I Know It's You (One Direction: Louis Tomlinson Fanfiction)

Chapter 17

Louis' POV

The rehearsal was postponed because of the incident.

We saw paramedics gather inside. Next, they put Niall's limp body in a stretcher.

I call the other lads to hop in my car to follow the ambulance.

When we pulled out at the arena, it was raining hard. Lightning shines bright followed by a grumbling thunder. It just makes everything worse.

I drove the car. Harry in the passenger seat while Liam and Zayn is in the back seat.

Harry was shifting every moment. His hands were shaking, fiddling his fingers.

"It's gonna be okay", I assured him. Giving a small smile.

I focus my attention back to the road. I try to think of what happened. Niall stormed out after I went there.

He's acting really weird this past days. It all started that Friday. He wouldn't tell me anything. I think he's mad at me. Why would he?

Maybe he finally knows that I ate his pack of Oreos. No I don't think so.

I look in the mirror and saw a crying Liam. He said it was his fault. That he didn't take care of us.

Uhm Liam, we're not baby anymore, I wanted to say but it'll make no sense. This is no time for joking.

After a few more turns we reach the hospital. I parked my car few feet away from the entrance.

As I pull the key to ignition, Liam flung open the door running inside. Zayn try to call him but he didn't turn. His voice is barely audible because of the rain.

We soon walk towards the lobby as we all piled out. I help Harry to walk as he was still shaking. His lips are trembling as he rub both his hands to make them warm.

" Here, take this scarf", offering it to him once we enter the lobby. It was colder than I thought here inside.

We head to the cafeteria to drink some tea. I left Harry to Zayn as I order.

"Three Yorkshire tea please", I ask politely to the lady in the cashier.

I stand there for a couple of minute as I think of random stuff. Then Niall popped out in my mind.

It send shiver to my entire body. Niall pass out and his leg was badly damaged. We can't do anything but wait and hope that he'll be okay.

" Sir, here's your tea", the lady said giving me my order. I thank her and went back to the boys.

We just sat there quietly, not knowing what to say. Until Harry broke the silence.

"What if he won't make it"

"Shut it Haz. You're not helping", Zayn said annoyingly as he fix his grey beanie.

" Everything will be fine", I said, ruffling his curls.

How can I say these words? I can't even convince myself that everything will be okay. My thoughts scattered inside my head, making it clouded.

My vision start spinning around, my head hurts. I rest my head on both of my hands as I tuck some of my loose hair.

"You okay?", Zayn asked cautiously. He was sitting on the edge of the chair. Alert of anything that will happen.

" I'm fine, just a bit woozy", I gather all my strength to answer.

"You need to rest Lou. Me and Harry will stay here"

Maybe he's right. I need to rest to clear my mind and relax. But what if something bad happen when I'm asleep. Random things happen when people is not aware.

I hear Harry's chair screeched as he come closer to me, which make my head hurt a little more.

He put his right hand on my left cheek and guided my to his shoulder.

"You need to sleep. We'll inform you if something happens", he whispered closely.

I nodded and try to close my eyes.

Niall's POV

My eyes flutter open. I knew I was inside the hospital. I've been here before.

The smell's the same. But this time it was warmer. Especially to my arm part.

I looked to my left and saw a girl sitting next to my bed. Her hand holding my arm tight but not too tight.

I shifted further until I saw her face.

Julie

She's here. Holding me like I'm going anywhere. Her touch activated my butterflies around my tummy.

She never left me. She just stay here until I woke up.

I shifted again to scan the room. I can't see the boys. It's just me and her.

I sighed as I try to sit up but these IVs attached in my hand defy me. Making wince as it shot pain all throughout my body.

My arm shook which makes her woke up. Her eyes is swollen red, tears stained her cheeks.

Her eyes shot wide when I she saw me. " Ni-Niall are you okay?"

"Am fine", my voice came out a whimper. My throat is sore.

" I-I'm so, so sorry", she began to cry again.

I use my free hand to get her head and motioned it to my chest. I hushed her and whisper sweet words that could calm her.

"It's not your fault", I said. My voice came calm and weird.

" No, it's my fault. I am the cause why you stormed out.", she cried. Her voice muffled by her sobs.

I look at the wall, then to the watch mounted in it. It's already 12 midnight.

Her sob began to subside. I take her chin so she was facing me.

"You need to sleep. Look at your bags", I touch her eye bags then chuckle.

This hospital bed is quite huge for one person. I pat the right part of the bed.

She climbed slowly, taking her Toms off.

I stretched my free arm and hug her tight. Her head in my chest.

"Everything will be alright, Julie"

She nodded as she nuzzled further to me.

It feels warmer. It's comforting and fulfilling at the same time.

One day I can't even look at her. I always go away when she wants to talk. Now she's here, right beside me.

I hugged her tight. I don't want to end this. I don't want her away from me.

But I know in the morning she'll be with Louis...
