Chapter Ten
Tick tock goes the clock.
It ticks and it tocks
Taunting the person destined to forever listen to the ticking clock.
Tick tock
Tick
Tock.
It's like a bomb, waiting to go off.
Tick
Tock
Tick
Tock.
Goes the clock
Waiting for the bomb to pop.
Tick tock goes the clock, waiting for the heart to stop.
Tick
Tock
Tick to the
Fucking tock
Why won't my heart stop?
Is it tuned to the obsessive ticking and tocking?
So should it not stop when the ticking and tocking stops?
Or is it doomed to listen to the ticking and the tocking of the ticking clock forever?
Tick tock
Goes the clock
It ticks and it tocks....
Till the bomb finally drops.
Tick tock
The truth will soon come out.
Tick tock.
Maybe then my heart will stop....

The clock on the wall was taunting me, counting the minutes that soon turned into hours since Harry left...
Why wasn't he back yet?
Didn't he promise he'd be back?
Maybe he left again... and if I'm lucky... he won't be coming back.
That still makes me upset though... I wanted him to come back.
He had to come back.
For whether or not I wanted to believe it... He was the only one who can fix me.... and I'm in desperate need of fixing.
"Would you like some water Mr. Horan?" One of the nurses asked, and I had learned that her name was Laura. She was in her twenties with a four year old daughter... Don't judge me...We've had a lot of time to talk. Laura didn't have a husband, and was raising Heather by herself.
"You know Niall... You're lucky to have him."
"Who?" I asked, taking a sip of the water she'd set on the table.
"Mr. Styles. He was really worried about you... He wouldn't leave your side for even second when you were asleep." I spit out my water, probably preforming a classical spit take...
"Harry doesn't care about me Laura. It's quite the opposite if I'm honest."
"I think you're mistaken Niall... He wouldn't have stayed if he didn't care."
"He didn't stay Laura... He did what he does best.... He left."

Harry (unfortunately) did come back. I was sitting on my hospital bed, listening to that awful clock when he came in. He looked like he hadn't slept all night, which I guess was okay... I didn't either
