Secret Love

Chapter 28

Liam's P.O.V.

I've been sitting in the waiting room with everyone else for three hours now while Kylie is in surgery. The waiting has been terrible; nobody will tell us what's going on and if she'll be okay. Nobody's really talking at all. We've been keeping to ourselves, thinking so it's quiet. There's nobody else here, thank god. The last thing we need is for someone to recognize us.

I hear footsteps and look up and see a doctor walking towards us. I stand up and everyone else looks up. The doctor walks over to me and smiles slightly.

"Liam Payne?" He asks and I nod.

"Your sister will be okay, she's awake and stable. She lost a lot of blood so we had to do a blood transfusion and she lost a lot of weight but the cuts are all stitched up. She is very traumatized though. She will need a lot of therapy and support to go back to normal if she ever goes back to normal. She is awake though so you can go see her. I don't recommend everyone going in at once, it'll overwhelm her." The doctor tells me but everyone else is listening.

"Okay thank you." I say with a small smile and he walks away.

I look over at Cooper and he nods at me. I walk down the hall to her room and take a deep breath before opening the door and walking into her room. I close the door behind me, trying to be quiet but she instantly looks over at me, her eyes wide with fear.

"It's okay, Kyles, it's only me." I say quietly and walk over to the side of her bed. I pull a chair up to her and sit down.

"How are you feeling?" I ask her.

"Okay I guess. Physically, better. I keep seeing him. The stupidest things make me flinch." She mumbles.

"He's dead now, we killed him and he can never hurt you or anyone else again. I'm so sorry it took so long for us to find you. We were working so hard." I tell her and reach out for her hand and squeeze it lightly but she flinches away. "I'm sorry." I say again.

"No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pull away." Kylie says, looking like she's about to cry.

"Hey, hey it's okay. I understand, Kyles. You went through a lot these past few days." I say and give her a reassuring smile.

"How is he...?" She asks in a whisper.

"He's been a complete mess. He hasn't eaten anything really these past days; he hasn't been sleeping either." I tell her, knowing she's talking about Niall.

"I don't him seeing me like this...I'm a disgusting mess. I feel so disgusting..." She says and the tears finally spill over her eyelids.

I reach out for her hand again but this time a lot slower and she sees me doing it and nods.

"Kylie listen to me. What happened with him you couldn't have stopped. I don't want you blaming yourself for this or thinking it was your fault at all. I know it was traumatic but Niall loves you more than anything and he doesn't care what about what that man did to you. He will love you no matter what and he wants to know you're okay. He isn't going to think you're disgusting or anything like that. I think you should see him and if you start feeling uncomfortable I'll take care of it, okay?" I say while rubbing my thumb over her hand lightly.

"Okay..." She mumbles.

I stand up and kiss her forehead lightly before walking out of her room and back down the hall to the waiting room. They all look up but I make eye contact with Niall and he immediately stands up and quickly walks over to me.

"I know you know this but be careful. She's extremely fragile and she's scared you hate her because of what he did to her. If you try to touch her, again be careful and don't get offended if she flinches and moves away. She needs to get warmed up to people touching her again while knowing we won't hurt her." I say and he nods understanding.

We enter her room and I sit down in the chair next to her bed again. Niall slowly walks over and pulls up a chair on the other side of her.

"Hi baby. How are you feeling?" He says while forcing a smile.

"Alright I guess." She says and looks down at her lap.

"Love, I want you to know that I still love you more than anything and I always will. You do know that right?" He tells her in a soft voice and she shrugs.

"I guess." She mumbles, still not looking up.

"Baby I could never stop loving you. Ever. No matter what happens I will always love you with all my heart and I'll be here for you throughout all of this. I'll be by your side every step of the way and help you as much as I possibly can."

Kylie finally looks up at Niall and I can see the tears falling down her face again. He reaches over towards her but slowly and she nods at him. When her thumb first touches her face, she flinches a little but doesn't pull away. He gently wipes away her tears with his finger and smiles at her.

"I love you." He says again.

"I love you too." She says and reaches out to him.

He stands up and slowly wraps his arms around her small body. She doesn't let go of her, or flinch, or pull away. She stays in his arms, sobbing.

Soon she pulls away and moves over in her bed. "Can you come lie with me?" She asks him quietly and Niall smiles widely.

He takes his shoes off and carefully crawls into bed next to her. He arms his arm around her protectively and kisses the side of her head.

"I'll let you two be for a little while. You need some time alone." I say and stand up. Before I leave I kiss her forehead again and say, "I'm so glad you're safe, I was so worried about you."

"I love you, Liam." She says with a small smile.

"I love you too, Kyles." I say returning the smile then turn around and walk out of her room while she cuddles with Niall

Yay she's okay!

So I think there's going to be like three more chapters and then an epilogue or something like that, I'm not fully sure yet!

Hope you liked it!
