----------------------------------------------
**Abby's P.O.V.**

I slowly wake to the sound of a steady beeping noise. I moan softly as I try to turn on my side. I feel hands press me back on my back. "Stop.." I whine as I try to push the hands away. Hands.... I start screaming as I bolt up in my bed. But wait, this isn't my bed. I look around and see Liam, Louis, and Zayn surrounding me.

"Abby... It's okay. It's just us." Liam says softly as he touches my arm gently.

I flinch away from his touch. I whimper as I wrap my arms around myself. Every part of my body aches. I close my eyes trying to remember what happened last. Then I remember Niall and I... The sinking car... "Niall?! Is he okay?!" My voice croaks.

"He is fine. Harry and him went to go the food. Niall, Harry, and I managed to break the window at the back of the car." Liam said and sat back down in his chair.

"You weren't breathing when they got to the shore of the river. Good thing I knew CPR, even though I don't swim," Zayn chuckles softly then goes serious again. "You were pale, bruises, bleeding... You would've been awake longer if we hadn't found glass shards in your side. Why were there glass shards in your side?"

"I..." I start but I don't finish as I remember being thrown against the mirror and pictures in Alex's hallway. I cringe as I remember what happened. I remember my beating. Then I start sobbing as I remember them touching me and... I cover my mouth. "I think I'm going to be sick!"

Louis reaches down and grabs a trash can. He quickly handed to me. I didn't know I had anything to throw up. But I did as I threw up. Once I finished I covered my face, ashamed. I feel tears fill my eyes as everything replays through my head from that day. Right when Harry told me to leave to when I went to Alex's house. Then when I was drowning. "I-I'm so sorry..." I cry out through my hands.

"Why? Abby, why are you sorry? You didn't do anything? The roads on the bridge were slick and the car spun out of control. You got banged up pretty bad." Louis says to me and grabs my hand.

I freeze and I look up as the door opens. I see Niall freeze when he makes eye contact with me. My mouth is open wide. "Y-you lied? Why?! Why?!" I say frustrated at Niall.

"Abby, I didn't know if you wanted me to tell them. I thought you would want to talk about it first...." Niall said and I can tell he is telling the truth.

"Lied? What did he lie about?" Liam asks confused as everyone else.
Niall looks down away from everyone's stares.

"It's okay, Niall. You didn't know." I say softly to him.

"Can someone please explain?" Zayn asks quite annoyed.

"My boyfriend... Well ex-boyfriend... I went to his house to get my things from there and he wasn't home at the time. I was about to leave but then he showed up with a group of his friends, drunk..."

"Please tell me this isn't where I think this is going." Harry finally says something.

I look down in shame. I didn't want to see any of their reaction once I told them. "He-they all... Raped me...." I say softly, barely above a whisper.

All I see is a body getting up and storming out of hospital room. I look over quickly and see a mop of brown curls running out of the room. The door slam shut rather loudly as he disappeared. All the boys shot up and ran out after him right after they told me they would find him. Once they disappeared out of the room I slowly unhooked myself from the hospital monitors.

I got out of the bed slowly and let my bare feet touch the cold tiled floor. I tiptoe over to the door and open it. Luckily it didnt make a loud noise when I shut it quietly. I crept down the hall the opposite way of the yelling. I knew harry wouldn't go that way. He isn't stupid.

I took this hallway all the way to a door at the end. The only door in the hallway I slowly open the door and peak my head in. I gasp as I am pulled in by a pair of arms. I am about to scream when a hand covers my mouth. "Sh... It's me..." Harry's voice says in my ear through the darkness.

I nod and he uncovers my mouth. "Why here?" I ask him.

"No one goes in here..." He says softly.

"How do you know that?"

"My mum works here." He says and I can hear the smile on his tone. I just laugh and hug him. He instantly hugs me back. I am grateful for that. "I thought I lost you... You looked so lifeless on the beach..." Harry whispers in my ear.

I gulp at his words. "I wanted to be dead at the time. I couldn't take it. He.... He..."

"Sh... I know. You don't have to say it..." Harry says soothingly.

"Why did you run out, Hazza?"

"Hearing that you got hurt like that... It hurt me." He responds to me in a quiet tone. "I care about you a lot..."

I smile at his words. "I just want to be somewhere drama free for once..." I whisper.

"I can make that happen."

"What?" I ask confused.

"You're coming with the boys and I to a get away."
