Detective Malik (Z.M Fanfic)

Chapter 27.

I leave his hospital room with a cold feeling. I've never seen anyone die right before me actually. So this is all pretty new to me. I walk down the long empty hallway before me, trying to get to Niall's room as quickly as I can to not lead to any suspicion from Louis and Harry.

As I finally arrive, I knock briefly on the door before entering. I look around the room, everything looking the same. Niall still in a coma, and Louis and Harry chatting.

I greet them as I walk over to an empty chair next to Niall and take a seat, letting out a groan of pain from my lower back.

"Are you okay Malik?" Louis asks with concern. I nod, symbolizing that I'm okay.

"Uh yeah, I just hurt my lower back from when Samuel knocked me down on the wooden floor."

"Oh." Harry says looking down to his hands.

"Speaking of Samuel." Louis says shifting his gaze to me. "I heard he died a couple of minutes ago."

I raise my eye brow up in confusion. How did he know.

"Oh a nurse told us." He finished of, probably noticing my confused face. I nod, debating whether or not I should tell them that I went to have a little speaking with Samuel, and saw him die.

"Hey Louis?" I ask.

"Hmm?" He hums playing with a lock of Harry's curly hair.

"I.. I talked to Samuel right now before he died."

He stops playing with Harry's hair and looks at me. "Zayn I told you that you shouldn't have gone, it could've been risky."

"In what way? he was by himself."

"The real person who put him up to this could've been there, and he could've attacked you."

"There was no one there Louis." I roll my eyes.

"Okay fine." He says. "So anyway, what did you ask him?"

"I asked him if he would tell me who put him up to this."

"And what did he reply?"

"He said he would never tell me, because he promised and he wouldn't betray his best friend."

"Best friend?"

"Exactly my thoughts." I say.

"I wonder who.."

Louis is suddenly interrupted my seeing Niall shift in his bed. We all smile, but Harry the most. We all watch as Niall slowly starts fluttering his eyes open, revealing his ocean blue eyes.

"What happened?" He asks trying to sit up from his bed.

"You were in a coma." I smile sadly at the poor boy.

"For how long?"

I shrug. "A couple of weeks."

"Well shit." He says, making us chuckle.

"N-Niall?" Harry asks with tears starting to form in his eyes. Niall turns his head to his right he looks at Harry, suddenly a large smile forming.

"Harry." He whispers, now his eyes becoming watery. "It's really you." He says in disbelief. "I thought I lost you a long time ago mate."

Harry chuckles, with a tear falling down his cheek. "I can say the same." He smiles.
