Letting Go (Niall Horan AU)

Chapter 43

October

...............

Red and blue lights flashed everywhere as I ran towards Ambers house. Police officers held me back trying to calm me as I frantically tried to make my way to the ambulance that was parked.

"Please, please she's my best friend." I sobbed speaking towards the police man.

"I'm sorry miss, but you can't at the moment." The officer answered.

I watched as the ambulance speeded away, sirens blaring. My head was pounding and I could hear Nialls voice speaking to me probably trying to calm me down, but I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I could focus on was her mother Tracy sitting on the front porch speaking to some officers taking notes.

I walk over as the police leave her and I sit down next to her.

"W-what happened? Why was she home early?" I asked.

Tracy couldn't answer through her broken sobs. All she did was hug me as we both cried.

Niall tapped on my shoulder.

"Babe? Wanna go see her at the hospital?" He asked cautiously.

"Y-yeah." I answered gasping for air.

"Wanna come? I'm sure she'll be o-okay." I stuttered not believing my own words as I spoke to Ambers mom.

She just broke into more sobs.

"Tracy?" Asked rubbing her back trying to calm her down.

"Th-the hospital is u-useless." She sobbed.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Sh-she's dead."

"You don't know that, she'll be fine. Right? Well what happened? I mean she'll be okay I'm sure of it, we don't know she's dead for su-" I started babbling, but then Tracy but me off by rubbing my arm.

"Toby, sweetie?"

"Y-yes?"

"She killed herself." She said tears streaming down her face and her lip trembling.

"N- no! She not dead! She wouldn't leave me! She wouldn't do that! She'll be okay, it's okay. L-let's go to the hospital right now, you'll see she'll be fine!" I shouted at no one in particular, not believing what Tracy was saying.

I looked over at her and only saw her shaking her head crying. I looked over at Niall. He had a worried look on his face.

"Niall start the car we're going to the hospital." I commanded.

He shook his head.

"Babe I don't know if-"

"Start the fucking car!" I shouted at him not knowing what else to do.

He sighed getting up and walking to the car. I looked out the window wishing Niall would drive faster, thinking somehow if I got there sooner Amber would be just fine.

We pulled into a parking spot in front of the hospital and u tried to get out of the car but the door was locked.

"Unlock it!" I shouted frantically at Niall.

"October calm down." He said reaching over towards me. I pulled away from his touch.

"Don't tell me to calm down!" I shouted.

"October listen to me." He said seriously.

"What?!" I yelled.

"Did you hear what Ambers mum said earlier? She isn't a-"

"Niall shut the fuck up! She fine!" I yelled reaching over and unlocking the doors myself.

I got out slamming the door behind me as I jogged to the entrance.

I reached the front desk panting and tasting my own tears in my mouth.

"W-what room is Amber Whitney in?" I asked.

"What's your name miss?" She asked.

"October Maine." I stuttered.

"I'll get back to you in a moment please take a seat." The lady said.

I nodded taking A seat next to random people. Niall walked in and sat down next to me.

"Come here." He said patting his lap.

I got up and sat down on him leaning into his chest hiding my face in his neck. He stroked my hair soothingly as we waiting for the lady to tell us what room she was in.

I looked up to find the lady glancing up at me with a sympathetic look as she spoke on the phone in a whisper.

I started breathing faster.

"Your gonna be okay." Niall said trying to calm me.

"It's not me I'm worried about." I said tears rolling down my cheeks again.

Minutes later, a doctor walked towards us. I hoped he was just going to escort us to her room, but deep down I knew this was not going to be the case.

"Miss Maine?" He asked looking up from a clipboard.

I nodded.

He gave a look of sympathy matching the ladys behind the counter.

"Do you know the story of how Miss Whitney got here?" He asked.

He sighed when I have no reply.

"Well, who I assume was her mother found her without a heartbeat on her bathroom floor. We're afraid this is the cause of suicide. Amber Whitney died of blood loss."

I don't comprehend what he's saying. Is this a dream? When will I wake up? But I'm snapped out of my daze when I feel my entire being ache. No, this is not a nightmare. Amber is gone.

I can't see anything, and I think I can hear someone screaming. The person screaming is me. And the next thing I know all I see in black and everything is silent.
