The boys and I pulled an all nighter, trying to think of ways to cure Emma before they get awful again.

"I can't think of anything, and it's damn 8 in the morning," I spoke, stressed out to the limit.

"We've been thinking about this since midnight, maybe a little before that. Maybe someone else knows something?" Ashton said, "My brain hurts from all this thinking."

"Your brain hurts from adding up 1+1 Ashton," Michael spoke.

We shared a small laugh before Ashton flicked Michael off.

"There has to be something," I spoke as I began pacing the room.

A knock on the door stopped my pacing and the door opened, revealing the One Direction lads.

Oh shit, its a concert day.

"What the bloody hell?" Niall spoke.

"How many bags of chips and beers did it take to get you here?" Louis asked, referring to the wild night we had at my house.

"None of that shit I wish we had. We used stress, and a ton of it," i spoke.

"When did you go to bed?" Liam asked.

We looked at our watches, "Two days ago."

Their eyes widened and their mouths gaped open.

"Close your mouths, you'll catch flies," Calum spoke.

"You've been up all night? Even after the concert?"

We nodded our heads and Michael got up and grabbed a Gatorade from my backpack.

"You don't need that, you need fucking energy," Zayn spoke.

"Closest thing I have to energy. I don't want Emma going through my bag thirsty and find a Red Bull and freaking chug it like apple juice," i spoke.

"Louis and I are going to get you food and energy drinks and y'all will go to the arena and wait for us. After rehearsal, you will eat and drink, then go to sleep," Harry spoke as they left.

"We don't have a choice, do we?" I asked Niall.

"No, now go get dressed," he spoke.

Michael, Calum, and Ashton went and grabbed clothes from their rooms and I gathered Emma some stuff and Niall carried her out.

"Why did you feel the need to stay up all night?" Zayn asked.

"We were figuring out ways to help Em," Ashton said, followed by a yawn.

"Why?"

"Her nightmares are back," I spoke as we got in the elevator.

"I'm not hungry," I whined.

"Luke, fucking eat or you will pass out because your blood sugar got low," Zayn spoke.

Ashton and Michael were dead asleep on the floor, like I should be. Calum said that he was going to shower and come back, but that was like twenty minutes ago. He probably fell asleep in there.

"But I've already drank two Monsters," i spoke.

"Just eat a fucking cookie or something. I will get Paul on your ass," he spoke again.

"Louis, call Paul over," he threatened.

"Damn it, I'll eat a fucking cookie," I spoke as I took one from his hand.

They both smirked and Niall came back with Calum. He tossed me a blanket and and immediately covered up and laid on the floor in between Ashton and Calum.
