So a week has passed and Sarah has slowly started to get worse. She spends almost every minute of the day hidden in her room only ever coming out when Harry starts to shout at her or when one of us physically pull her from the room. Ever since the night she came home she has refused to sleep by herself in the dark so she will either sneak into Harrys liams or my room during the night and crawl into  our beds but she wont go anywhere near Niall or zayn.I can tell that she is scared but she should know that they would never try and hurt her. I guess she has accepted Liam because he is like a father figure to all of us and also often stops Harry boiling over and getting angry at her when she refuses to listen to him which has been almost all the time recently.

Harry has been so stressed out since Sarah came home. He is constantly checking to make she she is ok and doesn't do anything stupid again. We all saw her arms at the hospital. The faded lines that were permentally drawn on her pale skin. Why did she do it? Why would she even try to  hurt her self. Ever since the accident my feeling for Sarah have only been growing stronger and stronger but I cant do anything about them not when she is so vulnerable and scared but seeing her this weak is killing me. All i want to do is let her know that I will protect her and that she doesn't have to worry about getting hurt again. She still refuses to talk about it to us but hopefully in time she'll open up because at the moment Harry is blaming himself and it is slowly tearing him up inside.

"Sarah dinners ready, Please come down now" Liam called to sarah but like usual no reply. I walk into the kitchen and see that all the boys are either seated or bringing over plates. 

'Sarah come down here now" Harry yelled up to her but still no reply. So before Harry could put down the dinner he was carrying I turned and went up the stairs to get her my self. Harry needed a break. I hated seeing him so worked up all the time. I arrived at her door and twisted the handle only too find it locked. Where had she found the key? I smiled at her feeble attempt to stop us getting in but i had the advantage. I cross the hall to the linen press that contained the power box for the house and flipped the switch for her room, turning of her supply of electricity and made my way back to her locked door. 5... 4.... 3.... 2...1.....  and just as  i had expected she came flying out and into my arms almost in tears.

"Im sorry Sarah, I know what I did was a little mean" I said looking down at her. She tore her head away from me and gave me a look " A little mean you know i don't like the dark, You ass.." But before she could finish the word coming from her mouth my hand stopped it. 

"Please don't Sarah none of us want to fight this evening. I know you don't want to eat but please just for one night don't annoy Harry. He is under a lot of pressure and is worried about you, we all are. so please just drop the attitude and come downstairs. You know how much swearing annoys Liam."  I tell he looking straight into her eyes.

She drops her gaze to the floor and nods her head. Thank the Lord. This is the first time Sarah has actually paid any attention to what any of us had said. I smiled and press my lips onto her head and hugged her. "Thank you, Sarah" I whisper before lifting her up onto my shoulders and began descending the stairs whist tickling her feet.

"HAHAHHAHAH, Stop louis, Please. Im begging you, ahahahah I . Cant . Breath, ahahahah LOUIS STOP" she giggled as we entered the kitchen. I eventually stopped and set her down in her seat between me and Harry. Everybody was staring at us in shock. I knew what they were shocked about too but i didn't want to make Sarah feel uncomfortable so i cleared my throat and the boys eyes quickly and started into a whole knew conversation.

They hadn't heard her laugh like that since the night of the accident and tonight Sarah seemed to be back to normal. She didn't sit in silence and refuse to eat like every other night of the week instead, She laughed at all the stupid Stories Niall told, She had a conversation with zayn about which was flavour of ice-cream was better and even swapped Liams fork for a spoon which resulted in him screaming and everybody else laughing. She had some of that sparkle back in her big green eyes and when she smiled it nobody could help smiling back. We all knew she was still having difficulty trying to eat the small amount of dinner Liam had gave her but we all ate slowly making sure none of us finished before her allowing her plenty of time to finish which she did. I knew Harry was amazed at the transformation, we all were, but him especially. He looked over at me and mouthed a silent " Thank you " to me.
