Trinity wakes up quickly. She goes to scream for Niall but isn't able to with the lack of air in her lungs. She begins to cry, but knows not to panic. Her dad told her to never do that if she can't breath; it'll only make it worse. She slowly walks out of her room then begins to run when she feels like she can't breath. She runs into Niall's room and pushes at his leg.

"Daddy," she croaks out with tears streaming down her face. "Please wake up." She sees his phone on the table and reaches for it. She quickly unlocks his phone and calls the first number she can think of, Louis. A few seconds go by before a tired sounding Louis answers the phone.

"Hello?"

"Uncle Lou." She says with a sob.

"Trinity? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Louis asks worriedly as he sits up in bed to rub his eyes.

"Uncle Lou, daddy won't wake up. I can't breath." She hears him curse softly and fumbling on his side of the line.

"I'm on my way over Trinity. Sit down on the ground and slowly breath for me, okay? In through your nose and out through your mouth. No gasping for air, and don't hang up either. I'll be there in three minutes." She does as she's told and breathes slowly. "That a girl, baby, slow deep breaths. I'm on my way. Do you want me to call Zayn?" Trinity begins to cry again.

"Baba." Louis nods his head in understanding.

"Got it. Stay on the line, Trinity. Don't you dare hang up." Louis pulls up Zayn's number and prays that he answers the phone.

"Louis, it is four in the morning. Why are you calling me? Why are you even awake?"

"Bitch me out later Zayn. We have a problem." Zayn sighs and sits up in bed.

"What's so important that you're calling me at four in the morning?"

"It's Trinity. She's having another attack; she can't get Niall awake. She called me crying; I'm on my way over there now. Well, I'm here but she wanted me to call you. Get here as soon as you can." He hangs up the phone, uses the house key Niall gave him, and runs into the living area. "Trinity?!" He hears running and meets her halfway on the stairs. He picks her up and rubs her back as they walk into Trinity's room again. She releases another sob, and Louis sets her down on the bed. He grabs her inhaler from the top of her closet and walks over to her. "Here love, you remember how to work this, right?" She nods and takes the inhaler from her uncle's hands. Once she's done she hands it back to him and she smiles slightly. "Better?" She nods. "Good. Zayn is on his way now." He bends down and picks her up. He pulls her closer to his chest and kisses the side of her head. "Thank God you called me. I really need to talk to your dad about keeping your things closer to you. What if you couldn't reach the phone? What if no one answered?" He asks himself. He shakes his head of the thoughts and holds Trinity against his chest, waiting until her breathing evens out a little more. They stay in that position for a whilst, and they soon hears footsteps running up the stairs.

"Trinity?" Trinity struggles to get out of Louis' arms and rushes out of the room.

"Baba!" Zayn walks into the room a few seconds later with Trinity on his hip, slowly falling asleep again.

"We need to talk to Niall." Louis nods in agreement. Zayn sets the four year old on the bed and tucks her in before him and Louis walk over to Niall's room. Once in the room, Louis picks up a stranded pillow from the floor and whacks Niall upside the head. Niall sits up quickly and looks between his two best mates.

"What are ye doin 'ere so early?" Zayn shakes his head in disappointment.

"Trinity was in here about ten minutes ago; she was having an attack. You wouldn't wake up so she called Louis. She was here suffering from an asthma attack when she was at the bottom of your bed. Niall, I get it's early in the morning, but you need to learn how to become a light sleeper with Trinity's asthma acting up the way it is." Niall jumps out of bed and runs to his daughter's room to find her asleep with a slight rugged breathing pattern.
