Claire had called her parents to drive me home, how nice. She seems to be changing.. In a good way. She's not shy anymore, an also she's not obsessed. Ever since we started dating she stopped telling her mum crazy junk about me. I guess my mum is right. Give her a chance. I also like the fact that she cares. All my ex's didn't care and loved as much as she has done. It's pretty incredible.

"Niall, are you okay?" Claire's mum, Shelby, asked in the drivers seat.

"Yes, I'm fine. Thank you." I smiled from the back seat.

"I'm glad you are." Claire smirked, grabbing my hand.

I smiled and let her hold my hand. Her hands were soft, I rubbed the top of her hand with my thumb, in circles. Then looked out the window.

•**CLAIRE'S P.O.V**•

He allowed me to grab his hand. He smiled at me and made circles with his thumb. It tickled and I let out a little giggle. He stared out the window. God, I really hope he's as okay as he says. He was out for a long time, and he finally woke up in the hospital. I'm glad he did, I don't know what i'd do without him.

"This turn," Niall said, giving my mum directions to his house. Which was weird since he lived right next to me.

"I know," my mum chuckled. "You live right next to me babe."

"Oh yeah, sorry mrs..." He paused, waiting for an answer.

"Love." I finished his sentence.

He stared at me, his beautiful blue eyes sparkling down at me. I couldn't help but to look away, and let out a little laugh.

"Beautiful last name." He let out.

I smiled. "Thanks Niall.''

"We're here." My mum said unlocking the back door.

"Thanks Mrs. Love." He smiled and got out, tripping to the floor as he got out.

I gasped.

"Niall! Are you okay?" I quickly asked and got out, helping him up.

He grunted in pain for a minute.

"Yeah.." He said slowly.

"Stay here, don't move." I said setting him in the grass.

•**NIALL'S P.O.V.**•

Agh, good god. My back is killing me. I can hardly walk.

I stayed in the grass, listening to Claire and her mum discuss something. I couldn't quite understand, because I was paying attention to how bad I was hurting the whole time.

"Okay, see you then mum." Claire said, then running back to me.

"How you doing?" She asked, helping me up.

"Okay, I guess." I answered in a slow voice.

She didn't say anything. She helped me up and helped me walk inside.

"Well, hello kids!" My mum said shouting from the kitchen.

"Hi," Claire's voice sounded weak.

"Is everything okay, Niall?" My mum asked me, taking me from Claire and setting me on the couch.

I sighed in pain.

"Yeah, mum. I just tripped outside, getting out of the car.'' I muttered.

"Oh my god!" She yelled. "Niall, I don't want you to be going places 'till you're all better. Do you understand me?" She continued on.

"Yeah, mum." I replied. "I just fell once though, you sure you don't trust me?"

"I trust you, I just can't handle it if you get hurt more." She stuttered.

"Okay, mum. I won't be going no where."

"Claire, you can stop by anytime at all to see Niall, just walk in." My mum said, smiling over at Claire, who had her arm around me.

"Okay." She smiled. Then she stood up and kissed me on the forehead. "I should go."

She stood up and have me a light hug, then left.

"She's a dear." My mum said, kneeling down next to me and putting her hand on my knee.

"For sure." I said, thinking about it after.

"Well you should head up to your room and get some rest. It's late." She said, helping me up.

"Okay." I replied.

She helped me up the stairs and helped me into my pj's. I felt like a child.

"Okay, goodnight. Love you." She said, kissing me on the forehead then turning the light off and shutting the door behind her.

I shut my eyes and mini-dreamed about Claire.

....

It's been 57 minutes. I've been Lying here trying to sleep. I can't stop thinking about her.. I need to see her.

I slowly got up, trying to be as quiet ad I could be. My mum's rom was right under me. I opened the window and noticed how far of a drop it was. It was my only option, because my mom would hear me open the front door.

I threw down some blankets to support my fall.

I climbed on the edge and took a deep breath.

I jumped, gladly on my feet. My back started aching more, but I ignored it and walked over next door.

I opened Claire's window and crawled in. She was laying in bed, turned to the side on her phone. I'm surprised she didn't hear me.

•**CLAIRE'S P.O.V.**•

I layed in bed, texting some kid. He\she sent me a weird text saying:

"I'll get you."

I didn't panic, I knew it was fake.

I the heard a small thing fall behind me. I didn't care looking, something just probably fell off my desk.

I then felt something crawl into bed and I seem an arm stretch around me.

I freaked out and jumped out of bed, I grabbed the closest thing to me, which was my phone and hit them as hard as I could. I turned my light on to see Niall, laying there holding his head.

"Ow!" He said.

"Niall! Oh my god, I'm sorry!" I pleaded.

"It'a fine, just get back in bed." He said, holding the covers up, offering it to me.

I didn't say anything, I just went into his arms.

....

"How did you get here?" I questioned him.

He was already sleeping.

I kissed his cheek and his my face in his neck, and fell asleep.
