Chapter 25

Lexie's POV:

My heart was beating so fast that my chest actually hurt. Niall told that he would tell me everything I wanted to know. I've got so many questions, but would he answer them truthfully or was it just something he said so I would come to my flat and he could bother and hurt me some more?

I rushed up the stairs to my flat with by heart now beating in my throat. I reached the door and yanked it open to see Niall sitting on the couch. His head snapped up and he looked at me nervous? I closed the door shut with my foot, still having eye contact with Niall. I let my purse slid down to the floor and walked towards the couch, to join him. 

"How did you get in?" I asked him and he just rolled his eyes. Okay, he was not going to tell me. I did't bother to push it any further.

"So are you going to tell me?" I asked and he knew what I was referring to. He took a few deep breaths before he turned his body towards me.

"What do you want to know?" He asked and I rolled my eyes. Really?

"Why do you visit the hospital?" I asked him and then his beautiful blue eyes were glossy but his face expression was frozen like a stone. 

"When I was younger, I had a little sister. Her name was Lillie. She was five years old, she was gorgeous and wherever you went you could hear her little giggles. Blond hair and the most piercing blue eyes ever." He said and I smiled. The way he described her amazed me. But he said that he had a sister. I furrowed my eyebrows.

"W-what to you mean by 'had' ?" I stammered and moved closer to him.

"She had cancer. She died that same year that they found out that she had got the disease. It was horrible but she never stopped laughing. She kept on living and fighting everyday. Lillie was a very bright kid for her age. She and I had a really special bond. And that they when she passed, we were there. My mum, our big brother Greg, and the rest of the family including me. And just as she took her last breaths she mentioned me to bend my head down over her hospital bed so she could say something. I  will never forget what she said to me:

"You and me against the world."  Her little voice stated and I grabbed her hand and smiled at her. Then she took her final breath. I watched her as I saw her baby blue eyes for the last time and then they closed forever. I had lost her." He said and my now my eyes were filled with tears and they were pouring down my cheeks.

Niall's eyes were just red and glossy but not a single tear left his eyes. I had also lost some people that I loved, my parents so I knew the pain that he was carrying with him. I pulled him in for a hug and he squeezed me tight and buried his head in the crook of my neck. I stroke his hair with one of my hands.

"Im here." Was all I said. I didn't know what to say. I was empty for words. I wanted him to tell him that it would get better because it does, but I don't want to lie to him. The pain gets easier but it will always be there. We sat there hugging each other and all I could think about was how much he needed someone now and I was lucky that that 'someone' was me.
