it started with a... (marcus rashford)

part 11 🤍

'holy shit' i heard trent yell around 20 minutes later.. 'call an ambulance' i heard dele say, at this point the movie was paused and everyone was listening to what was happening outside. no one got up because we didn't want the hallway to get too crowded 'hi we need an ambulance asap' i heard dele say to the operator on the phone 'my friend has been stabbed multiple times in the stomach and legs' he said 'his name is jesse lingard'. i began to cry and i tried to stand up but marcus wrapped his two arms around my waist holding my arms. i tried to escape but i couldn't so i just gave up buried my head in his shoulder and cried 'please hurry' dele said down the phone as he hung up. i heard jesse  'let me go' i cried he let go i ran outside to try get to jesse and got held back by trent 'trent please' i cried 'no' he said sternly 'trent let go' i said angrily still crying, he let go and i ran and fell next to jesse there was blood all over his clothes 'jesse' i cried 'harriet i'll be ok please go inside' he croaked 'i'm not leaving you' i said linking my hands with his, all he did was smile and close his eyes 'stay awake' i whispered 'im trying' he said his voice was raspy 'the ambulance is almost here i promise' and sure enough two minutes later we could hear sirens and 4 paramedics rushed up with a stretcher and medical bags, we were all asked to stand back as they assessed the situation. i couldn't leave i tried to let go but jesse held on to my hand so they let me stay with him everyone else met us at the hospital. i held jesse's hand the whole time until he had to go into surgery, it was 2am i sat silently in the opposite corner of the hospital room to everyone else i was still crying but i told everyone i wanted to be alone so they left me until marcus came over and sat next to me pulling my legs over his 'i love you' he said looking me in the eyes 'i love you too' i half smiled but he could tell it was fake 'who did it?' i questioned 'harriet please you don't need this right now it will make you 10x more angry' he said softly, how did he know i was angry? i didn't even look it. 'marcus i want to know it was, i will find our eventually and you know that' i said avoiding eye contact 'it was joel' he sighing giving in 'compass?' i questioned 'yes' he sighed 'i'm gonna kill someone' i grunted 'this is exactly why i didn't wanna tell you has' he said putting his head in his hands 'no, thank you for telling me' i smiled grabbing his hands, he leaned in to kiss me but jesse was wheeled into the room. i jumped up and pulled marcus up with me, i wanted to make sure he knew i loved him 'he has 5 puncture wounds, 1 across his left thigh, 3 in his stomach and one very close the the main artery of his heart, they have all been cleaned and stitched up he must stay in hospital for 4days under close monitoring, maybe longer if things don't go to plan' the nurse said and she set up jesse's bed correctly 'thank you' i smiled, as she left the room. 'can i please speak to has and beans' jesse croaked trying to sit up 'stop, lay down' i smiled, everyone left the room and it was just marcus, jesse and i 'how are you feeling mate' marcus said pulling a chair over for both of us 'i can't feel much because of the medicine but as soon as that wears off i feel like i'll be in a lot of pain' he smiled 'this is terrible' i said throwing my head in my hands 'has' he said grabbing my hand 'i will be perfectly fine for the world cup' he whispered 'i hadn't even thought about that' i cried, we talked for about 10 minutes until we welcomed everyone back in the room, it was now around 6am we tried to call his mum kirsty but there was no answer so i got in my car and drove to her house to deliver her the news,
*knock knock*
'ahh harriet, come in' she said hugging me 'have you been crying' she pouted, i nodded 'so i hate to come here and ruin your morning, but i come here with some bad news' i frowned 'oh lord' she sighed, i began to cry 'so very early this morning someone called joel compass called to our door and a few of the boys and myself have a horrible history with him, basically jesse answered the door and joel started to get rowdy so he called out dele and trent and joel acted quickly and stabbed... stabbed jesse 5 times' i cried 'take me to him' she sighed 'you go now, i will sort daisy and jasper out and bring them down' i smiled 'thank you love, jasper isn't here but daisy is upstairs' she smiled hugging me and grabbing her keys and running out the door, 'daisyyy' i yelled 'harrietttttt' she screeched running down the stairs and giving me a hug 'hello baby girl' i smiled hugging her back, she got ready and we headed to the hospital, and everyone was reunited and we were told to go home around 8 o'clock, when we got home i went upstairs and got in the shower and broke down, marcus burst into the bathroom when he heard me crying he wrapped my towel around me and held me 'harriet' he cried 'i love you' i croaked
