Larry Stylinson's Cancer Battle

chapter twentyseven

The minutes pass by slowly as Liam and Harry sit in Louis's hospital room. The eldest boy was sound asleep with soft snores.

There was no news on Niall, other than him still being in the operating room. Liam would ask the nurses at the station if they knew anything about every ten minutes, which caused the nurses to grow aggravated.

He was worried. They all were.

They both jumped when Liam's phone alerted him with a call. The ID read 'Zayniee Xx'

"Li.."

The sound of his muffled voice indicated there was something wrong.

"Yeah, what's up?"

"Li I... I was in the car-" he was cut off with a crying hiccup.

"Zayn, what's going on?"

"For fucks sakes, Liam. I was the one driving Niall's car! It's all my fucking fault!" he sobbed.

Liam was baffled. How could things get any worse? Honestly, it was one thing after another.

"Where are you?"

"I'm in the hospital parking lot.."

~~

Later that day, much later, the boys found out that Niall had surgery done on his lungs to clear an air way for him to breathe. The car had smashed his chest and damaged some arteries. He was ok though, and thank god he was because the boys didn't know how much heartbreak they had left in them.

"How you doin, Ni?" Louis asked with his weak voice. He was sitting propped up against several pillows and was tucked in tightly on his bed, cuddled in next to Harry.

"M'ok.." he breathed ruffly. Liam had wheeled him into Louis' room for a few minutes as everyone wanted to see each other and Louis couldn't leave as his chemo was still going on.

The door suddenly opened and a nurse walked in with her clipboard.

"Mr. Styles?" she asked and looked around the room, eyes landing on Harry.

He raised his hand, letting her know it was him.

"Nice gentleman named Zayn? Asked me to give this to you." she smiled and handed him a folded up piece of paper.

"Oh, uh thanks."

She nodded and left.

Harry unfolded it and his eyes bulged.

'I'm sorry. I really am. I was promptly not made to be in this kinda situation and I deeply am sorry to have been such a nuisance for all these years. Harry, there's so much to tell, but so little of me to say. Don't ever stop, ok? You just have to keep going. Promise me. Tell Liam to stay strong and tell him to stay grounded. He's in charge now, be nice to him. Louis, tell him to keep fighting. He's going to win, we all know he will. God has better plans for him. Niall, I.. I pray to God he's alright. And I don't want this to be the last, but.. it has to and I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I won't be in One Direction anymore, and I won't be here. I'll be gone. Fuck, I'm so sorry guys. Please know I never meant to hurt you. This had to be done though. I love you guys, always remember.

Yours truly, Zayn.'
