Hailey's POV

The girls, guys, and I are at Emma's today for a pool party. Emma usually does this after everyone has had a busy period like we've had the last month. All we do is hangout at her house with no phones. Just everyone enjoying themselves.

Everyone is either sitting around the pool or in the pool. I notice Zayn get out of the pool and walk behind Emma then he picks her up and walks toward the pool.

"What are you doing?" Emma asks.

"You look like you could use a dip in the pool" Zayn says as he carries her to the pool.

"ZAYN PUT HER DOWN NOW." I yell.

"As you wish." He say and drops her in the pool and she immediately starts shaking and breathing rapidly.

"SHIT...SOMEONE GET HER OUT." I yell and Travis jumps into the pool, wraps Emma around him, and pulls her out. Once she is out of the pool I run up to her and put my hands on my face so she has to look at me.

"Emma look at me. Focus on me right now. You need to slow your breathing. Nobody will hurt you okay. Just breathe. You're fine. You are safe Emma. Just breathe." Emma finally controls her breathing then gets very sleepy and passes out. "I need help getting her to her bedroom." Justin comes over and picks her up bridal style and we head to Emma's room.

Once there I grab a towel from her bathroom and then Justin goes and stands outside the room. I take her out of her swimsuit, dry her off, and put her in a t-shirt and booty shorts. After she is clothed I put her under the covers then leave the room and walk down stairs.

"You are a monumental idiot. If you weren't Gigi's boyfriend I'd beat the living shit outta you." I say when I see Zayn.

"I know alright. I already got that speech from the others." Zayn says.

"Oh I wasn't going to give you that speech. I was just gonna kick you in the dick."

"Lets not do that."

"Why did you do that? Have you ever wondered why she never gets into the pool or why she only takes showers."

"No I di-" Zayn goes to say, but I cut him off.

"Have you ever wondered why she has to have a medical marijuana pen? Or why it's hard for her to even fucking drink water?"

I was going to continue laying into him, but there is a blood curdling scream coming from Emma's room making all of us run to her room.

"Please. Just stay away. I won't do it again." Emma says when we get to her room.

She is backed up into a corner in her room and sitting down with her head between her knees.

Since this has happened before I know what to do so I FaceTime Ash.

"It's happening again." I say when she picks up.

"Show me." Ash says.

I carefully walk towards Emma and show her the phone.

"Emma...Emma look it's Ash." I say and Emma looks up.

"A-Ashy?" Emma says.

"Hi sweetie." Ash says.

"Ashy where are you?"

"I'm in Orlando."

"A-and where am I?"

"You are in your house in LA."

"I am?"

"Yes."

"Am I safe?"

"Yes Sweetheart."
