Niall's POV

I dreamed happily for the first time in ages that night. I had my friends and family around me. And most importantly, Liam. He was sleeping next to me when I woke up. His hand was in my good one and his head was tucked into my neck. He was half on the bed and half on the chair he was on. I sniffled a laugh and poked his cheek. He didn't stir so I left him for a few minutes and looked around me. In the corner of the room, Harry and Louis cuddled each other on the floor. Zayn was on his own, sleeping with bad bed head. Greg and mum were sharing the chair on the other side of me.

I smiled at them all, I'm home now. This is home. My family and friends are my home. "Liam?" I whispered and poked his cheek again. "Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiam?" I whispered again and poked his ribs. He started to move a little and his eyes flickered open. "Morning!" I said. He smiled at me and lifted his head up.

"Morning, Ni." He kissed the top of my head and sat up, stretching his back. "How you feeling?" he asked.

"Good thanks, are you alright?" I said and sat up slightly.

"Better now that you're here." He smiled at me and I blushed.

"Shuddup!" I exclaimed and Mum woke up. "Hi." I told her.

"Hey there! Good nights sleep?" She asked and I nodded. "You feeling better?" yet again I nodded and my belly rumbled. "Hungry?" I nodded again and soon everybody else woke up.

"What do you want to eat?" Liam asked and I shrugged. I am hungry but I don't want so much to eat. Maybe just a sandwich and that's it.

"Can I have a sandwich please?" I said finally. "Don't you want more? It looks like you need it." Liam asked suspiciously. I shook my head. "No thank you." I said. Both Liam and Greg went off to get us some food.

"So Niall, we're trying to move you back home in London to be safer. However, we're not sure the paramedics can." Mum said and stood up to stretch. "We don't know your current condition with everything that's happened. All we know is you've had to have veins replaced which will affect your blood circulation."

"Okay." I said. There was a long silence as nobody knew what to say. It took Liam and Greg five minutes to come back with some food for everybody. They got me just a ham sandwich and a bottle of Apple juice. Harry and Louis got a BLT each and mum, Greg and Liam got some fruit pots.

A nurse came in to check on my blood level and to change the IV bag. She gave me an injection saying it was to held the red blood cells reproduce faster. I nibbled slightly on my food as she finished doing her job.

Mum looked worried about me and I couldn't blame her. I didn't even eat half a slice of the bread before feeling sick. "Hey, Ni, it's going to be okay. If you're sick, then be sick. Nobody will judge." Liam whispered in my ear. I looked at him in the eyes and smiled. "At least you are eating. It's better than nothing." he muttered.

"Thank you." I muttered and cuddled up into him. "I don't want anymore. Sorry for wasting your money." I told mum because she was the one who paid for it all.

"It's fine, darling. You did your best." She smiled but the disappointment spilled off her voice. I felt even guiltier now because of it. I wanted to try harder but I couldn't. I had a huge breakfast yesterday as well.

We were all talking amongst each other when the door slammed open. In strolled Sam, who looked more pissed than ever. "How dare you all come here without a guardians permission?!" He yelled at them all. My hand flies to Liam's and he sends me a worried look.
