*Toms POV*

I slam my hands on the desk.

"please.. i know you know. Just tell me... is she okay?"

"That is classified information."

"Not for me. You dont understand."

"Are you family?"

"No, i'm not."

"Then i can not tell you her information."

"I heard someone on their radio-thing earlier, they said someone had... someone had died." i swallow. "was it Katy?"

"I'm sorry, i dont have that information."

*Harrys Pov*

"Thankyou for letting us know." Dads voice is low and wavering, about to crack.

"You are very welcome, A doctor will be with you soon to discuss everything you might be going through."

I feel a lump rising in my throat, a gagging, choking feeling that makes me want to curl up in a ball on the floor and scream.

I feel empty, almost like a hunger; like a hole has been dug in the pit of my stomach and my heart has fallen into it.

A pair of arms enclose around me. "Get off. Get off. Dont touch me." The words that come from my lips are foregin, they dont sound llike me. They are strangled, desperate.

"shh, shh. I know, i know." it's mum.

She whispers softly in my ear, her voice making me crumple. I let the tears rise and spill over my cheeks. My body shakes with shobs, my head feels like it's being squeezed to the point of popping. 

"ssh,,,shh," she says again, her hand stroking my hair. "try to calm down lovely. Just breathe... breathe Harry."

I nod and let out another sob before lifting my head. I force myself to let out a shallow breath, but it turns into a spluttering cough. 

"Harry, harry.. look at me."

I lift my head and wipe the tears away from my vision. I realise that she aswell is crying. 

"Harry, i know this is hard. I know, i promise i understand, but it's important that you stay calm."

i nod. "i'm sorry." my voice cracks.

"Oh my love, dont be sorry." she encloses me in a hug

"How do we tell him... how are we going to tell him?" i follow dads voice and find him, his head in his hands. "Tom... how are we going to tell Tom?"

*Sara's POV*

I bump into someone and look up.

"Sara!"

"Tom, dont talk to me. It's not good for you, or me. Please... i dont want to hurt you anymore."

"What are you talking about?"

"Jack... he just told me what i needed to understand, that this is all my fault. I dont want to hurt you anymore."

"Sara, please, dont do this." he grabs me by the wrist.

"I dont want to, but it's for the best." i move from his grip.

"Sara..."

"Tom, leave me alone. Dont... dont touch me." He grabs my writst again. "I said, dont touch me."

I pull away from him and run down the corridor, trying desperatley to swallow my tears.

I round the corner and see Dom, Nicola and Harry, all crumpled in defeated positions, not one of them without red eyes.

"I'm so sorry." is the immediate thing to fall from my lips. "Oh god, i'm so sorry."
