The Notebook- Chapter 42
Sophia’s POV
We walk out of the small chapel and make our way to my room, “Josh, who would do this to her? Why?”
He shrugs his shoulders, “I don’t know Sophia, but I swear I will find out and-”
“Wait, you’re gonna tell Liam right?” he nods his head, “You can’t, we can’t tell anyone.”
“What the hell are you talking about? Liam needs to know, her family needs to know…what if she…”
“She won’t.” I tell him gently but firmly. “Think about it though, if we tell him, then everyone else is going to find out and what if the person that wants her dead comes back and, well…you know, finishes the job.”
He contemplates it for a while and then looks up at me, “I hadn’t thought of that.” he eyes me suspiciously. “Are you sure you’re not just-”
“I wouldn’t. Look, I’m not using this to keep Zayn away and…I do this for Danielle, she’s going to live, but we need to protect her.”
A ghost of a smile passes his face, “I’m gonna go check and see if they have any updates on her.” he walks out of the room and I walk to the bed and lie down.
“Please Danielle, I know you can pull through this,” I close my eyes and drift off into a deep sleep.
Zayn’s POV
“See you later lads.” I walk to my car. “Sophia…” I let her name slip out and I can’t help but smile, but that smile falters. She’s been going through some hard times lately, loosing both John and Ryan in a span of a week took a big toll on her, especially her health. I know she tries to hide it from me but it’s blatantly obvious she’s getting worse. I pull up in the driveway and quickly get out. “Soph?” I walk to our room and look around for her, “Sophie?” a piece of paper catches my attention. I walk to it and pick it up:
Zayn,
Since the first moment I laid eyes on you, I knew you were the one. I thank God every day that I found that notebook, that notebook that opened my eyes to another world, your world. Unwillingly and unbeknownst to me, I was falling in love with you. When we first met, it will be one of the greatest days of my life, I will never forget all the moments we had. Those days that we spent in Rio, in our own world, surrounded and bubbled in our love will forever be in my heart but I can’t do this anymore. I’m not the strong person everyone has made me out to be…we weren’t meant to be. I know I’ve said this so many times already but I can’t, this time it’s definite, we’re over. I love you, you will always be the love of my life. Please, be happy and love that baby with all your heart, he is your new reason to keep going. Goodbye.
I crumble the paper in my hands. I hit the foot of the bed and fall to the ground, “Sophia, you can’t leave me like this!” I shout. “I love you.” I bury my face in my hands, “You know I need you.” I get up and grab my keys, “No, I’m not letting you go like that Sophia,” I start walking out the door when Liam bursts in. “What’s wrong mate?” I ask when I see his deathly pale face.
“Zayn…I can’t- I don’t- she’s-”
I get closer to him, “Liam, stop clam yourself, you’re not making any sense. She? Who’s she?”
I takes a few deep breaths but it does nothing to help him, “Danielle, she’s not here, she’s been gone since yesterday and- I think something happened to her.” his eyes begin to water, “I told her to not go alone but she wouldn’t listen, she said it had something to do with Sophia-”
“Sophia? What could it be?” we settle in the couch, “Sophia’s gone though, she um, she left.” I tell him.
He looks surprised, “Why? What happened?”
I shrug my shoulders, “I don’t know but I will not let her leave just like this, I’m not.”
“Let’s go look for them, maybe they’re together?” Liam gets up and I follow.
“You’re right,” I grab my phone and stuff the letter in my pocket, “Let’s go.”
Sophia’s POV
“Soph?”
I open my eyes and look around, “What happened?”
“Are you ok?”
“Yea, I guess I kinda dozed off. Did you find out anything about Danielle, is she better?” I look at his arm, “What happened Josh?”
“I went to the doctor that’s treating her and he told me that’s she’s doing better but then a nurse came in and was yelling about how a patient is getting worse and that was mostly a blur. He came back and said that Danielle needed blood and since we have the same type, I gave her some. She’s doing better now, she’s stabilizing herself.”
“Oh my goodness, thank God you’re here.” I get up and hug him, “You’ve saved her life whether you want to acknowledge it or not.” we pull apart, “Can we see her now?”
“Yea, but only for a few minutes.” I nod and he leads the way to her room. “Do you want to go in with me?” he mumbles a yes and we go inside. I walk to one side and he on the other, “Hey Danni,” I lean down and place a kiss on her forehead, “It’s me, Sophia.” we talk to her for a few more minutes and when we’re about to leave, she starts stirring, “Josh, I think she’s waking up.” She moves a little more and slowly starts opening her eyes, “Danielle.”
She looks at both Josh and me, “Where am I?”
“You’re in the hospital, you had an accident and-”
She starts getting frantic, “Shh, Danni, don’t worry, you’re going to get better.”
“Sophia, don’t let her-”
“Don’t let her what?”
“Take him.” she manages to say before closing her eyes.
“Danielle? Danielle?” I look at the monitor and breath a sigh of relief when I see that she’s just lost consciousness again. Josh and I look at each other and then her, “We should go.” he agrees and we head out. “What do you think she was talking about?”
“I don’t know Soph but things are getting more complicated.” we tell a nurse passing by to check on her and make sure she’s alright. “I think we need to tell Liam. I’m sure he won’t tell anyone if we ask him.”
His eyes plead with mine, “Fine, you’re right but make sure he doesn’t tell anyone, especially Zayn.”
