Love Me or Love Me Not (a 1D Love Story)

Chapter 3

NIALL POV

After Grace had said she hated me I had ran out. I didn't want anyone to see me crying, I tried not to cry, but I can't handle hate. It's to much for me. I had to get far away from everyone. I needed to go calm down. I know it isn't safe for me to be running through London alone, especially since I'm not paying attention to my surroundings at all, but I just had to get far away. I went to my favorite place, Nando's. I ordered a bunch of food and started eating, not even hate could ruin my appetite. I hoped the other lads didn't look for me, coming here was probably a mistake, considering Zayn would look here first. I don't really care though, I wanted food. I was always hungry, especially when I'm sad, food cheers me up. I feel the tears start streaming down my face, I wish I knew why Grace hated me, what had I done to her? I had to stop eating, I was holding back a good amount of my tears, and I couldn't eat without almost choking. Why did I care so much about Grace's opinion anyways? So what if she hates me. Other girls love me, they have posters and everything. Why did one snobby girls opinion hurt so much?!? Calm down Niall, so what if she hates you? Calm down. I tell myself over and over. I just wanted to be a person who doesn't care about other people's opinion, but I just don't think I am. Harry always says that but I honestly thinks he handles it better than me. I was off in my own world thinking about why people hate me when suddenly I feel a knife blade pushing lightly on my throat. I was the only one in this section of the restaurant, so no one was there to help me. Behind me I heard an icy voice.

"If you move or call for help in any way, I will slit your throat, and leave no evidence that it was me. Do you understand....pretty boy?" the girl behind me whispered to me. I nod quickly.

"Looks like you disobeyed me, I told you not to move. Looks like it's your time to die. I'm not going to kill you immediately, lets have a little fun first." she says, slowly removing the blade from my throat. She then slowly cut into my shoulder quite deep, I didn't dare cry out in pain, instead I quietly whimpered. I felt her do the same to the other shoulder. I then heard the girl scream and heard the knife blade hit the ground. When someone grabbed my shoulder I flinched, and started to cry loudly. The girl was going to kill me for sure now. I put my face in my hands and shook all over.

LIAM POV

I was running through London like a madman. I had to find Niall, fast. I heard my phone buzz and I looked down to see that it was Zayn.

ZAYN to LIAM

Get to Nando's fast. I found Niall but I need your help. FAST!!!

I flagged a taxi and told them to go to Nando's as fast as they could. Harry was panicking, honestly I was too, but I was trying to stay calm. I gently rubbed Harry's back. I then texted Louis.

LIAM to LOUIS

Zayn and Grace found Niall, something is seriously wrong though. I need you and Jaz to get to Nando's as fast as you can!!! Be prepared to calm Harry down. We don't want him having a panic attack.

LOUIS to LIAM

We will be there soon. DO NOT EVEN LET HARRY GO INSIDE UNTIL I GET THERE!!!

I continued to calm Harry, I was glad to see Louis and Jaz jump out of a cab just as we pulled up.

LOUIS POV

Harry was close to a panic attack when he got out. I ran to him and slowly rubbed his back. Liam was already inside and so was Jaz. Harry and I would wait until things calmed down a little before we entered. I could hear Grace and Jaz screaming, along with another female voice. I wondered what had happened. Harry had only gotten worse since we got here. He had panic attacks every now and then, often they were quite bad. I rubbed his back and hoped that Niall was okay.

ZAYN POV

Grace and I had gone straight to Nando's to find Nialler. I saw the back of his head and was about to go to him when a random girl started talking to him, I saw Grace tense when the girl appeared. I thought that the mystery girl was just talking to him, that is until I saw her start cutting his shoulder. I started to run out to him, but Grace grabbed me. "Wait" she whispered. I watched as she cut his other shoulder. Grace then whispered something else to me. "When she pulls the knife away from his shoulder, run and tackle her" she said. When I saw the knife blade move away, I did as Grace had commanded me. I heard the girl scream and the knife blade hit the floor, I then placed my hands on Niall's shoulders. He burst into tears and started to shake. "It's okay Niall, it's me its Zayn, your okay, calm down." I sat down next to him and pulled him close. He cried hard onto my shoulder. I texted Liam and hoped he would get here soon.

GRACE POV

When I saw Izzy hurting Niall, I got mad. Yea, I know I hate one direction but still. I didn't want to kill them. Not really. Maybe it was the fact that I realized they were just normal guys. Still, I do hate them. Soon Jaz got there and boy was she mad. She was also yelling at Izzy.

"What do you think your doing!" I scream.

"Killing 1/5 of a retarded boy band. What does it look like?!?" Izzy screams.

"It looks like you are trying to get arrested!" Jaz replies.

"At least I could rot in prison knowing that the world was free from 1D!" She says, quieting down.

"I seriously wonder how you are not in a mental hospital!" I scream. Izzy flinches, that is her worst fear. Foam rooms. I see the fear in her eyes.

"I'd rather rot in prison" Izzy says quietly.

"You probably will, I'll make a deal. You run before anyone else sees you and we will act like none of this ever happened" Zayn says quickly and quietly. I see Izzy nod and run out the back entrance. I turn my full attention to Niall.

"I'm so sorry, I should have never said that" I say quietly.

"It's okay, I-I'm used to h-hate." He says through tears. Liam has now come in and is putting pressure on the cuts.

"Okay, yay, apologies. Could we continue this later! Niall is losing way to much blood, I need someone to come up with a believable story of how he got these cuts and then we need to get to a hospital!" Liam says. I can see how pale Niall is and know that Liam is right.

"I'll come up with a lie on the way. Someone is going to have to carry him!" I scream, I am a good liar, or at least I think I am. Without hesitating Zayn picks Niall up bridal style, runs outside and flags a cab. Louis is now dragging Harry after us and we all jump in.

"We need to get to a hospital, fast!" Zayn yells to the driver. He drives off quickly towards the hospital.

NIALL POV

I feel Zayn pick me up and carry me into a cab. I lay my head against him and feel him stroking my hair. Just then, everything goes black.
