"Well, I'm gonna go get some food too." Liam said grabbing his car keys.

"With Danielle?" I asked. He blushed. "Yeeaah." he mumbled. "Aaaw!" I said.

"Go get some Liam!" he turned tomato red. I giggled. "I should say the same." he said, herking his thumb towards Harry.

"W-what?" I asked, but he already had slinked out of the room. I reached over and grabbed my laptop. I logged onto Twitter. I now had 2.8 million followers. I read some mentioned tweets I got.

@Real_Liam_Payne: in the hospital, sad. everyone please keep @briannamalik in your prayers and minds :/

@Louis_Tomlinson: hospital with @briannamalik. I miss her preeeetty face. Please wake up soon, love! #PRAY

@harry_styles: haven't slept in a day and a half. I know something good will come out of this. pray for @briannamalik.

I let some tears fall. I was so happy. I quickly wiped them away and looked up at Harry. He had his legs curled up to him and his head was tucked into the corner of the chair. He had a blanket around him and he was slightly snoring.

I updated my twitter, so all the fans would stop worrying.

@briannamalik: hello twitterverse! I woke up this morning, I was out for 2 days, I fell into a pool and the filter hooked my shirt and I couldn't get out. No worries though! I'm ok and getting discharged today! Thanks for all the wishes! @zaynmalik, @Louis_Tomlinson, @harry_styles, @NiallOfficial, @Real_Liam_Payne...I can't thank you guys enough for staying with me.

I looked at Brianna's limp body as she sank and stuck to the bottom of the pool. Louis and Niall started to cry. I never saw them cry. Before I knew what I was doing, I dived in. I saw her stop thrashing as she lay lifeless at the bottom of the pool. This is all your fault. All your falt. My brain screamed at me. Zayn and I puller her up from the bottom. Her lips were blue, her skin an icy white. I let the tears fall. I saw Zayn start to cry as Liam called 911.

"Yes, she drown. She's not breathing. Please hurry!" he yelled into the phone, as the tears streamed from his eyes. I didn't expect him to crack. I looked around me, at all the pain and sorrow I had caused. Zayn got sick and threw up. He passed out. Louis quickly rushed to him as he took him to the bathroom. Niall stared at me. I saw pain in his icy blue eyes. I grabbed Brianna and put my hands to her chest. I pushed, trying to wake her. I put my lips to hers and breathed into her. Her lips started to become a normal color.

"I don't know what you're doing, but keep going Harry!" Niall screamed. I did it again and she started coughing up water. I rolled her over so she could spit it out. She passed out in my arms again, but was breathing. The medics came and took her out of my arms. I let myself fall on the wet floor and sobbed. Niall came over and hugged me. Liam ran after the medics and got onto the ambulance as the sirens faded in the distance.

"I could have killed h-her." I sobbed. Niall patted my hair.

"That's not your fault, you didn't know her shirt would get stuck. NONE of us blame you. It was an accident." Niall said. I nodded.

Louis came in and hugged me.

"We know you didn't try it Harry. we love you and know it's not your fault. You tried to pull her up, and you tried to recessitate her." Louis said. I never heard him so mature and serious. I just nodded.

"But Zayn...she's his sister!" I sobbed more.

"Harry, he knows you tried to help her! Thanks to you she'll be okay!" he said. I just nodded. Zayn came over and hugged me.

"It's not your fault Harry." he said quietly.

"Are you sure." I asked as the boys releaased me and passed around a box of tissues. Zayn nodded.

"Harry, you're one of my best friends. You'd never try to drown her. It was the filter's fault." he replied.

"Now lets get to the hospital." he said as we all ran to the car.

** 2 DAYS LATER, SUNDAY**

I held her soft hand and cried. I hadn't slept in 36 hours. My eyes were heavy and I was hungry. But the guilt. I couldn't bear to leave her. The boys left that first night. But I stayed. Awake. They came the next morning, and tehn left to go to lunch without me. I stayed. My eyes burning from lack of sleep. The came this morning and I was still here. I was tired. Exhausted. It was 10:34 am. 2 days and 20 minutes. Awake. The boys were asleep spread out between 2 chairs, while Liam was on the floor. I told Brianna how horrible I felt. I knew she couldn't hear me. I laid my head on her stomach and cried while I listened to her melodic breathing. I felt a weak hand stroke my hair.

"Harry..." she croaked. I shot my head up. Brianna was awake. Her skin was pale and her lips were dry. She was weak and tired. She reached up and wiped away my tears. She weakly smiled. We talked a little. She asked for water. I called the nurse. She was young. Maybe 20 with blonde hair. Normally I'd flirt with a girl ike that. But something was telling me I didn't want her. She gave Brianna her water and left quickly after saying she was going to leave today. I was happy. Brianna looked rejuvenated after that water. I heard a boy groan. I turned to see Louis with his arms reaching towards me. He called out

"Boobear! Come over here. You'vre been with Brianna for 3 hours."

Had time really gone that fast today? It felt like the guys got here minutes ago. I blushed as she looked at me shyly.

"Louis she's awake." I said. Louis' eyes widened as he ran over and hugged her. They started hugging and I got annoyed. Why? Then he said something and kissed her cheek. I felt my hand clench and unclench. Why was I so mad? I felt a familiar hand grab mine. Brianna's. She looked at me curiously and smiled. Louis ran over and woke up Zayn, Niall,and Liam. I just looked at her. Her blue eyes, her pink lips, her dirty blonde hair, her long, curly eyelashes. What am I saying!? Zayn ran over and hugged her. I walked over to stand in the corner. He looked so relieved. I was happy for him. Then Niall walked up.

"I missed seeing your pretty eyes." or something like that. I was so mad. Why!?

I saw Brianna look at me in the corner of her eyes, then look back at Niall like she never even looked at me. God! I was acting like an idiot in front of her! I sat down on the chair where Zayn was earlier. It was so warm...I wrapped myself in a blanket. I heard all the guys leave so I slowly closed my eyes and pretended I was asleep. I heard someone get up. Liam. He told her how I never left her side. She was touched. Yes! Wait why the hell was I excited? Ugh! I heard him say he was going out with Dani and Brianna told him to get some. I bit my tongue so I wouldn't laugh. I heard her reach for something and start tapping. Her laptop. She must have got on Twitter or something. I closed my eyes the whole way when she looke up at me. I felt her stare for a few seconds before she chuckled and I heard the tapping continue. I heard her shut the lid and lay in her bed with a sigh as she drifted to sleep.
