~ Niall's P.O.V. ~
"Where is she?" I asked again.
I swear to God, you could have dropped a pin and that would have been heard clearly.
"Someone answer me!" I yelled. "Where is she?"
Liam walked next to me and leaned over. "Niall, we don't know."
I scoffed. "What do you mean you don't know? She's at the house. Go get her! Please, I need to see her."
The lads looked at each other wearily. No one spoke. "Is anyone going to answer my question?" I turned my attention to Eleanor. "You're her best friend, do you know where Juli is?"
She lowered her head slowly. And almost in the smallest whisper, she said, "She left."
My head rested back on my pillow. "Someone please tell me she's just not here. That she's just at home." When no one answered, I think it finally sunk in.
Juli was really gone. I forced back a tear. "What happened?"
And then she explained everything. I guess Allie tricked me into believing that Juli was a con-artist. I was mad at Allie for doing that, but nothing could match the anger I had for myself.
This time, I didn't hold anything back. the tears streamed down my cheeks, leaving stains as they fell. "I hate myself." I muttered under my breath.
"Hey, don't sweat it. It'll be ok in the-" Zayn started saying.
"No. I have to get her back. When can I get out of here?" I nearly yelled.
"The doctor is saying you can go home as soon as your head scans come in." Harry replied.
"Well what's taking them so damn long?" I asked. "This is all my fault. I have to find her! I can't live without my Jule." After I said the last part, I lost it again.
I put my forehead in my palms and sobbed until I thought that I would cry out everything inside of me. Someone came next to me and rubbed circles into my back, but I didn't even look up to see who it was.
I'm not even sure how long I stayed like that. But at one point, I heard a deep, raspy voice coming from the door and looked up. It was my doctor.
"Hello, Mr. Horan. I got the- Oh my goodness, are you alright?" He rushed to my bedside.
I wiped under my eyes. "Yes, I'm dandy." I lied. "You were saying?"
"Are you sure you're alright?" He asked again.
I nodded. "Yes."
"Well, I just want to be sure you're not in any pain."
Pain in my heart. I felt like saying.
"Really, I'm good."
"Okay. Well I was saying... You're tests actually came back very well. If you want, you just need to sign a few papers and we can get you out of here."
My eyes widened. "Yes! Thank god."
Harry laughed. I forgot the lads stayed in here. "Well, lets get you home."
"Just take it easy. I know you're on a little break right now, but when you do start getting back into concert mode, make sure you get your footing in those jumps." Doctor looked up at the lads. "When do you begin your tour?"
"I believe late summer." Louis said. "We start in Toronto."
(I know the tour begins in April, but I am referring to the North American leg. So don't confuse that with the actual tour date. ~Maddie)
