"He moved his hand?" Zayn kept asking Eve, who politely kept answering 'yes'. "You promise, he seriously -"
"I promise," Zayn felt his eyes moisten, "you can hold his hand if you'd like. It seems like our charcoal treatment worked like a charm." Zayn immediately grabbed his right hand, Niall took his left hand. Everyone in the room fell silent.
Zayn's fingers moved slightly.
And so did Liam's.
"He squeezed my hand," Louis was bawling like a baby now, "he fucking squeezed my hand," Harry had to hold Louis because he was hyperventilating.
Zayn had never felt so dead and alive at the same time. "He's alive guys, he's alive, he's not just a body anymore. He's alive."
