A few minutes earlier...

Callie's POV:

"Callie, can I talk to you?" I looked into the blonde guy's eyes. Damn, they're really blue. My gaze darted back to Jasmyne quickly. I squeezed the hand that I still gripped tightly in mine. When's she going to wake up? It doesn't matter really. I will be here when she does. No matter what. I didn't respond to Niall.

"Callie?" I sighed. Slowly, I glanced over to the boy who was sitting on her other side. Harry. The boy who caused all of this. I would beat the shit out of him if I didn't know how Jasmyne felt about him. No matter how many times she tries to deny it, she has feelings for him. I just don't know how deep they run. He seemed sorry though. At least, I can say that about him. He was muttering over and over words of remorse. So yeah, he seems sorry.

"Callie." Niall said again. I doubt two minutes will be too long right? I'll be right back. Plus if Harry tries anything, I'll be right outside. Waiting for him. Yeah, I'll go talk to Niall now.

"Alright." I stood up, releasing my friends hand before following him out of the hospital room. I still can't believe we're here. I mean we ran away from home. Now we're in the hospital. Things changed so quickly.

"What, Niall?" I asked as soon as I shut the door behind us. I got to get this over with. He sat down, patting the space on the bench next to him. I plopped down, fixing him with a light glare.

"What?" I asked tersely.

"I-" He looked down into his palms. "I just wanted to tell you something." I nodded slowly, urging him on. He met my eyes, blushing slightly, and then he continued.

"Do you remember us from school?"

"Duh."

"I remember you too." Huh? That's kind of creepy to be honest.

"Okay." I replied, drawing out the word. I shifted away slightly, trying to put as much space between us as possible.

"I mean like seeing you in the halls. I'm not a creep. I'm just surprised that you even know my name." He stated, letting his head fall a little. I watched a nurse pass by, her clipboard dangling for her fingertips.

"Why is that?"

"I just didn't think you knew I existed." He admitted cautiously. I narrowed my eyes at him. I don't have time for this. I need to get back in there.

"As much as I love hearing you talk about our past together, what's your point?" I asked. Yeah, I was being rude, but whatever. He's taking forever.

"I've had a crush on you for a really long time Callie." He stated, finally looking me in the eye. My surprise couldn't be disguised.

"Wh-what?" I exclaimed.

"I just wanted to tell you because I want to get to know you better and see if you could ever feel the same way."

Niall had a crush? On me? That's just ridiculous! I've never even talked to the kid. What is he going on about? He must be mistaken or confused or mentally insane! God, why does he have to bring this up right now? It's not a good time!

I looked away from Niall, who had scooted closer to me. "Look, I appreciate it and all, but you don't have a crush on me. We've never even talked before now."

He was about to respond when Harry came out the room. "She's awake." He said.

Damn it! I was supposed to be there. I shot up, ignoring the fact that Niall was about to speak. He can wait. Jasmyne can't.

"Okay." I replied quickly, moving to go inside. Harry caught my arm on the way though. He needs to let go. Right. Now. I turned to glare at him.

"Do you think she'll ever truly forgive me?" He whispered, looking down at me with sorrow filled eyes. I felt my gaze soften. My mind drifted to how easily Jasmyne forgives.

"Knowing her, she already has." I almost missed Harry shake his head, but I caught it. He seems really upset about something. Should I ask him about it? Nah, he's fine. He deserves whatever it is.

"In her heart. Will she ever forgive me there?" His tone displayed his desperation and I locked gazes with him. I shouldn't even answer him, but he seems so sad and like a little lost puppy. I can't help it. I want to help him, provide him with some form of comfort.

"I think she was never angry with you in the first place." I whispered. If Jasmyne is still the way I've always know her to be, she wouldn't be able to be angry with Harry for anything. Not for a long time anyway. She would give in too soon. Harry ran a hand through his curls frustratedly, but I had done all I could. I moved past him and entered the room.

***

"Callie, what happened to me?" Jasmyne inquired. I knew this question would come up. I still haven't told her the full extent of her injuries, hoping to save her from the truth. It would come out eventually though. Might as well tell her now. I got up and laid down next to her on the bed.

"Are you sure?" I asked, staring at the television across the room.

"Yes." She answered quietly. Sighing, I grabbed her hand.

"You didn't just fall onto the coffee table. A piece of glass went into your back." I looked away. "It was really deep and I wasn't sure what to do. That's why your here. The doctors still don't know what will happen now that it's out." Not too harsh of a truth, but it's still bad. I mean she was bleeding so much. I just don't know what happened because of it. I hope it's nothing.

"Could have been worse."

"Yeah."

"Callie?"

"Hmm?" I hummed.

"What should I do about Harry?" I knew this was gonna come up. I silently groaned.

"How do you feel about him?" I asked. It's really a stupid question. I know how she feels. It's not how she's supposed to. She's supposed to hate his guts, but instead she has lovey dovey feelings for him.

"I like him, Cal."

"I know." I sighed. "Why don't you let the pieces just fall where they may?"

Silence.

"Jasmyne?"

"You sounded so mature!" She gasped. I lightly hit her shoulder as both of us laughed. I did sound really grown up when I said that. That's so strange for me.

"Hey you know what, I'm in the same boat as you. Niall likes me and i just don't know what to do."

"So he was telling the truth!" She exclaimed. I turned to look at her.

"You knew?" She blushed and ducked her head, a smirk on her lips.

"Maybe."

"Bitch." I said jokingly.

She just rolled her eyes. I turned back to the tv.

"I don't think we should stay here Jas." It was true. The boys were here and who knows who else knows where we are. I mean we had to check into the hospital somehow. Maybe we should go to somewhere in Spain. I've never been there before.

"I was thinking maybe Barcelona?"

Silence.

"Dude, I wasn't even being mature there."

Still silence.

Beep. Beep. Beeeeeeeppppppp.

"Oh my god!" I looked over at my best friend, eyes closed, heart not beating.

"Jazzy!!!!"
