I'm The New Girl

Sing To Me?

"There's been an accident..."
All my nerves explode inside of me. What kind of accident? Was it dad? Was it Charlie? Were they dead? Please don't let them be dead.
"Wh-what kind of accident? What do you mean?" I say and Harry looks at me. I signal for him to pull over.
"Mom, why are you crying? What happened!?"
"We st-topped at the gas station on the way home. Yo-your father and Char-Lie were waiting in the car, while I ra-ran in to pay for the gas. A-and then I-it happened." She exclaims crying more and more.
I start crying, as well. "Mom, what happened!"
"A car speed around the corner.... And cr-Ashed into ours. I looked out the window of the store. And there was a..."
"Mom?" I question. "There was a what? A what!"
"An explosion coming from the other car."
I start to bawl, not being able to hold in my tears. Harry try's to comfort me, by rubbing his hand up and down my leg, even though he doesn't know what's going on.
"Mom, wh-where are you?" I manage to get out.
"Grand Central Hospital, on the top floor."
"We'll meet you there" I say before hanging up.
As soon as I end that call, I cry. And cry, and cry and cry.
"Zoey? What happened?" Harrys asks. I look up at him, and he looks really really worried.
"A car crash-crashed into mom and da-ads, the o-ther c-ar expl-o-oded I cry.
I can't even express Harrys look on his face.
"Babe, it's ok, it's going to be ok, where are they?"
"Grand Centr-al."
"Ok," he says making a U turn.
"Here." Harry says pulling his drink bottle of water out from the drink bottle holder in his door.
"Thank you, Harry" I say taking a swig.
5 minutes later, we arrive at the hospital.
I haven't even noticed that's it pouring down. I get out of the car and start running, my hair and my clothes sticking to me like glue.
"Zoey, wait! Here, put this on he says, running in front of me,causing me to stop.
He removes his black jacket, and helps me get my arms through the longs sleeves.
They cover of my hands, but it's fine.
He gets his black beanie out of his pants pocket and places it over my head. He smiles and wraps his arm around my shoulders and starts running, to try and keep me dryer.
After we enter the hospital, I run for the closest elevator. Me and Harry run in and I click the button that has a nine on it.
"Mom said, they're on the top floor." I say, as we start moving.
It felt like an eternity before the elevator doors opened. As soon as they did, I run.
I can hear Harry calling my name, running after me, but I couldn't stop. I needed to find them. After a minute or two of running around random halls, I almost can't go anymore. Until I find mom.
"Mom?" I say under my breath "Mom" I say louder this time. "Mom!" I scream
She is holding a tissue up to her nose, and looking no where but straight ahead.
"Mom" I say as I approach her. She looks at me, and stands up hugging me, as she starts crying. I stroke her hair.
"It's ok mom, don't cry. Please don't cry."
She pulls away. "So what, wh- what-what?" I try and get out.
She breathes out. "Hi Harry"
Harry looks to me and then at mom, "Hello Mrs Smith, are you ok?" He asks pulling her in for a hug.
"I'm ok, I guess, I've been better." She shrugs.
"So?" I ask taking a seat, on the sofa next to mom, and then Harry sits next to be.
She lets out a sigh.
"Well, the car came crashing in, from behind, so Charlie was the most effected." She say, letting a tear fall.
Charlie? Charlie was the most effected? What does that mean? Was she alright?
I look straight ahead, and pull my lips into my mouth and shake my head.
I feel an arm drape around my shoulder, seeing it's Harrys, he doesn't look at me, he just looks in the same direction as me. I see a tear fall from his eye and then another. Harrys crying? "Harry, don't cry." I say letting the tears fall. I hug him tightly with him hugging back, burying his head in my shoulder. After a minute, we pull away.
"So how are they?" I ask mom.
"Dads fine, he's gone to get coffee for us, and Charlie's in there with a Broken leg, 3 fractured ribs and a small bump to the head
"Can I see her?" I ask.
"Yeah, Harry you go too."
I stand up after Harry, and we start walking, intertwining our fingers, as we enter the room.
When we walk in, I almost can't handle it. Seeing my little sister laying their in the bed practically lifeless. Her innocent little body just laying there, with heaps of cords and machines connected to her. Not the same funny, bubbly, crazy little girl I'm used to. Just a body.
I sit down in one chair next to the bed, while Harry takes the chair on the other side.
I sit there stroking her hair, occasionally coming to some knots.
Then I cry. I start to bawl and can't stop.
"Zoey, baby, don't cry, please don't cry." I hear Harry worriedly say. I cover my mouth, but I just can't help it.
Harry stands up and runs to my side, and I hug him, burring my face in the crook of his neck, I wrap my arms around his neck and grip onto his t shirt, letting my tears stain it.
He pulls away and gives me a soft peck. Then he brings me back into his chest, petting my hair, trying to comfort. I move my head to the side more, for a easier place to breath, and I see mom and dad standing at the door. Mom is crying and dad is rubbing his hand up and down my shoulder.
I shake my hand, gesturing for them to come in. We pull away from our hug as they enter, and Harry places a kiss on my lips.
I walk over for a family group hug.
When we pull away, mom takes the chair that I was sitting in, with dad standing next to her. Harry grabs for my hand, and leads me to his seat. He sits down and pulls me down onto his lap.
No one talks. We just sit there. Looking at the small girl, asleep in the bed.

