Even If It Kills Me (One Direction and The Vamps Fan Fiction)

Chapter 25

Kaite's POV
I've realized that everyone is upset with James, not just me. James has lost the trust of his closest friends, I almost feel bad for the man who hurt me. Today Niall is visiting me in the medical room though, so I try to let the pity thoughts for James fade. I smile as Niall's stares into my brown eyes. His blue eyes twinkle and freeze my heart.

"How's my little Kiall?" He asks me, and I can't help but smile even though it hurts. "I'm glad you're better. I've been having nightmares every night about you not waking up. I realized I couldn't live without you. I'm sorry I didn't realize James was going to hurt you like that, I should've looked out for you better." He kisses me, and I feel as light as a feather.

"I'm glad I'm better, too, and I've missed you more than you could ever know. Don't be sorry about the James incident, either. It wasn't your fault at all," I inform him.

He smiles, and tucks a piece of hair behind my ear, and kisses me again. We were stopped by an excited Emma in the doors.

"KATIE!?!?!?!" Emma sprints towards me, and Niall stumbles backward by the speed of Emma, who jumped on top of me. She hugs me tight and my bruises are killing me, but how could I think of that when my best friend is hugging me, so happy.

"KATRINA!!!" Cat bursts through the doors, and sprints full ahead and jumps on the bed landing next to me, and hugs me along with Emma. I couldn't have asked for any better friends than Emma and Cat. They were always supporting me through the hard times in life, and I couldn't thank them enough.

Around 7pm, everyone was in the medical room, besides James which is understood. We laughed and ate pizza, and fell silent when Liam spoke up.

"Can she walk? She'll need to try sometime, since she's a little better," Liam was right. I needed to walk around, get used to everything again. All eyes were on me, and I take a deep breath.

"Let's do this," I tell Niall. He nods and comes by my side. I wrap my right arm around his shoulders, and he lifts me up on my feet. Emma comes by my left side, but I shake my head. She walks back in understandment.

"Okay, you and I, Katie, you and I," Niall tells me. I smile and put one foot in front of the other. Soon, he lets go and I'm walking all over the place.
Everybody claps and cheers and I laugh as everyone gives me a hug. When they finish, I see James by the doors. Niall and the other four members of One Direction surround me, protecting me.

"No, it's okay." I assure Niall. He looks at me and sighs, then finally nods. As I walk over to James, we both keep straight faces.

"What do you want?" I ask James quietly to keep our conversation private.

"I want you to know that I love you and picking Niall was a wrong decision." James whispers firmly.

"Wrong decision? Niall is-"

"You don't know Niall, Katie-"

"And you do?" I scoff at him. He's making me angry, and he knows it too.
"Please, Katie-"

"There is no please, Katie!" I scream. I don't care who hears, he's making me angry and making me angry isn't necessarily the best. "You hit me because you love me and I made the wrong decision? No, I made the right decision, James. You didn't." I push him out of the room and slam the door in his face.

I stare at the door for a few seconds, until turning around to see Niall holding out his arms with everyone else, even The Vamps. I smile and run into Niall's arms and soon everyone has given me a hug. Brad apologizes about James, and so did Connor and Tristan. I thank them for caring, and they smile.

I walk back over to Niall and ask him if we can watch a horror movie and cuddle tonight, since that's what he likes to do. He smiles and nods, and I find myself soon in my bed with him cuddling while watching a horror movie. It felt good to know I'm able to see everyone again.
