Something Great (Niall Horan)

Chapter 25 - Gone, But There

Chapter 25 - Gone, But There

§•Ashton's POV•§

Niall clings to me, sobbing into my chest. I rub his back, trying to calm him down. And I thought he was bad on the plane. Jezum, the fuck happened?

"Niall, I'll help you, I promise." I whisper to him. I don't intend to break that promise either.

"You can't help me, no one can." Niall manages out between sobs. Harry's crying into Calum, probably cause Niall finally lost it. I think Harry's losing it too though.

"I'll try my hardest though." I say, squeezing him tightly. The others may not believe this, but Niall is actually depressed. How they didn't notice it though. This ride is actually pretty long, like, 2 hours. I notice Harry starring at Niall, hurt showing in his eyes.

"I think Harry wants you." I whisper to Niall. He shakes his head, still sobbing. How much can someone cry? I mean, jezum Niall.

"I think he needs you then." I rephrase. Niall doesn't reply.

I slide us over a bit, and gesture for Harry to come over. Harry instantly takes a seat next to us. I start prying Niall of off me, but he only clings tighter. I glare at Niall, and push him off, into Harry. They instantly grab each other, and cry into each other. I slide in next to Calum, where Harry previously was.

"If you help Niall you're helping Harry." Calum whispers to me.

"Yeah, but Niall is..." I trail off.

"Gone." Calum finishes for me. I shake my head.

"No, he's still there, it's just gonna be hard to find him." I say. So, everyone else is either sleeping, or watching the scene in front of them. I glance to my other side, seeing Zayn sitting there. I should kill him, but Niall beat me to it.

"Zayn." I whisper, nudging him. He sleepily opens his eyes. He notices it's me, and jumps into Ashley. I roll my eyes.

"What?" Zayn asks wearily.

"Well, I know you didn't apologize to him yet, but is everything fine with everyone else?" I ask him. He nods.

"Ashley understood." Zayn nods.

"Ok." I nod. I look back over at Niall and Harry, and see they both fell asleep.

"Thank god." Me and Calum say. Liam laughs, he's the only other person up besides Zayn. Wait, Zayn fell asleep again.

"You want to explain what happened?" I ask Liam, pointing to Niall.

"He got mad about something, and finally lost it. He said he hated this world, and would rather die." Liam says, looking at the ground.

"Great." I mutter.

"He'll be in my room with me." I then say.

"Not like he would ever leave your room." Liam says.

"Wait, what about Harry's party?" Calum asks.

"Do it anyway, Harry deserves it. I'll get Niall out of my room at some point for the party." I say, Liam and Calum nod.

"I'm not having a party without Niall." Harry says, making us snaps our heads in his direction.

"I said I'd get Niall out for it." I repeat.

"He's not going anywhere unless he wants to." Harry says.

"You really are oblivious. He does want to, he's just scared of what might happen if he does." I say. Harry nods, and starts going back to sleep.
