-Sophie- 

I had just left the room since Harry asked. I couldn’t believe he was going to get an operation that he might not even survive through.. although if he didn’t get it he would die.. 

I went down to the café in the hospital, I got myself a nice cup of tea, with milk and sugar and a nice chocolate muffin. I sat down at a table pulling out my phone going through my pictures, I found one of me, Harry and Niall from years ago when we were all bestfriends I couldn’t help but chuckle to myself.

I remembered the day like it was yesterday, we must of took 300 pictures that day. We were at the local park and decided we would get a picture we were all hanging of the monkey bars pulling funny faces.

I couldn’t help but think what if he did die , I mean I know im meant to be thinking positive but I don’t want to get my hopes up by thinking he will live  and he doesn’t. I mean it upset me thinking of losing him, but I know it would be 10 times worse if he did die.. 

I finished off my muffin and tea, sliding my phone back into my pocket and heading for the door, wonder if Harry and Niall were done talking.

-Niall- 

I walked round to the waiting room I assumed that’s where she would be. Where else could she go in a hospital? But she wasn’t there.. maybe she went to get a drink? I sat down on the seats in the waiting room waiting for her to return. I watched the clock hands go round and round, tick tok, tick tok. Until I heard footsteps I jumped up out of my seat and stood there awkwardly with my hands in my pockets looking to the ground.

I looked up to see Sophie, looking deep in thought.

“Sophie” I blurted it out without a thought

Her head shot up in my direction, she didn’t say anything she just looked at me.

“I.. I need to erm talk to you” I lied.

“Sure” she smiled at me walking towards me

“I.. Come here” I grabbed her by the waist looking deep into her eyes searching for some kind of answer. She didn’t back away she just looked into my eyes. 

Slowly but surely I started leaning in, not breaking the eye contact and before I knew it our lips connected, her soft lips moving  in sync with mine, she didn’t break the kiss. Thank God.  I pushed her hair behind her ear not breaking the kiss, I could feel her getting more passionate with the kiss.

“Oh sorry, am I interrupting.. Ill come back if you want” we instantly broke apart to reveal Greg,  my brother.. What the hell was he doing in London?! talk about embarrassing, him catching us kissing I mean..

“Eh, no.. Im.. Im gonna go see Harry” Sophie walked away, giving me and Greg an awkward smile and wave.

“Greg? What are you doing here?!” I couldn’t help but smile as he give me a hug.

“I came to see how you were, I missed you”

“I missed you too, I miss home hows mum and dad?”

“There great, they send there love.. They miss you a lot”

“Yeah, I miss them too like loads. I was thinking of coming over home soon”

“New girlfriend?” Greg questioned, completely changing the subject as we took seats in the waiting room.

“No, kinda.. no”

“It’s a yes or no Niall” he laughed 

“No..” I sighed sitting down, running my hand through my hair.

“So you and her were just eating off each other’s face for nothing, what happened to that girl you liked?”

“Sophie? That’s her you idiot. She told me earlier she didn’t like me that way” I sighed

“Seemed like she liked you”

“I don’t know” I trailed off

“Just be careful, I don’t want you getting hurt.. Your my wee brother I care a lot you know”

“Shes not like that.. She doesn’t mess with guys” 

“Well then maybe shes scared to admit how she feel, or maybe shes scared you’ll hurt her. Girls are weird like that”

“I suppose”

“Just be careful.. Hows Harry anyways?” Greg asked his expression changing from sympathetic to worry.

I sighed at the thought of it, my eyes tearing up as I looked at Greg.

“Its not good Greg, he needs an operation to save his life.. but theres a 50 chance he’ll die.. Im going to lose my bestfriend I know I am” Tears started rolling down my checks I felt Gregs wrap around my shoulders.

“hey, come on it’ll be okay Niall. Im always here for you okay”

“I know, I love you  Greg” I sniffled

“I love you too Niall”

I smiled.

“Niall..”

“Yeah?”

“You really did get stuck on there with that kiss”

We both laughed, id missed Greg so much.. I was glad he was here, he was always there for me. He always knew how to help with things and now that hes gonna be here for a week I felt releaved.
