The back of my head was pulsating when the itching of white, paper sheets woke me up. I slowly opened my eyes to an unfamilliar surrounding. The room was dark, and the only light was coming from the turned on machines on my left, and the open door, a few meters in front of me. The rushing people I saw trough the door were all wearing white coats. The paper sheets, the machines, people wearing labcoats... I'm in a hospital. That discovery frightened me. But the rustling in the far corner of the room frightened me even more. As I watched more closely I saw something moving. Then the painkillers stepped in and I fell asleep again. Warm breaths woke me up the next morning. Actually, I didn't know what time was it. I think I saw the moon when I woke up the last time, or maybe the drugs just played tricks on me. Everything slowly started coming back to me. I'm in a hospital. My head hurts. I fell in the house and blacked out. I was on the phone with Eleanor... But, how did I get here? Someone's breaths became uneaven. I opened my eyes and saw Harry's messy hair not one inch away from my face. I moved my numb arm in attempt to scratch my leg. He looked up to my hands.
-Harry?- I whispered.
-Sara!- he shouted and kissed my forehead, but I trapped his lips. That completely woke me up. He tore his lips away from mine. -No, not now.- a tear filled his eye.
-Why?- he got up and started twiching his hair.
-Because, Sara. You scared me to death!- his voice was loud.
-I don't even know what happened.-
-You had appendicitis, dammit.-
-What?- I sit up.
-I was coming home from the airport and Eleanor called me. She heard you dropping your phone when she called you, and she called the ambulance. I almost had a carcrash when I heard that.- he sat on the chair next to me trying to calm down.
-But, I'm okay.-
-You were unconscious for three days.-
-But I'm fine now, Harry!- now I yelled at him. He was hiding his tears. -Harry, look at me!- he glanced at me before looking down again. I tried to grab his face with my hands, but he was standing to far away and I almost fell, but he cought me just in time. His eyes were painfully red when they looked at me.-I'm fine.- I whispered.
-Knock, knock.- Eleanor and Louis were at the door. -Can we come in?-
-Ofcourse you can, Lou.- El hugged me, and Lou pat Harry's shoulder.
-How are you?- she asked.
-I'm okay.-
-That's what you said the last time, and you spent three days in a hospital bed.-
-Actually, I woke up... I just don't know when.- Louis whispered something into Harry's ear in the moment when Niall and Lucy's heads appeared on the doorstep.
-Hi!-
-Lucy!- I screamed.
-Hello to you too.- Niall sighed with his hands in his pockets.
-Hi, Niall.- I smiled. -Before you say anything, I'm fine.-
-I didn't say anything.- Lucy said with a high voice. -I brought you a chocolatte.- she pulled a purple Milka chocolatte from a white bag. -I know caramel's your favorite.-
-Thanks.- I hugged her. The room filled out quickly. Perrie and Zayn, Liam and Danielle, Lux and Lou, even Paul came to see me.
-I'll see you soon.- I waived to Eleanor and Lucy as they walked out the door.
-Finally alone...- Harry whispered into my ear as he laid next to me on the tiny hospital bed. -I'm sorry I yelled at you. I was just so freaked out... I left you alone in that house. If Eleanor didn't call...- he gasped. I hugged him, not letting him go from my grasp. -Look at me,- he said. -I should be comforting you. Not the other way around.- a shy little smile flashed from his face. He put his arms around me and kissed my head. He started singing ''Nobody Knows'' and ''The Way You Look Tonight'', just like on the X-Factor.
