Louis had to do some extra work in the bar, his time with Harry was pleasant but it also took some time of his usual schedule, nothing too out of the ordinary but lately Greg's been out so he has been managing the cash as well, after all his boss trusted him enough for that duty. Now Louis wasn't the best at math, but he could do some basic operations with a calculator after all.

When he was finally done with the numbers for the day, he run to his house ready to tell his Nan about his day. It was probably weird for many people how connected they were, but for Louis she was like a mother, and a pretty good one. Her advice was always on point and she was open to listen to Lou talking about almost anything. Even boys if that was the case, and this time Louis did need some honest advice about one boy in particular.

While entering the house everything seemed normal, Louis called his Nan but got no answer. He looked at his clock and it was late, she was probably sleep by now. Luckily for him there was food in the kitchen and tea in the pot, with that he was set for the night.

He watched some Netflix, choose a new show (at least for him) called Once Upon a Time, as Harry had recommended to him earlier, he didn't love it or hate it but did watch a couple of episodes with the boy in mind. When he was already feeling way too tired, he grab a blanket and decided that the couch was a good enough bed... but then he remember he had his contacts on, silly him.

Upstairs and already in his room, he took them off and put on his regular prescription glasses. Louis did a couple cool faces in the mirror, happy that no one was watching him as the faces were completely awful ones.

The boy then went to his own bed, but couldn't sleep as the night was colder than he imagined. He stand up and went to his Nan's room to get some extra blankets, but as soon as he entered the room, he couldn't believe his eyes.

His Nan was in the floor, with tea spilled all over. It looked like she had fainted or something of that matter, he felt like a coward as he didn't stand any closer to her, completely in shocked and feeling like he was the only one to blame about this, how can he didn't find her before?

Louis run to his room and with his mobile in his shaky hand he managed to call 999, they answer and without even noticing an ambulance was in his door. He made the paramedics enter the house and then they took care of the situation. A woman that look like a nurse didn't let Louis inside his Nan's room for a while, and the boy could only feel his eyes filling with tears, if something happened to her, he wouldn't be able to cope with the guilt, why he didn't check on her before?

The nurse approach him a couple times with some stuff he needed to sign and Louis was still in shock, in the best situation they would be able to control her in the house and then all this would vanished, that's what Louis had in his mind, unfortunately... it wasn't like that.

All of the doctors took her in the ambulance, Louis couldn't bear to go in, so he took a cab with a nurse by his side, she keep telling him to keep calm and that the doctors were making his best efforts, that everything was going to be just fine, but Louis had seen 10 seasons of Greys Anatomy, he was not the right person to be fooled by that speech.

When they arrived to the hospital, he was seated on the dreadful waiting room, and his eyes were watery enough to look like glass. One of the doctors told him to remain calm, to call some family members... Louis had nobody in mind, except one person.

He called Harry

He didn't pick up

He called again... and again

And he didn't pick up

He called about 10 times, and Harry didn't pick up.

Don't be stupid, he must be sleeping... he thought, luckily for him, his phone started buzzing in his pocket, it was him.
