Tears had already started as I got my clothes on. I changed out of the outfit Niall let me borrow and changed into my leather outfit and grabbed my jacket and realized I don't have a car with me. I raced back into the bedroom. I flipped back the comforter still in tears to reveal Niall without a shirt and saggy sweats. Apparently Niall had a six-pack and a little bit of chest hair growing on his pecs. I tapped on his stomach attempting to wake him. He groaned and rolled over so I shook his arm and whispered in his ear "Niall wake up!" he opened his beautiful blue eyes and mumble "Good Morning sunshine!" His face dropped. "Jesse what's wrong?" I began to cry even harder. I couldn't get any words out so I handed him my phone he used his left thumb to unlock the phone and read the messages. He locked my phone put it back in my boot and put his shirt back on. He got complete dressed and grabbed his keys and we both got in his car and sped through traffic. He cut what should have been a thirty minute drive into a fifteen minute drive to the hospital. When we go there he dropped me off at the door and I told him "Room 105." I slammed the door and ran inside. I didn't have time to wait on the elevator so I ran up the stairs to the second floor. When I got to his room Rae Ryan and Ashton were already there. A nurse in green scrubs was putting something on him. "What the hell happened?" I said as Rae hugged me. "He snuck out of the house last night and went to Wal-Mart and he bought a phone case that had a picture of you and him from last year on it and a 50 dollar starbucks gift card. He pulled out of the Wal-Mart parking lot and was hit on the passenger side by a speeding drunk. The driver that hit him died on impact. Avery's fine he's just in unconscious. They took an x-ray of his whole body and his knee cap is broken and popped out of place so he will be on crutches when he gets out." she told me. I walked over to him and sat on the side of the bed and started balling. "Is he alright?" I heard someone yell. It was Liam. Niall was right behind him. I ran to Niall and hugged him as hard as I could and cried on his shoulder. I still felt safe with Niall. "It's gonna be ok Jess. Avery will be fine." Niall told me and kissed me on the neck. I pulled myself together and walked back into his room. Liam looked more worried than I've ever seem him before. I walked over to him and gave him a hug. Liam was a slight bit taller than me so his beard scratched my face. "Rae told me about you and Niall and I just wanted you to know that I completely support you. I love you Jess." He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and I started to cry again. We all stood there for about ten minutes before the nurse came back in the room. "The doctor needs to run a few tests so you guys need to leave. You can go downstairs and wait in the gift shop or in the waiting room. The doctor will come down when he finishes and gets results." Ashton stayed in the chair next to the bed with his head between his knees. "Ashton we need to leave." I told him trying to get his head up. He let go of Averys hand stood up a hugged me. I could feel his body shake as he cried. "Jesse I love him. I don't want to leave him here alone." he continued crying. Wow this is shocking. "I know Ashton. Avery will be fine. Come down stairs with us so the doc can do his tests." I told him grabbing his hand giving him one more hug. Ashton and I walked out in the hallway together where the rest of the group was waiting for us. Niall waited for me and I walked up to him hugged him and whispered in his ear "Thanks for everything!" I kissed his check and grabbed his hand. I didn't want him to leave my side. "Never leave me Niall. Never." I told him. "Ever!" he responded. We got in the elevator am rode it down to the first floor. We went into the waiting room and sat and the couch I sat on the end and Niall sat next to me. "Rae do you have any earbuds with you? Or a charger?" I asked her. She picked up her bright red purse and dug around. The first thing she pulled out was a purple cord am a black wall plug. She handed me the charger and continued to dig in her purse. While she did that I plugged the cord in to the wall outlet right beside the couch and plugged my phone into the cord. She eventually handed me some ear buds I plugged them in to my phone and put one bud in my ear and the other in Nialls. I unlocked my phone with my password and opened my music app. I scrolled down to a playlist called "Songs that remind me of Niall" I clicked the playlist and hit shuffled. The first song that played was All that Matters by Justin Bieber. We listened
To three more songs Collide by Jake Miller, Can't fight this love by Austin Mahone, and Adore You by Miley Cyrus. Then the nurse came down to the waiting room. "Jesse! Avery is awake and he wants to see you." I grabbed Nialls hand and walked with him to the elevator. The nurse walked to the front desk instead of with us. When the door closed I looked into Nialls eyes. "Niall can I ask you something?" I spoke softly. He nodded his head. "Niall will you please be my boyfriend?" at that moment his gorgeous smile returned
And he started to cry. "Yes! Yes!!" Then our eyes met and as if we were one we leaned in to each other and our lips locked! Then the elevator dinged and we broke the kiss. We both smiled and our hands met and connected like puzzle pieces. Like they were meant to be together. We walked down the hall way to Avery's room. "Stay here I'll call you in here in a minute." he nodded and kiss my check. I let his hand go and opened The door. I began balling at the sight of Avery. I ran to him and hugged him. He hugged back. "I'm so sorry!" Avery told me now beginning to cry. "I was trying to get you something for your birthday and when I pulled out a drunk driver going 60 mph hit my passenger side. My car is totaled." Avery was sobbing now. I leaned forward and kissed his cheek. "Don't be sorry. I know everything that happened." I pulled my phone out and flipped it over and showed him the phone case. "All I want for my birthday is you to get better. I love you Avery!" I told him. He used the remote next to him to lift his bed to sit up. "Avery can I ask you something? It's a very personal question." I asked. "Go ahead." he said almost whispering. "Do you like Ashton? As a friend or more than a friend?" I asked.
