Love Is War (One Direction FanFic)

Chapter 29: You broke her heart.

*Niall’s P.O.V*

It had been four days since Sam had caught Harry cheating on her, she was staying with me. I was beginning to get worried about her, she refused to eat, all she did was sleep, and sometimes I would hear her cry all over again. But I knew what I had to do, I had to be there for her, I always came to her when she needed me. I wanted to try my hardest to keep her happy, but nothing was working. I was angry at Harry, he tried to call her cell phone and text her a number of times, but all she would do is stare at her phone and not do anything. All of us were worried; her Dad was the most worried along with Danielle and El. I needed to talk to Harry, Louis had said he was going over to see him today, I told him I might tag along. I didn’t want to leave Sam, but I had to give Harry a piece of my mind, I decided to text Liam to tell Danielle and Eleanor to come stay with her while I was gone. I was too scared to leave her by herself. A half hour later Eleanor and Danielle were at my suite, El said that Louis was downstairs waiting for me. I told them that Sam was still in her usual spot, the bedroom sleeping. 

Louis and I had left the building and were heading to Harry’s, “so, how is Sam? Anything different since yesterday…” I could tell Lou was hoping she would be herself soon, but honestly I didn’t think it could happen. I have never seen her so depressed in my life, it seemed like everything caught up with her again, her mom, Harry, her dad, and school.

“No mate, she’s still the same. Last night she had a nightmare, and started asking for her Mom in her sleep, and I woke up, and she started shaking of course began crying again. I honestly don’t know what to do…” 

“I know. I guess we just need to wait, I kind of think you and her Dad should take her home now, because being here isn’t going to help her.” 

I nodded agreeing, and then I remembered something else I wanted to talk to him about, “Hey Lou?” He looked at me, “Sam’s worried about University, and she told me that she wants to get a scholarship for the London U, but she doesn’t think she can afford a nurse to watch her Dad while she’s gone, so she refuses to send an application in. So, I was thinking maybe I could send one in for her, and me and you could maybe pay for the house nurse since we’ve got quite a bit of money.”

Louis nodded, “yeah, that sounds like a plan. Try sending it as soon as you get home, and we’ll surprise it with her when school’s almost done.” 

Finally we were at Harry’s flat, I knew I had to stay calm, but it was hard. Louis had already made me promise not to do anything I’ll regret, I told him I was going to say some things but I’ll control myself. We got to his door, and Louis knocked, but no one answered. Oh no, I thought. Louis had even told me he hadn’t talked to him since he found Sam; he opened his door and walked in slowly. I followed him, and then I saw Harry. 

He was sitting on his couch with a blanket wrapped around him; he looked exhausted, depressed, and broken. Louis walked over and sat beside him, Harry didn’t even look up, I saw something in his hand, and it looked like he was looking down at it. I looked at him; I saw bags under his eyes, what was he holding? I wondered. I went and sat on the loveseat that was across from him. “Mate” Louis looked really concerned. I watched him carefully, he kept staring at the thing in his hands, and Louis looked at it and sighed. I saw a tear drop from Harry’s eyes.

Then I saw what it was he was holding, it was a picture, a picture of Sam and him from a while ago. They were laughing in the picture, he was holding her, and she looked really happy. He finally looked up at me; he stared at me for a long moment. I was a little uncomfortable, and then I heard him whisper, “Does she hate me?”

I didn’t know what to tell him, I couldn’t tell him yes, because I knew she did love him still, but I couldn’t tell him no, because I knew she hated him for what he had done. Then I knew what to tell him, I took a deep breath and spoke, “no, she still loves you mate. She just hates what you did to her.”
