《Niall POV》
"Wait.. why are we,"
"Kelsey's there," Liam replied blankly.
I couldn't see his face, and I felt like the whole atmosphere went from sorrow and slow, to quick and frantic.. it was.. stressful..I could feel my breaths quickening, racing up like Liam's..
I tried to look at his face through the mirror, but he wouldn't let me... and then his words sunk in.
"Kelsey's in the hospital? Is she hurt or sic..." I stopped mid-sentence.. remembering everything Essie had told me for what felt like it was an eternity ago.
She's... dying.
"I thought you said she was better?" I leaned against my seat as the driver took a sharp turn. I could hear Liam's sniffles, and I turned to him, his grimace whirled into agony at my words.
"I thought she was... but she lied.." Liam used the back of his palm to wipe the tears. I rose my eyebrows in shock, before I sat back against the seat of the car, totally forgetting about trying to talk to Essie.. right now.. Liam needs me.
"How.. How do you know she's at the hospital?" I barely murmured, looking down at my hands.
Liam let out a groan...
"Can you stop asking me questions, Niall.."he tried to say politely, the sound of his voice only becoming more shaky.. I nodded my head and sat back, staying silent. I continued to hear Liam cry, and I couldn't help but cry myself.. if he was in the backseat, I'd try my best to comfort him.. but.. I couldn't.
"I'm sorry Niall.. it's just that..." his voice shook harshly as he tried to breath through the tears.
"I was... t-talking to Essie.." her name sent me into a rigid position..
"and.. and I heard h-her..m-mum saying that she needs to go.." his voice rose with pain..And even though he just said that Essie was going to be there... Kelsey was on my mind.. and Liam's response... why does she need to-
"She needs to go say goodbye," he answered my thoughts. I cringed... I hate seeing him like this. I really do. And now.. that I understand why he's like this.. I couldn't help but let out a moan of sadness.
Kelsey was my close friend ,too.
"I need to say goodbye, too.. Niall.... I.. I won't be able to live with myself if I don't.." Liam shook his head as his voice shattered and trembled.
I couldn't bear the thought of ever losing Essie that way either.. so just to think about what Liam must be going through... was so painful.. he's not only my band-mate, but my friend, my brother..
And even though this was the last hope... I felt like.. like it was a bad idea.. like what might happen might be too much for Liam...
Too much grief.
.
We got there in a matter of minutes.. and as we drove into the parking lot... I knew I was in love.. because when I saw that familiar face, the beautiful auburn red hair, her tan skin, her perfect eyebrows that furrowed in intensity as she walked into the front of the hospital..
"That's Essie," I pointed in bewilderment... I hurried to the door and tried to unlock it..
Liam did the same, and in seconds we stepped out.
We raced to follow her... and I could just feel the anxiousness to know what was going to happen.
Once we took a step inside, i think it hit us alot harder than it should...because Essie was now running down the silent halls, a phone against her ear.
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" her voice sounded stressed as Liam and I exchanged a frantic glare.
"I don't have time," Liam murmured in a quick breath.. before running after her. Me doing the same
"Essie!" I decided to yell. And she turned back at us, her full lips from afar parting in disbelief, before she turned back and shook her head.
"Essie!" Liam cried this time, and as he did, Essie slowed down, turning to an open room, and she froze, she cuffed her mouth.. and my heart skipped a beat as I watched Liam freeze a third way through... she must be..dead?
And just as it sunk in.. my already mourning heart broke even more..
When a pair of arms wrapped around Essie... another man.
"Essie." Liam called again.. and this time, both of them looked back at us, before Mr. and Mrs. Diamonds emerged from the room, tears in their eyes... before it all turned to anger..
And the guy that had his hands wrapped around Essie, had his face warped into pure anger...before the unexpected happened.
The guy began to sprint in our direction, his face full of rage and anger.
