Chapter 5

Harry's POV

"Where am I?" I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar room. The walls were white, the space was big, and the smell was weird. What? Am I in the hospital? No. This can't be. Louis wouldn't do that!

"You wouldn't Lou!" I practically screamed at his face.

"Relax. You're not in a hospital. I just checked us in another hotel so the boys won't see you like that" Louis assured me.

Oh how thoughtful of him.

"But they would wonder why we didn't go back at our hotel room" I looked at him worried.

"I told the boys we were out clubbing and we were too tired to go back to the hotel so we decided to get a hotel room near the club"

"You're such a smart ass"

"I'll take that as a compliment!" Louis chuckled.

"Oh. So what happened to me? Last thing I remember was me waiting for you at the car park"

"You passed out but no one saw you. Now please get up, we need to have you see the doctor and we also have to be back at the hotel by afternoon"

"Okay" I smile at him. "And Lou, thank you for being here"

I got up and washed my face then brushed my teeth. I didn't have clothes with me so I wore my clothes from yesterday. Weird. I know. I have no choice anyway. I'm very thankful I have Louis with me. He understands me and I know I can trust him. He's always here whenever I need him. He has a very kind heart. Eleanor and him are lucky to have each other.

"Ready to go haz?" I nodded and went out after him.

The hospital wasn't that far, it was just a 10-minute ride. As we entered the hospital my stomach started to have butterflies. I'm nervous. I'm nervous of what the doctor could tell me. I'm nervous because maybe I won't get any good news today.

"Haz?" Louis looked at me with concern.

"Yeah?" I looked at him with a small smile on my face.

"When are you going to tell them? You know, your family and the lads?"

I was caught off guard by his question. It took me seconds to pull myself back together. "I-I don't k-know" I stuttered.

"You have to tell them soon. You can't just keep this to the both of us" Louis shook his head.

"I can't do it Lou you know how that will affect my family" Yes I'm a pussy when it comes to this situation, my situation.

"Haz. You have to do it" I am so confused right now, a little pissed off by Louis. He keeps on pushing me to tell them and he knows I don't have the guts to do it.

"What do I say? 'Hey Mum! I have Leukemia and it's been 6 months since I find out! Don't worry I'm feeling great now!' it's so hard Lou! I know they will be hurt and I can't see my love ones hurt and worry because of me" tears formed in my eyes as I picture my mum's face if she finds out.

Yes, I have Leukemia for about 6 months now. I kept the pain all to myself but Louis found out and I needed someone to be here for me anyway. I don't want the news to spread. The fans, my family, and the boys to worry and feel hurt because of me. I can't add more pain to what I'm feeling already. I had therapy there in UK and I thought I was okay, I thought. Well, I guess we'll just have to find out then.

"Sorry Haz. I didn't mean to push you but you know it will hurt them more if you didn't tell them sooner or later"

Louis' right. I need to tell them, they will feel really bad if I didn't tell them. "You're right. Sorry Lou. I will tell them but only mum and Gemma, I'll talk to them tomorrow. I will tell the boys soon just until I'm ready" Louis nodded and we continued to walk to Dr. Joseph Smith's clinic.
