Chapter 5

Harry

"We gotta get her to the hospital, mate!!" Zayn shouted and picked Brielle's head up and I watched in shock, tears forming in my eyes. "Harry!!!" Michael shouted at me and grabbed my hand, pulling me into him for a hug then wrapping his belt around Brielle so she wouldn't lost too much blood I suppose. "She's gonna be okay! We just have to go!" I looked over and saw Louis, Liam, Niall, Luke, Calum, and Ashton back on their feet and beating the hell out of Charles and Ben. "Harry, GO." Niall yelled at me and I finally began to comprehend what they were saying to me. "She's still breathing but we may not have enough time!!" Zayn shouted again and unlocked the door of his car. Michael sat in the passenger seat and Zayn sat in the drivers seat while Brielle and I were in the back seat, her head laying on my lap and her body laying almost lifeless in the seat. "H-hharry.." She said with short breath. I shook my head no and gently began to rock her slowly back and forth. "Don't speak, love. Please..you'll be ok. I promise." She nodded and held on to her stomach then slowly grabbed my hand and put it on her stomach as well. I shut my eyes to block out the tears that were forming but I couldn't resist. The tears started flowing rapidly and she reached up slowly with her free hand and wiped them away for me. "The baby...it's ok." She said to me and I looked at her confusingly. How did she know? "I got shot in my leg..not my stomach. She's ok, Harry." A huge sigh of relief went through all of us and I hugged her, careful of her leg.

Brielle

"Check her pulse!" I heard someone scream when I opened my eyes and saw a bright light shining down on me. "Brielle stay with me now." I heard another woman's voice say to me and stabbed my arm with the I.V. "She hasn't lost much blood so that's good and she's awake. I don't know if she's conscious of what's happening with her though." I opened my eyes wider and blinked up at the nurse. "She's up!" She shouted to the doctor and he smiled and nodded. "Brielle, darling, this won't hurt a bit. Although you'll be on bed rest for awhile. Go on ahead and lay back and we'll start the surgery to get the bullet out of your leg." I nodded and slowly felt myself drift into a deep sleep.

Harry

"Do you want some coffee?" Zayn asked me and I shook my head no, incapable of speaking right now. "How you feeling?" Liam asked me as he sat beside me with his tea and patted me in the back. "Keep it together, Styles." Louis said and I broke down even more. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I began crying hysterically and swearing and yelling at myself for not being there for her. "It's ok to cry, Harry. To scream. None of this is your fault." He said and the rest of them nodded in agreement. "Mr Styles?" The nurse came from behind the door and I stood in front of everyone else. "Is she ok? Did the baby make it?" She lowered her head and read the papers that were in front of her. "She made it just fine. So did the babies." She said with a huge grin. "Congratulations!" I felt the lads cheer and give me high fives while I choked up and felt faint. "T-twins..twins." I asked again and she shook her head no. "Triplets"