After we have all calmed down a little, Harry contacts Niall and tells him what's going on.

Harrys POV
A little while later, Zayn, Niall and the girls arrive.
I am sitting on the floor with my back against the wall, with Zoeys head on my lap.
They come and sit with us. Our order goes me, Niall, Zayn, Perrie, Dani, El.
Some how Zoey ended asleep with her head on me her middle on Niall, with her legs on Zayn. I am petting her hair, Nialls hand is resting on her waist, while Zayn is streaking his hand up and down her leg, in a soothing way. Perrie is asleep with her head on Zayns shoulder, holding onto Zoeys feet. Dani is asleep on Perries shoulder and El is asleep on Danis shoulder, the boys are whispering to each other so the girls don't wake up.
Alison and Rob come out of the hospital room.
"Mr and Mrs Smith," I say.
"These are our friends Niall, and Zayn" I say while they wave.
"Ah, so you're Zoey long lost food twin?" Dad asks.
The boys and I laugh, while look down on Zoey.
"And this Perrie, Dani and El," I point to the sleeping girls. They smile.

Alison and Rob are sitting on a couch, with Alison, asleep curled into Rob. He is asleep on her shoulder.
It's 2 in the morning, and Zoey and the girls wake up.
"Hey babe, you wanna go to my place?" I ask her.
She sweetly smiles and nods her head.
We all get up off the floor, and Zoey gives her mom and dad a hug.
I pull Mrs Smith in for a hug and give Mr Smith a hand shake.
The rest of the gang wave goodbye and leave.
"We will be back in the morning." Zoey tells her. And then we leave.
When we exit the building, Zoey is already half asleep so I give her a piggy back to the car, and put her in a buckle her in.
When we get home, she's out.
I carry her inside to find that no ones up, so I tip toe up the stairs and then Zoey wakes up.
She gets changed and gets in my bed.
I follow behind and she lays her head on my chest, resting her arm on my torso.
"Harry can you sing to me?" She whispers.
"Please?"
"Ok, shhh, close your eyes and I'll sing." I say softly caressing her cheek.
She smiles and closes her eyes.
I smile and let out a sigh.

"When I see you smile, tears run down my face.
I can't replace.
And now I am strong I have figured out, how this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul.
And I know I'll find deep inside of me, I can be the one.
I'll never let you fall.
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all.
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.
It's ok."

At this time I can feel tears dropping,onto my chest, and it breaks my heart.

"Seasons are changing and waves are crashing and stars are falling all for us.
Days grow longer, and nights grow shorter. I can show you I'll be the one.
I will never let you fall.
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all.
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.
Cause you're my true love.
My whole heart, please don't throw that away.
Cause I'm here for you.
Cause I'm here, please don't walk away, and please tell me you'll stay.
Stay.
Use me as you will.
Pull my strings just for a thrill.
And I know I'll be ok.
Though my skies are turning grey.
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven.
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there through it all,
Even if saving you sends me to heaven."

"Stevie Wonder" I hear.
I smile
"Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful?
Isn't she precious?
Less than one minute old.
And I never thought, through love we'd be.
Making one as lovely as she.
But isn't she lovely made from love.?"

"Thank You"
"I'm yours." I hear whispered into my ear.
I look down and see her gripped onto be like glue.
I smile and close my eyes with a tear threatening to spill out my eye.
"And I'm yours."
