Turning the keys in the ignition so the car turns off, I sit back in my seat, biting my lip and furrowing my eyebrows. I tried to get Niall to tell me what Louis did, but he refused to spill the beans. I thought of all the possibilities for a while, but then returned my full attention to playing Scrabble with the Horans, one of us always watching the other two.

Could Louis be so vicious as to threaten Niall, or even hurt him? Niall did have a purple, green and brown bruise on his upper arm shaped like a hand, like if someone slapped your chest to leave a handprint. But this is a bruise, a pretty bad bruise, and I know what Niall claimed was a lie----the doctor held onto him too tight, while popping the bones back into place, to keep him still.

I shake my head ripping the keys from the hole and getting out of the car to go inside. "Your the only one Louis chose to tell?" I walk in on Liam and Zayn, mid-sentence. "Because I caught hi-" They fall silent when I'm fully inside, shutting the door. I give them a look that says, "tell-me-whats-going-on". I speak up when they stay silent. "If it's about Louis, I probably already know." I roll my eyes, tossing my keys onto the table. "Zayn was just the only one to know about Louis' sexuality.-----And his love for you." I raise my eyebrows at Zayn. "Couldn't have given me a hint." I shake my head, lifting my arms a bit before letting them drop. Zayn shrugs.

"Do you guys know where Louis went last night?" I ask them. "We went to a pub but I called Liam to take us home. Lou wanted to stay, though, so I don't what he did after." So there's a possibility. "Why? Something happen?" Liam asks, following me into the kitchen. "Niall has a bruise on his arm. Looks like a hand shaped bruise. And Niall said that Louis went into his room this morning and I think he threatened him." I sigh, twisting the lid off of a beer. "No. No way Louis did that, he's harmless." Liam, arms crossed, shrugs and his voice gets a higher pitch at the end of his sentence.

"I know. That's the stupid part." I plop down onto the couch, lifting the bottle to my mouth. Liam sits down next to me, watching me pout with my bent eyebrows. "I don't think Louis hurt him, mate." Liam rests his hands on his knees. "I don't know." I drop my head back on the couch and chug the rest of my beer, asking Zayn if he could get me another one.

"Okay, mate, I think you've had enough. You're already drunk." Liam warns me five beers later, making six beers total. Laughing, I poke his cheek. "You've been drinking too." "No, mate, I haven't." Liam shakes his head but I roll my eyes and mock him . "Jill Carbo!" I cheer, bending down to pick up the cat. She meow's at me as I do, cuddling her to my chest and laying down, scratching her ear. "Jill Carbo loves Niall." I giggle. I gasp loudly, scaring Jill Carbo away and I sit up. "NIALL!! I should go make his arm better!!! Liam that's a great idea!!" Liam looks at me with a confused face and watches me trip over the coffee table, grabbing my keys from them and stumbling to the door.

"Whoa whoa whoa, no. Stop. Harry, you're not driving. No way in fuck am I letting you drive drunk." Liam stops, me, pressing his hands on my chest in protest and trying to take the keys from my hand. I pull my hand away from him though, pouting my face in anger. "Leave me alone Liam it was YOUR idea!!" I try to maneuver around him but he gets in my way again. "Harry, at least let me drive. You can count the stars for Niall or something." Niall would love that, to know how many stars are in the sky every night. I let Liam take the keys.

Before we can make it out the door, Louis enters the house. He wrinkles his nose from the stench and looks at me. "Are you drunk?" He asks. "Shutup I know what you did!!" I point my finger at him, almost touching his nose. Louis moves his eyes to Liam. "Right, well, I'm starving." Louis moves around me to get the food he wants. "That's a warning." I call after him.

"SHOTGUN!!!" I yell, running to the car but tripping over my own feet and falling off the two steps to the concrete. Louis and Liam, from the doorway, make a "sssss" noise and clench up. "Ooooh." Louis sings, covering his mouth and turning away. Liam starts down to me but I get up on my own, groaning from my back being stabbed by the edges of the stairs and yell, "I CALLED MOTHERFUCKING SHOTGUN!!" I run to the car again, yanking on the door handle. "Oh no, it's locked. Liaaaaam!!! IT'S LOOOOOOOOOCKED!!" I scream, continuing to pull on the handle and throw my head back when I scream. "Harry! Let! Go!" I let go and hear the car make a weird sound. I stand there and watch Liam get in the driver seat, starting the car. Liam leans over the console and looks at me. "You can get in now." Laughing, I open the door and get in. "I'm fuckin magic." I giggle.

