Chapter 9: "They Don't know about us"

~About 2 months later.~

Harper’s POV

I reread Niall’s text over and over and over again. I still couldn’t believe it, no matter how many times I’d read it. I was acting like a little kid.

Hey umm idk how to break this to you. Bethany’scomingovertonightkbyebabe.

Not that little skank. I could write a list 2 times this Earth that she’s done. Of course she’s beautiful. She acts like a little brat. Her and Harry weren’t together. They broke up 3 weeks ago because she saw someone else. But she found out he was a “jerk” and Harry’s taking her back in. I still couldn’t believe it to be completely honest. Harry can be real gullible at times. Especially when he’s in “love”

Alana was here hanging out. She was telling me about this movie she saw yesterday. I wasn’t listening. I loved her to death but I was having an anxiety attack. 

All I heard was her scream and then it was black.

Niall’s POV

I can’t believe Harry was still with this ‘Bethany’ girl. She obviously hates Harper and everything about her. Who could hate Harper? I lov-. Fine. I love her. But what if she doesn’t feel that way yet? I can’t tell her. But I know I should.

Baby you a song, you make me wanna roll my windows down, and cruuuise.

I slid my phone to unlock. Harper’s calling.

“Yes bab-“

“NIALL!! IT’S ALANA! HARPER JUST PASSED OUT…” She continued but I couldn’t hear the rest. Too shocked. 

My baby. My beautiful baby. 

“On my way!” I shouted. 

I ran into my car with everyone watching. I drove way past the speeding limit. Lani won’t know what to do. My mom’s a nurse, she trained me for emergencies like this.

I got to her front door and barged in. I ran into her bedroom with Harper laying on the bed and Alana freaking out. 

“ALANA. Calm yourself and get me some water for her.”

I started to do CPR. Alana was already back with the water, handing it to me.

I poured some on my hand and put it all over her hot face. I sat her up and got more water and I had to do CPR while Alana was putting water on her face. 

Harper’s POV

My eyes fluttered and I saw a breathless Niall and a tear-stained Lani looking down at me. 

“Thank God! She’s okay!!!” Alana smiled and high fived Niall.

I was completely clueless. What the crap was going on??

Niall must’ve seen my confusion.

“Hey princes. Alana called me when You had passed out” He started.

“PASSED OUT?!?!” I interrupted.

“Yeah. And then I came and gave you CPR and tried to help and apparently it worked.” He kissed my head.

“But now you’re good”

Harper’s POV

I walked into the boy’s flat using the key he gave me.

“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYS..” I sing-sung.

I was waltzing in and I ran into Bethany.

“Oh you.” She smirked.
