*Ellie POV*
I'm lying here wondering how my future is going to turn out. Niall is lying next to me in my hospital bed with his arms wrapped tightly around my waist. I have lung cancer, and no I have never smoked in my life. I guess I'm just unlucky. Well people may say that I am unlucky, but really I am the luckiest girl in the world. I have a caring family, 4 best friends, and an amazing boyfriend of 3 years who just happens to be Niall Horan.
I lay in the comfortable silence in Niall's strong embrace until a nurse comes in.
"Hello Ellie, how are you feeling?" She asks cheerfully, too cheerfully to be in a hospital.
"Fine thanks" I respond emotionlessly, she nods in approval.
"Mr. Horan could you leave the room for a moment please, I need to talk to Ellie alone?" She asks Niall nods and turns to me.
"I'll be right outside love" he says before kissing my forehead softly and leaving. I turn to face the nurse as well as I can in the bed.
"So, Ellie you will be pleased to know that we have a lung donor for you" She says smiling. Shock and happiness hits me at the same time. I smile so much I swear my face it going to break.
"Who is it?" I ask.
"The person wishes to remain anonymous" She says with a small smile. I return it and ask for Niall to come back in. He wanders in and sits next to me again, holding both of my small hands in his.
"They found me a donor Niall! I will finally be able to leave this wretched hospital bed and live a normal life with you" I say dreamily, imagining Niall and I married with children running around the house. Little kids with brown hair and Niall's bright blue eyes.
"That's great Princess!" Niall exclaims. "When are you getting the transplant?" He asks.
"Tomorrow" I say with a smile. A single tear slips down his cheek; I wipe it away with my thumb.
"What's wrong Nialler?" I ask, worried.
"Oh, nothing. I'm just so happy for you, you'll be able to leave this hell hole" he says with a smile.
We spent the rest of the say huddled in each other's arms, thinking about the day to come.
*Next morning*
"EllieBear!! We heard the news!!" Louis exclaims as he and the other boys bound into the room. They all squish Niall and I in a classic One Direction group hug.
"Who's the donor?" Liam asks calming down a bit.
"I don't know, the nurse said that he or she wishes to remain anonymous" I answer. Then the nurse walks in again smiling as usual.
"Ellie if you are ready we can begin the transplant soon" She tells me and we all smile in return. "I'll give you guys a minute".
"Bye EllieBear we'll see you later. This time you'll have two proper lungs" Louis exclaims with a smile as he hugs me before stepping back. Harry steps forward and hugs me.
"Be strong in there Kitten, I'll see you when you get out" he says in my ear before pulling away and standing with Lou. Zayn steps forward next and hugs me.
"Good luck love. We'll see you later" he says before pulling me into a hug then standing with the others. Liam is next to step forward.
"Cya love, we'll be waiting for you" he whispers and stand with Lou, Zayn and Haz. The boys seem to understand that Niall and I wanted some time alone, so they turned and left. Niall turned to me and took my hands. Before gently putting his lips on mine. We had been together for 3 years and had kissed billions of times, but the fireworks I got never faded. Our lips moved in synch as he held my small body close to his. After a couple of minutes we pulled apart, and Niall looked deep into my eyes. His blue eyes are always so captivating, no matter how many times I see them. I saw tears brimming in his eyes and his lip beginning to tremble.
