Authors Note: Ok so I dont know that much about the doctors office and getting your cast off and stuff like that, but If I get something wrong, please let me know so i can fix it! THANKS!! :D :D

Today is the day, when I finally get my cast off! It's been a couple weeks since Aiden's funeral, and  my leg is finally healed enough to get the cast off. Niall is going to be here in a couple minutes to bring me to my appointment.

Niall and I have grown really close in the past couple weeks. He's so sweet and always there for me. I don't know what I would do without him.

Ding goes my doorbell. I get up, walk to the door and open it. It's Niall. "Ready to go?" he asks. "Yep!" I say with a smile. "Do you want me to carry you down the steps again, or are you capable of going down by yourself?" he asks. "well," I say "I am capable of doing it by myself, but its ok, you can carry me!" I say with a grin.

Niall laughs, and picks me up. Woah, why am I just now noticing how muscular he is? His strong arms are underneath my legs and back, and my side is pressed up against his rock hard abs. "Do you work out?" I blurt out. "Yeah......" he says "Why?"

I blush, not meaning to say that out loud. "You impressed?" he asks with a smirk. I smack his arm playfully and he laughs, then walks me down the steps and puts me in the car. I buckle up, and we start on our way to the doctor's.

Once we get there, he gets out and opens the door for me. I get out, shut the door, and we start walking to the building. I feel a hand slide into mine, I look down and Niall is holding my hand. I get butterflies in my stomach, and I look up at him and smile. At first he looks uncertain, but when he sees I'm smiling at him, he smiles back.

His hand feels warm and soft, and I like the way it feels with mine. I think I'm starting to like Niall as more than a friend, but I'm not sure he feels the same way. We walk up to the building and go inside.

We walk up to the front desk and check in, then take our seats in the waiting room. "You excited?" Niall asks me. "Yes! I cant to wait to get this thing off! my leg will be free!" I say with a laugh.

Niall randomly breaks into song "Free at Last! Free at Last! Thank God Almighty I'm Free at Last!!" he belts out. I giggle and notice everyone in the waiting room is staring at us. 

A nurse walks out. "Ciara Walsh?" she calls. Niall and I get up, link arms and walk towards the doorway that the nurse is standing in. "That's me!" I call. "Follow me please" says the nurse, and she leads us down the hall, into a big room.

"Ok so first, we will get your cast cut off, and then we will take your finaly X-Ray. Please wait here for the doctor." says the nurse and leaves me and Niall alone in the room. "Wait... what does she mean get my cast cut off?" I ask. "I bet theyre gonna come in here with a big scary chainsaw!" exclaims Niall. "And if the cast wont come off properly, they'll have to cut your leg off along with it!" he teases.

I glare at him and he laughs. Just then, the doctor comes in with a big, scary looking, circular saw. "Oh Lord help me!" I exclaim. The doctor and Niall both laugh. "Hey you wouldn't be laughing if you were me!!" I exclaim, which just makes Niall laugh harder. "Don't worry it's safe, I've done this many times." the doctor reassures me.

"Ok so lets get started! please lay down on the table" the doctor says to me. "Let's just get this over with." I mumble and than lay down. The doctor turns on the saw, and I start freaking out. Niall can tell I'm scared, because he walks over and holds my hand. I relax the tiniest bit.

Then the doctor starts working on my cast with the saw. I'm frozen with fear, thinking that he's gonna accidentaly cut my leg open. Now I'm gripping Niall's hand as tight as I can, and  I'm still extremely nervous.

 After about 10 minutes, the cast is finally off. "See that wasn't so bad!" says the doctor. "I guess...." I say. "Ok I'm going to go prepare your X-Ray, I'll be right back" he says then leaves the room. I realize I'm still gripping Niall's hand so I let go.

"Hallelujiah!" he exclaims " I was starting to think that I might be needing a cast!" he teases while shaking his hand. "sorry!" I say feeling embarrassed. "ah don't be sorry I'm just teasing you." he says, winking at me.

The doctor comes back in and tells us that my x ray is prepared, so we follow him into the X-Ray room. "I'm going to have to ask you to step out, sorry" he says to Niall. "It's fine. I'll be waiting outside Ciara!" he says, and steps out.

I sit down on this bench thing, and move my leg in different positions, so they can take the X-Rays. Once the X-Rays are taken, they say they will have the results back in about 15 minutes, and I can wait in the waiting room.

I go back out, and Niall is there waiting. I tell him that we can wait in the waiting room. we go back to the waiting room and sit down. "So, how does your leg feel?" Niall asks me. "It feels weird, but I guess its a good feeling!" I say. Niall bursts out in song again, "Oh Oh sometimes, I get a good feeling yeah!!" he belts out. "Niall!" i giggle. "stop! people are staring!"

Niall rolls his eyes at me, but laughs. I love how I can feel comfortable with him, like there's nothing I can do that would make a fool of myself around him. That's why I love him so much. as a friend,and maybe something more.

I'll never be able to tell him how I feel though, because I'm pretty sure he doesn't feel the same way. "Ciara Walsh" a doctor calls, interrupting my train of thought. Niall and I stand up and walk over to the doctor. "We have your X-Ray results, and the bone is 100% healed! You can head on your way if you'd like" says the doctor. "Thank You!" I say. I pay the bill, and then me and Niall start heading home.
