Fate's Identity

Chapter 42

A pounding in my head woke me up. I cringe at the brightness of the room as I open my eyes. I let out a moan and touch my forehead, feeling a bandage covering it. Memories flooded back, and I shot up from the bed I was resting in. "Ally!" I exclaim.

Zayn and Louis come to my side, and Zayn says, "You need to rest."

"Where is Ally?!" I ask, looking at him. "Is she okay? Tell me. Right now."

Louis holds onto my shoulder, and I turn to him. He was not giving me an assuring look, neither was Zayn.

"Ally will be alright, mate," Louis says. "You need to look after your health first."

"Will be?" I question.

Zayn sighs heavily. "Listen, you and Ally both took a hard hit. The doctor said that you guys were lucky. And that you didn't have any serious harm." He slowly closes his mouth, not wanting to say anything further to me.

"What about Ally?" I ask, getting angrier by the second.

"The doctor said that she made it pass the danger zone, but she isn't waking up anytime soon," he explains.

"So she's alright?" Zayn gives me a nod as a response. A smile forms on my lips. But that quickly fades as I remember the last couple of faces I saw before I blacked out. "Where's Jesy?"

"She and Jade are held at the police station for God knows what," Louis explains. "Jesy was the one behind the wheels while Jade was in the passenger seat. From what I've heard, they were bickering and didn't see anyone in the front until they had ran into you two."

That would explain why the car was moving back and forth. They must have been fighting over the wheels or something.

Zayn speaks, "Niall found you two out on the floor, and he called for ambulance. Sonia got a phone call yesterday about the accident, so we rush to the hospital. Right now, she's home, cooking you some food."

I nod my head, slowly feeling a stinging sensation hitting my upper neck up to my forehead. I groan at the pain. I ease myself and says, "I want to see her. Take me to her."

"No can do," Louis says. "You took a hard hit and must rest. You don't have a lot of energy anyway."

"I have enough to see her," I reply. "Take me. Or I'll do it myself."

They both stand still, not moving a muscle. I begin to uncover the sheets before Zayn clears his throat and speaks, "Alright. We'll take you, but Camila, Dinah, Normani, and Niall are all watching over her. Just to warn you. And they don't seem to be the most welcoming right now."

"I can risk it," I respond. Zayn and Louis take a step back. I uncover the sheets and slowly set my bare feet on the cold floor. I prop my hands against the edges of the mattress and lift myself up, getting a head rush along the way. I wince and lost my balance. I grab a hold of the mattress once more.

"You alright?" Louis asks.

I nod my head. "Yeah, just a little head rush," I answer. I pick myself up and begin to limp out of the room. I rely on the walls to help me. Zayn and Louis offer their help, but I didn't want it. They guide me to Ally's room, which wasn't that far from mine.

We took a turn at a corner, and I see Dinah, Normani, and Camila waiting patiently outside. Tears were flowing out of Camila's and Dinah's eyes. Normani looked like she wanted to cry. Their eyes dart to mine, and then, they shift them to Zayn and Louis. Camila stands up and runs into Zayn's arms. She quietly sobs into his chest as Zayn tries to ease her worries.