As Liam drives through the roads, I press my face against the glass of the window trying to see the sky above us so I don't miss those stars. Seeing my struggle, Liam rolls down my window, making it smear against my cheek and forcing me to jump back from the sting to my face. The cold wind nips at the bare skin. I poke my head out of the window with a smile and holding onto where the window used to be so I won't fall out. "ONE! TWO! THREE!" I count out loud so Liam can hear. I want him to know how many stars there are, too.

"Hey! What happened?!" I screech when the car stops moving completely. "Were at Nialls house." Liam answers, putting the car in park. "OH YEAH!!" I smile more, climbing out of the car through the window. I fall onto the ground with a grunt, telling Liam I'm fine and that he's a douche for not opening the door before I make my way to the front door of my beautiful boyfriends house.

"NIALL!!" I yell, pounding on the door with my fist. It takes longer than it should for Niall to show up at the door with out his crutches. "Hey! You're all better!" I point at his casted foot with a genuine, bubbly smile. "No, I just used the railing." Niall say's tiredly, rubbing his eye and running a hand through his hair. "Have you been drinking?" He asks after taking the time to sniff the air and look at me good enough. "Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........" I press my lips together, leaning forward and swinging my body side to side and look to the top corner of my eyes. "Yes." I look at him after determining the answer. "Why?" He asks, not sure what to do. "HEY! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY STARS ARE IN THE SKY?!" I ask, remembering what Liam had said. "No, how many?" Niall shrugs, squinting his eyes. "Six." I smile, giggling. Niall grins and leans over and looks at my car. "Sorry Niall. I wouldn't let him drive." Liam calls out the window. "It's okay. You can go home, I'll let him crash in my bed." Niall calls back. "You sure?" Niall looks at me as I'm staring at his shirt, tracing the letters that are on his chest. "I'm sure."

Laying in Nialls bed, I turn over so I can see the bruise on his arm. I forgot that I came here to fix it, so I lean over and start to kiss every inch of the large bruise, even around his arm. "What are you doing?" Niall chuckles. "Making you all better." I mumble. Niall chuckles. "Thanks, babe." Niall turns around, his arm out of my lips reach, and is now facing me. "Hey, I'm not done." I pout. Niall kisses me. "You taste like beer." Niall smirks. "That's odd because I didn't have any." I smirk too. Niall bites his lower lip and looks me up and down, checking me out.

I smile at his wondering eyes and lean over him, kissing him. Niall wastes no time kissing me back and wraps his arm around me, me tangling our legs together and caressing his cheek in my hand. "Mm, Harry - I'm not gonna take advantage of you." Niall pulls away, boring his eyes into mine. "I want you to take advantage of me." I state. Niall smiles and laughs a little. "Sorry, love." Niall pecks my lips before crawling over me and balancing himself on his good foot, grabbing his crutches and he moves to the door. "I'll see you in the morning." He grins before shutting my door.

I watch the door, hearing him crutch down the hall all the way to the stairs.

I smile at the door and mumble, "Love you."

Whoever is reporting the comments on my story as offensive, please stop. They're not offensive to me, and if they're offensive to you (which they shouldn't be unless they're directed to you) then it's okay I guess. But just because it has a cuss word in it, please do not report it. I love the comments and I don't want them to disappear. Please, stop.

Again, I'm worried about Affney because he's been sleeping for two days straight now and I heard the nurse say that his breathing has slowed down quite a bit, which I'm sure isn't good.

I'll be out of the hospital next week hopefully, but I also kind of want to stay because Affney is so cool :)

QOTC:

If you had twins, a girl and a boy, what would you name them?

Do you think Harry said that out of sincere love or this alcohol? Even if Niall didn't hear it.
