HARRY'S POV

 We sat out in the waiting room for a couple of hours waiting for that nurse to arrive. I wish I had gotten her name so I could ask for her. Finally after two hours of pacing, she came back to the room. 

"Is she okay?' I immedietly asked. 

"She's fine now. We cleaned the drug out of her system and that helped clean the alcohol out as well. She should be fine by tomorrow." She told us smiling. Everyone rejoiced that our friend was okay, but I had to ask the nurse a question. 

"Ma'am, excuse me but, could you tell me what drug was in her system?" 

"It was...Roipnol." She said looking at her chart. That dick had roofied her. I hope he died in that parking lot...

"Can we see her?" I pleaded. 

"Yes, but only one of you at a time. She's very exhausted." The nurse explained. I looked towards the waiting group of friends. I could tell Reagan really wanted to go in, but she gave me a nod that said I could go first. I followed the nurse down a similar series of halls that we had been through when Niall was in the hospital. When we finally reached the room the nurse told me to go in and that she would come by later to check on her. I thanked her and went inside. 

Hanna looked really pale and weak. She heard the door and her eyes slowly fluttered opened and she turned her head to see me. 

"Harry." She croaked. I walked to her side and took a seat in the chair next to her bed. 

"How are you feeling?" I questioned. 

"Honestly, I'm really thirsty." She whispered. I took a paper cup and poured her a glass of water from the pitcher on the side table. She gulped it all down and her eyes immedietly brightened with the small amount of energy it gave her. I decided to ask the question that had been plaguing the back of my mind since I saved her tonight.

"Hanna, what do you remember?"  The glow in her eyes that had formed quickly disappeared when she started to recall the night. 

"I was dancing in a club, and then some guy came over and we started... you know... dancing. He offered me a few shots and I stupidly took them. I wasn't thinking cause I had already had a couple. The next thing I knew I couldn't feel my body and I called out for you and there you were. It was like a miracle. Wait, how did you know where I was?" She inquired. For some reason I blushed and looked away from her. 

"Well, I got worried when you didn't come home, so I went out to look for you..." I admitted. She looked shocked. 

"You were worried about me?" She asked, bewildered. 

"Ya, why wouldn't I be? You're my stepsister and I love you so... of course I would be worried." I mumbled. I saw her eyes water and tears start to spill down her cheeks. Oh shit, the last thing I wanted to do was make her cry. She surprised me by sitting up and pulling me into a hug. I know she was giving me what she considered a strong hug, but it felt so light. It was probably because she still had no strength. 

"I love you too Harry." My heart picked up as she said those words even though I knew she meant them in a different way. She moved her arms from around my neck and leaned back so that her hands were just resting on my cheeks now. I could hear my heartbeat accelerate as she moved closer. Just as our lips brushed, the door flew open and the nurse from earlier came in and we pulled back. She didn't seem to notice anything and if she did, she gave no indication of it. I backed away so that the nurse could have room to check all the instruments that were attatched to Hanna. I started to walk out of the room when she called me back. 

"Harry? Do you think... do you think you could stay? Please?" She begged. I tried to hide how happy it made me that she wanted me to stay with her. I walked back into the room and resumed my position in the chair next to her. She reached out and took my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze before closing her eyes. I could tell she fell asleep in seconds. I layed my head next to her and closed my eyes, drifting off into the most peaceful sleep I had had in months. 

LIAM'S POV

"What is taking them so long?" Reagan whined. I rolled my eyes and sent a text to Allie, letting her know what had happened. We had dinner plans but I had cancled so I could come here. 

"I'll go check on them." I volunteered. I followed a nurse's instructions until I arrived at room 3231. I pulled the door open and was about to say something when my eyes settled on the sight in front of me. I couldn't help but smile at the smile on Haz's face as he slept leaning against Hanna's bed. Upon closer inspection I also noticed their hands were tightly intertwined and that Hanna had turned over on her side so that her head was closer to Harry's. I took a picture to show Harry later and then quietly closed the door as I backed out. 

I knew the relationship was twisted, but personally, I supported it. I thought about how both of them seem to need each other and how honestly they are exactly what each other needs. It was going to be complicated, but I was going to try and help Harry get Hanna. Maybe not right away since she just broke up with Niall, but my goal would be that before Christmas Hanna and Harry would be together. I reached my group of friends and Reagan bombarded me with questions. 

"Chill, I think we should all go home. The nurse said Hanna would be okay and both her and Harry are sleeping." I explained. Reagan rolled her eyes but reluctantly agreed to come back first thing tomorrow. She intertwined her fingers with Louis as we all walked out of the hospital and into the clear night.
