"Ok and please go easy on him" I say to Harry's physio as we approach his room.
"Well today is just an introduction, nothing physical. We have a policy when the patient is ready we start." She says.


"Nice to meet you Harry, I'm Charlotte, and I will be in charge of your rehab" She says .
"Nice to meet you, sorry I can't see you talking." He replies as I stand back of the room.
"That's ok, in time that will change."
"so can you please describe to me what you see?"

He blinks his eyes a few times, "Umm I can only see black, just pitch black like a midnight sky." He remains calm as possible.
"Ok no need to worry that is normal." She writes on her clipboard. "Normal" Harry reacts, "you think any of this is normal. I will never ever be normal again" He raises his voice.

"Your right I'm sorry all of this is all new to you." She kindly replies "did you maybe want to try getting out of bed?"
"NO!" he shouts but I remain in my position. "Sorry no not today."

"That's ok, I'll be back tomorrow. Harry remember these things take time, we will at a pace your comfortable with." She smiles at me then leaves the room.

I remove from the wall where my back was leaning and get the door handle. "Lyla" he calls my name and I turn to face him, "how did you know I was here." I walk a bit closer to him.

"I recognise your scent, your perfume."
"Oh" I blush a little even tough he can't see it, "your blushing aren't you" he guesses.
"yea I am" I whisper, "you always blush when someone compliments you." He remembers.

I take a seat, "Harry I need you to look at me when I say this."
"I'm on your left" I tell him.

"I am so, so sorry this has happened to you."
"It's not your fault Lyla." He interrupts. "I know but everything you have done for me, I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for you, you gave me a second chance at life Harry." I sincerely say.

"Um can you leave, I'm a bit sleepy and might take a nap." He dismisses me.
"yea of course." I stand up and leave him, I don't blame him though all of this is so overwhelming and with the medication his on he doesn't exactly have a clear mind at the moment.



I'm at the desk doing some paperwork I have checked on harry a few times and he is sound asleep. "Hi I'm here to see someone" someone says but my head is still down at my papers.
"Yes who were you hoping to see?" I keep my head down trying not to sound rude.

"Umm Harry Styles." My eyes look up and I nearly gasp for air.
I stand up "you need to leave now."
"Why I need to see if I did good job messing with lover boy." They say
"It was you?" I question. "Ahh very smart Lyla, yes it was me but looks like I didn't do enough damage."
"Go now before I call security."

They leave.



I then rush to Harry's room making sure he is ok after that disturbing encounter I just had. He is fine sound asleep, while I'm here I check his temperate and blood pressure as silent I can be.
I can't believe this, this is now literally all my fault. Harry's car accident, him being blind is all my fault. I shed a few tears and I hear some moaning on his side, his eyes flutter open and wipe some tears away.

"Sorry I woke you, I just had to check your BP." I say taking the cuff off his arm.
"All good". I put his file down and begin to walk out, "Lyla wait." I stop "This isn't your fault, please know that." He says making my heart break.

"It is Harry" I tear up. "You wouldn't be in here if it wasn't for me, I umm" I tuck a piece of hair behind my ear. "What are you talking about?" he whispers.
"You don't remember the accident do you?" He shakes his head.

"It was Jack Harry" I reveal. "He got a tip you were at the airport and deliberately drive your car off the road." I cry.

"Are you serious." He stares down the wall. "I'm so sorry Harry." I can't escape my tears. It should be in that bed not him.

"I'll leave now." I say

"How you feeling today Mrs Hammer?"
"A little bit sore still." She says as I left the sheet and check on her dressings.
"Well it's only day four of your surgery it's normal" I say
"Bp is good" I smile and record it on her file and her door opens. "Hey nan, sorry I'm late there was. oh who is this?" I look at the must say attractive guy waking with coffee tray in his hand and sit beside his grandmother.

"Oh honey this is the nice looking nurse I was telling you about. Lyla this is my grandson Zayn. Zayn Lyla, Lyla Zayn."
"Nice to meet you" I flash a smile. "Well I better get back to work" I say putting the pen in my pocket. "Ill check on you later," I smile. "Thank you dear" Mrs Hammer says. "See you later Lyla" Zayn replies as I walk out.


I smile as I feel out the surgery board. "Ah oh. what's that smile for." Lucy says as she grabs a marker and writes on the board, "What is smiling a crime now?" I sarcastically respond.
"No it's not, but it's good to see you smile, haven't been doing that a lot lately?" Her pager goes off, "gotta go, keep smiling." She walks away.





I sit at the desk and go through these endless papers, I run both hands through my hair, then tie up my hair in a messy bun. "Hey looks like you could use this" I look up at it's Zayn with a cup of what smells like coffee. "Thanks" I take it from his hand, "no worries" he winks and leaves. I see a light buzzing and it's coming from Harry's room. I quickly get up leaving my coffee get up and go in his room.

"Everything ok in here" I ask. "His complaining about a headache" Anne touches Harry's forehead. "I'm fine Mum." Harry moans. I get the little pen torch from my pocket. "Harry I'm going to flash a light in your eyes just to make sure ok." He doesn't respond, I hold the torch and move it left to right.

"Is he ok?" Anne asks standing up. "Yea all good, I'll be back with some meds"

I go to the medicine room and find some nurofen for him. I walk out and bump into someone. "Sorry."
"My bad babe" Zayn says. "You look like you need a rest." He says.
"Yea you don't really rest on this job" I chuckle, "Sorry but I have a patient who needs attending." I highly brush past him and walk away and take a quick glance back where he is looking at me.

"Ok Harry I have some Nurofen here, I'll give you one for now, and if needed take the other in about" I look at the clock. "About an hour ok. Here's your water" I hold the cup to his mouth, but he waves it out of my hand making it spill on the floor, I go to bend down but Anne gets there first.

"Harry stop being childish." She says throwing the cup in the bin getting him a new one.
"I'll leave these here." I put the pills on his table
'sorry' Anne mouths. I just weakly smile and shake my head.

I get back to the desk exhausted and emotionally drained I pick up my much needed coffee and written on it : Other one got cold, here's another ;) I smile and take a much needed sip.


I rest my head on the desk surrounded by papers. "SOMEONE HELP!" I get up immediately and run. "PLEASE LYLA YOU NEED TO HELP HER!" Zayn frantically breathing heavily. I get to her room.


"SHE'S CRASHING!" I yell out and a whole team comes in.
