I barged into the hospital seeing Liam and Harry with Claire in Harry's hand.
I ran to Liam and he looked at me, giving me a huge hug.
"Where is he?" I asked, my mind racing with worry.
Niall put a comforting arm around my waist and Liam sighed, scratching the back of his head.
"They're running a few tests on him to see what the cause of his breathing problem was because it didn't come from his heart condition." He said solemnly.
I looked at him in shock and shook my head.
"Wait.." I said, trying to process everything.
Niall sighed and hugged my waist from behind, kissing my shoulder.
"When did he go in?" Niall asked, his voiced hushed.
Liam opened his mouth to say something, but a doctor walked up to us.
"Who brought Liam Horan here?" The doctor asked.
Liam and Harry stood up and Liam stuttered.
"Th-these are his parents.." He said motioning to us.
The doctor looked at me and Niall and he began to walk to a private area, beckoning me and Niall to follow him.
We did as we were told, me holding onto Niall's hand hoping the news would be good, but I knew the chances of that.
"It seems," The doctor began, searching for the right words to say, "As thought Liam has a tumor in his left lung, causing breathing to be a problem."
I gasped, putting my hands over my mouth and Niall had his jaw open in shock.
"Wh-what?" He asked.
The doctor sighed, looking at a clipboard he was carrying in his hand.
"This tumor is carrying... cancer cells." The doctor said even more solemnly.
I wanted to fall to my knees and cry until I couldn't cry anymore, but the doctor wasn't done.
"You're his mother, correct?" The doctor asked.
I nodded and looked at Niall, a tear or two welling in his eyes.
"Well ma'am, we need to get you tested as well." He said concerned.
"Wait.. What? Why?" I asked, concerned and confused.
"The tumor seemed to have developed due to carrier of the original carrier, in this case, the only possibilities are his twin sister, who we ran tests on already and she's clean, or his mother."
I felt my body shake in fear.
I gave my son cancer? That's impossible I would've noticed it.
"Sure doctor." I said, trying to keep my composure.
Niall kissed my cheek and whispered in my ear.
"I'll wait out here, okay?"
The doctor shook his head.
"You can come to Mister...?"
"Horan." Niall said.
We walked in with the doctor and Niall held my hand.
The doctor had run a few tests and Niall was by my bedside, holding my hand, tracing his thumb over my knuckles in comfort.
I may have given my son cancer and I myself may have cancer.
I feel terrible.
"Niall..." I whispered.
Niall looked at me, his eyes looking both worried and afraid.
I kissed him softly and he kissed back, but he stopped, pulling away.
"Sam, you're going to be fine, Liam is going to be fine." He said, more to himself than me.
I looked at the roof of the white room I was in and bit my lip.
Maybe Niall was right, I'll be fine and Liam would get through this.
The doctor walked in, holding a set of X-Rays and his face had no expression.
"So, what's going on?" Niall asked, shifting in his seat.
The doctor turned to Niall and they shut he lights, placing the X-Ray on the glass.
"Do you see that mass there?" The doctor said pointing to what looked like my lung.
I nodded and so did Niall.
"She has a larger mass then your son has... It may be more severe, but the signs haven't revealed themselves. Until then, you may have to take a lot of Chemotherapy Mrs. Horan." He said looking at me.
I was shocked, I didn't care he got my name wrong, but I would have to take Chemo.
I have cancer, my son has cancer, what is all of this?
I sighed and the doctor nodded rather awkwardly.
"I'll leave you two to simmer on the news."
He walked out and I hugged Niall, sobbing into his shoulder.
"You're okay..." Niall said, hugging me to his chest.
I looked up at him and shook my head.
"What if I'm not?" I said, sobs breaking the sentence.
He shook his head.
"You are going to live through it and when you're done with cancer, we're going out on a date and we're bringing HEALTHY Liam and Claire too... We're going to focus on the positive, That's a promise." Niall said.
A part of me knew he was trying to cheer me up, the other hoped that he could keep that promise...
