Dripping with Blood
Chapter 6
**Niall POV**
I'm so embarressed about what happened at school. I'm never like that... am I? No... Am I? No... it's just Mels. She does that to me. After what happened, for the next few days, neither of us mentioned it. Until yesterday, she spotted me, stormed up to me and kissed me. I still remember the rest of the boys shouting "Well, it's about time...". I smiled gently to myself. My phone rang and lit up my room, blasting my ringtone. The caller ID said 'Mels <3' and I rushed to pick it up. "Hey, babe!", I said. "Niall?", came an unfamilliar voice. I furrowed my eyebrows. "Who's this?", I asked, confused. "It's Melinda's mother. I just thought you should know that she was admitted to A&E (A/N: Accident and Emercency) a few hours ago. She wants to see you", she whispered. My face drained and my eyes went wide. "W-What? I-Is she o-okay", I stuttered. "Yes... she's fine now", she replied calmly. "I'll be there soon, bye", I hung and and raced to my car, leaving a note for my mum for when she got home. I drove to the hospital, tears streaming down my face. Questions were running through my head. Did she hurt herself again? Is she going to die? Is it because of me? I finally reached the hospital and wiped my tears before getting out of the car. I walked up to the front desk and found out where she was. Floor 3, Room 26. I rushed to her room and knocked quietly on the door. "Come in", came a weak, strained voice.
**Mels POV**
I was sitting up in my bed, when there was a knock at the door. "Come in", I whispered. In came a very worried Niall and I smiled gently. My parents left the room and went out in the waiting hall thingy. He sat down on the chair next to my bed and reached out to hold my hand. "What happened?" he whispered after awhile. I sighed. "I fainted, that's all", I lied. "Mel... please. What happened?" he asked. My heart dropped and I looked away from him. "Please", he begged. "I had a shower, and when I went to make it a little hotter, I made it too hot, and it was boiling. It should have scorched my skin. I didn't feel it, though. I could see that it was hot, because there was steam everywhere and my skin was really red. But I couldn't feel it. I got out, and got dressed. I felt my skin tighten and I felt dizzy and sick. Then... I woke up here", I explained. "So... you didn't... you know", he asked. I looked at him. "I didn't hurt myself if thats what you mean. I haven't done that since you first kissed me", I blushed. He smiled widely and held my hand tighter. "Really...?", he asked hopefully. "Really, really", I confirmed. He stood up, no leting go of my hand, and leaned down and kissed me. it wasn't a kiss of passion, but one born from love and the promise of forever. I sighed and he stopped kissing me. He accidently leaned on my leg and I winced. He retracted him hand quickly and looked at my questionally. I gently moved the blanket to reveal my legs, which were covered in burns. He sighed and held my hand even tighter while I replaced the blanket. I didn't know that was there. I smiled and realised what had just happened. I felt that, I felt it when he accidently hurt me. I can actually feel it! I smiled up at Niall, who was looking guilty for hurting me. I can't believe I actually felt it... and it felt bad. I grinned. It felt terrible! This is great! I probably sound crazy right now but this is good. If I can feel the pain, and it hurts, then maybe... just maybe... I can get better.
