Limitless (Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 6

(A/N: Here is the second update that I promised ;-) )

Niall’s POV

It’s been three days since that awful night and Mia still isn’t awake yet, the nurse says that she has been given a lot of a powerful drug. I haven’t slept at all since that night and I’ve spent my days at the hospital with her, even though her parents were called back early because of what happened, they still let me stay at the hospital during the day because they can see how much I care for their daughter because I don’t just care about her, I love her more than anything. I don’t care if people think that it is too soon to feel like that, it’s how I feel and I can’t help that right? I haven’t been able to stop replaying the best and worst day of my life in my head. All I can see is her still body lying on the sofa in her living room, I’m just grateful that we managed to get to her before anything even worse could happen to her.

I am sat in the uncomfortable hospital and then it happened, what I had been waiting for finally happened…

Mia’s POV

The first thing that I’m aware of when I wake up is the huge headache that I have. But I convince myself that it’s probably better if I get up and take some paracetamol, I had the worst nightmare where I was drugged by these two huge guys…as soon as I pry my eyes open I know that it wasn’t a dream and I want to be sick but my stomach feels too empty. The sight that greets me when I open my eyes is a rather boring, grey hospital room…but before my unkind thoughts towards the room can continue, I notice someone sitting or rather sleeping in an uncomfortable looking chair and I try to call out to him. Niall! I want to shout but all that comes out is a croak which makes it obvious that I have been asleep for a long time and my voice feels under used and dry. But that doesn’t matter because the cough makes him wake up and he dashes over to the bed.

“Oh thank the Lord that you are alright, I have been so worried, and knowing that what happened was all my fault, I should never have left you that night I should have told my dad that I was going to have dinner with you instead, then none of this would have happened, can you ever forgive me??” He pleads, I can see the tears glistening in his eyes, but I don’t even need to consider any of what he just said, and before he can say anymore I pull him to me and kiss him.

“It’s going to be ok.” I whisper to him, and his tears begin to fall, but I know that they are tears of relief and joy, and I move my thumbs to catch them on both of his cheeks. He appears to be too over whelmed by happiness to say anything so he just hugs me and kisses me on the forehead before whispering.

“Thank the heavens, I don’t know what I would have done if you hadn’t been alright.” There’s nothing in this world that can wipe the smile off my face. After staring into each other’s eyes for a while, he says, “I should probably go and get the nurse.”

“What? Why? Can’t you just stay with my until the nurse comes to check up on me, I don’t really want to be alone.” I admit, after what has happened I don’t think that I will ever be able to live alone, I would rather live with my parents for the rest of my life. And I know that I’m safe in the hospital and it’s stupid to be scared but I really don’t want him to go. I love him. Wait what? Do I mean that?...Yes, I think that I do. After looking deep into my eyes he says.

“Alright, I’ll stay with you, but only because I don’t want you to feel scared and the fact that I’ve missed you so much over the past three days. But I am going to ring your mum since she gave me her number so that I could contact her if you woke up while she wasn’t here.” Three days… “Did you just say that I’ve been asleep for three whole days???” I ask with my still dry throat.

“Yeah…here have some water.” He says while pouring me a glass out of a grey jug and into a plastic cup and handing it to me, is everything in this place grey? He comes and sits down on my bed and looks at me with those gorgeous blue eyes of his.
