Isla's POV
Harry let go of me and backed away as we realized that Niall had walked in on us.
My heart was beating fast and I was shaking. I looked at Niall with tears in my eyes. He looked like he was just punched in the stomach. He was definitely hurt.
He looked between us before he turned around and slammed the door. I heard him stomping down the stairs so I quickly got up and followed him.
“NIALL! WAIT!” I yelled. I saw him grabbing his sweater and heading for the front door. “Niall! Will you let me explain? It’s not what it looks like!” I tried grabbing his arm but he yanked it off and put his hand on the doorknob.
“It’s exactly what it looks like,” he said angrily, giving me the dirtiest look. I saw everyone else come in and watching us.
“Niall! Please, let me explain,” I said, starting to cry.
“I don’t want to listen to you right now,” he said and with that he opened the door and walked out before slamming it in my face.
I stood there frozen, breathing hard and fast, not knowing what to do. I could feel everyone’s eyes on my back. The tears kept rolling down my face and I started sobbing.
What have I done? I hurt the man that I love. I promised myself that I would never do that.
I felt someone’s hand on my shoulder but I shook it off and moved away.
I needed to get away. I don’t think I can stand talking to any of them or even looking at them. I need to get out of here. So, without looking at anyone, I grabbed my jacket and my car keys and headed towards the door.
“Where are you going?!” I heard El say worriedly.
“I need some time alone, ok?” I said, still with my back to them as I put my jacket on.
“You shouldn’t be driving in this state, Isla? You might get hurt,” I heard Liam say.
I took a deep breath and put my hand on the doorknob. “I’m already hurt,” I plainly say and with that I leave and get in my car, without looking back.
I start driving but soon my thoughts had taken over that I don’t know where I ended up. But I didn’t care, I just needed to get away. It looks like I’m on some side road and it’s empty.
I get a flashback of Niall’s face when he saw me and Harry kissing and then his face before he stormed out of the house. The hurt in his eyes, I never wanted to see that. It brought tears to my eyes again that I hurt him.
I loved him more than anything and I never want to lose him. I don’t know what I’d do if I did and that thought brings even more tears to my eyes and soon my vision is blurry from my tears. I know I should stop driving but the road was empty and I needed to get away.
I tried wiping the tears away, trying to clear my vision but when I opened my eyes again the first thing I saw was a pair of headlights coming straight towards me.
I quickly tried turning the wheel to the left as much as it would go to try and dodge the cargo truck but it hit the back of my car which caused it to spin in circles before flipping multiple times into a ditch when it finally stopped upside down.
The whole time my mind went blank. Glass shattered everywhere, cutting into my skin. Hitting my head everywhere while the car flipped over and over.
When it stopped I was upside down and I couldn’t move or speak. I felt blood dripping down my head and I started getting dizzy. Everything was a blur.
I slowly turned my head to the side when I saw a car stop and pull over. I saw the silhouette of a person getting out of the car and heading towards me.
But that was the last thing I remembered before I blacked out.

Harry's POV
"We shouldn't have let her go driving like that," Louis said, pacing back and forth in the living room. We had sat down in the living room not knowing what to do.
Both Niall and Isla had left upset and it was my entire fault. I shouldn't have kissed her. I was being so selfish.
It had been and hour and a half and neither Niall nor Isla had responded to our multiple texts or calls. I was starting to get worried.
"Should we go look for them?" Dani said.
"Niall just went for a walk so he should be okay, it's Isla we should be worried about but she could be anywhere," El replied.
"But we should still try," I said, getting up, "I'm gonna go look for her and if any of you want to help, that would be great."
I started to head towards the door but stopped when I heard a phone ring. I turned around and saw that it was El's phone. She quickly sat up straight and she looked at the caller ID. She gasped and put her hand over her mouth, looking like she was going to cry. Lou walked over to her and sat down and started comforting her.
She looked up at everyone and said, "It's the hospital."
My knees gave way and I had to hold onto the back of the couch for support as she answered her phone.
"H-Hello?" she said, shakily, "yes, this is Eleanor...yes, Isla's my friend," tears started forming in her eyes, "what?!...are you sure it's her?...okay, I'll be there right away...thank you." She hung up and started crying.
"What happened?!" I said, my heart beating fast, dreading what the hospital just told her.
My heart dropped when Isla's name was said. I waited for El to answer.
She sniffled as she tried to calm down. "Isla g-got into a h-huge car accident...a cargo truck hit her c-car and she ended upside d-down in a ditch...she's in the hospital now."
I dropped to my knees as I heard what happened. This was my entire fault! I hurt Isla and now she's in the hospital because of me. I felt someone grab my arm and pull me up and guide me to the couch to sit down.
"Harry, are you okay?" Liam said, kneeling in front of me, I didn't move or say anything. I was still in shock.
"Look, we have to go to the hospital to see how she's doing. Did you wanna come?" he said.
I slowly looked up at him and nodded. He grabbed my arm again and helped me up but I politely shook him off as I started heading towards the door.
"I'll drive, everyone go in the Range Rover," Louis said, "but someone should stay here and wait for Niall."
"I'll stay and we'll meet you guys there," Liam said. Everyone else then got out and went in Lou's car.

The drive felt longer than it actually was. I just needed to see that Isla was okay.
We had finally arrived at the hospital and everyone quickly got out. We entered the hospital and headed straight to the reception's desk.
"Hi, we're looking for a patient named Isla Abbott, she got into a car accident today," El said to the receptionist.
"Yes, she is in room 208, just take the elevator to the second floor and it's the fourth door on the right," she replied.
"Thanks," El said, before all of us walked towards the elevator. We got to the second floor and found her room.
I saw a doctor and a nurse inside her room and a curtain was covering Isla. We waited outside until the doctor came out.
I quickly stood up from my chair and walked up to him. "Is she okay?" I said, frantically.
"You're here for Isla Abbott?" he said, looking at all of us.
"Yes," I quickly replied, wanting to know how she's doing.
"Well, she's lucky she survived with her injuries, multiple cuts and bruises, three broken ribs, her right wrist is broken, she hit her head multiple times and she lost a lot of blood. And, unfortunately, most of those are what caused her to go into a coma," the doctor said, with a serious look on his face
Once I heard him say 'coma' it felt like throwing up. I felt like taking everything close to me and throwing it. I felt guilty and angry but I had to control myself.
"I have to check on the other patients so I will be back later to check up on her again. The nurse is just changing her bandages then you guys can go in, just wait out here for now, if you have any questions just ask the reception to come get me," he said, politely.
"We will, thank you," Louis said. So we all sat down on the chairs and waited. Liam had called Louis and said that Niall came home and that they were on their way.
What have I done?
