Happy Easter to anyone out there celebrating. This was another request I got. A bit shorter this time. Hope you guys like it.
"Please just get Liam," Niall begged. Louis sat at the foot of Niall's bed trying to calm him down.
"Ni Liam's asleep just tell me what's wrong," Louis tried to reason with him. It was late. Louis had walked by Niall's room on his way to the kitchen for some water when he heard him cry. Niall sobbed and shook his head hiding his face in his pillow. "Ni I can't help you if I don't know what's wrong."
"My belly hurts," he finally said. Louis fully understood now. Niall hated everything to do with being sick. The sight, the sound the smell, everything. If he was feeling sick Louis knew he must be having a lot of anxiety. Liam had a magic touch when Niall was like this. The other two could never get him calmed down. But Louis wanted Niall to tell him more before he went charging into Liam's room to wake him.
"Hurts as in pain or hurts like your nauseous?" Louis asked feeling like he already knew the answer.
"I'm nauseous," Niall sobbed. Louis rubbed his back over his blankets and sighed.
"It's alright buddy. I'll go get Liam," he told him.
"Please hurry." Louis left Niall's rooms and walked down the hall to Liam's. He knocked on the door before walking in.
"Li," Louis called softly. "Payno wake up," he called walking up to Liam's bed. Liam groaned rolling over to look at Louis.
"What is it?" Liam asked still half asleep.
"Niall's sick,"Louis told him bluntly. Liam sat straight up in bed.
"What kind of sick?" Liam asked.
"Well I don't think I'd be waking you up if he had a cough now would I?" Louis asked sassily.
"Alright, alright I get it," Liam grumbled getting out of bed. "Where's he at on the panic scale?"
"I'd say he's sitting at a solid six. He's crying but he's not inconsolable. He told me what was wrong."
"So he's not too far gone." They went back to Niall's room and walked back in. "Hey buddy," Liam cooed going up to Niall's bed.
"I don't feel good Li," Niall explained reaching out for Liam. Liam sat down on Niall's bed and Niall quickly cuddled into him. Liam ran his fingers through his hair.
"Louis told me love, when did you start feeling ill?"
"Before I went to bed my belly hurt a little but now I think I might," Niall paused going completely white. Just the thought was enough to set him off. "Please don't let me throw up," Niall sobbed. Liam looked up at Louis and Louis just shook his head.
"You've got to calm down love. You're belly isn't going to feel better if you're all worked up like this," Liam cooed. All the commotion had woke Harry up who soon joined Louis in Niall's doorway.
"What's going on?" Harry asked groggily.
"Niall's ill," Louis explained. That was all the explanation Harry needed. Niall was crying so hard he started to cough and gag just because of how worked up he was.
"Lou bring me the trash bin please," Liam asked sitting Niall up.
"No! No, I don't want it. Please. I don't want to," Niall sobbed. He gagged hard bringing his hand up to his mouth. Louis gave the bin to Liam who put it in Niall's lap. His stomach churned and flipped both from him being unwell and from how worked up he was.
"You're making yourself feel worse love, you've just got to relax," Liam soothed. Liam rubbed Niall's back with one hand and held the bin steady in the other. Panic had completely taken over Niall's body as he stared down at the bin feeling his mouth water and his throat get tight. He shook with fear but Liam was quick to bring him down again. "Bub you're going to feel so much better when all that yucky stuff is out of your belly. We're all here. Don't worry. We aren't leaving." Niall relaxed a little and that was all it took for his stomach to bring up what was inside.
"Poor guy," Harry whispered to Louis. Louis nodded and watched as Liam talked to Niall trying to distract him as best he could.
"You're doing great Nialler. Just focus on me. Listen to my voice. You're doing so well. That's it almost done." Liam just kept talking until Niall was finished. When he was done Niall kept his eyes close so he didn't have to look at the mess. "Lou?" Liam looked up at Louis and he got the hint. Louis took the bin away from Niall and went to clean it out. "See there. Bet you feel better don't you?" Niall nodded. "Why don't you lay back down and get some sleep?"
"Will you lay with me?" Niall asked looking up at Liam with sad eyes.
"Yeah, course I will." Liam let Niall lay down before crawling in bed with him letting him cuddle into him. "Get some sleep Nialler. I'll stay right here with you." Louis came back and set the bin down by the bed just in case.
"You ok buddy?" Louis asked look at both Liam and Niall. Niall simply nodded.
"We're fine. You guys can go back to bed," Liam told him. Louis and Harry nodded.
"Just yell if you need anything," Harry told them.
"Thanks guys," Niall sighed struggling to keep his eyes open.
"Just relax Nialler. Get some sleep," Liam instructed.
"Feel better Nialler," Harry said as he and Louis left the room.
"Thanks for stating Liam," Niall told him.
"Of course mate." With that both boys shut their eyes and went to sleep.
