*Katie's POV*

My eyes slowly opened as I felt the pain shoot up my whole body. I winced and closed my eyes, hoping for it to disappear.

It didn't.

I glanced over to my side to see a tanned body, Calum's body. He was sitting awake and widened his eyes as he saw me.

"Hey" He whispered.

"Hi" I smiled.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm alright" I shrugged, "I just think I need a bath."

"I'll go run the water for you" Calum said as he shot up and went into my bathroom as I heard the sound of water hitting the tub.

----

After listening to Calum sit outside my bathroom door telling me that he was still there and I was alright, I was now sat at the table talking to Joy and the police about what had happened.

After answering the same questions several times, I stood up from the table with the police to show them to the door.

"Thank you for being so patient and don't worry we won't let this happen again" One man said as he placed a hand on my shoulder smiling sympathetically.

I hated this, I hated people feeling sorry for me.

I shot a quick smile back and closed the door as I went upstairs. I found myself walking to Calum's door and knocking on it then opening.

"Hey" He smiled as he sat up on his bed.

"Hi" I smiled back as I closed the door behind me.

"How was that?" He said as he moved along his bed slightly so I could join him.

"It was alright" I shrugged as I grabbed a pillow and began to hug it.

"Do you wanna talk about it?"

"Nah, I'm done talking, lets go out or something" I looked towards him.

"Alright sure, I'm gonna just tell the guys I can't make it to band pract-"

"No, no, no go to band practise, can I watch?" I loved watching the boys practise, it felt like I was getting my own private concert.

"We can practise anyday, don't you want to go out and do something?" Calum asked.

"No, I want to watch you" I smiled.

"Alright, fine" He laughed and stood up holding his hand out to help me.

----

We arrived at Michael's house to practise and walked in to find them all in the kitchen talking to one another.

"Katie!" Michael shouted, noticing me first as he came over to hug me. I hugged back, and done the same for Luke and Ashton.

We talked about usual things which was good because I didn't have to talk about me.

The guys knew I didn't like sympathy.

I set up the camera for the boys to record as they decided what song to cover.

"Wait, what about Gotta Get Out?" Ashton suggested as the boys all mumbled a response.

I furrowed my eyebrows and looked up at them, I hadn't heard of that song before, "Who sings that?"

"Us" Calum chuckled.

"We wrote it like last week" Michael added.

"Ohhh, do that!" I said getting excited, I hadn't heard them sing an original before.
