HANNA'S POV

 "What's wrong?" Harry asked. 

"Niall and Liam were in an accident. They're at the hospital. We have to go now." I said quickly scrambling up and running out the door. 

"Wait what?! Hanna what happened?!" Harry called out after me. I could hear him on the stairs behind me but I was already out the front door. I jumped in the front seat and tried to start the car, but my hand was shaking so badly I couldn't put the key in the ignition. 

"Come on... Dammit!" I yelled when I couldn't keep my hand steady. Suddenly an arm reached across my body and a hand wrapped itself around my own. I looked up through the tears pooling in my eyes to see Harry's calming face. 

"Hanna, you're too emotional to drive. Please, can I have the keys?" He asked softly. I nodded and handed him the keys and then scooted over to the passanger side to let Harry in the drivers seat. He slid the key into the ignition and started the car effortlessly. 

"So while I drive, tell me what you were told on that phone call." He said as he pulled out of the driveway. 

"Well I answered the phone and it was a nurse from St. Mary's hospital (A/N idk if that's a real hospital I'm just making it up for now) and she said that I was the first contact in Niall's favorites. She said that him and Liam had gotten hit by some idiot turning into the wrong lane. It was head on. She said she would explain the rest when we got there." I said shakily. 

"Hanna?" I turned to face Harry. 

"Yes?"

"They're going to be okay. You know that right?" I didn't answer right away. 

"Hanna, I need you to understand that please. The nurse didn't tell you anything, for all you know they could just need a ride home or something. They'll be fine." He said reaching over and squeezing my hand. I squeezed it back and didn't let go until we got to the hospital. We ran inside and to the reception desk. 

"Hi, we're looking for Niall Horan and Liam Payne." Harry told the lady. She searched her computer before telling us the floor and room number. We thanked her and quickly made our way to the elevators. When we reached the fourth floor we walked down the endless hallway until we saw Liam sitting in a chair outside of the room. 

"Liam!" I called running towards him. His head shot up and I saw him wince. We reached him and I gave him a hug. 

"Are you okay?!" I asked franticly searching him for injuries. I saw a few scratches on his face and his clothes were a little ripped but other than that he seemed fine. 

"Ya, I'm fine. But umm..." Liam said trailing off. 

"Liam where's Niall?" I asked worridly. He didn't answer me. 

"Liam answer me!" I screamed at him. I felt Harry put a hand on my shoulder but I shook him off. 

"I-- Oh hello Dr. Forbes. This is Hanna, I believe you spoke to her on the phone." Liam said. I turned around to see a doctor in her forty's with short blonde hair and a kind face. 

"Hello Hanna. And who's this?" She asked motioning to Harry. 

"I'm Harry. I'm her stepbrother. It's nice to meet you." Harry said shaking the doctor's hand. 

"Of course, now let's talk about Niall." She said gesturing for all of us to take a seat. She pulled up a chair and sat in front of us. 

"Firstly, I just want to put away any worries, I completely expect for him to make a full recovery." We all breathed a huge sigh of relief. 

"Then if you don't mind Dr. Forbes, what's wrong with Niall?" Harry asked still calmly. 

"Well, since Niall was positioned in the car at the exact place of impact, his side of the car got crushed more than Liam's did. It looks like his head banged against the car resulting in a concussion. Unfortunatly also, the side of the car also broke a few of his ribs and pinned his leg breaking it as well. He's also suffered many minor cuts and bruises like Liam did." She gave us a few seconds to process what she had said. I grabbed Harry's hand again and  laced my fingers through his.

"I also have to warn you, there could be some memory loss." She said slowly. I gripped Harry's hand tighter. What if he didn't remember us? I guess there was only one way to find out. 

"Can we see him?" I asked.  

"Of course. Right this way." She said standing up. We all stood up and followed her down the endless hallway until we reached a room at the end. She opened the door for us and motioned for all of us to go in. Harry tugged me in and I gasped when I saw Niall. 

One side of his face was almost completely bruised and cut up and he had a badage wrapped around his forehead. His leg was elevated with plaster wrapped around it and there were a couple IV's attatched to him as well as the heart monitor. When we walked through the door we saw his head slowly turn towards us. 

"Well look who's awake!" Dr. Forbes said slipping in front of Harry and I to check a few things. 

"Where am I?" He asked confused. 

"You're in St. Mary's hospital. You were in a car accident." Dr. Forbes told him. 

"Oh. Harry! Liam! Are you guys okay?" He asked. 

"I'm fine Niall. Harry wasn't in the accident though." Liam said. 

"Oh that's good. Anway, do I see a pretty little brunette hiding behind Harry?" Niall said trying to peer around Harry to where I was standing. I smiled immedietly and ran up to hug him. 

"I'm so glad you're okay Niall." I said hugging him gently. I went to give him a kiss but he leaned back. 

"Whoa, I thought you were Harry's girlfriend. I didn't mean to give you the wrong impression, but I have a girlfriend you see. Her name is Ella. Speaking of which, is she on her way Harry?" Niall said. My eyes filled with tears as I backed away from Niall. 

"Hanna, it's okay..." Harry said seeing the heartbroken expression on my face. He didn't remember me. 

"Niall, you don't remember Hanna?" Liam asked. "Think hard." Niall studied my face for a while before shaking his head no. 

"I'm sorry I don't. Should I?" He asked. I couldn't take it anymore. I shoved past Liam, Harry and Dr. Forbes. I cold hear Harry call my name but I ignored him and ran down the hall with tears streaming down my face. He didn't remember me...
