have and always been it just felt weird driving. I arrived at the hospital safely so I texted Niall.

"Hey, I made it to the hospital, I don't how long I will be but I'll call you when I am on my way back."

"Alright good, ill see you later"

I tucked my phone in my purse and made my way in, I went to the front desk said good morning to the nurse and signed in. I walked down the long hallway to Harry's room. There was an older lady who had greeted me every time I'd come to the hospital. Today she wasn't out in the halls but I knew her room was two doors over from Harry's,

"Good morning Alice" I said smiling at her

"Oh Allie it's so nice to see you again" she said beaming.

I walked further in the room and took a seat.

"Anything new with you?"

"No Allie, same as always. Yesterday when you left a beautiful tall girl went to see Harry"

Beautiful tall girl?

"Oh? What did she look like?" I said questioning.

"Brown hair, dark brown eyes, should I go on"

"No I know who it is" I smiled softly. "I should go over now but I will be back tomorrow"

"Good I look forward to it"

I walked out and into Harry's room. There were flowers all over but you could tell which ones were fresh and which ones were getting older. The fresh white roses were had to miss.

"I hope you get better Harry. Thinking about you. K."

I let out a deep breath and spoke in my head "now is not he time to play pissed of jealous girlfriend". Katie and Harry had history and a lot of it. I wasn't fond of her at all, I'm really not the type to hate someone but she's just one of those people who get on my nerve just by talking. There was a innocent a few months back where we all went to a party and she happened to be there and she basically threw herself at Harry as I watched. Basically she never apologized so it made me dislike her even more. But she was probably just being nice in these flowers so I choose to ignore it, I was just hoping she wouldn't come around as I was here.

I will have part two up later tonight or tomorrow morning. happy reading. A.
