Together [Sequel to Love Actually]

Chapter 36

Harry P.O.V.

I walked into the other room with the boys. They were all sitting on the couch, and I joined them. I ran my fingers through my hair; all of this was really stressing me out.

"Harry, she'll be fine." Liam said soothingly.

"I know, but the way her body was convulsing like that, it really freaked me out. None of this ever would have happened if I would have listened to her, and let her explain what was going on. I left, and I didn't even bring my phone." I said.

"Harry, stop feeling bad over it. It's over and done with, and she's fine." Niall said.

I nodded slowly, and laid my head back against the couch. I had a major headache, and I wanted to go to sleep, but whenever I closed my eyes, I would see Alana's crumpled figure on the side of the street, just waiting cold and alone.

I sat up, and I could feel all the boys' eyes on me.

"What?" I asked softly.

"You look a mess." Niall said bluntly.

"I am a mess." I stated.

"So like go talk to Scarlet, see if she's okay, see what's going on." Louis said.

I nodded, and got up from the couch. I walked to where Scarlet was lying, and I placed a hand gently on her head. She stirred a little, but didn't wake up. I rubbed my hand through her hair over and over. Her face was really pale, and her body was freezing. She looked lifeless as she slept.

I gently pulled her out of the bunk, and into my arms on the floor. I don't know why, but I just wanted to be able to feel her breathing, and know that she was still here. I held her head close to my chest, and sang quietly into her ear. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and I rubbed her back gently.

After about a half hour, her eyes fluttered open, and she looked at me.

"Hey baby." I whispered.

"Hi." She croaked.

I gave her a weak smile.

"How are you feeling?" I asked.

"Cold, and a bit thirsty." She said.

I lifted her off the ground, and carried her onto the couch where all the boys were still hanging out.

"Will you sit with her, while I go get her some water?" I said to Liam.

Liam nodded, and I laid Scarlet is his lap. I walked off to the fridge, and grabbed Scarlet a bottle of water, and then returned to her with it quickly.

I pulled her off of Liam, and sat her back in my lap, and she drank the water slowly.

Alana P.O.V.

I rested my head back, onto Harry's shoulder, and closed my eyes. The light in the room was giving me a headache, and I didn't know what to do.

"You feel okay?" Louis asked me.

I shrugged a little.

"Harry, why did you bring her out here? She needs to go rest." Louis said.

"I don't know." Harry mumbled.

"That was a really dumb thing to do." Niall added.

Harry looked kind of sad.

"I didn't want to leave her alone." Harry said.

"Well, you should have stayed in bed with her." Louis stated.

"I wasn't thinking." Harry said.

"Obviously." Niall muttered.
