Lou's P.O.V

I'm so glad Jess is out of hospital and the nurse said she should be getting better soon, as long as she carries on in the way she is. I'm so relieved she's okay!

There seems to be something weird going on with Niall and Emily though. They keep watching each other, and when their eyes meet they lock and it seems like neither of them want to look away. They're definitely hiding something. If only I knew what.

"So how you feeling, Jess?" I asked as she appeared at the top of the stairs. We've all been staying in Emily's appartment recently, as we're all so worried about Jess and really want to be there for her. Zayn sleeps on the big sofa, Me and Harry are staying in the guest room and Niall and Liam are on the double sofa bed. It's kinda fun, really.

"Yeah I'm okay.. um..?.. Louis! Sorry!"

Even though my heart cracked a bit every time she did that, I plastered a smile on my face. "No worries, honey, I know you're trying," 

"So.. what we doing today?" asked Niall curiously.

"Errm.. any suggestions anyone?" Liam wondered.

"Wherever you guys go, I'm gonna stay here, I don't feel so good," Jess queasily said.

"Oh, I'll stay with you then," I voluntereed quickly. Maybe a little too quickly. I got a few suspicious looks from the others. I've gotta be more careful next time. 

"No, I'll stay," said Niall.

"I'll do it," Liam decided.

It was obvious everyone wanted to stay with Jess because they wanted to be remembered.

"I think I should stay. After all, I am the one she remembers," pointed out Zayn.

"Why don't you all just stay?" Jess asked exasperated.

"Sorry Jess, we didn't mean to argue over  you," apologised Zayn.

"It's fine," she smiled, giving him a quick hug. I think we're all so jealous of Zayn. How come he got remembered and not us? I know that that is so selfish but I guess we all just miss her so much. Especially Harry. Especially me.

I haven't seen Harry in a while. He normally just falls into bed at ridiculous times in the morning, and the next day he wakes up really early and leaves before anyone else wakes up. As if he's never been. But I see him. I remember last night, watching him willing himself to fall into slumber, not realising I was watching him. His hair dirty and matted. His clothes the same he's been wearing for over a week now. His fingernails caked with mud. The trickles of saltwater that permanently line his cheeks. I don't think he's showered in about two weeks now. He can't be bothered. He can't be bothered to do anything anymore. He just doesn't care. And it breaks my heart to see my best friend like this. It breaks my heart.

"Okay! I can't stand this anymore! I am soooooo bored! LET'S PLAY A GAME!!!!!" whined Niall right in my ear. I rubbed it, glaring at him all the time.

"Sowwy Lou poo," Niall said in a sugar-sweet voice, giving me the cutest puupy eyes, I just had to burst out laughing.

"What game then?" I wondered.

"What about.. spin the bottle?" suggested Zayn, a cheeky grin on his face.

"Sure, whatever. I'm happy with that. Got nothing better to do!" decided Jess, and we all agreed. So we sat cross-legged in a circle, and Liam produced a Coke can from the kitchen. He spinned it, and we all watched it gradually get slower, and slower until it stopped altogether. It was pointing at Zayn.
