"OPEN THE DOOR!" I screamed as I pounded on it. "PLEASE! OPEN THE-"

            The door flew open and a woman appeared with a shocked looke on her face. "What on earth-"

            "Please help me!" I cried. "Please-" My eyes closed as my knees gave out and then everything went black again.

            "Need anything, Miss?" The nurse asked she came into the room.

            "No thank you." I replied politely. It's not like she could give me what I wanted anyway.

            My body still felt stiff all over. The police had came and went, staying long enough to ask their questions, collect their evidence, and be on their way.

            They offered me the use of a phone but I couldn't remember any of the numbers...apart from my mom's but she was too far away.

            "Don't worry, love." An officer assured me. "We'll get it all sorted."

            I had just finished lunch...surprisingly I had enough of an appetite to eat something...when I heard fumbling about in the hallway.

            The door flew open and nearly hit the wall when it swung.

            "Blue?!" He exclaimed as he ran over to the bed and wrapped his arms around me. "Thank God you're alright."

            I broke down as I sobbed into his chest and started to shiver.

            "Shh! It's okay. You're fuckin' freezin'!" He took his coat off and draped it over my shoulders. "There. That's better, yeah?"

            A car waited for us outside. A cold, misty rain waited for us as well. And cameras and journos.

            Liam gave me his sunglasses to hide the bruise on my right eye. He did his best to walk between me and the photographers as we made our way to the car.

            He ushered me into it and was about to get in after me when somebody said something.

            "Alright, Liam." A man said. "How's Jules?"

            "She's alright, mate." Liam replied as he leaned on the side of the car and its door. "Ready to fuckin' go home."

            "Is she-"

            "I really can't be arsed to answer your questions right now." He bent down to get in the car.

            "Have you any idea how-"

            "No I don't." Liam cut him off again as he stood back up properly. "But when I do find out who's put her up in this Scouse shithole, they'll be fuckin' sorry!"

            The crowd of vultures swarmed even more trying to get another question in.

            But Liam ignored them all and quickly got inside the car, slamming the door shut with a loud thud.

            The car ride was quiet with Liam wrapping his arms tight around me. I felt him shiver a little. I'm sure he was cold. All he had on was a t-shirt and jeans but he refused to take his coat back from me.

            The rain hadn't stopped when we got to London. It was like it followed us the whole way down. Drizzling and freezing, keeping the sky that gloomy gray.

            We went straight to bed to rest away the afternoon. Liam had gone into the bathroom while I got in bed.

            "What's this then?" He asked after he came back out. "We switchin' sides now?"
