Anna's POV

I slide down the wall outside of Niall's room and simply....cry. My shaking hands cover my face, trying to hide my tears. It is all I could do to keep myself from punching a wall in anger. I can't believe I got myself into this situation.

Love is harder than I thought, or at least I think it's love.

"Are you ok?" A concerned voice towers over me. It's Liam.

"Um, well...." I quickly try to wipe my tears away, but in the process more fall to my cheeks making me sob more. "I'm sorry." I cry and hide my face. This is so embarrassing.

Liam crouches down beside me and puts his hand on my knee, "No Anna, it's ok. Don't worry everything is going to be alright." He hugs me lightly like I'm a fragile piece of china ready to be broken, which at this point...I think I am. I hug him back crying into his shoulder.

I snuggle into his sweater, my tears making little wet spots on the sleeve. I take in his sweet scent, cinnamon and apples.

Breathing in the familiar scent calms my nerves and settles my sobs into pure tears. They fall down my cheeks, each an icy raindrop chilling my skin.

"Let's take you home." Liam gives me a quick forced smile. He lightly grabs my hand and I start to stand up. He puts his arm around me and we start to walk out the hospital. I force myself not to look back at the operation room, because I know I will breakdown once more if I did.

"Do you need anything else?" Liam's face is filled with concern. His brow in crinkled.

"No, I'm okay." I lightly mumble while I sit onto he edge of his guest bed. His flat was bigger than I thought it would be. "Thanks, for everything." I try to smile but miserably fail. Great.

He comes over and sits next to me. "No need to say thanks, I would help you any day." He scoots a little closer to me.

I smile slightly but it quickly fades with the memory of Niall's hurt face between my hands. "Oh. Thanks. I'm going to get some sleep now if that's okay...?" Or I'm going to try....I think to myself.

"Of course." Liam gives me a quick smile and gets up from his seat on the bed. "Have a nice sleep." He walks out of the small bedroom and softly closes the door behind him.

"Thanks." I quietly say and wrap myself in the blankets. How am I going to sleep without Niall? This is going to be a long night.

SORRY THAT WAS SOO SHORT! BUT I HOPE YOU LIKE IT! BAII
