"I don't understand, he should have woken up already," Harry sighed as he looked at the doctor who was looking over Louis' vitals, he too really confused as to why he wasn't waking up.

"The medication has worn off, I guess we just have to wait for him to wake up himself. It happens all the time, some people just don't wake up right away. But, he's okay, everything is up to standards."

Harry nodded. "Thank you doctor." He smiled and told Harry that he would be back later that day to run a few tests and to check on the babies.

Once the doctor left Harry grabbed Louis' hand and kissed his knuckled. "Baby? I hope you're listening. I know you can pull through this, I know you can." Harry wiped away a few tears as he continued to talk about all the good times, but he didn't mean to start yelling at himself for all the trouble that he put Louis through.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry Lou. Fuck please just wake up!" He yelled as he gripped his newly cut hair as he rocked back and forth on the floor. Liam and Zayn had found him, they couldn't calm him down so they had to find a nurse who sighed and disappeared only to return with a syringe with a sedative.

"No, no please don't leave me Louis. I'm sorry!" He kept repeating sorry over and over again until Liam and Zayn managed to restrain him enough for the nurse to get the needle into his arm. They carried him to the recliner in the corner of the room and got him comfortable.

"I'm getting off in twenty minutes, I'll let my replacement know what happened and to check up on him periodically." She left quietly leaving Liam and Zayn to themselves.

They just looked at the two of them and then looked to each other. "They are two crazy people in love with each other no matter what happens." Zayn frowned. "Let's just hope when Louis wakes up he feels the same way."

"He's never stopped loving him. Couldn't you tell? Even with all the hate that he had, he always wanted Harry. He'll always want him," Liam added in, making Zayn nod in agreement.

"I just hope that when Louis does wake up he doesn't just jump back into things," Zayn said, earning a nod of agreement from Liam.

"He's not that stupid Zayn."

"I know, but with the hormones and being on medication anything could happen."

It had been two months since Louis and Harry had started seeing each other. It had been vacation when Harry asked the question that made Louis the happiest he's ever could have been.

"So, I guess the tears is a yes?" Harry asked, his heart racing from even trying to ask him.

Louis nodded and kissed Harry's lips softly. "I'd love to be your boyfriend, Harry."

"Zaynie! Zaynie!" Louis yelled Monday morning as he ran through the hall to get to him.

Zayn just groaned, it was too early for all the yelling, but he let it slide because it was Louis. "Yes, Lou. What's got you all giddy this early?"

"He asked me, he finally asked me to be his boyfriend."

"Well?" Zayn asked after Louis just rocked back and forth on his heels as he smiled at Zayn.

"Well, what?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

Zayn couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Did you say yes?"

"Of course I said yes!" He exclaimed, a little bit too loud for Zayn's liking, but he still couldn't help but be happy for his best friend.

Zayn smiled at him. "Congratulations Lou. I knew you'd find someone that would accept your weirdness."

Louis pouted. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"You know I'm only joking Lou."

Louis nodded, and let his pout disappear. "We should do a double date! It would be so much fun."

Zayn shook his head. "No."

"Why not?" His pout came back, and Louis knew that Zayn couldn't resist the puppy dog eyes he always gives him. Since Liam figured that out, he's managed to get by on a lot of things, but that would be a whole nother story in itself.

Harry had came over and chuckled. "Alright, that look is only used when you want something. So, what is it that you are trying to get from Zayn?"

Louis turned around and smiled at his boyfriend. Boyfriend, he thought, he loved saying that all the time. He liked that it was a thing for him to say. "I was trying to get Zayn to agree on a double date."

Harry shook his head. "Why don't we do that when we actually have been officially together for more than two weeks?"

Louis sighed, but agreed with Harry. "Fine, I'd like that." He turned around to Zayn, who also nodded in agreement. Louis kissed Zayn's cheek before he pecked Harry's lips. "Thank you."

Harry and Zayn both smiled at Louis before they all had to go their separate ways when the bell rang.

**

"Wha-what happened?" Harry asked as he finally came to after the sedative wore off.

"You started to freak out and screamed because you realized just how terrible you had been to Louis. The only way they could calm you down was to shoot you with a sedative. You've been out for about four hours now. No changes with Louis by the way," Zayn asked after he had finished chewing his sandwich. He threw a bag to Harry, "I got you something, eat up. The doctor told me to make sure you eat and drink cause the side effect of that medication is dehydration and nausea if you don't eat after you wake up."

Harry nodded and stretched before he sat up. He grabbed the water bottle out of the bag and the turkey sandwich, putting the bag to the side. "Thank you."

Zayn just nodded. "Ohh, they did an ultrasound of the babies while you were out. Perfectly healthy and I have new pictures. But, you need to eat before I show them to you cause I know you won't eat while you look at them."

Harry pouted. "Fine." It took him about twenty minutes to eat since he didn't' want to eat too fast and get sick. But, once he was finished Zayn handed him the picture of his three little ones. He smiled down at the photo, there were three letters- a, b, and c- on the photo. The sexes weren't on the photo, as he was waiting for Louis to wake up or even until Louis gives birth. He won't care, he will still love them either way.

"I know this is like far away, but what would you say if we ask you and Liam to be godfathers to two of them?" He looked up and watched Zayn's face turn from neutral to his eyes becoming glassy.

"Really?" He asked, making sure he wasn't dreaming this.

Harry nodded. "You've known Louis basically your whole lives, I wouldn't want to ask anyone else."

Zayn nodded and went over to Harry to hug him. "I may dislike you right now, but you're getting there. Thank you so much."

Harry hugged him back. "It's what Louis would want to."

Zayn pulled back and couldn't help but agree. "He really would."

**

Louis pouted. "I wanted to be the one who asked Zayn and Liam to be godparents." He was looking as the two of them were just watching his lifeless body. He just wanted to wake up, but he didn't even know if he wanted to. He was waiting to see what else will happen. He wanted to wake up, but he decided he'll wait just a bit longer.

He wanted to make sure that what he was choosing would be the best option.
