Chapter Seventeen

Louis' POV

"Because of me." I heard Harry's voice.

I kept my eyes closed and didn't move, wanting to hear where this was going. 

"Why would you say that?" My mum asked.

"We got into a fight and he left, but I don't know what happened after that." 

"That's not enough for him to do that though, is it?" 

"I don't know," Harry said and seconds later, I felt his lips on my forehead. 

I opened my eyes as Harry pulled back. 

"Hi," My voice croaked. 

"Hey, Louis. How are you?"

"Tired." 

Harry kind of smiled. 

"This isn't because of you." I said quietly. 

"Don't lie." 

"I'm not," 

"Then why would you do this?"

"I-I.. I don't know." 

"I'm gonna give you two a few minutes to yourselves." My mum said, walking towards the door.

Harry was getting angry... I could tell. 

"Tell me why you did it." He demanded.

"I don't know." 

"That's bullshit! Why'd you do it?"

I was getting mad now. 

"Harry, I told you. I don't know." 

"Okay. Tell me when you're ready... Call me when you want to talk." 

And he was gone. 

My mum walked back into the room.

"The doctors said you're free to come home." 

*****************

"The Horan's are coming over for dinner." My mum said.

The twins and I were sitting in the living room, watching some weird cartoon. Fizzy was helping Mum in the kitchen. The landline phone started ringing. My mum answered it, so I on;y heard one side of the conversation. 

"Hello? This is she... Is it bad? Okay.. When? Okay.. Okay...  Thank you, Tom. Goodbye."

She walked into the living room. She looked terrified.

"Everything okay?"

She motioned for me to go to her.

"That was Sheriff Teasdale."

"Okay?" 

"He'd like to question you." 

I furrowed my eyebrows.

"He didn't tell me much, just to have you at the police station at ten in the morning." She explained. 

*****************

"It was so good having you over for dinner," Mum said. 

"I agree. We'll have to do it again soon." 

"Is it alright if I stay and talk to Lou for a bit?" Niall asked, more directed towards me than his mum. 

"That's fine with me,"

Niall looked at me.

I nodded, "Yeah, come on." 

We walked upstairs and went into my room. 

"I want to apologize,"

"For what?" I interrupted.

"Everything. I know what I said at the hospital was uncalled for. I've been thinking about it and if you're happy with Harry or Edward or whatever the hell his name is, I'm fine with it." 

I smiled, "Thanks, Niall.. But I'm scared." 

He furrowed his eyebrows. 

"I'm scared.. Sheriff Teasdale wants me in for questioning.. I'm not a good liar, Niall." Tears filled my eyes. "I can't lie." 

"Come here," He pulled me into a hug. "Everything's gonna be okay,"

"You don't know that..." I cried.

"I don't want to lose something that I hardly even have."
