5 Idiots and Me

Chapter 19

I would like to dedicate this chapter to BraveAngelGirl for being an amazing Wattpad friend and a brilliant author. GO READ HER STORY NOW! I COMMAND YOU!

Haha, just kidding, but seriously, Read. Her. Story.

*Recap*

             So I told what happened at the beach, and exactly what the doctor said, scared of their reactions. At first, no one moved or said anything. Then, Louis stepped up and glared at me. “It’s all your fault, Chelsea.” He hissed.

            I stood there surprised and I could tell the boys were in shock as well. “Wha…what do you mean Lou?” I whispered.

            He sent daggers at me, piercing my heart with his ice cold tone. “Yes, you heard me. If it wasn’t for your stupid idea to push him in the water and make him get a freaking concussion, he would be here with us having fun, but nooooooo, you just had to make him suffer, didn’t you? And we have a concert in two days. Nice going, Chels.” Louis said coldly. 

            I hung my head in shame. Even if I hated to admit it, he was right. “You’re right Louis. I did—“

            “NO!” Liam shouted, enraged, “It. Is. Not. Chelsea’s. Fault.” He continued through gritted teeth, “How could say that kind of stuff about her, Louis? What is wrong with you?”

            Zayn stepped up and stood by my side. “Yeah, Lou.”

            Louis glared at Liam, then at me again. “Fine, none of you guys have to side with me, but none of you guys disagree with me either. You said it yourself Liam, don’t deny it. All of you guys did.”

My eyes watered and I felt my chest tighten. “I’m sorry, Louis.” I whispered.

For a brief moment, guilt flashed across his face, but it was gone as quick as it came. Lou leaned close into me just until his lips brushed my ear, “I know about your secret, Chelsea, you can’t hide it anymore.”

Before I could even react, the door burst opened. All of us jumped in surprise and I turned as Doctor Andrew came out looking happy. He smiled at me and looked at the boys. “Mr. Styles is awake, and he would like to see all of you.”

*End of Recap*

My breath caught in my throat and I stood rooted to my spot. Niall was the first to react. “HARRY!” He screamed pushing past Doctor Andrew and running into the room.

Liam soon went in after, most likely to make sure Niall doesn’t accidently kill anyone in his excitement. Louis went in next, but not without giving me a death glare. I winced and looked at the ground not moving until an arm wrapped around my shoulders. I looked up to see Zayn giving me a reassuring smile and felt him give me a small comforting squeeze. I managed a small smile back and in together we went.

I couldn’t see Harry since he was blocked by Liam but I could hear him. And as cheesy as it sounds, it’s like I could finally be in peace again.

I’ve gone insane.   

As if his happiness is my happiness—

Okay seriously, someone call the doctor. I think I’ve completely lost it.

“Where’s Chelsea?” The angel called out.

My head snapped up as the boys moved away from the hospitalized boy. Sitting on the bed in a ridiculous white hospital gown with crazy bed hair was my Harry. Tears filled my eyes as we stared at each other. It’s like Harry never drowned or hit his head or was out cold for several hours straight. It was like there was no one else here except for me and this crazy boy. I moved away from Zayn’s grasp and stepped forward. I don’t remember when exactly, but I ended up running at an un-human speed to the bed and almost knocking Harry over in a giant hug.
