we got to the hospital, we didn’t change our clothes, so everyone was looking at us like we were crazy. Harry lead us to a room where Louis and Liam were laying on beds, connected to IV's and a monitor. Niall and Zayn were sitting in the corner, Niall was crying and Zayn was trying to comfort him. Gwen ran over to him and he jumped us and embraced her tightly. They were both awake, their faces were both badly bruised, Liam's leg was up in a sling and Louis' arm was in a heavy cast. 'oh my god' I whispered, Louis turned his head slightly and our eyes met, I didn’t move. 'what happened?' 'they were going to get groceries and a semi-truck ran a red light and hit them.' harry said, Belle walked over to liam and stared at him, 'I love you' he whimpered, to her. 'I love you too' a tear rolled down her face. 'charlie' Louis whispered, I slowly walked over to the side of bed. Tears were streaming down my face, 'Louis? Are OK?' 'I am now' I laughed and laid my hand on his. 'what are you doing here your going to miss your flight to Rome?' 'that’s not important, whats important is that you get better' I pulled his hand up to my lips and kissed it. My phone buzzed in my pocket, I walked outside of the room and picked up the phone. 'hello?' 'CHARLIE WHERE ARE YOU!' 'im in the hospital' 'shit, are you OK?' 'yes im fine, Liam ans Louis got in a car accident' 'OK well, we missed out flight so were going to have to make the next one' 'and whens that?' 'tomorrow at 3pm' 'OK well our bags are packed, and were staying were until we have to leave so...bye' I hung up the phone so she couldn’t say anything else and went back inside.
I stayed next to Louis' bed side until the nurse came in, 'ma'am' she said sweetly, I looked away from Louis face, he was asleep, along with everyone else in to room, 'do you want some blankets or something?' I smiled, 'I don’t want to be a bother' 'no bother at all' she left the doorway and came back with a few blankets and pillows. 'thank you' I said, 'can I just say im a big fan of yours and your friends.' 'thanks, that’s very kind of you' she smiled and left the room. I put a blanket over Niall and Gwen, and Harry and Zayn who where leaning against each other, and one over Belle who was asleep on the side of Liam's bed. I took the last blanket and wrapped it around myself and fell asleep, Louis hand still in mine.
The sound of the monitor, Zayn, Harry, Niall, Gwen and Belle were gone. I sat up, Louis was still asleep, I put my shoes on and went outside to the lobby where they were talking to a Doctor. Belle looked over at me and signaled to go over to her, I walked over and grabber her hand. 'is everything OK?' I asked, 'yes' the doctor said, 'the boys will be fine, Liam has a broken leg and Louis' wrist is shattered, but they will be OK' belle gripped my hand, and I pulled her in for a hug. 'thank god' she said into my ear with a shaky voice. 'you kids have been here since last night why don’t you go home and freshen up?' 'with all do respect doctor' niall said 'Theirs no way in hell that were leaving this hospital until there better' we turned around and went back into the room, Liam and Louis were up and talking to each other. 'well aren’t you a sight for sore eyes' Louis said. 'im so happy that your OK' he smiled. 'I have to leave to Rome soon' I said. His face went from happy to sad in a matter of seconds. 'oh' 'but lets just enjoy this right now' he puckered his lips, and I kissed them.
2 weeks later.
'home sweet home!' belle said as she dropped our bags on the ground. 'I missed our shitty house!' I said, we all went up stairs, and unpacked out clothes. We went to Europe with 4 bags and came back with 6, 'you know, I like Europe....and the free clothes they give us!' we laughed, 'has anyone talked to the guys lately?' Belle asked, 'yeah I called Niall when we landed' 'how are they doing?' 'he said, they were doing good Liam's still on crunches, but Louis is our of his cast!' 'good, I really miss them' I said, 'yeah me too' 'im Skypeing Liam tonight if you guys wanna say hi?' 'no its fine' we continued to unpack.
I heard Belle and Liam video chatting in the living room downstairs as Gwen and I wrote some lyrics down in one of our journals, Gwen's phone rang. 'its niall, ill be right back.' she jumped off the bed 'hey babe' 'and now im alone' I laid back in my bed and tried to imagine being in Louis' arms. I felt a tear roll down my face, I took my phone off the side table and called Louis, the phone rang and rang, but he didn’t pick up so I left him a voice mail. 'hey lou, its Charlie, just calling to say I miss you, and I love you' I started to cry 'call me back later, OK bye' I sat there In my bed and cried for a few minutes. I don’t know what my deal was, I had a great career, great friends, a loving boyfriend. In times where I felt alone I would go cuddle up with my mom, but I couldn’t now, maybe that’s what i needed...to see my mom. Her birthday was in a few days, I might as well go early to visit her, I called Maggie, she had gotten a lot nicer since we had been in London. 'hey Maggie?' 'hey charlie, are you OK? You sound like you've been crying' 'yeah I have, I need to go home for a while to see my family' 'are you homesick?' 'yeah, I need like a week off, from everything' 'OK doll, I understand, do you want me to buy 3 tickets?' 'yeah sure' 'OK, ill get you on the next flight out' 'thanks Maggie' 'don’t mention it' I hung up the phone and went downstairs. My eyes were puffy from wiping them with my sleeve, Gwen was on the phone and Belle was in her computer, they stared at me with concern. 'OK Niall I gotta go...i love you to bye' she hung up the phone, 'liam, somethings come up, ill talk to you later, I love you bye' she shut her computer. 'charlie, whats wrong?' 'I need to get away, all this media attention, and everything is getting to me, I asked Maggie if we could go and she booked us some tickets to go to Michigan' 'OK, anything to help' 'im going to go pack' I headed up stairs. I heard Gwen and Belle talking as I walked up, 'I haven’t seen her like this for a long time' 'yeah, do you think its as bad as it was a few years ago?' 'I don’t know, hopefully not'. A few years ago my boyfriend broke up with me and I went into a state of clinical depression. I spent 3 weeks in a hospital, it was the down point in my life, Gwen and Belle visited me everyday until they let me go.
