Our Moment

Chapter 7

Ariella's POV

I was wheeled into the X-ray room and I was helped out of the wheelchair. The nurses helped me walk over to the machine and had me hold on to bars so I wouldn't fall. After a few X-rays were taken they brought me back up to my room. I was greeted by six familiar faces and I smiled at them all. Niall and Harry seemed a little off. But all of that was put aside when Hazel ran over to my bed and sat beside me. She looked at the lads as if telling them to give us a moment. All five of the them left Hazel and I alone. She looked at me with a smile. I gave her a confused look and she told me to be quiet. She slightly cracked the door and we listened quietly.

Louis' POV

I knew what I had to do. It was for Hazel, how could I not do it? I cleared my throat and the lads looked at me.

"Niall, Harry, since you both like Ariella, are either of you ever going to tell her?" I looked at them curiously as they looked at each other and then back at me.

"I- I was planning on telling her tonight." Harry exclaimed shyly. Niall looked at him and then at the ground.

"I was going to tell her tonight also." Niall said. I nodded. Then Harry bolted off down the hallway and out of sight. What was that about? I coughed loud enough so Hazel could close the door without the lads knowing what I had done.

Hazellynn's POV

I quietly closed the door an looked at Ariella. Her face was blank. I walked over to her and sat down beside her.

"Hey, Arie? Are you okay?" I asked quite concerned. She nodded and looked at me.

"H- Harry and Niall like me?" She asked surprised. How was this not obvious to her! Wow! I nodded with a smile on my face. The doctor interrupted our conversation as she walked into the room. She looked at me and then Arie. What was going on?

"Ariella, I got your results back. Would you like your other friends to be in here when I tell you?" The doctor asked and Ariella nodded. She got the lads, everyone was here except Harry and Ariella noticed. She seemed disappointed. The doctor hung up one of the X-rays and looked at us. "Ariella, you have 4 fractured ribs. You can be discharged in the morning but you have to be on bed rest for two weeks." Ariella nodded and Niall looked at her sympathetically.

Harry's POV

I bolted down the hallway. I ran to the nearest flower shop and bought Arie a dozen red and white roses and a teddy bear. I walked back to the hospital and got in the elevator. I waited patiently until I got to the floor she was on. I knocked on the door and opened it quietly. Hazel and the lads must've gone for food because Ariella was lying there alone. I walked over to her side and handed her the flowers and teddy bear. She looked up at me with her captivating smile and I melted.

"Ariella, I like you and I have liked you since earlier yesterday. (They met the girls yesterday around noon and it is now 7:30 PM the next day) Niall likes you as well, so I'm not sure how you feel about me and stuff. But I want, no I need you to know that you are the most gorgeous girl I know. In the small amount of time that I have known you, I've realized you're funny, shy, an amazing singer, kind, caring and that you run away from your problems." I let out a deep breath and looked at her nervously.

"Awh, Harry. That was the sweetest thing ever. I like you too, but you and Niall have been so competitive lately with trying to get my attention and I'm not sure how to feel about either of you." She said softly. I nodded and I think my heart cracked a little. I just wanted her to tell me that she loves me and wants to be with me. I guess that doesn't happen unless you're a little blonde leprechaun named Niall.
