Leaving You

Leah's P.O.V

After showing Andrea to Boots, I walked back the other way to the hospital. Last night I brought her to hotel and she liked the room. It was still nice and clean. Her things went into a drawer of her own. Our hotel room was now girlified. Shampoo, makeup, dresses, and well that time of the month products were scattered everywhere. We even shared the king bed. I loved staying with my best friend. It was everything I dreamed of. She already got a job at the local newspaper writing in the current affairs section.

I dodged a few people while entering the hospital. My phone was beeping constantly from Zayn. He apologised over and over. I didn't want him to. Nothing was his fault, I just needed time to be myself. In every paper it proper event I was just know as 'Zayn Malik's Girlfriend'. It would be nice to go by Leah Sanchez.

To: Zayn<3

We are fine babe. How is Sweden ? Any girls flashing you ? Xx

He texted back as I sat in my usual seat next to Niall.

From: Zayn<3

I wouldn't look at them ! I just picture your's and I'm good. Xxx

I laughed at him. A sigh escaped me as I re read the text. Sometimes he was romantic, but sometimes he could be awkward.

"You've been here everyday since he's been here ! Is he special to ya ?" A busty Scottish nurse entered the suite with pillows. I nearly jumped out of my skin at her sudden arrival.

"He's been there fir me when I need a friend. A big brother to me actually." I answered her with a smile. Her hands fiddled with a few machines until he was only connected to two now.

"Maybe when he gets up and finds out that you've been here everyday for 6 hours things will change. By the way he's progressed greatly. He'll be waking up soon." The nurse's words shocked me. She thought we were together or possibly might get together. I was just here for my friend, that I told my mum I loved.

Niall was warm and not so pale anymore. It seemed that day by day he was getting better. My heart warmed at the thought of him waking up soon.

Out of boredom I decided TV would be a good idea. I flicked past Dr. Who and a documentary on the Queen. Finally I stopped at Friends. It was the one with Rachel and Ross admitting their love for the first time. It reminded me of Zayn and I. Ross and Rachel were up and down for years. Eventually they have a baby. Coincidence ? At the very end they end up together with their baby. I hoped that it would come true for Zayn and I. I really missed him. My vision was completely on the screen for the next hour without hesitation. The occasional nurse/doctor would come in and check on him. They would make small talk until they were done. A few told me to expect him to wake up around next week when his family comes. That was just three days away. The boys and the girlfriends all went to Sweden for four days. It was business for the band and the girls were allowed to attend. I declined when Zayn asked. It hurt him, but we talked and called daily. A funny joke was said by one if the characters on the screen. I awkwardly laughed loud, hearing the echo. Suddenly I felt something grab my wrist. It took a minute to register, but once it did I flipped.

"Holy mother fu-" I screamed at the top of my lungs. My eyes were wide with the sudden scare. Just before I could pull my hand away I met blue eyes.

"Niall oh my god !" His hand still held my wrist. That was a blunt way to wake up from a coma.

"Hey Leah." His voice was raspy as he spoke. Different from his sweet Irish one. I scooted closer to his bed side. He shifted his weight onto his elbows and cringed.

"Be careful silly ! You just had the best night of sleep !" I shot forward to help him out. My hands held his arms to help shift upward. Once satisfied with his positioning, he turned to me. His face was confused.

"What the hell happened ?" I laughed at him. Not to be rude, but it was amazing to hear his voice. After all this time he was up finally.

"Do you really wanna know ?" I asked him with a worried look. I didn't know if he could handle it exactly. However, he nodded. It took me a minute to collect my thoughts and sort them.

"About two weeks ago you were out and about just outside of London. A mob started and you got to your car. They chased you and ran into the street. You swerved not to hit them and instead you hit a tree." I stopped to let him catch up. It was a lot if information to take in. His hands rubbed his face.

"How come I don't remember it ?" Niall was totally confused now. He had every right to be.

"You've been in a coma since. Right after surgery they lost you."

"Where is everyone ?"

"Management ordered them to Sweden. They were here everyday though. Dani and El were here too, but they're in Sweden. Your family is flying here in three days. There was an issue with passports or else they would've been here sooner." The room took a happier feel to it.

"I can't believe you're here. It means the world to me Leah. How much have you been here ?" My cheeks reddened up. I was nervous to tell him the truth. He would think I was weird.

"Everyday. I didn't want you to wake up to no one. You would've felt horrible. Plus I don't work so I have time." A pearly white smile was directed at me. I was pulled in for a deep hug.

"Leah I can't thank you enough that honestly means the world. I can't believe you came everyday. You are truly amazing." My heart fluttered at his touch. He was finally back to true warmth again.

"I'm so glad you woke up."

"Me too." We hugged for another few seconds before pulling away. I was ecstatic that be was up. I missed him so much.
