Who Knew?(Sequel) Book 2

Chapter 25

*LAST CHAPTER I'M GOING TO CRY. VOTE AND COMMENT PLEASE*

(Melina's POV)

I turned around and dropped my gun putting my hands in the air. One of the officers ran over and grabbed the gun I dropped and handed it one of the other policemen and then grabbed my arm and walked me outside. Soon after I was led outside, Louis, Harry and Niall were brought outside too and then the medics went into to get Zayn and Liam. 

"Where did I shoot him? Where did it hit him?" I asked.

"His stomach." Louis answered. I nodded and kept quiet after that. The police brought us to the hospital in the back of their cop cars just so we could get checked out and then I assumed they were going to question us. 

We arrived at the hospital in 10 minutes and all four of us had to get examined. I was one of the last ones done due to them having to do another rape kit on me, and Niall was the last one to be put in our room. His injuries were the worst ones and he had to get a rape kit done also so that takes a while. 

When I was put in my room I saw that Louis was sitting in one of the chairs waiting and Harry was laying down in a bed hooked up to an IV. I was wheeled in and also got hooked up to an IV after they got me settled in the bed next to Harry. 

I sighed and looked at Louis. He was picking at the skin on his fingers and refused to look up. I looked away from Louis and turned my attention to Harry who was already looking at me. 

"I never knew all that happened to you, why didn't you tell me?" he asked.

"I don't know, I was eventually going to tell you but I feel like if I told you as soon as you got out of prison you would treat me differently and I didn't want that." I explained. 

Niall came in after I said that, being wheeled in and being put through the same process Harry and I went through. We all sat in silence no one wanting to talk anymore. A doctor came in and looked around trying to find someone. His eyes landed on me and he walked towards my bed. 

'What could he want with me?' I thought. 

"Ms. Palmieri, I have some news on the man you shot." I nodded my head wanting to hear what happened to Zayn. 

"Mr. Malik died on the operating table. The amount of blood he lost was extensive and he didn't make it through."

"What? Zayn's dead?" Niall asked in a weak voice. The doctor nodded and that set Niall off to burst into tears. 

"What about Liam? What happened to him?" I asked not really caring about Zayn.

"Mr. Payne is fine, his injuries aren't too extensive but that's all I'm permitted to tell you."

I nodded my head and looked at Niall, he had calmed down and now was just looking out the window that was in our room.  I sighed hoping that Niall was okay, Zayn was his first love and only love. I can only imagine how it felt for him to loose that in his life. 

After a couple minutes of uncomfortable silence a couple of police officers came in making me even more uncomfortable. I kept my eyes cast downwards but I had no choice but to look up when the pair of officers came over to my bed side. One was a woman and the other man, and of course they asked how I was feeling and if I was up to answering a couple of questions. 

I nodded my head and they pulled the curtain around my bed so that we could have some privacy without the others barging in on the conversation. I shifted in my bed so that I was in a sitting up position and paid attention to the officers in my presence.
