Only Time Will Tell...

Emily...

Liam put his arms around her. "He's going to be okay." Liam said, brushing her hair.

"What about Zayn?" Louis asked.

"Just a few bruises and scratches, and a broken arm. Other than that, he's fine." the nurse said, smiling.

Just then, the doctor came out. "He...barely made it. But he's going to be ok-"

Everyone cheered.

"Did he break anything?" Niall asked.

"Yea...um...his neck, his wrist, and his ankle," the doctor said.

Ashton teared up again, "Oh, my boy!"

Everyone walked in to see Cooper lying in the bed.

"Hey, beautiful!" Ashton said.

"I'm still prettier than Shawn..." Cooper said.

"That's my boy," Zayn said, coming in.

"Zayn! You're okay," Leah said, hugging him.

"Other than a broken arm, I'm fine!" Zayn said.

"Hey, dad!" Cooper said to Liam.

Zayn just stood there, upset.

"Hey, bud!" Liam smiled back.

The doctor came in. "He will have to stay here a couple more" weeks."

"Ok"

2 weeks later

“Why do you have to go on tour already?" Leah moaned, while helping Niall pack.

"You are coming with us!" Niall said happily.

"I can't. Who will watch the twins?"

"Your mum. I've already asked her."

"So I guess I'm going!" Leah said, getting another suitcase.

Cooper hobbled in. "Hey guys!" he said.

"Hey, baby!" Leah said, giving him a hug, trying not to hurt him with his casts.

"I was wondering if I could go with you all on tour?" Cooper asked.

"That's up to your mum and dad, but we would love for you to go!" Niall said.

"Ok, well, I don't want to stay with grandma. She scares me!" Cooper said.

"Yea, she is a little freaky!" Niall laughed. Leah nudged him in the elbow.

Cooper hobbled out. "Bye, guys!"

He walked in to Ashton and Liam packing their suitcases too.

"Cooper, you shouldn't be walking!" Liam said.

"Well, I was wonderin if I could go on tour with you?" Cooper asked. He gave them the puppy-dog face. 

“OMG, he gave us the puppy dog face!” Liam said.

“Well, you’re hurt and in a cramped tour bus, it would be hard.” Ashton said.

“C’mon,” Liam said, giving Ashton the puppy-dog face.

“Well, I don’t know…” Ashton said.

“Well, what do you think of this puppy-dog face…” Liam said, running out. He came back with a yorkie puppy. The puppy looked at Ashton with an adorkable face.

“Ah, ok. Cooper can come,” Ashton said.

“Yay! What will we name it?” Cooper asked.

“It’s a girl, and how bout Emily?” Liam said.

Ashton started crying. “I love it!” she cried.

“Ah, babe, what’s wrong?” Liam asked, rubbing Ashton’s back.

“Well, I’ve never told anyone this, but I had a little sister who died when I was seven. Her name was Emily…” Ashton said, wiping her eyes.
