*One Month Later*

"Harry Styles and Niall Horan to the principal's office" the voice over the intercom said.

My friends looked over at me questioningly as I packed my stuff. I shrugged and walked out of the classroom and headed towards the front office.

"What's going on?" Harry asks appearing my side.

"Not sure" I answered. We keep walking towards the office. We walked in and the principal handed us "excused passes ".

"What're these for?" I asked.

"I can't tell you what I don't know. But you boys need to head to Memorial Hospital on Oakland Park right away." She said.

"Why? Who's hurt?" Harry asked.

"Please just go" she pleaded.

We turned and left her office, walking out towards the parking lot. We climbed in and drove in silence. When we came upon the hospital, we walked into the ICU waiting room. There sat my mum.

"Mum! What's wrong?!" I asked frantically.

"Oh. Hey sweetheart. Harry your grandparents came back, sweetie pie." she said sadly.

"Great. That still doesn't explain why we're in a hospital." he said monotonously.

"They came back to check on you and they walked in on a burglary. They shot both of them. You're grandpa died instantly." she said tears running down her face.

"What?!! No!!" he cried.

"I'm so sorry sweetie!"

"Where's me Grandmum?" he asked quietly.

Just then a doctor walked out of the operating room.

"Mr. Styles?" he asked.

"Hi." Harry said meekly.

"Hi. I'm Dr. Corbett. I am happy to say that your grandmother has survives the shot and the surgery."

"That's great!"

"Yes. However, she did go into shock afterwards so now we have put her in a medicine induced coma"

"How long will she be under?"

"....close to a year. Maybe longer.."

"A Year?!!!"

"Maybe a year! And you can still come and see her. She can hear you. She just can't move or talk back."

"Oh."

"I'm sorry about your grandfather. I knew him and he was a great man."

"Thank you"

He walked away and Harry sat down, his face in his hands. I stood frozen in shock. What the hell is happening?!

After a while Harry stood up and walked out of the hospital.

"Let's go home" mum said.

I followed Harry over to his car. He turned around when he heard my footsteps.

"Why aren't you riding with your mum?"

I'm not going ta leave ya alone, Harry "

He sighed and turned around, climbing into the car. I followed and sat in the passenger seat. We drove back hone quietly. Once we got home Harry went straight upstairs to his room. I went to mine and watched the rain pour outside.
