Niall's POV
********
Though I was glad to see Liam. My eyes instantly fell upon the brace around his neck. All of the gladness that I had felt from seeing him evaporated, replaced by the immense guilt that I felt. Perrie quietly slipped into the room that I suppose is Zayn's, as Liam and El came over and gave me a huge hug. I tried to hug them back I really did but it felt very fake. Nothing was going to make me feel better.
"Niall I am so glad you are here," Liam told me, "Come on the others will want to see you too."
I don't feel like I can go with him. I hate to admit it, but I was scared. This is completely unexpected, sure I had the dreams but never did they get to this point. Never had I expected to be the one walking in to my friend's hospital rooms without even a scratch. Before I go I give Emily a hug.
"You can do this Niall."
"Are you coming?"
"No not yet, I am going to talk to El and give you sometime with them."
I can't help but complain, or maybe it was more of a beg." You promised you would stay with me, that you would be here for me. Please dont go!" The terror breaking into my voice.
Em pulled me back into a hug, she pulled back then gave me a kiss. It made me calm down, focus. "I will be right out here, I know you can do this Niall. You are strong." She whispered to me, our foreheads together. With that I turned and went with Liam into the first room.

Emily's POV
*****************
Letting Niall go into the room without me hurt. I knew he was in pain but I really needed to talk to El without him there, plus it would be good for him to go. Even if they were hurt Niall needed his brothers. El and I went over to some sort of comfortable chairs and sat down.
"El how are they really?"
She sighed, "Want me to start with the worst or the best?
"How about we just start with Liam he seemed to be, okay at least."
" He is still in his brace as you saw and the doctors say it is a miracle that he isn't paralyzed. He has a fracture in one of his vertebrae but time and therapy can fix it. Dani will be down for a while, when the swelling is gone down the doctors will be putting plates into her leg. After that and therapy she should be able to walk after around 6 months, but she probably will never dance again." She stops, and looks nervous.
"That's good at least, it is terrible that she probably won't be able to dance but she might, and they are both going to be better." I pause and think of who I can handle hearing about next, from the look on El's face I can tell that no matter what its not good. "What about Zayn?"
El takes and deep breathe. "When the alarms went off he was in cardiac arrest. It took them around 7 minutes to revive him. They almost didn't even try because of his ribs. He is stable now but he is hooked up to a ventilator and the brain damage could only have gotten worse from all of that. The doctors did some scans and said that he isn't brain dead and should hopefully wake up, but no telling when."
We sit very quiet for a minute, I don't know what to say. Zayn was officially dead for around 7 minutes. Part of me doesn't want to know how the others are, yet I know that I need to know, if not for me for Niall and now for El.
Quietly I ask, "Harry?"
"He started passing out randomly, they determined that it wasn't from damage just the pain. He is pretty heavily drugged and sleeps mostly. Though when he is awake he is hilarious to talk to." She says with a small smile, "Me and Liam have been asking him questions when he is awake and he give some hilarious answers. When he is awake you can come try it."
She knows who I will ask about next, I can see the dread in her eyes. "Lou?"
She takes a minute to answer, placing her head in her hands and wiping at her eyes. "He came out of surgery. They have him in a coma right now. He was given 4 bags of blood. The surgeons were only able to repair vital organs, the others they just got to stop bleeding. But even the vital ones need to be replaced, pretty much they are just patched up for now, if no transplants come they guess he will only live for about a year, maybe two. Em I don't know what I will do without him." With the last word she started to cry, then sob.
