*Nikita's P.O.V.*

"Hey, Niall. Are you excited you're being released tomorrow?" I asked him, entering the hospital room.

"Uh-huh, what's he doing here?" Niall said, looking at Zayn, who had entered the room behind me.

"Harry had to work so Zayn drove me here"

"Louis or Melanie could've driven you" he replied coldly.

"Melanie was sick today and Louis had to meet up with Manson"

"I should probably get going" Zayn said before leaving.

"Why are you being so cold to Zayn? It was very nice of him to bring me here"

"I don't like the way he looks at you" Niall told me.

"What do you mean?"

"He likes you" he said.

"So? I'm in a relationship and I only view him as a friend. You don't need to be jealous or feel threatened by him"

"I'm sorry"

"It's not me you should be apologizing to"

"I'll apologize to Zayn the next time I see him" he promised.

"Good"

"So what are people saying about me at school?"

"That you're in a gang and your rival gang attacked you after you killed their leader"

"What?!" He laughed.

"Yeah, the stories that people come up with are hilarious"

"They are. The police caught Marcus. He's going away for a long time" he told me.

"That's awesome, now you don't have to worry"

"Not for a few years anyway" he said.

"Tomorrow we're going to throw your razor blade away"

"Sounds great, love"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I knocked on Niall's front door. He was released from the hospital this morning and I couldn't wait to see him.

"Hey, babe" he greeted when he finally made it to the door.

"Hey, Nialler" I greeted, giving him a kiss before entering his house.

"Do you mind if we hang out downstairs? It's not easy going up and down the stairs on crutches"

"Of course, as long as we get rid of your razor blade"

"I brought it downstairs with me" he said, pulling it out of his pocket and handing it to me.

"Thank you" I said, taking it and getting rid of it before joining him on the couch. "How's your knee?"

"Hurts, but it's not as bad as it was"

"How long are you gonna need those crutches?"

"I dunno, it depends on how fast it heals and how physical therapy goes" he told me.

"Is it annoying being on crutches all the time?"

"Very"

"Do you want me to come over here at night since you can't sneak out?"

"You don't have to do that" he said.

"You need sleep"

"I'll be fine. It's not safe for you to be out late" he pointed out.

"I can take care of myself"

"Nikita, I'm serious" he said sternly.

"Okay! What do you want to watch?" I asked, changing the subject.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I know Niall told me not to, but I'm still gonna sneak out so he can sleep tonight.

Once everybody went to sleep I opened my bedroom window, carefully climbing out.

I made my way to his house, walking to the side of his house where he was attacked not too long ago.

I pushed the thought out of mind, carefully climbing the tree that led to his bedroom window. I gently tapped on the glass.

Niall got up, opening the window.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" He whispered angrily.

"I'm here to help you sleep"

"I told you not to come tonight. It's not safe to be out this late"

"I'll go home if you want"

"No, something might happen to you. Come in, I'll bring you home in the morning"
