Falling Hard For Niall Horan | N.H

42. Nervous Bouncing

"I still can't believe all this," I told them. Ana nodded and Eleanor looked down.

"It's just seems too surreal," Eleanor agreed.

"I never though Mia would go this far," Ana told us, "I always knew she was crazy and jealous, but I never expected she would physically harm any of us."

I zoned out for a second, continuing to think about the whole situation as Ana spoke up, "I almost forgot that her birthday is tomorrow."

"Oh my god, she's going to be in the hospital for her nineteenth birthday!" Eleanor yelled exasperatedly, "She may not even be awake to celebrate!"

I sighed, but then I felt my phone vibrate. I hoped for good news from Niall, but it was Leigh Anne. 

"Hello?" I answered.

"We have a photo shoot in one hour, make sure you're there on time!" Leigh-Anne told  me.

"I'll be there, don't worry." I told her, hanging up.

"I have to go. I have a photoshoot," I told them, getting up and grabbing my jacket, "If anything happens concerning Cassidy, don't hesitate to call me."

Ana nodded, "We'll let you know."

Liam's P.O.V~

"Hey, Niall," I said, walking into Cassidy's hospital room. He looked up at me and his eyes were a little red, giving off the impression that he hadn't slept very much.

"Did you sleep last night?" I asked him. 

He weakly sighed, "As much as I could."

I knew he had been crying. His voice was breaking and I hated to hear that. It was the absolute worst thing to see Niall cry. You knew he was truly hurting, and Niall was the last one on planet Earth that deserved to be hurting.

"I'm really sorry, mate. Hopefully she'll wake up soon," I told him. I reached over and felt of Cassidy's forehead which felt normal. Maybe that was a good sign? "Is there anything I can do for you?"

He looked up at me, "Could you maybe get me something to eat?"

I smiled, happy to know that even though incredibly sad, he hadn't lost his appetite. That was definitely a good sign. "Sure. You want it from anywhere specific?"

"Could you possibly go by Nando's?" He asked me and I nodded.

"Of course, you want your regular meal?" 

"Yeah," He nodded, "I really appreciate it. I would do it myself, but I really want to stay here in case she wakes up."

"Yeah, no problem." I smiled, "I'll be back soon."

Niall's P.O.V~

After Liam left the room, I looked around the hospital room.

I hadn't exactly looked at it since I had been here. Besides the hospital bed, there was a small purple couch along the wall, another black couch, a flat screen television that Cassidy could watch if she were awake, and a white board that had all of Cassidy's health records on.

I looked back at Cassidy's beautiful face. Her eyes were still closed.

Why was she still blacked out? 

They gave her the blood transfusion. I never thought it would take this long for her to wake up. 

Why did Mia do this to her?

Why did she come into our lives and do this?

What the hell is wrong with her?

Why Cassidy?

Why not me?

Why did it have to be my girlfriend?

I finally found the girl of my dreams, the girl that I want to spend the rest of my life with, and as soon as things seem to be going great for us, everything came tumbling back down again.

Ana walked in the room, collapsing on the couch as if she were tired, but I knew that she had woken up froma nap on that couch only four or five hours ago. She looked over at me with sad eyes, "How are you doing, Ni?"

Before I could answer, I blurted out, "Can I ask you something?"

"Well, yeah," she laughed, "Go ahead."

I literally just had this same conversation with Harry. Why was I so nervous now having it with Ana?

"Do you... Do you think that.... Cassidy would maybe want to marry me?" I choked out, "You know, if I asked her."

Ana looked like she was about to explode, "Oh my god. Yes, Niall. Of course she would say yes!" She had began bouncing in her seat, her excitement being too much for her to handle.

"Really?" I asked, "I know she'll be nineteen tomorrow. I'll be twenty in a few days. I know it's kind of young, and I'm not saying I'm going to ask as soon as she wakes up, but you really think she would say yes when I asked her?"

Ana looked as if she had to come back down to Earth before she could answer my question. I don't think you could make her stop smiling if you offered her a million dollars. She walked over to my side, putting her hand on my shoulder.

"Niall, I've never been more sure of anything in my life."
