I WANNA BE WITH YOU

CHAPTER 7: I WANNA BE WITH YOU

NIALL’S P.O.V:

I wish I knew what she was thinking.

Scarlet just left ten minutes ago but I can’t help but think why she didn’t react the way I thought she would. I really hope she’s alright and not just staying strong for me. I just can’t believe that these fans would say something so horrible like that because if they were fans they would suport us no matter what. I can’t date all of my fans. I’m only one person. 

I felt so happy though about last night. Everything was perfect. Holding her in my arms made me realized how much I care for her, like I was holding the whole universe in my arms. I remember resting my head on hers last night and smelling the scent of her hair. It smelled so sweet like lilacs freshly cut. She always smelled beautifly. 

I got up and got dressed ready to go downstairs for the third concerts sound check. Thank god not many fans were going to be there because I just cant handle them right now. I’m just too unstable.

I got downstairs to see all the boys lined up in there positions, Louis’ hands were on his hips and he was looking at me. “Where have you been, boy! We’ve been waiting for nearly an hour!” I looked up and he looked back at me like he was sorry for what he said. I felt my face get hot and I could feel my cheeks blushing with red. The boys came over to hug me one at a time. 

“Boys, what should I do! all of these crazy fans! I’m so afraid she’ll get hurt. I really couldn’t forgive myself if she did. I have this gut feeling something bad will happen.” And it did. Paul came over to us as I was discusing with the lads my problem. He took me aside and he had this worried face plastered on. 

“Niall. I’m so sorry but, Scarlet just got rushed to the hospital.”

I swear I could feel my heart stop at that very moment I heard her name.

SCARLET’S P.O.V:

All I can hear is sirens.

I can feel the cold ground beneath me. I can faintly see who the people above me are because my whole vision is blurred. I can hear walkie talkies going off when I feel arms underneath me. And then everything goes black.

**4 hours later**

My eye lids flutter open. I look down at my clothes to see i’m in a hospital gown and those little socks they always put on your feet. To my arm I can feel an IV. Why am I here? The only thing I remember last was leaving the hotel. Oh my gosh.. I forgot to leave with Paul. He was supposed to escort me. Did someone assult me? I couldn’t have been.. then what really did happen? 

A nurse walked in and I tried to sit up. She came over to me and pushed my body back down. 

“You have to lay down darling! You’ve got a concussion. That’ll just make it worse! And also you have got a visitor! He is very eager to see you.” She smiled at me hoping it was Niall. And it was.

He opened the door slowly and walked over to my side. He pulled up a chair and held my hand for a while until he broke the silence.

“I’m so sorry Scarlet. I will never forgive myself for putting you in danger. I deserve it if you decide to leave me. I’m too much to deal with. I’m a bother.” And I can see the tears streaming down his cheek and his puffy eyes beginning to get redder and redder. I tilted up his head with my free hand so I could wipe away his tears. The way he looked into my eyes sent a chill down my back because the only time I ever felt someone loved me this much was when Shane looked at me. Niall thought that he hurt me and he feels like I could never forgive him but I will. It wasn’t his fault at all. I will never let go of what we have. 

“Niall. I’ll forgive you. Always.” He looked down. “Niall listen to me right now. And you listen good. You are with me now. Now and until you get sick of me. I will love you until you decide you don’t love me. I will love you no matter what.” That made him crack a smile. 

“It’s good to hear you say that when you’re sober.”

And I meant every single word.
