Liam had managed to get Louis into his bed at around midnight. However, he woke up a couple of hours later with crippling cramps. He practically crawled to the bathroom to be met by his sister bent over the toilet being sick. He grit his teeth and shuffled towards the sink, throwing up violently. Abi groaned hearing her brother, the noise only making her own stomach more queasy.

"M-move" Louis said through gritted teeth as his stomach cramped and gurgled threateningly. "Shut up" Abi said irritated, she just wanted to be alone. "You don't understand... I need to use.. the toilet. Now".
"Use the sink" she said spitting in to the toilet.
"C-can't" Louis groaned, attempting to move her. He swore loudly before shuffling as quickly as possible to his parents en-suite.

Kate jolted awake instantly frowning as she worked out what was happening. "Lou?" She said swinging her legs out of the bed as her son slammed the door and instantly released his bowels. "Liam" Kate said shaking him awake, "somethings wrong". Liam woke up and the first thing he noticed was the shut bathroom door.

Abi felt guilty, she should have known what Louis needed. She just couldn't think straight with her head in the toilet. She washed her face before going to find her parents and brother to apologise. When she got to their bedroom she heard her dad comforting her brother. "Sorry mum" Abi said to her mum with tears in her eyes before she explained what had happened. "Don't be silly darling" Kate said, wrapping her eldest into a hug, "you're sick too" she reminded her before taking her back to bed.

For the rest of the night Louis slept on his parents bathroom floor, waking up every hour sick. Abi's stomach seemed to have settled down for the time being.

I'm the morning Kate left Liam and her two eldest to sleep but she got the twins up and fed before putting a film on for them. Once she
was ready for work she woke her husband up so the kids weren't unsupervised. "Love you" Liam had said before she left.

The rest of the day was spent on the sofa watching TV with his twins and occasionally Abi who hadn't managed to eat anything but hadn't been sick for a while. Louis' day was very similar to the day and night before.
