I woke up with a dry throat and a massive headache. Oh joy, great start to the day, right? We are in Mexico right now and we have a concert to do in front of 10s of thousands of people. I can't be sick today! This couldn't wait for our hiatus!

I slowly get out of bed as I begin to feel a bit dizzy. As I'm getting dressed and ready to leave the hotel room, I get super nauseous. Just add it onto the list of the things going wrong today. And it's only 8am! I try to sit down and calm my breathing to stop the horrible feeling. However, it only gets stronger and I rush to the bathroom to release the contents of my stomach.

As my stomach lurches a second time, I hear the door open and my amazing boyfriend, Harry's, voice boom through the room. I wince as my headache intensifies. However, I am too busy puking my guts out to speak or even acknowledge him.

I hear rushed footsteps coming from the front door to the bathroom and I feel a hand on my back. Harry whispers sweet nothings into my ear while rubbing my back and pushing the hair out of my face.

After a few minutes I was done and I leant back so my back was pressed against Harry's chest. I was so tired and weak and done with life that I almost fell asleep right then and there.

"No, no, babe. Stay up. I'm gonna get you some new clothes and then I'll go downstairs to see if they have any medicine, okay?" Harry said as he lifted me up.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist like a sloth and allowed him to carry be to bed. He changed me into a tshirt and boxers even though I complained of being cold. He said I have a temperature and he didn't want me to get overheated. Great!

As soon as I was tucked in and got a kiss on the forehead, I saw Harry put the waste basket next to me and leave the room as my eyes slipped shut in complete exhaustion.

I woke up two hours later feeling very nauseous so I sat up. It was a bit of a struggle but I felt a hand on my back helping me up. I opened my eyes to see Liam there giving me a sad smile.

"Hey Nialler. How ya feelin'?" He asked in worry.

"Been better. " I joked with a small smile trying to distract myself from throwing up.

"Haz went out cause he had an appointment with Mark at the gym but he will be back soon. " Liam said as he saw me look around the room.

I nodded showing I understood because my voice was horse and I didn't want to damage it.

Liam and I talked for a bit but my stomach wouldn't let up and I couldn't hold it in anymore. I groaned in pain as my stomach cramped and I put an arm around my stomach trying to stop it.

"What's wrong!" Liam asked.

"Bucket...ugh." Was all I could manage as I felt bile rising up my throat and I tried to swallow it down.

Liam was quick to grab the bucket and put it under my chin as I started to cough and stomach acid, water and some blood from my throat as I haven't eaten yet today.

"oooooo, mate. I'm so sorry. That looks painful. Oh, I forgot to give you the medicine Harry brought! Hold on! I'll get it and then I want you to eat something." Liam rushed out, clearly worried.

I needed to eat something before I took the medicine so I ate some crackers that Harry also bought and drank water so I wouldn't have to suffer with just stomach acid coming up and burning my throat. I took the medicine and laid down as Liam flipped the channels trying to find something in English. In the end, he gave up and pulled out my laptop turning on some Netflix.

I was about to fall asleep when Harry walked back into the room, luckily he showered at the gym because I wanted a cuddle and I couldn't wait.

"Hey, babe. Liam. Anything happen when I was gone?" Harry asked as he walked to the bed and climbed in as Liam climbed out and started gathering his things.

"He threw up but I fed him and gave him medicine so hopefully he will feel better once it kicks in." Liam said. We exchange goodbyes and Liam leaves to go and do his work out.

"You should sleep. You look exhausted. I looked up your symptoms and it looks like you have the stomach flu so you should take it easy so we don't have to get you antibiotics." Harry said after a few minutes of us just sitting and enjoying each other's company, Harry being the big spoon.

"What about the interview and concert we have today. It's 11 and we have an interview at 1 and a concert at 7. I want to go because we haven't been to Mexico for a while and we have the break coming and I want to be there for the fans as much as I can before hand." I croaked out.

"Well I agree but just take it easy and if you feel nauseous or anything rest backstage for a little. We can cover your solos if that happens, sound good?" He suggested in a soft tone, knowing I had a headache and that I get sensitive when I'm sick.

"Yeah. " I slurred sleepily.

"I will wake you up when we have to get ready for the interview. Lou has our outfits already and it's in the hotel so we have time. I love you. " Harry says when he sees my eyes drooping.

"I love you more." I reply.

I managed to get through the interview and concert, having to leave a few times to empty my stomach but the lads helped a lot as well as the crew. After a few days of throwing up, pills and cuddles with my Hazza, I was back to normal, ready to give the fans 100% of my effort.
