Who did this? I'm so confused right now. Gosh. I should've kept it to myself. This is all my fault. It's always my fault for bad things. Jesus. I don't know what I'm gonna do now.
"Hey Emily! Look at what i fou-what happened?!" I turn around to Autumn, wide eyed, mouth open, and a shirt of some sort falling from her hands.
"Is he okay?"
"I don't know. I heard crashing and came down to this."
"Oh. We need to get the other boys down here to help with this. I don't know what else to do. We could call the police or the ambulance?"
"No. Just get the boys. And Courtney. She might help. I don't know. Just don't call anyone."
"Okay" she turned around and hurried up the stairs. In a matter of seconds the boys were in here and asking questions, trying to help Ashton up.
"What happened?! Who did this?!" Is all i kept hearing. I couldn't speak. I just couldn't speak. Everything started to go blurry and the noise was in and out like a television trying to get signal. I felt dizzy. Like i was about to pass out any minute.
"Emily. Please answer. Did Niall do this? Did Ashton do it himself?" Harry asked me, trying to speak calm.
"I, i don't know. I just came down here after I heard crashes. I think Niall punched Ashton and Ashton got knocked out. Its all my fault. It's all my fault."
"No no no. No it's not. You didn't do anything. This isn't because of you."
"Yes it is! It's my fault!"
"Emily! Calm down! No it's not!"
"Yes! Yes yes yes yes YES!"
Courtney came over to me and grabbed my shoulders.
"No it is not." I'm hot. Too hot. It's hot in here. I need fresh air. I need to go outside. I need to speak to Niall. Wait. Niall. Where's Niall? Wheres Niall?!
"Where's Niall?!" my thoughts came out of my mouth before I could stop them. Everyone froze and turned to me. I walk towards the front door. Maybe he went outside.
"Should I stop her?" I hear Michael's voice ask.
"No. Just let her go. She needs some air. And we need to get Ashton cleaned up and woke up." Zayn said as i open the door. It feels so much better out here. There's a slight breeze but feels wonderful. Before i get caught up in how nice it feels out, i need to find Niall.
"Niall? Niall? Are you out here?" I call loud but not loud enough to wake up neighbors.
"Emily?" i hear a faint voice coming from a hammock.
"Niall. Thank god i found you. We, i need to talk. I'm so sorry for this. I should've kept it to myself. I didnt know this would happen. I'm so sorry."
"It's okay. It's not your fault."
"Yes it is." i almost laugh because of how many times they've all said that.
"Don't blame yourself for something I did. And Ashton. That little fucker. I'm gonna beat his ass again when he wakes up.No. I will right now." He said getting up. Ugh.
"No! Stop Niall. Don't do that."
"Why? Why shouldn't I? Do you care about him? Did you like what he did to you? Is that why?"
"No! Of course it's not! I don't give a shit about him! But you don't need to beat him up again. It's not worth it. He's not worth it. If, if you do then..."
"Then what?"
"Then I'll leave."
"Please Emily. You won't leave." he says harshly but laughs at himself as he pushes me past me.
"Yes I will. Ill have Liam drop me off at a hotel or something."
"Go ahead! Do it! I don't care. It's not like you love me.."
What?
"What?"
"You heard me."
"Are you drunk?"
"Maybe I am!"
"Wether you are drunk or not, don't go in that house and lay a finger on any of them. You've already hurt him enough. You broke every breakable thing in his living room and kitchen you don't need to beat him up again. I don't want you to. And what makes you think i don't love you? I love you Niall. I can't go a day without you. I know i said i could but that was a while ago. We've gotten closer after that. I don't want to miss a day without you. Why are you saying i don't love you? I do. I really do. Don't ever think i don't. Ill do any thing in the world to prove that i do. And if you love me then you won't go in there and touch Ashton. Please. I love you to the moon and back. All the way around the world. Up to the very last star and back."
I can't say anything else. The tears stopped me. They're streaming down my face and I can't stop them.
"I love you Emily. I really do too. I don't know what I was saying. Sorry." I ran into his arms and hugged him like it was the last day of me life. I couldn't let go. I wouldn't. It felt like if i did, he would disappear into thin air.
"It's okay. Promise me you wont?"
"Promise. And don't leave me. Ever." He demands but begs at the same time.
"I think you owe someone an apology." I say as i look up at him in the moonlight. I smile as he wipes my tears off with his thumb.
"I already told you i was sorry."
"Niall!"
"What?"
"You know who."
"Fine." He grumbles and walks up to the door, leaving me standing alone in the yard.
"Come on babe." he laughs an i run to him. He puts his fingers between mine and i stand on my toes to kiss him on the cheek.
He opens the door and everyone is quiet. I spot Michael wiping off Ashton's face as Liam gets a ice pack for Ashton. The rest are scattered around the room just staring.
Awkward.
Niall walks in with me behind him. He tries to walk pass them but i clear my throat and nudge his side. I see him glare so i smile just to tease.
"I'm...I'm sorry for everything." He says almost too quiet for me to hear.
"It's fine mate. I needed it." Ashton says getting up. I feel the tension between them as Ashton gets closer.
