"I-I got raped?" The blondes voice shook.

"Yes. I brought you here to make sure that bastard didn't give you a damn disease!" The dark haired boy shouted.

The older boy paced back and fourth muttering swear words and rubbing his forehead.

The blonde's eyes were dull. The blue crystal eyes were glassy and lifeless. Tears trickled down his cheek as the dark haired boy turned to face him.

"Just tell me what happened." The blonde's voice came out in a whisper.

Zayn deeply exhaled and played with his fingers.

"Okay-" he got up and rested his clammy hands onto the younger's rising stomach. "You were having problems at home, you know, you were stressed and wanted to get out." The older boy took his looks away and concentrated onto the patterns on the floor and sniffed.

"I-i took you to the club Sex Whispers and ...." He reattached his gaze to Niall. The blonde's eyes were widen in anticipation, wondering what happened next. "a-and the main stripper raped you." He croaked.

"Where were you?" The blonde's eyes enlarged from rage.

"I-I w-was...." Zayn looked around the room walls like they would give him any answers.

Saved by the door.

A French manicured hand crept into the crack of the door and pushed it wide enough for her to peek her head in.

"Hello Mr. Malik." The brunette girl said.

"Hello Nurse Calder." Zayn said while hugging her.

Nurse Calder escaped after the hug and gasped.

"Mr. Horan! You're up! How do you feel?" Her eyes soften as her hands made way to Niall's cold ones.

"Just like anyone would who just found out they've been raped." The blonde said sharply.

The nurse frowned and tried to look into Zayn's eyes for answers.

"O-oh. We'll I need to take you in for some questions." The nurse plastered a smile on her face.

"Okay, just let me get up and-" the blonde got interrupted.

"Can I come too?" Zayn asked shyly.

"Sorry this is just a one-on-one to see what Mr. Horan remembers from that night." The nurse pouted.

Zayn began to chew on his bottom lip and helped Niall out the bed.

"Meet me in room 480 once you put pants on." The nurse blushed then left.

"Zayn, hand me my clothes, please?" The blonde asked.

Zayn nodded and handed him a gray hoodie, dark jeans, and his shoes.

Niall slipped in his clothes and went to go search for this room leaving Zayn in his chair hiding his face in the palm of his hands.

"What the hell?" Niall spoke.

Nurse Calder poked her head out the door from room 480. "Right here!" She motioned her hand inside the room.

"Tell me what you remember." The nurse leaned in to hear Niall.

"If I remembered anything, don't you think I would have told you." His voice came out almost inaudible. The nurse softened her eyes and rubbed Niall's knee.

"Just please try." He voice sounding hurt.

Niall sighed but closed his eyes and sunk back into the sofa.

"I remember ... Coming home from work." He said with his eyes still closed.

"Good, good. Where do you work." The nurse smiled while picking up her pen.

"I work at a diner." Niall said. He remembered getting a raise from his extremely strict boos. He remembered driving home excited to tell his boyfriend about the raise.

"I remember.... L-Liam." Niall croaked. The nurse wrote that down but then frowned.

"Who is that sweetie?" She asked quietly.

Niall's eyes squeezed tighter and he exhaled sharply. He remembered going home expecting to see the tall tan bit with soft brown eyes waiting for him to come home. Shower him with kisses, nuzzling into his neck, smells of cologne and biscuits mixed.

But no. He saw a note in the counter and an emptier flat.

'I can't do this anymore -Liam x'

Niall's eyes shot open and covered his face.

"He's my ... E-ex." Niall let his tears fall from his eyes as the nurse dropped the board to cuddle the blonde and to stroke his hair softly.
