The Lost Souls (Emo/Punk Niall Horan Fanfic)

Chapter 13 - Diana

*Niall's P.O.V.*

"Niall... Niall... Niall!" Louis said, annoyed.

"What?"

Lately, Nikita and I have been sending each other a lot of flirty texts.

"You're texting Nikita again, aren't you?"

"Yeah" I blushed.

"Why don't you just ask her out already?"

"I don't know" I shrugged.

"Do it, ask her out"

"I will, but not over text. I'll do it Monday at school"

*Nikita's P.O.V.*

Today is a great day. Christmas is just around the corner and I'm now down to 89 pounds. Ten pounds less than I was when I first moved in with Auntie Anne.

I walked down the stairs to see what we were going to do today. I entered the living room, sitting between Harry and Gemma.

"What are we going to do today?" I asked my aunt.

"I'm not sure yet, maybe some Christmas shopping. We're going out for brunch, so you may want to get dressed"

"Alright" I said, going back upstairs to get dressed.

I put on a pair of dark wash skinny jeans, a red and white Christmas jumper, a leather jacket and some black combat boots.

I grabbed my phone off of it's charger, putting it in the pocket of my jeans.

Suddenly, I started to feel lightheaded. My legs got a bit wobbly and I hit the floor before everything went black.

*Niall's P.O.V.*

I don't have any morning classes with Nikita, so I couldn't wait to see her at lunch.

I was fidgeting in my chair, not listening to a word the teacher was saying.

Finally, the bell rang and I walked quickly, getting my lunch and sitting at our usual lunch table.

Melanie was the first to join me.

"Hey, Melanie" I greeted.

"Hey, Niall"

"Have you seen Nikita?"

"No, she hasn't been in any of her morning classes" she told me.

"Do you know where she is?"

"No"

Louis and Cher soon joined us.

"What're you guys talking about?" Louis asked.

"We were wondering where Nikita is" Melanie told him.

"She's not at school?" Cher asked.

"No, we don't know where she is"

"You've been texting her a lot lately, Niall. Did she say anything about being sick?" Louis asked me.

"No, she never replied to the text I sent her yesterday morning"

"That's weird, she always texts back as soon as possible" Cher pointed out.

"I know"

"Let's ask Harry where she is" Melanie suggested.

"Where is he?"

I looked at the table where he normally sits, only to see he wasn't there with Liam and the kid that moved here around Halloween. I think Nikita said his name is Zayn.

"There he is" Louis said, pointing towards the door. Harry walked in, looking tired and a bit dishevelled.

"What the hell happened to you?" I asked him as he walked by with his tray.

"I've been up all night" he replied.

"Why?"

"I was at the hospital"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Not me, Nikita" he told me.

"What's wrong with Nikita?"

"She was hospitalized yesterday morning"

"I got that. Why was she hospitalized?"

"Eating disorder. The doctor said it's like she hasn't eaten in over a week" he said before walking to his lunch table to go eat.

"Eating disorder?" I said, feeling the blood drain from my face. I know she's skinny, but she said it was because her mum monitored everything she ate. She said she was trying to gain weight.

I needed answers. I got up, deciding to ditch school for the rest of the day. I got in my car, driving to the hospital.

I don't know if the whole Niall and Ed Sheeran collaboration is actually going to happen, but I saw the attached pic on Insta and I really hope it's happening!
