The Infection ~ A One Direction Fanfic

Chapter 6~ Unbearable Pain

                                         Kes' P.O.V

"Ugh, Niall where are we going now?" I asked him. All I said this morning was 'ow my side' and now he's taking me somewhere..the hospital maybe?

"The hospital. I can't risk you getting hurt again." He said, was that a tear I saw fall from his cheek? He quickly wiped the tear and slammed on he brakes.

"Ow!," I said as my head lurched forward, "Niall! What was that?"

"Sorry, I didn't see the red light...are you ok?..you're bleeding! Oh god." he said, touching my forehead. Bleeding? Where? I felt a warm trickle run down my cheek, and felt a cut on the side of my forehead. Niall grabbed some tissue from the glove box and wiped my head.

"Niall, the light's green.." I said, Niall drove over to the side of the road and un-did his seat belt. He turned to me and kept wiping the cut.

"Sorry, sorry" He kept saying, as I winced in pain.

"I can do it myself Niall." I grabbed the tissue and pressed it to my head. Niall brushed the hair out of my face and tucked it behind my ear. I looked over at him and he was looking into my eyes, and kept muttering sorry. I smiled and pat his shoulder to reassure him. Suddenly he had this look of pain on his face. "Niall? Niall, what's wrong?" I said grabbing his arm.

"My..my..," he quickly opened the car door and puked on the road.

"Niall!" I got out of the car to see if he was ok, and sure enough, he was puking out blood again. "Niall, are you alright? Here...take-" he grabbed my hand and looked up at me.

"Kes, stop. You're only going to hurt yourself again. Worry about you, not me." he looked my straight in the eyes, then pulled me closer, putting his hand on my waist.

"Niall, what do-" he kissed me. His lips were warm and gentle. I could feel his tears on my cheeks as he pulled away. He rubbed the tears as I started to cry.

"Shh," he said, "Come one, get in the car, and we'll drive to the hospital." I climbed into the car, buckled my seat belt and grabbed Niall's hand. Niall rubbed the space between my thumb and finger, and I slowly drifted into another sleep.

                                                                 Niall's P.O.V

I stopped at another red light. The 5th one since I'd kissed her. Now I'm holding her hand as she's sleeping, her head rested against the window, her long curls framing her face perfectly. I barely noticed the light turning green, until a heard a honk from behind me. Oh great, a crazy driver. I quickly drove away, speeding up as a drove. The car behind me was driving faster to..what are they doing? I slowed down a bit, so they would stop..but they didn't. They kept coming closer, and closer. I quickly tried to drive away, but I wasn't quick enough. Kes. I had to shield Kes. I unbuckled my seat belt as quickly as I could and threw my body protectively over Kes, just as I heard a crunch and the car lurched forward. I could barely see, we were spinning so fast. I felt the car flip into the air. Then I blacked out.

                                          Harry's P.O.V

There they were! At the stop light. I drove up behind them and honked my horn, just as the light turned green. He started to drive quickly away. What was he doing? I drove faster to catch up with them, but he kept driving faster. I honked my horn a few more times and saw him slow down a bit. I calmly stepped on the brakes to slow down but..they weren't working. The brakes are shot and I'm going 100 MPH. I had to slow down! "NIALL!!!" I shouted hoping he would hear me. I saw him climb to the passenger seat..Kes! Oh no! I was going to crash into my band-mate and my little sister. I had to do something, I turned to wheel hoping to miss him but it was too late. I smacked into the rear of the car sending it spinning straight forward. I spun out once and face them again. I quickly climb out of the car,  just in time to see their car flip over and roll 3 times into the ditch, landing upside down.

"NO!" I shouted running over to the crash. As I got closer I saw smoke, and knew the car didn't have long before it would start on fire. I had to get them out. I pulled out my phone and quickly called the ambulance. I hung up, got down on my knees and crawled to one of the windows. I couldn't tell if it was the driver, or passenger window, all I could see was shattered glass and smoke. A hand! "Niall?!" it was Niall, and he was banging on the window.

"Get back!" I yelled kicking in the glass. I pulled him out and helped him to his feet.

"Are you ok?!" I asked, looking at his cuts.

"K-Kes." he stuttered pointing to the car. I ran to the other side and smashed the window in. I couldnt see her. I could only see glass, blood..and her arm. I grabbed her arm hoping to pull her out before the car started on fire. I couldn't pull her, she was squished under the roof of the car. "NO! No...no! Kes!" I heard the sirens of an ambulance, fire truck and police cars.

"GET OUT OF THE WAY!" I hear a paramedic yell. I felt a hand on my shoulder pulling my back.

"NO! She's my sister! I have to help her!" I yelled to them. It was useless. They didn't listen.

"Niall!" I cried as I ran over to him, grabbing him into a hug and crying on his shoulder. "It's all my fault. I should've listened to you, Niall, I should've" he patted my shoulder.

"Shh, Harry. It's not your fault. It'll be ok." he tried to sooth me.
