Lost in another world...

Chapter 26

*Helen POV*

We finally reached the hospital and the boys and I ran into the emergency room. "Zayn Malik" Liam told the nurse. "Room 123" We ran to the room and opened the door. Zayn was laying on the bed unconscious with gauze wrapped around his entire head and nose. Sara was standing next to him biting her nails. I sighed a breath of relief. I came up to her and hugged her. "Thank God" I whispered hugging her tight. Sara began sobbing in my chest. "It's okay, it'll all be okay" I said patting her head. Sara's sobbing got louder. "What did the doctor say?" Louis said coming to console Sara. "He has a broken nose and jaw" Sara said still crying. "It's all my fault! I'm so sorry! I never meant for this to happen!" Sara said crying into my chest again. "It's okay its not your fault! You didn't do anything" Louis said. He took her into his arms. Liam and Niall went over to Zayn's bedside. I bit my lip. As much as I hated Zayn I never wanted to see him like this. I wanted him to- well be alive. Just then the doctor came in. "How is he doctor?" Liam asked. "Just a broken nose and jaw. The good news is he should regain consciousness by tomorrow morning, but the bad news is he has to stay at the hospital for a few days. Now if you'll excuse us, we need to run some more tests. You may come back within an hour" we all nodded and made our way outside into the waiting area. We all sat down. Sara had finally stopped crying and was laying with her head on my chest. She was exhausted, we all were.

*1 hour later*

The doctor had finally finished and we were allowed to go back inside Zayn's room. "You have about an hour before visiting hours are over" The nurse told us. I looked at the clock above Zayn's bed it was 8pm. I only had an hour left to visit Harry. I needed to know how he was. "I'll be back" I told Sara. "Where are you going?" she asked. I left without telling her. "Hi where can I see Harry Styles" I asked the nurse. "He's been moved to the third floor room 303" I made my way up the stairs and to Harry's room. My heart began to race. I remembered our last meeting no one has seen me cry before and for a second I felt vulnerable around Harry. But I felt guilty about not seeing him again and I knew if I didn't it would bother me. I opened the door to Harry's room. His bed was empty, only a ruffled up sheet in harry's place. I looked around for him but couldn't find him, he must be in the bathroom. I sat down on the chair next his bed, waiting for him to come out. Just then the bathroom door opened and I got up out the chair, it was Harry. He was wearing the same hospital night gown I left him in. His green eyes looking tired and his hair all messed up. He looked at me surprised. "Helen?" He asked. I gave him a half smile. "What are you doing here?" He asked still standing. "I- uh- came to see how you were doing" I said stuttering. Just then he moaned in pain holding the sides of his stomach. "Harry!" I said running to his side. I put his arm around my shoulder and helped him towards the bed. "Do you want me to call the nurse?" I asked laying him down. He nodded a no. "I'll be fine, just pass me those pills on the table with the water please" I helped him sit up and handed him his medicine. I took the water and geared it towards his mouth. I sat down on his bed next him. His eyes looking into mine. He grabbed onto my hand and shifted the glass up finishing the water. He looked into my eyes still holding onto my hand with the glass. My heart was racing, my breathing getting hard. He was making me delusional. I looked away and he let go of my hand. I placed it on the table and sat back down on his bed. We sat in silence, not knowing what to say. "Why didn't you come?" He finally said breaking the silence. I looked at him not knowing how to respond. "I-uh got busy" I said lying. I wanted to come see him but I just couldn't. "I was waiting for you" Harry whispered. I looked at him and my cheeks burned. It was like his eyes were staring into my soul. He took my hand into his, and pulled me closer. Our lips inches away from each other. He looked down at my lips and back to my eyes. Just then my phone began to ring, ruining the moment. It was Sara. I looked back at Harry. "Stay" he whispered. I picked up my phone, "Helen, Liam and Niall are about to leave. Where are you?" Sara asked. I looked over at Harry. "Are you not going with them?" I asked hoping to divert the conversation. "Uh no I'm not. Louis and I are gonna stay with Zayn" I looked over at Harry wondering if I should stay. He looked at me with sad but empty eyes. "I'm staying" I said turning off my phone. He smiled.
