Fixing the Past

Chapter 4

*Harry's POV*

I sat on the curb and sobbed until something distracted me. I looked down and saw my phone light up with Niall's perfect face. I was overjoyed that I answered immediately.

"Niall, baby, I'm sorry. I do"

"Um, Excuse me sir, is this Harry," the unfamiliar voice questioned.

"Yes I'm Harry. Who are you?"

"I am Dr. Hartnell from Norwich Community Hospital.Well, your boyfriend Niall Horan, has been in a terrible car crash. We don't know if he's going to make it."

The tears returned and I uncontrollably sobbed into the phone. "I'm on my way doctor."

I quickly ended the call and called for a cab. We quickly sped to the hospital and I ran inside after paying the driver.

I passed by about twenty doors before finding Niall's room. The doctors said he was in a coma and didn't know if he would wake up.

"Niall, I love you. I'm sorry. I will marry you. I don't know what I was thinking."

No response. I stood up and kissed his cheek. I stayed by Niall's side day and night. The fourth day I saw him move his hand. I firmly gripped it in mine and when I squeezed I felt him squeeze back. I was so surprised I almost forgot to call the doctor in.

I was about to walk down to the hospital cafeteria that night but I heard a husky Irish accent calling my name and I rushed back in to see my love's eyes flutter open. I had missed his sea blue eyes. I grabbed his hand and gently kissed his cheek.

"W-what happened? I only remember driving home."

"You were in an accident honey. I was so worried. And I thought about it and the answer is yes."

"The answer to what?" Niall asked surprised.

"I want to be your husband. I was just stunned when you asked me."

"But I don't know who you are." Niall said solemnly.

"Niall?" My tears began to fall onto his hospital robe and I quickly wiped them away.

"Harry, I'm kidding."

"Oh my god Niall y-," He cut me off with a passionate kiss.

"When's the wedding?" I heard someone ask from behind me. I turned around and saw his mother standing in the doorway. "My baby is alive!" She ran in and hugged Niall.

"Hello Mrs. Horan." I asked as she squeezed me in one of her legendary hugs.

"Hello Harry. I'll have to get used to calling you my son-in-law." She winked and I heard the doctor come in.

"Hello. Good to see you're awake Mr. Horan. It looks like you will make a full recovery. You may have headaches because the wreck gave you a slight concision. It seems as though an angel has been watching over you." He gathered his paperwork. "You may check out tomorrow after we finish our testing."

"That's great. Thanks doctor." I say as Niall leans in once more to kiss me.

*Niall's POV*

I couldn't wait to get Harry home. We needed to celebrate that we were going to get married. The whole way home I kept my hand on Harry's knee.

I walked him inside of the house and set my keys on the table. Then turned around and grabbed Harry's waist, pulling him closer to me.

I connected our lips, keeping the kiss slow and sweet. I want to show Harry how much I love him, and I need to keep the whole situation slow, sweet, and loving. Not rushed.
